Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing proxy autoconfiguration for a multihomed client. A client browser may employ a combined autoconfiguration module to split traffic based on a destination address of the traffic. The traffic may be split among at least two proxy servers. A proxy configuration manager may be employed to receive configuration information associated with each of the proxy servers. The proxy configuration manager enables the combined autoconfiguration module to be created based, in part, on the received configuration information. The proxy configuration manager further enables the client browser to split the traffic, based at least in part on the destination address.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are directed to managing access to an enterprise resource over a virtual private network by employing a dynamic policy. A client device is configured to log into a network device. The network device receives information about the client device, including information about its configuration and environment. Based, in part, on received information a policy for access is applied to the client device. For example, in one embodiment, the policy may allow only email access from a public kiosk client device, but full intranet access from an enterprise configured client device. The policy may further enable a restriction for the client device that may restrict, for example, what documents may be saved by the client device. In one embodiment, the restriction is enabled using a virtual sandbox.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are directed to managing a policy-based access to a resource employing dynamic client integrity checking. The system may include a client device configured to log into a server. The server may provide a component to the client device. The component is configured to provide integrity information about the client device back to the server. The component may provide updates to the integrity information at a pre-determined schedule, thereby monitoring changes to the integrity of the client device during a connected session. Based, in part, on the received integrity information a policy for access is applied to the client device. In one embodiment, access may be increased to the resource. In another embodiment, the policy may deny access to the resource, if it is determined that the client device has an enabled network sniffer, an improperly configured antivirus application, or the like.

Abstract: A pixel structure and an edge-emitter field-emission display device having a first substrate or backplate including a cathode disposed thereon and a second substrate or faceplate including an anode disposed thereon, wherein the anode on the second substrate or faceplate has a light emitting film. The cathode may define a first bus of an X-Y bus array and the anode may define a second bus of the X-Y bus array. Alternatively, the first substrate may further include a control gate disposed thereon, wherein the cathode defines a first bus of an X-Y bus array and the control gate defines a second bus of the X-Y bus array.

Abstract: New, hybrid vacuum electron devices are proposed, in which the electrons are extracted from the nanotube into vacuum. Each nanotube is either placed on the cathode electrode individually or grown normally to the cathode plane. Arrays of the nanotubes are also considered to multiply the output current. Two- and three-terminal device configurations are discussed. In all the cases considered, the device designs are such that both input and output capacitances are extremely low, while the efficiency of the electron extraction into vacuum is very high, so that the estimated operational frequencies are expected to be in a tera-hertz range. New vacuum triode structure with ballistic electron propagation along the nanotube is also considered.

Abstract: A field emission display comprises an anode comprising a matrix of pixels and a cathode comprising an insulating layer defining a plurality of wells having a conductor therein. A first conductive layer forms a plurality of conductive pads, each of the conductive pads corresponding to one of the wells. A plurality of nanostructures are electrically coupled to the conductive pads. A second conductive layer is formed over the insulating layer and provides a plurality of gate electrodes. When a potential between the conductive pads and gate electrodes exceeds a threshold voltage, the nanostructures emit electrons that impinge on the pixels.

Abstract: A Reflective Field Emission Display (FED) system using reflective field emission pixel elements is disclosed. In the FED system disclosed, each pixel elements is composed of at least one edge emitter that is operable to emit electrons and at least one reflector that is operable to first attract and then reflect the emitted electrons onto a transparent layer that is operable to attract the reflected electrons. The transparent anode layer is oppositely positioned with respect to the cathode or emitter edge. In a one aspect of the invention, a phosphor layer interposed between the transparent layer and the pixel element produces a light photon as reflected electrons are attracted to the transparent layer. In another aspect of the invention, a plurality of phosphor layers are applied to the transparent layer to produce a color display when reflected electrons are attracted to the transparent layer.

In the FED system, a plurality of reflective edge emission pixel elements are arranged in a matrix of N rows and M columns, the pixel elements contain an edge emitter that is operable to emit electrons and a reflector that is operable to extract and laterally reflect emitted electrons. A collector layer, laterally disposed from said reflector layer is operable to attract the reflected electrons. Deposited on the collector layer is a phosphor layer that emits a photon of a known wavelength when activated by an attracted electron. A transparent layer that is oppositely positioned with respect to the pixel elements is operable to attract reflected electrons and prevent reflected electrons from striking the phosphor layer. Color displays are further contemplated by incorporating individually controlled sub-pixel elements in each of the pixel elements.
