Abstract: An electronic device, a controlling method thereof, and a non-transitory storage medium are provided. The method includes displaying a first user interface of a first mode in a first area of a touch screen of the electronic device and one or more snapshots of a second user interface of a second mode in a second area of the touch screen while the electronic device is in the first mode. The method also includes detecting a first sliding gesture on or near the touch screen. The method further includes switching the electronic device from the first mode into the second mode if the first sliding gesture complies with a predetermined switching condition.

Abstract: A display method, an electronic device, and a non-transitory storage medium are provided. The display method includes following steps. A picture having a first transparency is displayed on a touch screen of the electronic device. A touch operation on the touch screen is detected. A second transparency of the picture is determined according to a position of the touch operation, where the second transparency is higher than the first transparency. The picture having the second transparency and a screen image covered by the picture are simultaneously displayed on the touch screen.

Abstract: A graphic user interface management system displays all shortcuts on surfaces of a first three-dimensional (3D) graph displayed on a desktop background. The first 3D graph streams objects during rotating. On projection paths of the objects, a first preset number of objects forms system time to be displayed on the desktop background, a second preset number of objects forms a process wall, which displays running processes of shortcuts invoked by a user from the first 3D graph. The shortcuts dragged from the first 3D graph to other positions of the desktop background are represented by second 3D graphs. A rotation speed and direction of the first 3D graph change according to an operation speed and direction on the first 3D. The system further performs corresponding desktop display actions according to manipulated operations on the first 3D graph, the process wall, or the second 3D graphs.

Abstract: A device for signal switching and processing. A plurality of control signal output terminals are connected to a plurality of computers. A control signal input terminal receives control signals from an input device. A signal processor determines a control signal output terminal to output the control signals, thus, the User interface (UI) of a first computer connected thereto is controlled. A plurality of video input terminals connect to the computers. A video output terminal is connected to a display. An image processor receives UI screens of the computers from the video input terminals, integrates the UI screens into an integrated screen, and outputs the integrated screen to the display, thus, current UI screens of the computers reflecting the control signals are simultaneously displayed.

Abstract: A communication system. The system includes a transmission bus, a plurality of circuit apparatuses, and a management device. Each circuit apparatus comprises an external integrated circuit and a switch circuit. Each external integrated circuit is coupled to the transmission bus via the corresponding switch circuit. The management device monitors the status of the transmission bus and, when the status is determined as abnormal, switches at least one of the switch circuits to isolate at least one corresponding external integrated circuit from the transmission bus.

Abstract: A blade server system for auto-assigning communication addresses. The Blade server system comprises a board and a slot module. The board has a plurality of slots, and each of the slots has a unique slot ID. When the slot module is inserted in one of the slots, the slot module generates a communication address according to the slot ID of an occupied slot, and then transmits the communication address to other slot modules inserted in other slots. Hence, other slot modules can communicate with the slot module via the communication address.

Abstract: A management system of blade server is described. The system comprises at least two management blades and a middle interface. The two management blades become one master management blade to control directly the system and a slave management blade prepared to control the system when the system is turned on. The middle interface installs server blades, switch blades and the management blades thereon according to the actual request. A COM port is a main interconnecting line between the management blades and a LAN port is an auxiliary interconnecting line. The system can directly exchange the master management blade and the slave management blades by way of application software. The slave management blade is promoted to master management blade immediately when the original master management blade fails to work.
