Publication number: 20230108421Abstract: Methods and systems that allow a user to see the people or groups who have access to files that are maintained by a plurality of cloud content sharing services. In particular, the user may see what specific party has access to each particular file or directory, regardless of multiple cloud content sharing services involved. Moreover, a user interface and exposed application program interface allows the user to manipulate the permissions, e.g., granting access, to another person or group, to a file or directory. The user interface may also allow the user to terminate access to the file or directory for a person or group. The user's action to change a permission may be effected independently of the particular cloud content sharing service.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2022Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventors: Steven J. Birkel, Rita H. Wouhaybi, Timothy Verrall, Mrigank Shekhar

Patent number: 5038098Abstract: A device for simultaneously displaying unrelated signals processes the signals separately prior to inputting them to a multiplexer. Under control of a microprocessor the multiplexer. Under control of a microprocessor the multiplexer switches between the processed signals to alternately pass the signals to the deflection circuits of an X-X display device at a rate which does not interfere with other frequencies used in the environment where the device is used.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 1988Date of Patent: August 6, 1991Assignee: Tektronix, Inc.Inventors: Steven J.

Patent number: 4752868Abstract: A remote master-slave control method uses a single command line from a master instrument to a slave instrument. Commands executed at the master instrument are transmitted to the slave instrument via the single command line, and are in turn executed by the slave instrument only if an operator controlled input is "on" at the time of receipt of the command. For instrument setups a recall command from the master instrument will be executed by the slave instrument if the operator controlled input was "on" at the time the instrument setup was stored.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 1986Date of Patent: June 21, 1988Assignee: Tektronix, Inc.Inventors: Dan H. Nicholas, Steven J. Birkel
