Abstract: A contextual awareness system for an aircraft and a method from controlling the same are provided. The aircraft, for example, may include, but is not limited to, a touch screen display, a memory configured to store rules defining a relationship between a plurality of data fields, and a processor configured to determine when a data field displayed on the touch screen display is selected, determine at least one data field which is related to the selected data field based upon the rules defining the relationship between a plurality of data fields, generate display data for the touch screen display, the display data comprising a virtual keyboard and a contextual awareness display area, the contextual awareness display area displaying the selected field and the at least one data field which is related to the selected data, and update the selected data field based upon input from the virtual keyboard.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for installing applications on a mobile device at first device initialization. An installation client communicates with a management server at an initial start-up state of a mobile device. The management server identifies a set of applications that are available for installation on the client device, and provides the installation files to the device. This initialization-installation of application programs allows the user to have the experience of having access to pre-installed applications at device initialization, while allowing application providers and mobile network operators real-time management of application programs being offered, without requiring pre-installing a bundle of applications on a device prior to device distribution.

An installation client communicates with a management server at an initial start-up state of a mobile device. The management server identifies a set of applications that are available for installation on the client device, and provides the installation files to the device. The management server selects certain client devices for certain applications based on user segments, allowing customization of applications according to user data. This initialization-installation of application programs allows the user to have the experience of having access to pre-installed applications at device initialization, while allowing application providers and mobile network operators real-time management of application programs being offered, without requiring pre-installing a bundle of applications on a device prior to device distribution.

Abstract: A novel system, method and computer program product for accessing digital media files via a mobile phone device having a user interface adapted for initiating search requests for digital content associated with a searched category. The method for providing digital content for user search and selection via his/her mobile phone comprises receiving metadata content from one or more content providers equipped to transmit digital content to a user's digital phone, aggregating the received metadata content including heterogeneous content types, and generating a catalogue representing the aggregated metadata content. A further step includes accessing the aggregated metadata content catalogue and retrieving catalogued metadata in accordance with a received user request.

Abstract: A method is provided for testing semiconductor devices. In accordance with the method, a first usage temperature T1 is obtained which represents the maximum or minimum temperature to which a semiconductor device will be exposed during its first use by a customer. The semiconductor device is then tested for defects while ramping the temperature to which the device is exposed from a first temperature T0 to the temperature T1.

Abstract: An improved reverberation processor includes a technique for changing environmental parameters without causing disturbing audio artifacts. The technique includes the steps of sequentially changing the read pointers of different delay lines. Additionally, for each delay line a level control variable is ramped down prior to changing the read pointer and then ramped back up. The reverberation processor also provides means for producing and controlling a repeating echo in the reverberation decay, as well as adjusting the diffusion (or echo density) of the reverberation.

Abstract: A reverberation processor is provided comprising a plurality of delay lines implemented in delay line memory, and hardware operable to introduce an echo effect into the reverberation decay and to provide a control parameter to control salience of the echo effect. The delay lines are operable to generate a reverberation decay in response to an input signal. In one embodiment, an increase and a decrease in the salience of the echo effect is dependent upon the control parameter. The control parameter may provide continuous control over the salience of the echo effect and the echo effect may be embedded within the reverberation decay. In one embodiment, a range of delay lengths across which the plurality of delay lines is distributed is reduced to produce a repeating echo effect. The invention extends to method of and software product for providing reverberation.
