  • Electronic device and method for adjusting volume
    Patent number: 9450554
    Abstract: An electronic device and volume adjusting method detect ambient light and generate corresponding intensity signals via a sensor. Programs in a storage device, executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to receive and sample light intensity signals and determine whether the ambient light level is changing. Time passing is counted if the ambient light level is changing, until the ambient light level stops changing. The counting of time stops when ambient light level stops changing and the counted time period is compared with a preset time period, a longer time period causes a volume adjusting command to be sent to a playback output device.

  • BIG DATA SOURCING SIMULATOR
    Publication number: 20160110735
    Abstract: A simulator is configured to simulate the fulfillment of orders by nodes. Each node has an inventory of products and is capable of shipping the products to destinations in response to receipt of a corresponding order. The simulator divides the nodes into groups and assigns a different priority to each group based on input provided by a user to the simulator to generate an ordered sequence of priorities. The simulator maintains safety stock data corresponding to each node that indicates minimum quantities of the products required to be present at the corresponding node. The simulator selects a current priority of the sequence and next simulates a first group among the groups having the current priority fulfilling the orders for a given product among the products while a quantity of the given product at each of the nodes in the first group is below the minimum quantity in the corresponding safety stock data.
