Publication number: 20160212684Abstract: There is provided a sensor network information collection mechanism in which, after a UE has decided to become part of an information collecting operation for collecting information from a local sensor network, a signaling transmitted from a managing node of a local sensor network is received and processed. A communication network control element is informed about the willingness to become an information collector by sending a report message comprising measurement results derived from the signaling received from the managing node of the local sensor network. When receiving a gateway allocation message indicating that the UE is determined to be a gateway element to the local sensor network, the information collecting operation is started wherein sensor nodes of the local sensor network are woke up, and a traffic flow direction in the local sensor network is set in accordance with the managing node identity to which the UE is accessed.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2016Publication date: July 21, 2016Inventors: Zhenhong Li, Haifeng Wang, Jun Xia, Yi Miao

Publication number: 20130117313Abstract: The described implementations relate to an access control framework for a database system. One implementation can receive, from a user, a request for data that identifies a resource, such as a view that obtains data from a database. The implementation can check the identity of the user to identify user roles associated with the user. The implementation can identify an access policy that is associated with the resource, and a rule that is associated with the access policy and applies to the user roles associated with the user. The rule can be applied to the request for data using attributes of the access policy. For example, if the request for data is a query on a view, the query can be rewritten to apply the rule.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2011Publication date: May 9, 2013Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Yi Miao, Mahmood G.

Publication number: 20110320433Abstract: Described is associating metadata with different sources of data (e.g., database tables) that allows a single view of data from the sources to be created. An administrator creates baseviews corresponding to database tables and associates metadata with the baseviews, including primary key metadata for the baseviews and meta-tags for one or more of the columns of each baseview. A user selects fields (corresponding to table columns) from a starting baseview, along with fields from any other baseview that has metadata that matches the starting baseview's metadata. A join mechanism automatically creates the view if a metadata match is detected.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2010Publication date: December 29, 2011Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Imran Mohiuddin, Mahmood Gulam Qadir, Yi Miao, Bryan Jason Dove, Jonathan Alan Handler, Craig F.

Patent number: 7920662Abstract: Training sequence interference in an equalizer-based receiver in a time-division duplex (TDD) communication system can be avoided without using interference cancellation, by providing to the equalizer both the desired data portion of the received signal, and a portion of the training sequence that is adjacent the desired data portion and has a length commensurate with the delay spread associated with the training sequence interference. The portion of the equalizer output that corresponds to the adjacent training sequence portion can be discarded while retaining the desired equalized data.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2007Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignee: ST-Ericsson SAInventors: Linda Zhu, Yi-Miao Zhao, Ser-wah Oh
