Abstract: Keypads are described which are row similar to a standard telephone keypad though they have a different number of columns of base-letter-assigned keys than the standard to which they are related. Smooth sequences of such row-similar keypads are exhibited. Keypads which support both row-similar telephone keypad layouts and reduced layouts corresponding to typewriter standards are disclosed. It is shown how to combine various structural and statistical limitations with row similarity. It is also shown how to embed a row-similar digit layout in row-similar base letter layouts, and how to beneficially provide negative space between keys, construct pseudo standards, and extend or reduce desktop standards or pseudo standards while obeying structural or typability constraints.

Abstract: The grouping unit assigns an m-digit value expressed by an n-ary notation to each input candidate character one-for-one to classify the respective input candidate characters into n groups on a basis of each of the m digits. The group displaying unit causes the display device to display, in the lump on a group basis, the input candidate characters classified on a digit basis. Among n selection keys corresponding to the respective groups, the input device has one key operated by a user to output information indicating which selection key is operated (information indicative of a selection key operated) to the character structuring unit. The character structuring unit determines a character according to information input from the input device.

Abstract: A keyboard for a mobile device 400 having a processor 618 for interpreting signals comprises a plurality of keys 410-424 and corresponding indicia including keys associated with alphabetic characters corresponding to an array of letters A-Z. The keys 410-419 that are associated with alphabetic characters number fewer than twenty-six and correspond to one of a QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, or DVORAK key arrangement. Each of the plurality of keys 410-424 have multiple input surfaces and are arranged in an array of rows and columns that include a first outer column, at least one middle column, and a last outer column. The first and last columns of keys are operable to input at least three different signals to a processor 618 of a mobile device 400 depending upon what input surface of the key 410-424 is pressed. A middle column of keys is operable to input at least five different signals to a processor 618 depending on what input surface of the key 410-424 is pressed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for configuring and operating a white-box cipher is disclosed. In one implementation, the system employs a method for configuring pseudorandom data derived from a key to perform key-scheduling functionality associated with rounds of the cipher. Additionally, the system employs a method for generating white-box executable code, wherein the code hides the pseudorandom data by incorporating it into mathematical operations performed during execution of the rounds. Accordingly, the cipher is suited for white-box applications managing digital rights, such as decoding audio, video and other content.

Abstract: We discovered that a) a single key can support a multiplicity of ordered groups, b) only a subset of each group needs to be visually represented on the face of a key, c) either multi-tap or predictive methods, or both, can be used to input members of each of the groups, and d) auxiliary keys are a convenient, effective and user-discoverable method to select ordered groups, and to perform the multi-tap function. The objects of: limiting multi-tap depth, reducing keystrokes per symbol, unifying focus, increasing discoverability, graduated discoverability, power, compact presentation, and seamless integration of multi-tap and predictive text methods, can all be achieved by exploiting these discoveries.

Abstract: A remote control (3, 4) for controlling source devices (PC, DVD, RADIO, MP3, TV1, TV2) and playback devices (B1, B2, TV1, TV2, M) sends a command document (DOC) containing a control command (SB) in the form of text to the source device (PC, DVD, RADIO, MP3, TV1, TV2) or playback device (B1, B2, TV1, TV2, M) to be controlled, with the result that a user-friendly matching of the control commands (SB) and a decoding of control commands (SB) is rendered possible in a plurality of devices.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing Unicode support in legacy operating systems are provided. With the apparatus and method, a focus hook module, keyboard hook module, and keystroke conversion module are registered with the legacy operating system. The focus hook module determines the currently active application and whether the currently active application is Unicode capable. The keyboard hook module receives keyboard events from an input interface and sends those keyboard events to the keystroke conversion module. The keystroke conversion module converts the keyboard events into Unicode characters which are sent back to the keyboard hook module. The keyboard hook module then stores the Unicode characters in a temporary storage memory, e.g., the clipboard. The keyboard hook module then sends a command to the application to paste the contents of the temporary storage memory to the currently active application.

Abstract: A balance with a wind guard moved by a motor whereby the position of the moveable walls of the guard are monitored by a sensor. An electronic memory is provided for the desired end position of the moveable wall element. The desired end position of the removable walls can be stored in this memory in a learning phase and when the walls are opened by the motor, they are opened only up to a preselected position. This minimizes the time for opening and closing the weighing area and diminishes exposure to air turbulence within the weighing area. This intuitively and flexibly assigns wall elements to user keys.

Abstract: A method is disclosed of modifying and/or extending the command set (READ, WRITE) of a smart card. Use is made of the attribute tables (100, 200, 300) associated with certain files and with the commands of the existing command set to modify the functions of the commands. Thus, non-standard functions may be implemented without the need to use additional, i.e. non-standard instructions.
