| 20110173242 | AUTOMATIC PROMPT FOR INPUT DATA ON A CALCULATOR - A calculator comprises a processor and a keyboard coupled to the processor. The keyboard comprises a calculation key that causes a calculation to be performed on input data. The calculator also comprises a display coupled to the processor. When the calculation key is pressed, the processor determines whether the input data has already been entered. If the input data has not already been input, the processor prompts a user of the calculator to enter the input data via the keyboard by displaying an alphanumeric description of the input data required for the calculation. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110170145 | Secure Document Creation with a Multi-Function Apparatus - In a method of creating a secure document with a multi-function apparatus, identity information of a user is obtained. The identity information is converted into a security feature, which is created to enable the user's identity information to be retrievable directly from the security feature. In addition, the security feature is printed onto the document with the multi-function apparatus. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20100328758 | Electrophoretic Display Device - A multi-stable electrophoretic display device has a plurality of pixels and comprises a first substrate and a second substrate. The substrates are spaced apart from each other and enclose a layer of an electrophoretic medium comprising a liquid crystal material having finely divided pigment particles dispersed therein. The device further comprises electrodes for formation of a pixel area outline and applying an electric field across at least some of the electrophoretic medium in the pixel area. The electrodes occupy substantially less than the entire field of view of the display pixels and can be used to effect switching between a first optical state in which most incident light on a pixel does not impinge on a pigment particle, and a second optical state in which most incident light on a pixel impinges on pigment particles. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100292372 | NON-IONIC SURFACTANT ADDITIVES FOR IMPROVED PARTICLE STABILITY IN HIGH ORGANIC INKJET INKS - Inkjet ink compositions and methods for increasing inkjet ink particle stability are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a latex polymer-containing inkjet ink composition comprises a secondary alcohol ethoxylate and a fluoro-surfactant at a concentration ratio effective to increase particle stability of the inkjet ink composition when the pigment particles are substantially electrostatically dispersed. In another embodiment, an inkjet ink composition comprises a latex dispersion having a conductivity of no more than about 1.5 mS/cm. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20100225733 | Systems and Methods for Managing Virtual Collaboration Systems - Systems and methods for managing virtual collaboration systems are disclosed herein. A virtual collaboration system includes a hoster configured to receive second media streams from at least a second node, and to transmit those streams from at least one simulated node to at least a first node; and a management subsystem adapted to dynamically configure a topology of a virtual collaborative event, wherein configuration of the topology includes a determination of media stream connections among the at least one simulated node and the at least a first node based on at least one policy, and wherein the media stream connections establish and maintain virtual relationships among the at least one simulated node and the at least a first node. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20100223658 | Systems and Methods of Handling Access Control Violations - Systems and methods of reporting access violations in a network device are disclosed. One such method comprises setting a forwarding index field in a specific entry of an access control list (ACL) to reference a specific forwarding table entry (FTE). The specific FTE is the only FTE associated with reporting access violations. The method further comprises setting a next destination field in the specific FTE to indicate a copy-to-processor behavior. The method further comprises setting the next destination field in the specific FTE to indicate a drop behavior. The setting of the next destination field is responsive to a timeout on a timer associated with reporting access violations. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20090109253 | Controlling Fire Signals - Embodiments for controlling fire signals are disclosed. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20080310123 | Toolless Configuration Of A Computer Enclosure - Included are embodiments for toolless configuration of a computer enclosure. At least one embodiment of an apparatus includes a computer enclosure configured to support a plurality of components, the computer enclosure including a plurality of dividing walls, the dividing walls including a first opening and a second opening. Some embodiments include a divider configured for insertion into the computer enclosure and between the dividing walls, the divider including a first tab for coupling with the first opening, the divider including a second tab for coupling with the second opening, the divider further including a locking tab for locking the divider in place within the computer enclosure. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20080225103 | Systems and Methods for Adjusting Loading of Media Onto A Print Surface - In one embodiment, a system and method pertains to detecting a position of a sheet of media that has been loaded onto the print surface, determining from the detected position a current loading error with which the media sheet has been loaded onto the print surface, and calculating a loading offset that can be used to adjust the position at which a future media sheet will be loaded onto the print surface. | 09-18-2008 |
