| 20110191363 | EMBEDDED USER EXPERIENCE IN SEARCH RESULT CONTENT - Internet search queries are a powerful tool for users to discover and interact with internet content. In response to submitting a user search query, the user may be presented with search result content comprising links and descriptions of websites, images, and/or other information relevant to the user search query. Unfortunately, current search engines and/or websites do not embed user experience data (e.g., hyperlinks to additional queries, images, pop-ups, etc.) within the search result content based upon user intent. Accordingly, one or more systems and/or techniques for embedding user experience data in search result content are disclosed herein. Search result content may be received and terms (e.g., text or other data) within the search result content may be tagged based upon a user intent. User experience data may be embedded within the tagged terms. The search result content with the embedded user experience data may be presented to the user. | 08-04-2011 |

| 20120044955 | DYNAMIC ADJUSTMENT OF BANDWIDTH ALLOCATION FOR AN IN-PROGRESS MEDIA SESSION - A client in a media session periodically transmits a “keepalive” message that indicates that a new amount of bandwidth is requested for the in-progress media session. A bandwidth policy service receives the keepalive message and determines whether the new amount of bandwidth can be allocated to the in-progress media session. If the service determines that the new amount of bandwidth can be allocated to the session, the service transmits a response to the keepalive message that indicates that the new amount of bandwidth has been allocated to the media session. The client receives the response and adjusts the bandwidth utilized by the in-progress session to the new amount of bandwidth. | 02-23-2012 |
| 20120059939 | EFFICIENT CONNECTION MANAGEMENT AND DATA SYNCHRONIZATION - Call admission control (“CAC”) servers in a pool are fully connected to one another. Session data received at one of the CAC servers in a pool is synchronized to each of the other CAC servers in the pool by way of the connections. Each CAC server in a first pool may also establish a connection with exactly one CAC server in a second pool. Status updates and commit data is synchronized from a CAC server in the first pool to a CAC server in the second pool. The commit data may then be synchronized to each of the CAC servers in the second pool. | 03-08-2012 |

| 20120079119 | INTERACTING WITH CLOUD-BASED APPLICATIONS USING UNRELATED DEVICES - Systems and method provide logic facilitating an interaction between a networked server and multiple, unrelated devices. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method enables a user of a device to interact with or control multiple, unrelated devices across a could computing environment using a networked server. The method includes receiving, at the networked server, an instruction from the control device. A corresponding instruction understandable by an unrelated controlled device is generated by the networked server, and the corresponding instruction is operable to cause the controlled device to perform the received instruction. The networked server may transmit the corresponding instruction to the controlled device. | 03-29-2012 |

| 20100090674 | Electric Power Control system and process - A method and apparatus for controlling electric power supplied to one or more electrical devices from a power source are disclosed. Measurements of the supplied electricity are detected. Estimated deviant voltage levels that the supplied electricity will not drop below or exceed as a result of varying electrical consumption by the one or more electrical devices is computed based on a predetermined confidence level and the detected measurements. A voltage level output of the electricity supplied to the electrical device is adjusted based on the computed deviant voltage level. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20100085004 | ELECTRIC POWER CONTROL SYSTEM AND EFFICIENCY OPTIMIZATION PROCESS FOR A POLYPHASE SYNCHRONOUS MACHINE - A system and process includes continuously determining an applied armature voltage supplied to a polyphase synchronous machine for which a maximum mechanical load is characterized by a pull-out torque. The armature voltage is supplied from a power source via one of many taps of a regulating transformer. The armature voltage being supplied from the power source to the machine is changed by selecting one of the voltage levels from the taps of the regulating transformer. The tap voltage levels are selected based on the determined applied armature voltage to minimize power consumption of the machine while ensuring based on a predetermined confidence level that the pull-out torque of the machine will not be exceeded. | 04-08-2010 |

| 20100059900 | Translucent, Flame Resistant Composite Materials - A translucent composite material that can be used in various airplane interior applications that allows sufficient light transmissivity while preferably meeting Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) flammability requirements for overhead materials in the cabin of a commercial aircraft. The material also meets FAA standards regarding vertical burn, smoke emissions tests, and toxic fume emissions tests. The composite material is formed by laminating long glass fibers and (PPSU) into a composite sheet under controlled heat and pressure. The composite sheet is then cut, bent or thermoformed to form the desired part. The parts formed are available for a wide variety of uses within the passenger cabin of a commercial aircraft. The long glass fibers may be unidirectional or weaved into a glass cloth like material. While preferably formed for airplane interior applications, these components may also be used in other aerospace or non-aerospace applications. | 03-11-2010 |

| 20110289186 | SYSTEMS, METHODS AND ARTICLES FOR PROVIDING COMMUNICATIONS AND SERVICES VIA A PEER-TO-PEER NETWORK OVER A DATA TRANSPORT LINK - Network communications, Web-based services and customized services using the Web-based services may be provided over a peer-to-peer network from a first peer to a second peer (e.g., automobile head unit) wherein the first peer has a separate connection to a more general server-based network such as the Internet. A communications device application based on a peer communications framework component in communication with a peer network stack on the communications device may work as middleware, with a connection to both a more general server-based network such as the Internet and to an external device, such as a head unit of an automobile. Although the communications device has a separate connection out to the Internet via a general network stack co-existing on the same communications device, the peer network stack and the general network stack are not directly connected. | 11-24-2011 |

| 20110043396 | Optical Sampling Method for Analog to Digital Conversion - A method and apparatus for encoding data. A first pair of optical signals having a first phase difference is generated in response to receiving an input signal having a voltage. A second pair of optical signals having a second phase difference is generated in response to receiving an input signal having a voltage. The first pair of optical signals is combined to form a first optical signal having a first intensity. The second pair of optical signals is combined to form a second optical signal having a second intensity. The first intensity of the first optical signal reaches a peak at a different time from the second intensity of the second optical signal. | 02-24-2011 |
