| 20100058226 | SCROLLABLE AREA MULTI-SCALE VIEWING - Utilizing a scrollbar handle for both zooming and panning a display comprising items in a user interface may be accomplished by monitoring an input device's interaction with the scrollbar handle. If the scroll handle is dragged in a direction away from an orientation of the scroll handle in the scrollbar, a display area zoom function can be activated. The zoom function allows a viewbox, comprising content, to be rescaled as a function of the distance the scroll handle is dragged. A displaybox can be created that distinguishes an area of the viewbox from the remainder of the display, which corresponds to content in the viewbox that would be displayed in normal zoom if the scroll handle were released at that location. Further, upon detecting that the scroll handle is released, the display area can zoom to a view of the content inside the distinguished area. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20110238829 | ANONYMOUS AND SECURE NETWORK-BASED INTERACTION - The subject disclosure pertains to anonymous network interaction. More specifically, mechanisms are provided to ensure anonymity with respect network interaction such that third parties are unable to determine the source and/or intent of communications. Accordingly, entities may anonymize all outgoing and/or incoming data packets so as to mitigate outside entities from learning about information being sought and/or provided. For example, a user or corporation may employ an anonymizer with respect to web searching so that outside entities are not able to determine what information is attempted to be accessed and by whom. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20090279784 | PROCEDURAL AUTHORING - The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates generating a model from a 3-dimensional (3D) object assembled from 2-dimensional (2D) content. A content aggregator can construct a 3D object from a collection of two or more 2D images each depicting a real entity in a physical real world, wherein the 3D object is constructed by combining the two or more 2D images based upon a respective image perspective. A 3D virtual environment can allow exploration of the 3D object. A model component can extrapolate a true 3D geometric model from the 3D object, wherein the true 3D geometric model is generated to include scaling in proportion to a size within the physical real world. | 11-12-2009 |

| 20120121977 | Surface-modified silicon anode active material, method of preparing the same, and anode and lithium battery employing the same - An anode active material comprising silicon particles with an interfacial layer formed on the surface of the silicon is provided. The interfacial layer has good electron conductivity, elasticity and adhesion among anode materials, thereby enhancing anode capacity and reducing stress caused by expansion of silicon particles during charge and discharge cycles. Direct contact between silicon particles and electrolyte is remarkably reduced as well. In addition, anodes and lithium batteries including the anode active material exhibit excellent capacity and cycle efficiency. | 05-17-2012 |

| 20090094487 | MULTIPLE WINNER ARBITRATION - A method to combine trace data for multiple systems within an embedded system is provided. This method involves coupling a set of trace sources within the embedded system to a trace system. A subset of trace source(s) may then be selected from the set of trace sources. The subset of trace sources may be formatted to produce a packetized trace stream. The packetized trace stream may then be provided to external interface circuitry. External circuitry coupled to the trace system allows for analysis of the packetized trace streams regarding internal operations within the embedded system. An arbitrator may determine which trace source(s) from the set of trace sources are selected to be within the subset of trace sources. The arbitrator may use several criteria to make this determination. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20110271028 | MODULAR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT WITH COMMON INTERFACE - A modular integrated circuit includes a hub module that is coupled to a plurality of spoke modules via a plurality of hub interfaces. The plurality of hub interfaces provide a plurality of signal interfaces between the hub module and each of the plurality of spoke modules, wherein each of the plurality of signal interfaces is isolated from each of the other signal interfaces of the plurality of signals interface, and wherein each of the plurality of signal interfaces operates in accordance with a common signaling format. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110276766 | CONFIGURABLE MEMORY CONTROLLER - Controlling access to memory includes receiving a plurality of memory access requests and assigning corresponding time values to each. The assigned time values are adjusted based upon a clock pulse and a priority access list is generated. Factors consider include missed access deadlines, closeness to missing access deadlines, and whether a page is open. The highest ranked client is then passed to a sequencer to allow the requested access. Time values may be assigned and adjusted according to client ID or client type (latency or bandwidth). A plurality of power modes of operation are defined wherein operation in a selected power mode of operation is based at least in part on the assigned or adjusted time values. The processing is performed in hardware in parallel (at the same time) by associated logic circuits. | 11-10-2011 |

| 20100325497 | USING FRACTIONAL SECTORS FOR MAPPING DEFECTS IN DISK DRIVES - Herein described is at least a method and system for processing a read or write operation when one or more defects are mapped using one or more fractional sectors. The method comprises using one or more fractional sectors to map defects and to store data symbols. Furthermore, a first algorithm is used for translating a logical block address into a physical starting location such that one or more fractional sectors may be processed during a read or write operation. A second algorithm is used for temporally processing one or more portions of a track of a disk drive, wherein the one or more portions may comprise one or more defective fractional sectors, non-defective fractional sectors, frame remainders, and servo sectors. The system comprises a memory, a processor, and software resident in said memory. The process executes the software that implements the first and second algorithms. | 12-23-2010 |
