| 20080279154 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING WHEN A COMMUNICATION DEVICE SHOULD RATE SHIFT OR ROAM IN A WIRELESS ENVIRONMENT - Methods for improving communication performance in a wireless communication system where the wireless communication system has at least one mobile wireless communication device and a plurality of transmitter/receiver sites. The transmitter/receiver sites have a geographic area, defined as a cell, within which the mobile wireless communication devices can communicate with at least one of the transmitter/receiver sites. The methods determine when the mobile wireless communication device should rate shift or roam based on connection quality measurement data or position information such as GPS. In one method, the measurement data is subjected to configurable parameters to create a functional relationship value that is recorded. The recorded functional relationship values are trended and extrapolated to determine whether a rate shift or roam should be performed. In a second method, the measurement data taken prior to a communication connection failure is stored in at least one data vector with there being at least one data vector for each rate shift and one for roam. A functional relationship utilizing current measurements, last data rate, and the respective data vectors determines whether a rate shift or roam should be performed. In a third method, the position information for the wireless communication device is compared to at least one transmitter/receiver site and a determination is made as to the optimal transmitter/receiver site for communication. | 11-13-2008 |

| 20100124922 | SATELLITE TRANSMISSION OBFUSCATION - A network for obfuscating satellite terminal transmission activity may include a satellite, a plurality of distributed satellite terminals transmitting signals to and receiving signals from the satellite, and a computer. The computer may compute how much transmission power spectral density each of the distributed satellite terminals is or would be transmitting based on allocated data rates of each of the distributed satellite terminals. The computer may calculate an aggregate transmission power spectral density which is being used or would be used by all of the distributed satellite terminals. The computer may calculate how much unused transmission power spectral density is available to the network for obfuscation by subtracting from a total network regulatory transmission power spectral density limit the aggregate transmission power spectral density. The computer may determine a random distribution of at least a portion of the unused transmission power spectral density to one or more of the distributed satellite terminals. The transmission power spectral density levels of one or more of the distributed satellite terminals may be adjusted by the computer to distribute the portion of the unused transmission power spectral density according to the random distribution determination. | 05-20-2010 |

| 20090138790 | STRUCTURAL EDITING WITH SCHEMA AWARENESS - A markup language document has data entry fields corresponding to markup language nodes that are arranged in a hierarchical structure of parents having child nodes. The hierarchical position of each markup language node in the hierarchical structure is expressed as a corresponding fragment of the markup language. For each parent, a markup language fragment is formed so as to have a plurality of portions each corresponding to the fragment of a respective child node without repeating any fragment of the respective child nodes. Portions that respectively correspond to the child nodes are used for data entry with the data entry fields, where an electronic form is displayed on a user interface for interactive data entry. The electronic form has one or more data entry fields each corresponding to one of the data entry fields of the structured markup language document and into which data can be entered. | 05-28-2009 |

| 20120214124 | High Volume Carpule System - A high volume carpule system for storing and dispensing a high volume of anesthetic to a patient. A preferred embodiment of the high volume carpule system generally includes a syringe having a modified carpule cavity comprised of an upper ring member and a lower ring member which are linked together by a first side member and a second side member. The side members are oriented in such a manner as to allow a pair of slots through which side portions of a high capacity carpule may extend. A high capacity carpule comprised of a substantially cylindrical shape with an elongated cross-section is disclosed for use with the modified carpule cavity. In an alternate embodiment, a second high capacity carpule design is disclosed for use with conventional, prior art syringes. By using the present invention, a dentist or surgeon may administer a higher volume of anesthetic without having to switch carpules within a syringe. | 08-23-2012 |

| 20100039773 | Narrow Gap Spray Cooling in a Globally Cooled Enclosure - Electronic circuit boards are arranged as respective parallel pairs defining a narrow gap there between. One or more such pairs of boards are supported within a hermitically sealable housing and cooled by way of spraying an atomized liquid coolant from a plurality of nozzles into each narrow gap. Transfer of heat from the circuit boards results in vaporization of at least some of the atomized liquid within the narrow gap. The housing further serves to guide a circulation of vapors out of each narrow gap, back toward the nozzles, and back into each narrow gap. A heat exchanger exhausts heat from the housing and overall system, wherein vapor is condensed back to liquid phase during contact and heat transfer therewith. Condensed liquid is collected and re-pressurized for delivery back to the nozzles such that a sustained cooling operation is performed. | 02-18-2010 |

| 20110093782 | Methods and Apparatuses For Providing Message Information In Graphical User Interfaces Based On User Inputs - Improved methods and apparatuses are provided for determining when and how to display non-modal messages relating to user input portions of a graphical user interface (GUI). One method includes displaying at least one user input portion within a GUI and determining if the user input portion is in an invalid state by determining that valid user input associated with the user input portion has not been received. The method further includes displaying a non-modal message within the GUI. The non-modal message is visibly graphically associated with the user input portion. The method also includes automatically applying a focus of the GUI on the user input portion. As long as the focus of the GUI remains on the user input portion, the method includes displaying the non-modal message until the user input portion is determined to be in a valid state. | 04-21-2011 |

| 20080279369 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR N-DIMENSIONAL ENCRYPTION - A system and method is directed to providing an n-dimensional entity for encoding and storing data securely. A user provides a cursor position within the n-dimensional entity, and a user seed to a pseudo-random number generator. The user seed may be combined with a fingerprint of a computing system in which the invention operates. The n-dimensional entity is populated with bits from the pseudo-random number generator. Bits within the n-dimensional entity are associated with actions to be performed at each cursor position. Subsequent cursor directions within the n-dimensional entity are determined using a random number generator. Plaintext is bitwise translated to a direction and an offset from the cursor position to a bit matching the plaintext bit within the n-dimensional entity. The offset is employed to modify a row of truly random bits in an encoded array. | 11-13-2008 |
