20100131744 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF A PROCESSOR-AGNOSTIC ENCODED DEBUG-ARCHITECTURE IN A PIPELINED ENVIRONMENT - A method and/or a system of a processor-agnostic encoded debug architecture in a pipelined environment is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a processor includes processing an event specified by a data processing system coupled to the processor to determine a boundary of the event, generating a matrix having combinations of the event and other events occurring simultaneously in the processor, capturing an output data of observed ones of the event and other events, and applying the matrix to generate an encoded debug data of the output data. The method may also include determining which of the combinations are valid based on an architecture of the processor. The event may be a trace-worthy event whose output value cannot be reliably predicted in an executable file in the data processing system and/or a sync event that is specified by a user of the data processing system. | 05-27-2010 |

20110319151 | GAMING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING BINGO WINS - A gaming system includes a plurality of gaming machines and a continual game sequence including a plurality of symbols and a plurality of sessions. Each session includes a number of games. At the beginning of a game sequence, the gaming system draws all of the symbols. When the number of games of the current session has been played without a winner, the game sequence proceeds to the next session. For each session, the gaming system activates a number of the drawn symbols based on the session number. Upon player activation, a gaming machine generates a symbol subset, marking each symbol in the subset which matches the activated symbols. If the marked symbols match a predetermined pattern, the gaming system provides an award for a player, basing the award on an award pool amount and the session number. As the session number increases, the award provided to the player decreases. | 12-29-2011 |

20080234036 | PROVIDING PROGRESSIVE GAMES FOR GAMING ENVIRONMENTS - Techniques for providing progressive games in a gaming environment are disclosed. Progressive configuration data can effectively define one or more progressive games for a gaming environment that includes one or more gaming machines. The progressive gaming data can, for example, be provided as a set of rules (e.g., rules in an XSLT form). A progressive configurator uses the progressive configuration data and gaming data received from the gaming machines in order to effectively implement one or more progressive games. The gaming data can, for example, include information about a gaming machine (e.g., serial number, network, location), one or more games available on the gaming machine (e.g., type of the game, minimum and maximum bet for a game), and data regarding a specific game instance (e.g., amount wagered, outcome of a game instance). In addition, the amount of contribution to a progressive game, whether there is a win, and/or prize to be rewarded can be determined by the progressive configurator and/or a progressive gaming manager. | 09-25-2008 |
20110195773 | FLEXIBLE DETERMINATION OF PROGRESSIVE AWARDS - The present invention provides novel method and devices for implementing progressive systems on networked gaming machines and associated network devices. Some preferred implementations of the invention allow a target progressive pool size to be selected and apply payouts such that the actual progressive pool size is not likely to exceed greatly the target progressive pool size. Some such implementations control the actual progressive pool size by applying a function to control percentages of the current progressive pool size payable to players of a wagering game on the networked gaming machines. The function may be a function of a current progressive pool size, target progressive pool size and bet size. The function may cause relatively higher percentages of the current progressive pool size to be payable to players when the current progressive pool amount is greater than a target progressive pool size and relatively lower percentages of the current progressive pool size to be payable to players when the current progressive pool size is less than or equal to a target progressive pool size. | 08-11-2011 |

20080279168 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BROADCASTING OVERHEAD PARAMETERS IN POOR COVERAGE REGIONS - To improve WWAN coverage, an access node broadcasts overhead messages on a first channel covering a first channel environment and a second channel covering a second channel environment within a coverage region. The overhead messages carry network overhead parameters for allowing wireless mobile devices to acquire and maintain traffic channels within the cellular system. The overhead message channels are configured so that a user perceives uninterrupted wireless services while moving through different channel environments in the coverage region. In one embodiment, the overhead message channels are separate physical channels configured with different broadcast parameters to provide coverage in different environments. In another embodiment, the overhead parameter information is segregated into base and extended components that are encoded and layer modulated onto separate logical channels. Using layered modulation, wireless mobile devices can receive base components in poor coverage regions. The base components include overhead parameters for acquiring a WWAN channel. | 11-13-2008 |
20080280630 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BROADCASTING PAGE MESSAGES IN POOR COVERAGE REGIONS - A system and method for paging wireless mobile devices selectively varies the effective modulation order of a paging channel to achieve improved coverage in a wireless wide area network (WWAN) cell. In one embodiment, the paging channel modulation order is selected based on a measured signal strength and/or common channel error rate. The selected modulation order is directly related to the quality of the channel environment. In another embodiment, a page message is segregated into base and extended components that are layer modulated. With layered modulation, wireless mobile devices in good coverage regions can successfully demodulate both the base and extended components to recover the entire page message. Wireless mobile devices in poor coverage regions can successfully demodulate the base component of the page message, and then request that the extended component of the page message be re-broadcast as a base component to thereby recover the entire page message. | 11-13-2008 |
20090116500 | APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING AN ACTIVE CALL BETWEEN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS - An active voice call with an access terminal is transferred from an originating wireless network to a destination wireless network in response to a call continuation message transmitted by the access terminal to a destination network switch of the destination wireless network. The call continuation message includes a connected number indicator identifying the voice call and a call continuation indicator indicating the voice call should be routed through the destination network switch. In some circumstances, an originating network switch of the originating wireless network identifies the voice call to the network switch of the first wireless network to facilitate the transfer. | 05-07-2009 |
