20150089355 | GRAPHICAL TILE-BASED LAYOUT - Described herein is a technology to facilitate designing or arranging a layout of a page. In one implementation, a tile-based page having one or more tiles forming a page layout is provided. The tile-based page includes a focus tile. In response to a user event to indicate a tile change in the page layout, a tile adjacent in the layout is determined. The tile adjacent is the minimum area to be shifted to effect the tile change. The tile is absorbed into an empty area and the changed layout is analyzed to determine if the tile-based page is a convex page. | 03-26-2015 |
20150178356 | AFFINITY-BASED INTELLIGENCE PROMPTER - Representative implementations provide devices and techniques for adding a field to a business object. One or more fields from similar business objects may be presented for selection as templates for the new field. The one or more fields and the similar business objects are determined by calculating an affinity value between the business object and other business objects. | 06-25-2015 |
20150178377 | SYSTEM FOR SELF-DISTINGUISHABLE IDENTIFIER AND GENERATION - Disclosed herein is a framework for generating and providing self-distinguishable identifiers as to users. In accordance with one aspect, an entry is retrieved from an object, wherein the entry includes one or more fields. The one or more fields may be concatenated to create a concatenated string. The framework may then determine if the concatenated string is unique from other concatenated strings in a listing of the object. If the concatenated string is determined to be not unique, a unique sequence identifier may be added to the concatenated string. | 06-25-2015 |
20150178655 | SYSTEM FOR USER GUIDANCE FOR CONNECTING BUSINESS FUNCTIONS - Disclosed herein is a framework to organize functions to scenarios in order to guide users to complete processes. In accordance with one aspect, the framework determines an initial scenario. Particular functions may be assigned to the initial scenario. The initial scenario may be performed and other scenarios that follow the initial scenario may be presented. | 06-25-2015 |
20150180732 | MOVING MEDIAN USAGE FREQUENCY BASED MAINTENANCE OF SERVER INSTANCES - A framework for maintaining a plurality of server instances in batches to ensure continuity of service is described herein. In accordance with one aspect, quantities of the server instances are selected in an order based on a usage frequency of the server instances with respect to a median usage frequency of the plurality of server instances. The selected server instances may be logically quarantined for maintenance, one batch at a time. Each batch of server instances may be returned to service when the server instances of the batch are successfully maintained while logically quarantining a next batch of server instances. | 06-25-2015 |
20150180815 | SYSTEM FOR PUSH SERVICE NOTIFICATION BASED ON USER HISTORY - Disclosed herein is a framework for pushing service notifications to users via selected channels that are chosen based on user history. In accordance with one aspect, the framework determines if a notification is to be sent to a particular user. The framework may further determine if the notification requires an action. If the notification requires no action, the framework may choose, from multiple channels, a channel with lowest receive time duration. The framework may then send the notification via the chosen channel. | 06-25-2015 |

20090134298 | TOOL HANGER - A device for holding and displaying hand tools, especially for exhibiting such products in a retail establishment. The hanger consists of a bracket having a slot for hanging the device on a hook, peg, etc. The bracket is connected to a connecting member that has a tool holder. The bracket can be disconnected from the tool holder by a snap fastener which also allows the bracket to be pivoted downwardly behind the connecting member for compact storage and shipping. The snap fastener also allows for different types and sizes of tool holders to be connected to the bracket, depending upon the tool being displayed. | 05-28-2009 |
20090260499 | MITER BOX WITH ADJUSTABLE CLAMPS - The present invention relates to a miter box. Miter boxes have a base, a pair of opposed side walls, and at least one aligned slot in the side walls. An embodiment of the present invention includes at least one guide rail mounted on the base perpendicular to the side wall. Further, a clamping assembly is positioned on the guide rail. The clamping assembly is selectively moveable along said guide rail. In this manner, a work piece can be secured to the miter box to hold the piece in position while it is being cut. | 10-22-2009 |
20110005954 | CASE FOR HOLDING A HAND TOOL - In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, a case for holding a hand tool at a point of sale is provided. The hand tool has a working end and a handle. The handle projects from the case to form a handle for the case and the case engages the hand tool such that the hand tool is prevented from being removed from the case while simultaneously, the handle can be rotated with respect to the case to test a function of the hand tool. Before the case and the hand tool is purchased the hand tool is prevented from being removed from the case; however, the handle can be rotated with respect to the case when the case is in a closed position. After the hand tool is purchased the customer can break a seal and the case may be opened, thereby allowing the tool to be removed from the case when the case is in an open position. | 01-13-2011 |
20110226648 | CASE FOR HOLDING A HAND TOOL - A case for holding a hand tool in a first position wherein the handle projects from the case and engages the hand tool such that the hand tool is prevented from being removed from the case while simultaneously, the handle can be operated with respect to the case to test a function of the hand tool. The case is also adapted to hold the hand tool in a second position wherein the handle fits within the case. The case includes a cover positioned on top of a base, wherein the cover has an opening that when combined with an anti-theft device is adapted to hold the hand tool in the first position. Also included is a base adapted to carry interchangeable bits for the hand tool. The base includes a through hole to allow the working end of the hand tool to pass therethrough and engage a frictional engaging member that opposes a direction of rotation of the working end to test a function of the hand tool. | 09-22-2011 |
