Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and a terminal for synchronizing a subordinate carrier cell, which method comprises the following steps of: after a terminal receives an activation uplink subordinate carrier order from a service node B, the terminal, with the current time as a reference, carrying out synchronization in a cell in an activation set of the enhanced dedicated channel of the subordinate carrier under a non-service node B at a first time point after having carried out delay according to an acquired subordinate carrier activation processing offset time period. The present technical solution reduces the time delay required by synchronization and inter-cell interference and enables the cell capacity and coverage to be unaffected.
Abstract:
A tile saw comprises a frame, a primary table moveably supported by the frame for supporting a work-piece to be cut, a water tray located under the primary table, a supporting arm mounted on the frame, and a cutting device supported by the supporting arm. The primary table also includes first and second connecting edges and a secondary table which may be removably attached, without the use of tools, to either the first or second connecting edge of the primary table. When the secondary table is attached, the supporting area for the work-piece is increased resulting in increased stability and increased cutting accuracy.
Abstract:
At least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message is intercepted. A corresponding HTTP message model is identified. The HTTP message model includes a plurality of message model sections. Additional steps include parsing a representation of the at least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message into message sections in accordance with the message model sections of the HTTP message model; and binding a plurality of security rules to the message model sections. The plurality of security rules each specify at least one action to be taken in response to a given condition. The given condition is based, at least in part, on a corresponding given one of the message sections. A further step includes processing the at least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message in accordance with the plurality of security rules. Techniques for developing rules for a web application server firewall are also provided.
Abstract:
A method for predicting precoding matrix (PM) in a MIMO System includes the steps of: obtaining a present PM based on a present transmission; fitting the present PM and previous PMs with a predefined model; and determining a forthcoming PM which is expected to be used in the next transmission based on the fitting.
Abstract:
Location aware reminder techniques are described. In one or more implementations, an amount of time is determined by a computing device that is likely to be involved for a user to access a scheduled event. A point in time at which to output a reminder by the computing device before the scheduled event is computed based at least in part on the determined amount of time that is likely to be involved for the user to access the scheduled event.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a system and method for processing multi-modal collaboration. In an embodiment communication received from multiple modes are converted into a common format. Using various conversion modules, the communication may be converted into a common electronic text format (e.g. ASCII text) that contains keywords. Once the communication is converted into a common format, the information contained in the communication may be analyzed and consolidated into related areas or topics. The consolidated information may then be searched for common references in order to augment the information context.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for modifying a channel quality indication (CQI). This method may comprise: calculating a scaling factor for the channel quality indication based on uplink channel information and an antenna virtualization pre-coding scheme; and modifying the channel quality indication reported by user equipment by using the scaling factor. According to the technical solutions of the present invention, the antenna virtualization factor is considered in performing CQI modification and. Thus, this solution can overcome the problem of CQI mismatch, enhance the completeness and accuracy of CQI feedback, and improve the cell throughput performance and frequency utilization.
Abstract:
A method of integrated automatic support and assistance includes identifying a user and retrieving models representing the user's device, apparatus, service, or system, receiving a query from the user, as necessary refining the query, determining if the received query is a machine translatable query, restructuring machine translatable terms of the received query into semantic components based upon the retrieved models, determining a set of candidate knowledge bases both related to the semantic components, submitting the machine translatable query to each knowledge base of the set of candidate knowledge bases, receiving a set of responses from each knowledge base of the set of knowledge bases in response to the submitting, formatting the set of responses, submitting the formatted set of responses to the user, determining if a response of the submitted formatted set of responses is accepted by the user, applying updated weights within the formatted set of responses, and storing the updated weights for future queries.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a method for supporting multiple time zones in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). The method comprises: a Proxy Call Session Control Function (PCSCF) network element sends a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message including time zone information to a control layer network element exclusive of the PCSCF network element (201); after obtaining the time zone information, the control layer network element receiving the SIP message sends an SIP message including the time zone information to a service layer network element (202); and the service layer network element receives the SIP message sent from the control layer network element and obtains the time zone information included in the SIP message (203). The disclosure also provides a system for supporting multiple time zones, a charging method and a charging system in an IMS. Through the solution of the disclosure, the time zone information can be transferred to each network element above in the IMS, and local time of a user in a call can be included in a Charging Data Record (CDR), thus, the accuracy of charging is improved.
Abstract:
There is disclosed a method of facilitating interaction between users of an electronic community. In an embodiment, the method comprises: reviewing a user activity log for each user in the electronic community; executing a natural language parser to extract significant noun phrases from the user activity log; updating user profiles from the newly extracted noun phrases, based on their usage frequency and importance value; and storing the updated profiles in a user profile and relationship data base; and executing a similarity based clustering algorithm to cluster user profiles, thereby discovering relationships among users and storing them in a user profile and relationship database. The method may further comprise displaying for each user the one or more relationships to which the user is assigned, together with a list of users assigned to the one or more relationships. The method may also comprise storing for each user the relationship to which the user is assigned in a user profile and relationship database.
