A remote asset management system comprising a network of programmable wireless modules, each having an antenna and an identification module and configured to communicate via a radio communication protocol. The system further includes a plurality of assets each linked to one of the programmable wireless modules and configured to be managed by the linked programmable wireless module. A remote system server service platform is configured to receive remote asset data from at least one of the programmable wireless modules, pass the remote asset data to and from the wireless modules, send messages to at least one of the programmable wireless modules, monitor the programmable wireless modules by requesting and receiving current mode information, and remotely program the programmable wireless modules. A data processing module located within the at least one programmable wireless module and configured to process messages received by the programmable wireless module, authenticate said message, analyze authenticated messages, and carry out asset management instructions included in the message.

A user at a receiving Web station is provided with several alternate Web page display interface formats, from which the user may select the appropriate format for each Web document that he bookmarks. Thus, each time that a bookmarked Web document will be displayed subsequently, it will have this optimum presentation interface format. The implementation comprises bookmarking a received Web document, predetermining at least one display interface format alternate to said standard display interface format for bookmarked Web documents, providing a document folder associated with each alternate display interface format, enabling a user to put a bookmarked Web document into a document folder associated with an alternate display interface format and displaying bookmarked documents in said document folder in said alternate display interface format.

A method of enabling a user to manage items such as text, graphics image, audio clips, video clips etc. on a clipboard are provided. The method includes displaying a window having at least one option for managing the items on the clipboard and allowing the user to assert the option to manage the items. In another embodiment, a method is provided to indicate a selected item at a location in a document displayed in a graphical user interface with a scrollbar. The method includes selecting the item, determining whether the item is a file, and displaying, if the item is a file, an icon representing the file in the scrollbar at a location corresponding to the location of the highlighted item.

A method, system, and a computer program product that enables a second window opened on a display screen to “flow” into and fill/occupy all available space within the displayable area of the display screen without overlapping a first window occupying less than the maximum width and/or length of the display area. A window flowing utility enables multiple windows to concurrently coexist and fill the maximum displayable area of the display screen. The window flowing utility determines which areas of the display screen are not currently being utilized by the first window, and allows the second window to occupy all of the available space remaining on the display device surrounding the first window.

An electromechanical pin setter including a hydraulic drive component. The present invention includes a deck assembly holds pins in deck chutes and reciprocates vertically to spot and re-spot pins on a pin setting location on a bowling lane, a rake mechanism removes pins from the bowling lane, a pit conveyor moves pins and a bowling ball toward a pin elevator, the pin elevator in a pit area lifts pins to a cross conveyor, the cross conveyor delivers pins to a turret, the turret distributes pins to the deck chutes, and a ball elevator to lift the bowling ball to a ball return track. A hydraulic drive component having at least one of a fluid motor and a fluid drive cylinder controls an operation of at least one of the deck assembly, the rake mechanism, the pit conveyor, the pin elevator, the cross conveyor, the turret, and the ball elevator.

An apparatus and method of highlighting links that are not clearly identifiable in a Web document are provided. When the document is displayed, if the links are not clearly recognizable as such, the user may depress a button. Upon depressing the button, all the links embedded in the document will be highlighted. Here, highlighted is used to mean any manner that may be used to make the links clearly recognizable as such.

A disk drive is disclosed comprising a disk having top and bottom surfaces, and top and bottom heads actuated over the top and bottom surfaces, respectively. Control circuitry detects a warping of the disk by writing a first test pattern to the top surface, reading the first test pattern to generate a first read signal, monitoring a first read signal value proportional to an amplitude of the first read signal, writing a second test pattern to the bottom surface, reading the second test pattern to generate a second read signal, monitoring a second read signal value proportional to an amplitude of the second read signal, and processing the first and second read signal values to detect a negative correlation between the amplitudes of the first and second read signals.

Minimizing the damaging effects of loud music but with minimal reduction in aesthetic quality of the music. When music presented through an audio is sampled in order to determine average frequency, music having very low average frequencies is predictably likely to be played louder than sampled music having higher average frequencies. This unexpected observation is based upon a human factor, i.e. rock and related music that is ordinarily composed and presented at relatively low frequencies, e.g. 500 to 1000 Hz is likely to be played on the audio system at very high volume because of the tastes of its listeners. An audio system for a data processor controlled presentation of music with a set up for minimizing the damaging effects of loud music comprising an implementation for predetermining a minimum average frequency of music being presented in combination with measuring whether the music being presented falls below said minimum average frequency for a sampling period. Then, based on the above recognition, there is provided a device for automatically limiting the music being presented to an audio volume below a predetermined level when said measured average frequency for said sampling period is below said minimum average frequency.

A signal processing system is provided which describes a method and apparatus to determine the absolute time of arrival of a transmitted signal and to determine the location of a transmitting device by determining the relative difference in time that a transmitted signal is received at three or more receivers which are spaced apart with respect to each other. The method and apparatus is applicable to all systems which transmit discrete signals or signals which comprise composite components. The system comprises a ramp detection component to track the arrival of the signal and to determine, to a high time resolution, the arrival of a signal by identifying a particular feature of the transmitted signal. The time-of-arrival of the signal is determined with reference to a timing circuit. Each receiver further comprises a timing-synchronisation component to maintain a highly accurate clock by using an accurate timing reference such as the timing signals transmitted by the Global Positioning System constellation of satellites. In one embodiment the method is applicable to the transmission of discrete signals according to the protocol of a packet switching network.
