    摘要: In one embodiment, a video signal is displayed on a display screen in two or more resolutions. The video signal may be of a first resolution and the display screen may be set to a second resolution. In one embodiment, the video signal resolution is of a size that is greater than the size of the display screen resolution. The method includes displaying a first portion of the video signal in a first resolution in a first region of the display. A second portion of the video signal is then displayed in a second resolution in a second region of the display. The second resolution is a resolution that displays at least a portion of the video signal that would be off screen if the video signal is displayed in the first resolution. Accordingly, more of the signal can be displayed on the screen.

    摘要: A method for automatically selecting resources to be used by a given computing process. The method includes determining resources that will be required for execution of the process and then ascertaining availability at and capabilities of local and remote resources at a desired processing time. An appropriate combination of resources is then selected from local and remote resources that will satisfy one or more predetermined criteria. A second method represents a method for allocating local and/or remote computing resources. Local computing resources include local processing power and local storage. Remote computing resources include remote processing power and remote storage. The method includes receiving an indication of a function to be performed at a future time; then determining a local resource limitation of performing the function at the future time; and then automatically allocating one or more of the remote computing resources for performance of the function.

    摘要: Management of power resources of an electronic device are disclosed. The electronic device has multiple subsystems in communication with a power supply, and an interface in communication with the subsystems. A directive is received with the interface to perform a function with the electronic device. A subset of the subsystems needed to perform the function are identified. For each identified subsystem and in response to receipt of the directive, a predicted power-resource quantity needed to perform the function is determined. A determination is made whether sufficient unallocated resources of the power supply are available to accommodate the predicted power-resource quantity for each identified subsystem. Respective portions of the available and unallocated resources of the power supply are accordingly allocated for use by respective identified subsystems in accordance with the determined power-resource quantities, with such allocation rendering the respective portions unavailable for use other than by the respective subsystems.

    摘要: A controller that automatically identifies one or more peripheral devices which need to be programmed for use with the controller. In some embodiments, the controller is able to visually identify a peripheral device from an image, obtain the configuration information for the peripheral device, and program itself in the background according to the configuration information. These tasks are advantageously performed by the remote control, without user input. The controller can be programmed to support a plurality of peripheral devices. When the controller is used to control a peripheral device, the controller may first present a selection list on the display screen. The selection list may include all the peripheral devices that the remote is communicatively coupled with. Upon the user selecting the desired peripheral device to be controlled, the remote control may dynamically outputs a customized user interface associated with the selected peripheral device.

    摘要: A computing device that includes a host processor and a service processor is provided. The host processor is configured to interact with a first user interface. For example, the host processor may be a microprocessor for the device and the first user interface may be a display device. A service processor is provided and can interact with a second user interface. In some cases, the service processor may interact with the second user interface without communicating with the host processor. Accordingly, the service processor can perform functions without relying on the host processor. Using the service processor conserves processing power and also may allow the reduction in size of the device as the service processor may perform the functions previously performed by discrete hardware and the host processor.
