Abstract:
Disclosed are a mobile terminal for controlling a 3D image using proximity touch, and a 3D image controlling method thereof. Aligning, moving and re-aligning a specific 3D object inside a 3D object group are performed, through proximity hovering. And, depth of the 3D object is automatically controlled by the various operations. This may provide various 3D-related interfaces to a user.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus includes an optical source for a single order single-sideband suppressed-carrier optical signal with a bandwidth that scales from over 4 gigaHertz or is at least 8 GHz from an optical carrier frequency. In an example embodiment, an apparatus includes a stable laser source configured to output an optical carrier signal at a carrier frequency. The apparatus includes a radio frequency electrical source configured to output an electrical radio frequency signal with a radio frequency bandwidth less than one octave. The apparatus also includes an optical modulator configured to output an optical signal with the optical carrier signal modulated by the radio frequency signal in a plurality of orders (harmonics) of optical frequency sidebands. The apparatus further includes an optical filter configured to pass one single order optical frequency sideband of the optical signal, which sideband does not overlap the sideband of any other harmonic.
Abstract:
Described herein are methods and systems for virtualization of a USB device to enable sharing of the USB device among a plurality of host processors in a multi-processor computing system. A USB virtualization unit for sharing of the USB device include a per-host register unit, each corresponding to a host processor includes one or more of a host register interface, host data interface, configuration registers, and host control registers, configured to receive simultaneous requests from one or more host processors from amongst the plurality of host processors for the USB device. The USB virtualization unit also includes a pre-fetch direct memory access (DMA) configured to pre-fetch DMA descriptors associated with the requests to store in a buffer. The USB virtualization unit further includes an endpoint specific switching decision logic (ESL) configured to schedule data access based on the DMA descriptors from the host processor's local memory corresponding to each request.
Abstract:
A system and method for effectively encoding and decoding a wide-area network based remote presentation scheme makes use of a scalable video codec (SVC) to encode multiple screen data. A RGB frame of each screen is converted into YUV444 which is subsequently converted into two YUV420 frames. The V frame of the YUV444 is divided into four sub-frames. Two of those sub-frames are combined with the Y frame to create the first YUV420 frame. A second YUV420 frame is created by combining the remaining two V sub-frames with the U frame. The two YUV420 frames are encoded separately by using SVC or together by using Multi-View Codec. An SVC decoder receives and decodes two such YUV420 frames. Those decoded YUV420 frames are then used to obtain the YUV444 frame which is subsequently converted in to RGB frame to display the image on a screen.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided to redistribute and rebalance power to a plurality of blade servers with a chassis unit. At a chassis management controller device in a chassis unit comprising a plurality of blade server devices, policy information is stored for the chassis unit. The policy information comprises power limit information that indicates a power budget for the chassis unit and blade server priority information that indicates priority for access to power for each of the plurality of blade servers in the chassis unit. Power is distributed to the plurality of blade servers based on the blade server priority information for each of the plurality of blade servers and the power limit information for the chassis unit. The actual power consumption of each of the plurality of blade servers is determined and power is redistributed to the plurality of blade servers based on the actual power consumption and the policy information.
Abstract:
A server side connection pool provides pooling of server connections. Thus, client side processes do not create groups of dedicated resources. Clients are provided the capability to communicate to a server side connection broker process to GET a pooled server connection comprising connection state plus a thread of execution for doing some work, whereby requesting the work can bypass the connection broker process and go directly to the assigned pooled connection. Once the client issues a RELEASE to release the pooled connection back to the pool, a completely different client process on potentially a different client middle tier machine can reuse the same pooled connection. The server-side connection pool can be logically partitioned into sub-pools that correspond to connection classes that typically correspond to respective applications. A client process can request a pooled connection having a particular state, where a stored procedure can be executed to generate such state.
Abstract:
File system sharing in multi-host computing system (100) running multiple operating systems is described herein. A file systems stored on different data partitions (110-1) and (110-1), of different operating systems (106-1) and (106-2), running on a multi-host computing system (100) may be shared based on file server-client architecture. According to the implementation, an operating system (106-1) may share its file system as file server and other operating system (106-2) may access the shared file system as file client. In one implementation, the sharing of data between multiple hosts is enabled by a dedicated high speed, low latency. inter processor communication bus, FiRE (124).

Abstract:
A dough-like confectionery material contains a solid particulate, a liquid, and a diffusion controller. The dough-like confectionery material is an effective replacement for panned coatings, and it can be applied to an edible substrate, such as candy or chewing gum to form a layered confection. Methods and apparatus for forming layered confections are also described.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are polyol particles treated to modify the properties of the polyol. Polyol particles are coated with a crunch material coating composition to provide a particulate crunch material. Alternatively, hygroscopic polyol particles are coated with an inorganic material to provide a polyol having a reduced capacity for moisture absorption. Also disclosed herein is the incorporation of such pretreated polyol particle compositions in chewing gum.
