摘要： A device identifies signals it receives at a particular point in time, such as Wi-Fi signals and cell tower signals. The device records data indicating these identified signals, as well as data used to determine the position of the device at that particular point in time. The position of the device is determined using dead reckoning, which is separated into two stages. In the first stage, a distance and direction of movement is determined at the device based on data from various inertial sensors of the device. In the second stage, various filters, maps, and/or other techniques are used at another device (e.g., a crowd sourcing data service) thus alleviating the device of the burden of performing the second stage.

摘要： An environment is described in which a processing system provides application-level usage information to users. In one scenario, for example, the processing system may provide personal usage information to a user who is operating a user device. The personal usage information itemizes the amount of data (and/or other resources) that has been consumed by each application run by the user device. In another scenario, the processing system may provide expected usage information associated with at least one candidate application provided by a marketplace system. The expected usage information describes an expected consumption of data (and/or other resources) by the candidate application upon running the candidate application by the user device. The processing system can tailor the expected usage information that it sends to a particular user based on user profile data. The user profile data describes a manner in which users operate applications.

摘要： A electronic communication system that can detect and adapt to delays in delivery of e-mail messages. The system may adapt to delays by using other mechanisms to convey the information intended for delivery by e-mail. The mechanism may convey the information to the recipient once the delayed electronic mail message is received by the recipient's e-mail system. In this respect, the recipient may make arrangements to receive information in the e-mail message when the recipient expects to be away from his or her e-mail system. Additionally or alternatively, the recipient may choose to initiate out-of-band communication to the sender when the recipient receives an indication of a delayed electronic mail message.

摘要： Various technologies pertaining to localizing multiple mobile computing devices in an indoor environment are described. Pairs of microphone arrays are selectively positioned in an indoor environment. A localization service assigns a frequency and schedule to a mobile telephone, and the mobile telephone begins outputting vibrations at the assigned frequency and in conformance with the assigned schedule. The microphone arrays sense the vibrations, and angles between the microphone arrays, respectively, and the mobile computing device are computed based upon the sensed vibrations. Such angles are subsequently employed to compute the location of the mobile computing device in the indoor environment.

摘要： Notifying a user that an email message sent to the user was not received by the user. Users can register to receive notifications. When a sender sends an email message to a recipient, a separate notification also may be sent to a notification service that populates and controls access to an email notification list. Each notification in the list may comprise a hash of the content of the email message that it represents. A recipient module may be configured to check the notification list periodically and/or in response to a recipient's instructions, and compare notifications to the email messages received for the recipient to determine whether any email messages intended for the recipient were not received. If it is determined from the notifications that an email message was not received, a notice may be sent to the sender, which my include a request that the sender re-send the email message.

摘要： The description relates to mobile device location. One example can identify global navigation satellite system (GNSS) satellites expected to be in line-of-sight of a mobile device. This example can detect differences between received GNSS data signals and expected GNSS data signals from the expected GNSS satellites. The example can also determine a direction from the mobile device of an obstruction that is causing at least some of the detected differences.

摘要： A home device management technique is described that allows a user to manage a network of distributed home devices. Special application modules, driver modules, and service exchange ports are employed. Each application modules implements some functionality in the home, preferably using one or more devices in the home distributed system. Each driver module provides the logic for operating one or multiple distributed home devices and is capable of receiving commands from application modules and sending them to devices, detecting events for an associated type of home device, translating the detected event into a format usable by the application modules and notifying the application modules of the events. Events are communicated between the application modules and the driver modules by using one or more service exchange ports. Access control policies are employed to control access to the home devices. The application and driver modules can be obtained over a network from a home marketplace that can also determine their compatibility and interoperability with the home devices.
