    摘要: A computer system for determining traffic patterns and congestion and using the determined traffic patterns and congestion to determine an appropriate route using a global positioning system and related route map calculator. A vehicle is provided with an onboard computer system adapted to determine travel time of a vehicle in a road segment and calculate a route based on this information. In addition, this information can be distributed to or otherwise shared with other vehicles and similar information can be received from other vehicles to provide a distributed network for generating and sharing experienced traffic patterns. The information can also be used to predict traffic patterns as well.

    摘要: A computer system and method of performing a second chance pointer operation wherein a pointer displayed on a computer display includes at least one alternate hot spot. In response to a pointer event, such as a mouse click, with a default hot spot not overlaying a graphical display element, or graphical user interface (GUI) object (e.g., icon, hypertext link, window tool bar), the object may nonetheless be selected if another hot spot on the pointer overlays the object, e.g., by resignaling the pointer event with the alternate hot spot. Advantageously, the resignaling of the pointer event may include selecting the overlaid GUI object, and/or providing feedback to the user regarding the alternate hot spots.

    摘要: A controller displays windows on a display. At any one time, one of the windows can be in focus. Each of the windows has an original position and an original size on the display. The controller determines, for each window, an elapsed time since it was in focus, and changes the position and size of each window in proportion to its elapsed time. The controller shrinks each window that is not in focus and moves it away from its original position and toward the boundary of the desktop in proportion to the elapsed time since it was in focus. Thus, the windows that the user is using heavily tend to stay large and near their original position while windows that the user is using lightly tend to shrink and move toward the boundary of the screen.

    摘要: A method, system, and program product for generating a window scroll-bar. In the preferred embodiment, a controller displays the window scroll-bar on a display screen. The window scroll-bar contains sections associated with respective windows on the display. The window scroll-bar also contains a slider, which moves within a section and between sections. As the slider moves within a particular section, the window associated with that section moves on the display toward the nearest boundary of the display. Thus, by moving the window scroll-bar slider, the user can move overlapping windows out of the way and find the window of interest.

    摘要: A computer system, program product and method that monitor the threads executing within a region of a computer program during debugging. This region may be a plurality of nonadjacent sections of code, each with defined entry and exit addresses identified by control points. Some or all threads may be halted depending on a predetermined criteria related to threads of interest or the number of threads executing in the region. Of special interest is monitoring for a thread count so that timing errors may be analyzed for when some plurality of threads simultaneously execute within the region. Moreover, in the illustrative embodiment, control points are implemented for thread monitoring in a manner similar to a break point, utilizing a break point table to determine whether a system exception is due to a break point or to a thread monitor control point. If the latter, program execution continues after storing the thread identifier in a record for the thread monitor control point in the break point table.

    摘要: A portable phone is equipped with a position detector that detects the geographical position of the portable phone, and a telephone system may ring one or more land-based phones or portable phones according to the geographical position of the portable phone. One or more geographical regions are defined, with corresponding telephone parameters defined for each region. When a portable phone enters a defined region, exits a defined region, or changes between two defined regions, the function of one or more land-based phones or portable phones may change. The preferred embodiments thus allow changing the function of one or more other phones based on the self-detected geographical position of a portable phone. In this manner the convenience of using portable phones is greatly enhanced.
