摘要:
An apparatus and method for selecting physical cylinders (cylinders accessible for read/write operations) in a disc drive is provided. The disc drive includes at least one rotatable disc. The disc drive also includes a first head, which is positionable adjacent a first disc surface, and a second head, which is positionable adjacent a second disc surface. The first disc surface has a first plurality of greycode tracks and the second disc surface has a second plurality of greycode tracks. Each greycode track of the second plurality of greycode tracks corresponds to a different greycode track of the first plurality of greycode tracks, thereby forming a plurality of greycode cylinders, with each greycode cylinder of the plurality of greycode cylinders including a pair of corresponding greycode tracks. The physical cylinders are a subset (less than all) of the plurality of the greycode cylinders. The method of selecting the physical cylinders includes determining whether the first plurality of greycode tracks or the second plurality of greycode tracks demonstrates greater track eccentricity, to thereby obtain a maximum track eccentricity surface and a corresponding maximum eccentricity head. The maximum track eccentricity surface is one of the first and second disc surfaces and the maximum eccentricity head is a corresponding one of the first and second heads. The maximum eccentricity head is used to locate at least one of the physical cylinders.

One illustrative embodiment of the present invention pertains to a device. The device is configured to evaluate a Gray code value and to provide compensation for error in the Gray code value. Another illustrative embodiment of the present invention pertains to a method. The method includes comparing Gray code information with servo information. The method also includes evaluating error in the Gray code information based on the comparison between the Gray code information with servo information. Another illustrative embodiment of the present invention pertains to a data storage system. The data storage system includes a data storage medium, a head, and a controller. The head is controllably positionable relative to the data storage medium. The controller includes a means for sensing position information from the head. The controller also includes a means for compensating for error in the position information, to position the head relative to the data storage medium. Embodiments of the present invention provide unforeseen and inventive advantages over conventional data storage systems, including by assuring superior position evaluation and control of a read head relative to a data storage medium.
摘要:
A system and method for analyzing configuration changes made to a computerized system. A configuration analysis system is provided that includes: a system for generating characteristic data for a captured set of configuration changes; an analyzer repository for storing a set of analyzers configured to analyze configuration changes, wherein each analyzer is associated with a rule relating to at least one predefined configuration change; and an analyzer selection system for selecting at least one analyzer from the analyzer repository by comparing the characteristic data with the rules of the associated analyzers.

Under the present invention, a software product is analyzed to identify a set of applications/modules that are actually included therewith. Thereafter, information for the set of applications is identified from a library of information for the software product. The information identified is typically limited to information corresponding to features of the set of applications included with the software product (as well as any default information that could be included for all arrangements of the software product). In any event, the information identified is then packaged for future access by an end-user or the like. To this extent, the information can be packaged with the software product on a computer readable medium such as a CD-Rom, diskette, etc., or it can be made available for access over a network (e.g., the Internet).

In alternative embodiments, the invention comprises an apparatus, article, and method for modifying the properties of a style sheet having at least one rule associated with a document rendered by a display program on an output device, comprising: determining if the rule specifies a font size; comparing the font size to a legible size limit; and if the font size is less than the legible size limit, iteratively increasing the font size of the rule by a step size until the font size is greater than or equal to the legible size limit.

Under the present invention, when a configuration change for a computer system is monitored and a message corresponding thereto is issued, a response to the message will be observed. Thereafter, the configuration change, the message and the response will be logged. In logging this information, the respective times and identities of corresponding users will be stored together. Thus, if an error condition results from the configuration change, a supervisor or the like will be able to access the log file and see (among other things): (1) the configuration change that caused the error condition; (2) the identity of the user who made it; and (3) the user's response to the corresponding message that was provided.
摘要:
A system and method for confirming messages being sent within an instant messaging environment. An instant messaging system is disclosed, comprising a confirmation enablement system that allows a user to selectively enable a requires confirmation option for a contact associated with the user; and a send message interface that displays a confirmation requirement for messages being sent to the contact if the requires confirmation option is enabled, wherein the confirmation requirement must be confirmed by the user before the message can be sent.
