摘要:
A system for displaying data in a portable data processing system with a plurality of display interfaces. Data is displayed within a first display interface of the portable data processing system. A user input, which is a change in orientation of the portable data processing system, is detected. After determining a type of change in orientation of the portable data processing system, data is displayed within the first display interface or a second display interface of the portable data processing system based upon the type of change in orientation.

A method and implementing computerized system are provided for enabling the setting of automatic door opening limits for doors. In an exemplary embodiment, distance measuring transceivers, such as radar devices, are implemented in the doors of a vehicle to determine the distance between a vehicle door and nearby obstacles which may obstruct the full opening of the door. If the measured obstacle distance is less than the predetermined clearance distance required for a full opening of the door, then the maximum allowable distance for the door to open without encountering the obstacle is determined and limits are set to prevent the vehicle door from opening more widely than the maximum allowable distance. In one embodiment, the door opening is restricted by mechanical limits which are established by a gear-driven or rack-and-pinion system controlled by a limit control motor. The limit control motor is operable to position a mechanical door opening limiting apparatus in response to the measured obstacle distance to physically limit the extent to which the door is allowed to open. Visual and audio signals are also provided to communicate related messages to the driver and/or passengers of the vehicle. In one embodiment, the system may be disabled when an emergency situation is detected such as when the vehicle air bags are deployed.

Substantially non-antigenic polymers containing pI and/or pH optimum modulating moieties are disclosed. The polymers are useful as intermediates for synthesis of amine-based polymers and in the formation of activated polymers for conjugation with nucleophiles. Conjugates and methods of preparation and treatment with the conjugates are also disclosed.
摘要:
Branched, substantially non-antigenic polymers are disclosed. Conjugates prepared with the polymers and biologically active molecules such as proteins and peptides demonstrate extended circulating life in vivo. Substantially fewer sites on the biologically active material are used as attachment sites. Methods of forming the polymer, conjugating the polymers with biologically active moieties and methods of using the conjugates are also disclosed.

A system and method for cooling structures by pulling air underground through corrugated pipe is disclosed. The system allows the air to cool down prior to being pulled back into the structure. The system comprises: a trench located outside the structure; an elongated pipe resting in the trench, having a first end and a second end; a first manifold connected to the first end of the elongated pipe, and a second manifold connected to the second end of the elongated pipe; a first airtight duct connecting the first manifold to the structure, and a second airtight duct connecting the second manifold to the structure; a duct fan coupled to the second set of ducting such that the duct fan causes air to flow through the first airtight duct to the first manifold, then to the elongated pipe, then through the second manifold, then through the second airtight duct back into the structure, thereby cooling the structure due to a naturally cooler temperature of the elongated pipe located in the trench.
摘要:
A mechanism for routing content, e.g., an electronic document, an invention disclosure, etc., to a person or group of persons, e.g., a reviewer/review team, for review and evaluation of the electronic document. This mechanism involves receiving the content and analyzing the content to generate identifiers of subject matter of the content. Subject matter categories are then determined to be associated with the content based on the analysis. The mechanism then retrieves profiles for people that are authorized to review and evaluate content. These profiles include identifiers of categories of knowledge that indicate areas of knowledge held by an associated person. A person is then selected based on the subject matter categories and categories of knowledge. The content may then be routed to a client computing device associated with the selected person or group or persons.
摘要:
A system and method for an on demand workforce framework is presented. A profession-specific framework includes core skills, dimension skills, and functional skills which measures a user's capabilities within an organization. A framework generator uses business objectives and market conditions to identify particular skills and corresponding progression requirements for each of the organization's professions. The organization uses a profession-specific framework to evaluate and rank users that correspond to the profession. In addition, each user receives an overall ranking that is based upon the user's individual skill rankings. In one embodiment, other frameworks may be generated, such as a business model-specific framework or a business function-specific framework.
摘要:
A method and apparatus are provided for remotely monitoring the status of a variety of illumination devices. A fiber optic cable coupled to a light fixture transmits a light display. Based on the light received, the status of the light is determined. The status is determined without the use of elegant and expensive electronics that are more subject to failure and with minimal power consumption.
