    摘要: A dock for interacting with a computing device. The computing device configures itself for operations based on its context, which may be determined form the dock by reading a value from a tag on the dock. The computing device may use low power transmissions such that receiving a value from the tag provides an indication of proximity to the dock. The value read provides an indication of a desired operation, and, in response to reading a value of the tag, the computing device may launch an application, pair with devices in the vicinity of the dock, or take other actions that configure the computing device. A universal dock, usable with computing devices of a plurality of form factors, may be implemented by providing an array of tags and, in some cases, a non-contact power supply.

    摘要: An efficient iterative, gridless, cost-based router for a computer controlled integrated circuit design. The fine routing process is used during the wire routing phase of an integrated circuit design and fabrication process. During the wire routing process, wires are routed between pins of nets. The routing process of the present invention is gridless and utilizes lanes that are defined based on the boundaries of objects. The cost-based router computes a cost for each wire path, and the cost is based on: (1) the manhattan wire distance: (2) the layers in which the wire runs; and (3) any overlap the wire has with soft obstacles (e.g., other wires, etc.); and (4) an estimated cost to the target. Cost computation is reduced by considering only obstacles within the layer in which a lane is run. The number of paths determined for a wire route is reduced by pruning possible paths based on the placement of obstacles within the integrated circuit. Further pruning is performed by picking the lowest cost child lane in cases when several lanes select the same lane. Paths are also pruned by stopping along any path whose work-in-progress cost estimation exceeds the final cost of a path already discovered. In multi-pin nets, the routing process selects that path (of equal cost paths) between a source pin and a target pin that also runs closer to another unconnected pin of the multi-pin net. When a source-target wire route is performed for a multi-pin net, the unconnected pin is treated as the target and the source is considered as the source-target wire route.

    摘要: A context dependent computing device. The computing device configures itself for operations based on its context. The computing device may determine its context by reading a value from a tag using low power transmissions such that receiving a value from the tag provides an indication of proximity to a location where the tag is affixed. The value read provides an indication of a desired operation. In response to reading a value of a tag, the computing device may identify an application to launch, identify devices with which to pair or take other actions that configure the computing device for its context.

    摘要: Users on a peer-to-peer network, particularly a local subnet or ad hoc wireless network, may publish first contact information to a graph or data store on the network. The first contact information may include a certificate with a public-key and a user identification, such as a peer name. Other users may discover the first contact information and use the first contact information to request additional information from the user. Data in the first contact information may also be “promoted” by adding the information to a trusted contacts database, allowing the user additional privileges. The user publishing the first contact information may be given the opportunity to approve or deny the request for additional information.
