摘要:
A method of organizing icons on a desktop into groups and displaying the icon groups in segments on the desktop. The present invention comprises a Configuration Program (CP), an Icon Grouping Program (IGP), and an Icon Organization Program (IOP). The CP allows a user to define at least one segment on the desktop. The user defines the segment location, the segment size, the types of icons associated with the segment, the icon organization within the segment, and whether the segment covers the desktop wallpaper. The IGP analyzes the icons and places the icons into the proper segments based on the type of application associated with the icon. The IOP organizes the icons within each segment using the icon organization specified by the user in the CP. The IOP also organizes new icons that are added to the desktop. The present invention may also be applied to a web portal.

An adapter operable to support a computing device is provided. The adapter includes a support plate. The support plate has a top surface and a bottom surface. A connector is provided from the bottom surface to removably mount the support plate to a support stand. A latch is also provided from the top surface to secure a computing device to the support plate.
摘要:
Allocation of resources in a heterogeneous computing environment is facilitated. A resource manager of the heterogeneous computing environment obtains information that describes which nodes of the heterogeneous computing environment are capable of supporting additional operating systems and platforms over and above their native operating systems and platforms. This information is then used by the resource manager in allocating resources to satisfy a particular job.

Electronic devices such as computers and handheld devices are provided. The electronic devices may have electrical components such as displays that are driven by driver circuitry. During operation, the driver circuitry may generate radio-frequency noise. Communications circuitry in the electronic devices may be shielded from the radio-frequency noise by radio-frequency shielding structures. The shielding structures may be mounted on portions of the display module, on a cover glass layer, or on other structures such as housing structures. The radio-frequency shielding structures may be formed from one or more metal segments. The metal segments may run along edges of the display. A device housing may have a ground formed from a conductive peripheral member that runs around peripheral edges of the housing and a conductive plate that is connected to the conductive peripheral member. The radio-frequency shielding structure may be connected to the ground using conductive structures.

The present invention provides manufacturing of and the use of novel polycarbamates and polycarbamides and their condensation reaction products formed by reacting with formaldehyde as wood composite binder resins and in other applications. These resins have thermosetting capabilities and usefulness as binders for wood and other materials with superior resin properties of low cost, colorlessness, exceptionally good binding, and fast curing characteristics, as well as very low formaldehyde emissions. The newly-designed and synthesized novel starting materials for the thermosetting resins of the present invention are diethylene tricarbamide and various polycarbamates derived from corresponding polyols.

The present invention provides a method, system and program product for deploying, allocating and providing backup for an autonomic sensor network ecosystem. Under the present invention, the autonomic sensor network ecosystem includes: (1) a set (e.g., one or more) of sensor networks for storing data components; (2) a set of sensor collector information gateways in communication with the sensor networks; and (3) a set of enterprise gateways and storage hubs (hereinafter enterprise gateways). Each sensor network includes a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer. The super peer manages the sensor network and communicates with the set of sensor collector information gateways. The autonomic sensor network ecosystem of the present invention is deployed and allocated in such a manner that backup and resiliency is provided.
摘要:
Under the present invention, when a wireless device user is authenticated by a provider of wireless connectivity, certain information is communicated from the wireless device to a server maintained in the location of the user. Such information includes, among other things, information identifying the location of the wireless device. This information is typically maintained in a table or the like. After a data connection has been established with a public network, the information will be communicated to the provider of the public network and will be used thereby to track the location of the wireless device and/or user. In addition, the provider of the public network can query the server when updates to the information are desired. At this or any other time, the wireless device can be queried for any such updates.

An exemplary multiprotocol cache includes a plurality of data storage cells; and a plurality of cache servers operatively connected to the data storage cells, wherein each of the plurality of cache servers comprises a cache for caching data for the plurality of data storage cells.
摘要:
Under the present invention, a wireless sensor network comprising a plurality of peer to peer nodes is provided. Each node in the network includes, among other things, a sensor for detecting environmental factors. When a potential failure is detected within a node, the node will query its neighboring nodes to determine whether they have the capability to store any data component(s) currently stored within the potentially failing node. Based on the querying, the data component(s) in the potentially failing node are copied to one or more of the neighboring nodes. Thereafter, details of the copying can be broadcast to other nodes in the network, and any routing tables that identify the locations of data components stored throughout the wireless sensor network can be updated
