摘要： A user visiting a space is equipped with a mobile device in communication with a service system. Media items held by the service system are associated with various locations around the space and a user arriving at such a location is presented with the corresponding item or items. These media items are pre-emptively loaded into a cache of the user's mobile device in dependence on the user's progress around the space. Items can also be flushed from cache on this basis.

摘要： An improved method of matching a query string against a plurality of candidate strings replaces a highly computationally intensive string edit distance calculation with a less computationally intensive lower bound estimate. The lower bound estimate of the string edit distance between the two strings is calculated by equalising the lengths of the two strings by adding padding elements to the shorter one. The elements of the strings are then sorted and the substitution costs between corresponding elements are summed.

摘要： A method of high speed reading of data from an EPROM, in which a memory array is programmed based on device status at intersections of rows and columns of the array to store data therein as 0's and 1's, uses a capacitive overcharging and discharging technique to enable fast voltage stabilization without drawing significant current. A row containing the memory element to be read is quickly overdriven to overcharge an effective capacitance associated with the row to substantially the maximum level of the EPROM supply voltage which may exceed the programmed threshold voltage of the selected memory element. The effective capacitance is thereupon discharged to a predetermined voltage level below both the maximum level of the supply voltage and the programmed threshold. Then the status and data content of the selected memory element are read by first grounding an electrode of a source-drain path of a transistor comprising the memory element to cause current with substantially no DC component to flow through that path of the transistor. A sense amplifier in the source-drain path of the transistor is triggered to detect current flow therethrough as indicative of the data content of the memory element.

摘要： An integrated circuit device provides a choice of external pins (connections) that may be user selectable for coupling an external filter/stabilization capacitor to an internal voltage regulator. However, connecting the output of a internal voltage regulator to an uncharged external filter/stabilization capacitor (or to a capacitor charged to a different voltage level than the internal regulation voltage) through a low impedance path can cause the regulator output voltage to sag/spike if the internal voltage regulator tries to charge/discharge the capacitor up/down to equilibrium with the regulator output voltage. To minimize this potential sag/spike, the voltage on the external filter/stabilization capacitor may be adjusted in a controlled manner to substantially the same voltage as the voltage on the output of the internal voltage regulator, and then the internal voltage regulator is operationally coupled through a low impedance to the external regulator filter/stabilization capacitor.

摘要： For members of a party visiting a space with which media objects are associated, the shared experience can be enhanced by the sharing of such objects by the group members for presentation on devices for example carried by the group members. Where the media object is a streamed media object, the experience can be further enhanced by coordinating the consumption of the object by the group members. To this end, a server streaming the media object to a first device is arranged to respond to a request for coordinated consumption by establishing streaming of the object to a second device starting from a position in the media object that is dependent on progress of the streaming/presentation of the object to/at the first device.

摘要： An Integrated Circuit (IC) package is disclosed comprising an IC chip with a microcontroller therein having an n-bit data bus, and up to n pins electrically coupled to the microcontroller. The IC package also includes a control register coupled to the microcontroller for receiving enable and disable signals from the microcontroller. One or more of the pins have one or more functional block associated thereto. Each functional block defines a specified function for its corresponding pin. Thus, each pin having a plurality of corresponding functional blocks has a number of potential functions equal to the number of corresponding functional blocks. The specific function for a given pin is selected by the enable signal from the control register which selects the appropriate functional block upon appropriate command from the microcontroller. BY using pins with multiple functions, the instant invention permits an n-bit architecture microcontroller to use less than or equal to n pins.

摘要： A technique is disclosed for reading a memory element of an EPROM array embedded in a microcontroller chip which has been scaled down from a previous design by virtue of reduced line widths of a process technology used for fabricating the chip. The microcontroller chip has a predetermined supply voltage, and the array comprises rows and columns of addressable memory elements which may be selectively accessed to read data content therefrom in a low voltage mode in which the supply voltage initially rises and ultimately reaches substantially its maximum voltage during a read cycle. A regulated reference voltage is used to exercise row and column control in the low voltage read mode by tracking the level of the supply voltage up to a certain preselected level below the maximum supply voltage, and by clamping the row and column control voltage at substantially the preselected level despite increases in the level of the supply voltage above the preselected level.
