摘要： Methods of providing information to computer users are described. In one embodiment, the method displays, in a navigable window of a display area of a user interface, a first contextual display associated with a first context that can enable a user to accomplish one or more tasks. The method further, without changing the first context, presents quick links to one or more contexts that are different from the user's current context and that are provided by the single application program. Each context is associated with a functionality that can enable the user to accomplish various tasks that are different from tasks that the user can accomplish using the first contextual display. The quick links are selectable to navigate the navigable window to a context associated with a selectable quick link.

摘要： Methods and systems of providing information to computer users are described. In one embodiment, the methods and systems can provide a ranked list of favorite links. The list can be based upon the recency and frequency with which a user accesses items associated with the links. A most recently added favorites list of links is provided that is based upon when particular links were added to a user's favorites list. The methods and system can calculate a union of the lists to provide a collection of favorite quick links.

摘要： An automated spread trading terminal receives from a user a selection of a spread trade indicative of a set of trading contracts defined in relation to the spread trade, and transmits to an electronic trading exchange a first set of messages including an order message such that an initial set of working orders corresponding to one of the trading contracts are rendered operative in the electronic trading exchange. The terminal receives from the electronic trading exchange a first fill confirmation message confirming the partial completion of a first working order in the initial set of working orders, and current market data indicating quantities of current bids and/or offers in relation to the trading contracts. in response to the first fill confirmation message, the terminal transmits to the electronic trading exchange a second set of messages such that a completing set of working orders are rendered operative in the electronic trading exchange. A quantity is reduced on order at a given price level from a first non-zero quantity to a second non-zero quantity for a trading contract on the basis of a bid or offer quantity in the current market data.

摘要： A pointing device with independently movable portions is described. In an embodiment, a pointing device comprises a base unit and a satellite portion. The base unit is arranged to be located under a palm of a user's hand and be movable over a supporting surface. The satellite portion is arranged to be located under a digit of the user's hand and be independently movable over the supporting surface relative to the base unit. In embodiments, data from at least one sensing device is read, and movement of both the base unit and the independently movable satellite portion of the pointing device is calculated from the data. The movement of the base unit and the satellite portion is analyzed to detect a user gesture.

摘要： A user interface for an information retrieval system is described. In an embodiment an output region for showing retrieved documents is displayed on an interactive surface. One or more movable user interface items, such as digital buttons or tangible objects, may be positioned in an active region. Each movable user interface item has a stored query associated with it and for example, the queries may be words or images. In an embodiment a user interface controller apparatus identifies any movable user interface items in the active region and identifies a spatial relationship between those items and the output region. In an embodiment, a query is accessed for each of the user interface items in the active region and those queries and the information about the spatial relationship are used to retrieve documents from a document database.

摘要： A system and method for filtering and organizing items from computer memories based on common elements is provided. Filters are provided for manipulating the items. The filters are essentially tools for narrowing down a set of items. The filters can be dynamically generated based on the properties of the separate items. The system utilizes virtual folders. The virtual folders expose regular files and folders to users in different views based on their metadata instead of the actual physical underlying file system structure on the disk.
