20110217262 | Treatment of Ocular Surface Disorders by Increasing Conjunctival Vascular Permeability - A method of treating an ocular surface disorder in a subject in need of such treatment is provided. The method includes exposing conjunctival tissue of the subject to an effective amount of a vasopermeability agent that increases conjunctival vascular permeability. In some embodiments, the agent is a nitric oxide donor, which may be in a sustained release form. A method of screening a substance for treating an ocular surface disorder is also provided. | 09-08-2011 |
20120004562 | DYNAMIC MOTION CONTRAST AND TRANSVERSE FLOW ESTIMATION USING OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY - The methods described herein are methods to ascertain motion contrast within optical coherence tomography data based upon phase variance. The phase variance contrast observes the nanometer scale motion of scatterers associated with Brownian motion and other non-flow motion. The inventive method of calculating motion contrast from the phase variance can differentiate regions of different mobility based on the motion contrast differences, and can use the phase information to characterize mobility properties of the scatterers. In flow regions, the inventive method for acquiring and analyzing motion contrast can identify the regions as well as characterize the motion. Furthermore, the inventive method can determine quantitative flow estimation, the index of refraction variations, and absorption variations within flow regions. | 01-05-2012 |
20120036462 | MECHANISM TO COMMUNICATE AND VISUALIZE DEPENDENCIES BETWEEN A LARGE NUMBER OF FLOWS IN SOFTWARE - In various embodiments, techniques for communicating and visualizing dependencies between a large number of flows are provided. One or more user interfaces can be generated that enable users to interact with information needed to complete each tasks in an ordered or unordered listing of tasks. In some aspects, elements of these user interfaces can including functionality enabling users to interact with each tasks, navigate to information needed to complete each task. In another aspect, one or more styles of presenting information is provided that facilitates navigation to dependency information for each task in a more useful manner. In further aspects, elements of these user interfaces can visually communicate the above functionality and dependency information as well as additional information about each tasks, such as status information, ownership information, or providing an audit trail. | 02-09-2012 |
20120151411 | MECHANISM TO INPUT, SEARCH AND CREATE COMPLEX DATA STRINGS WITHIN A SINGLE DIALOG - A mechanism and accompanying method adapted for use with a user interface for manipulating complex data strings. In an example embodiment, the method includes providing a dialog box that includes a first user option to input data pertaining to a complex data string; using data input pertaining to the complex data string to selectively verify that portions of the complex data string represent valid portions; providing a first user option via the dialog box to employ data input pertaining to the complex data string as one or more search criteria to selectively perform a search of preexisting complex data strings; and providing search results in response thereto, wherein the search results are displayed within the dialog box. In a specific embodiment, the method further includes providing a mechanism via the dialog box to trigger creation of a complex data string that a user has specified via the dialog box when search results for the complex data string to be created do not include a match. The complex data string includes a Key Flex Field (KFF) code employed in an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software application. Hence, mechanisms for inputting, creating, searching, and displaying complex data strings may occur within a single dialog box. | 06-14-2012 |
20130061161 | HIGHLY PORTABLE AND DYNAMIC USER INTERFACE COMPONENT TO SPECIFY AND PERFORM SIMPLE TO COMPLEX FILTERING ON DATA USING NATURAL LANGUAGE-LIKE USER INTERFACE - Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for filtering a complex dataset. More specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide for using a filter implemented as a single, re-usable component of a user interface to specify and perform filtering on a complex dataset. For example, embodiments described herein can provide a consistent user interface for navigating and filtering the complex dataset that includes tree management. Embodiments also provide a single, reusable, componentized widget for declaring filters against the complex dataset. Additionally, or alternatively, embodiments described herein allow filters to be shared across portions of the dataset, e.g., across ledgers, across the dataset, e.g., across charts of accounts, applications, e.g., different financial applications, across pillars, etc. | 03-07-2013 |
20130074063 | MANAGING DATA LINKED WITH THE SETUP, INSTALLATION, AND CONFIGURATION OF ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE - Various arrangements for installing, setting up, and configuring enterprise software are presented. A set of business characteristics may be received in response to a questionnaire. The set of business characteristics may be analyzed in conjunction with various tasks of one task lists, wherein each task comprises one or more data gathering setup steps for enterprise software. Using the business characteristics, various tasks may be identified as requiring or not requiring user input because of the applicability to the customer. A task list that indicates tasks needing to be completed may be presented to the user. | 03-21-2013 |
20140123072 | SYSTEM FOR NAVIGATION IN A COMPUTER USER INTERFACE - Embodiments described herein provide various features for a unified and simplified user experience. A first feature (or set of features) provides icons for launching or accessing applications and business flows. A second feature provides a unified menu system including an icon bar with thumbnails of a selected icon arranged adjacent to the icon bar. A third feature provides a framework for a menu that can expose application objects from diverse sources. | 05-01-2014 |
20150074541 | DESKTOP AND MOBILE DEVICE INTEGRATION - A system and method for facilitating user interface interactions between different computing devices. An example method includes providing a first user option to select a first portion of a first user interface display screen presented on a first computing device; providing a signal based on the selected portion; and using the signal to display one or more items in a second user interface display screen via a second computing device based on the first portion and one or more mapping rules. In a more specific embodiment, the example method further includes providing a second user option to adjust the mapping rules. The first portion includes, for example, a table row or column. The one or more items displayed via the second computing device include, for example, a visualization based on data associated with the first portion. | 03-12-2015 |
