20090142055 | Control device and a method for controlling an optical data transmission, and a shared storage network system - A control device for controlling the optical data transmission in an optical burst switching mode between a source computer and a destination computer, the control device being connected to the source computer and to the destination computer and being adapted such that in case of a burst to be transmitted from the source computer to the destination computer, the length of the burst is determined based on a parameter indicating an available buffer size of the destination computer, and a predetermined timeout value parameter indicating a time after which improper burst transmission is assumed to have been occurred. After the burst length is determined and the traffic starts to be accumulated, a proposed burst reservation and transmission scheme, namely random burst eligibility time method, is used to deliver the burst. | 06-04-2009 |
20120184862 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PATIENT MONITORING - A system and method for patient monitoring using an array of pressure sensors, and a computer readable data storage medium having stored thereon computer code means for instructing a computer to execute a method for monitoring a patient using an array of pressure sensors. The method comprising the steps of: determining a value of a selection parameter of each pressure sensor of the array; selecting one more of the pressure sensors based on the respective values of the selection parameter; and measuring a vital sign of the patient based on data obtained from said one or more selected pressure sensors. | 07-19-2012 |

20100248778 | SCROLL WHEEL ON HINGE - A scroll wheel hinge assembly for an electronic device is described. The scroll wheel hinge assembly may be used for an electronic device that pivotally connects a flip module with a base module having a keypad. The flip module has a front face with an internal display and a back face with an external display. The hinge assembly includes a cylindrical rotatable assembly, a flip-closed position, and a flip-open position. More particularly, the cylindrical rotatable assembly is configured to enable the flip module to rotate in relation to the base module about a rotatable axis associated with the cylindrical rotatable assembly. The cylindrical rotatable assembly also includes either a free-wheel or a touch sensitive component on the exterior of the cylindrical assembly. In the illustrative embodiment, the touch sensitive component is configured to perform a scroll function that includes a scroll-up operation and a scroll-down operation. | 09-30-2010 |

20150356293 | SECURE APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT AND EXECUTION - Examples of secure application development and execution are disclosed herein. An example method may include parsing code of an application configured for execution on a user device to identify one or more sensitive portions of the code. Example methods may further include identifying a trusted execution environment, different from the user device, suitable to execute the one or more sensitive portions of the code. Example methods may further include configuring the code to provide the one or more sensitive portions of the code from the user device to the trusted execution environment during execution of the application on the user device. | 12-10-2015 |
20160044060 | POLICY SYNCHRONIZATION FOR MULTIPLE DEVICES - Technologies are generally described for generating policies for multiple devices associated with a user. In some examples, one or more policies associated with a user may be accessed. The policies may pertain to one or more computing devices associated with the user. The capabilities of an additional computing device to be associated with the user may be determined. Based on the determined capabilities, which of the one or more policies are applicable to the additional computing device may be identified. Based on the identified policies, a default set of policies for the additional computing device may be automatically generated. | 02-11-2016 |
20160094344 | MOBILE SECURITY USING CONTEXT PATTERNS - Examples of methods, systems, products, devices, and/or apparatus generally related to mobile security are described.
