20090146292 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE THERMAL CONNECTION - A semiconductor device thermal connection used to remove heat from a semiconductor device, such as an integrated circuit, includes a metallic barrier layer on the semiconductor device, and a high thermal conductivity material on the metallic barrier layer that joins the semiconductor device to a thermal heat spreader. The metallic barrier layer may be one or more sputtered layers, and the high thermal conductivity material may be a metallic material, for instance including indium, that is soldered onto the sputtered material. The high thermal conductivity material may form a primary thermal connection in conducting heat away from the semiconductor device. A secondary thermal connection may be made between the heat spreader and a heat sink. The secondary thermal connection may include a compressible solid carbon fiber material. A diaphragm may be used to contain the carbon fiber material, to prevent carbon fibers from coming into contact with the semiconductor device. | 06-11-2009 |
20090215297 | INTERNALLY-SEALED ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An internally-sealed pass-through electrical connector includes electrical conductors for carrying electrical signals through the electrical connector, a connector body or shell surrounding the connector, and an organic adhesive material within the body or shell that fills space around the conductors and between the conductors and the connector body. The connector body includes a metal portion, such as an aluminum portion, that has a roughened surface to better allow the adhesive to adhere to it. The roughened surface may be a grit blasted surface. The connector body may also include a plastic portion, such as a molded lead organizer, to aid in positioning the leads. The adhesive may have a coefficient of thermal expansion that is matched to that of the metal portion of the connector body or shell. The organic adhesive may be an epoxy material. The electrical connector may have any of a variety of configurations. | 08-27-2009 |

20110222675 | CALL-HANDLING RULES - Call-handling rules may be provided. A user interface may access a plurality of information associated with a user and provide functionality for creating a plurality of rules based on the information. An incoming call intended for the user may be received and processed according to the created rules. | 09-15-2011 |
20130086175 | INLINE MESSAGE COMPOSING WITH VISIBLE LIST VIEW - A compose form for drafting a message is presented inline within a window along with a message list. For example, instead of overlaying the message application's user interface (UI) with a new window for composing a message, the compose form is displayed within a portion of the window reserved for viewing content of messages. While composing the message using the compose form, the rest of the message application's UI remains visible and accessible to the user. For example, the user may navigate to another folder and/or move to another message/conversation by interacting with the tree view/message list view. A draft of the message being composed may be automatically saved when the user navigates away from the compose form (e.g. by selecting another conversation in the list view). | 04-04-2013 |
20130198623 | Intelligent Prioritization of Activated Extensions - Extension prioritization may be provided. Upon opening a document in a software application, a determination may be made whether the document satisfies a respective activation rule for each of a plurality of application extensions associated with the software application. In response to determining that the document satisfies a respective activation rule for each of a plurality of application extensions associated with the software application a priority may be identified for each of the plurality of application extensions and a user interface element associated with at least one of the plurality of application extensions may be displayed. | 08-01-2013 |
20130198627 | Dynamic Extension View with Multiple Levels of Expansion - Application extension management may be provided. A plurality of related documents may be scanned to determine whether an activation trigger associated with an application extension has been triggered. In response to determining that the activation trigger associated with the application extension has been triggered, the application extension may be triggered and a user interface element associated with the application extension may be displayed according to a display rule. | 08-01-2013 |
20130198647 | Extension Activation for Related Documents - Extension activation may be provided. Upon receiving a new document associated with a plurality of related documents, extension trigger conditions may be evaluated. In response to determining that an extension trigger is satisfied, a user interface element associated with the extension trigger may be displayed. | 08-01-2013 |
20140171129 | LOCATION CONTEXT, SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION, AND SUGGESTIONS FOR MEETING LOCATIONS - Enhanced input field features and techniques for displaying and resolving location information in meeting items are provided. In response to a user's interaction with a place name displayed in the location field of a user interface for a meeting item, up to date information is retrieved about the location associated with the place name from a web service and displayed. The display can include a map image tile. In addition to enabling the displaying of up to date information, during creation of the meeting item, the location input field of a meeting item can present location suggestions from within the location input field, for example, as a drop-down listing of possible locations. The suggestions for completing a user's input text string to the location input field can be obtained from sources such as a web service, a mailbox, a managed database/directory service, a history cache/database or a combination thereof. | 06-19-2014 |
20140282248 | ENHANCED VIEWS WITH DYNAMIC MENUS - Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating enhanced views of information management applications. In an implementation, a suitable computing system or systems presents a link to a dynamic menu within a perspective of an active module of various modules in an information management application. In response to an indication of interest generated with respect to the link, the computing system presents the dynamic menu which includes various dynamic icons. Each of the icons provides update information and a link associated with a corresponding module of the various modules in the information management application. | 09-18-2014 |
20140282254 | IN-PLACE CONTEXTUAL MENU FOR HANDLING ACTIONS FOR A LISTING OF ITEMS - Techniques for providing an in-place contextual menu and user interface for email and other information management system triage are provided in which a contextual menu can be overlaid or replace an item on a view screen. The contextual menu can provide action commands specific to the type and state of the items selected in the feature view of the email or other information management system. A single recognized selection input, such as a swipe gesture, selects an item and invokes an in-place contextual menu presenting actions that can be asserted on the selected item. Multiple item selection is available through the same invocation of presenting the in-place contextual menu. | 09-18-2014 |
