20130282916 | AUTOMATION FRAMEWORK TO REMOTELY CONTROL DEVICES AND PROCESS ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS - In one embodiment, a script starts automatic control of a remote device. The script issues a command to the device. The script causes a marker to be set at a position in an event buffer. The marker indicates events generated by the device should be stored in the event buffer. The action performed by the device results in events being asynchronously sent to the event buffer where the events are stored in the event buffer. The script initiates a wait for routine that waits for a target event to occur before execution of the script can continue and receives the events from the event buffer where the events are stored in the event buffer. The events are analyzed to determine if the target event occurred to allow the script to continue execution where the target event was stored in the event buffer before initiating the wait for routine. | 10-24-2013 |
20150236942 | Remotely Controlling Devices and Proscessing Asynchronous Events for Testing - In one embodiment, a script executes code on a testing device to automatically control a control device. A media player on the control device interacts with a video streaming service. The testing device receives events from the control device based on the control device being controlled by the script to perform actions. The actions performed by the control device results in the events being asynchronously sent to the testing device. The events is then stored in the event buffer. The script initiates a wait for routine that waits for a target event to occur before execution of the script can continue and receives the events from the event buffer where the events are stored in the event buffer. The script then analyzes the events to determine if the target event occurred to allow the script to continue execution. | 08-20-2015 |

20110141925 | Measuring call quality - Provided is a method, computer program product, and apparatus for estimating the quality of a call in which a first user terminal will comprise an end point. The method comprises establishing an end-to-end connection between a first user terminal and a node, which end-to-end connection is via an access point of a network by which the first user terminal is connected to the network; displaying information indicative of an expected quality of a call in which the first user terminal will comprise an end point, in dependence on information indicative of the quality of the end-to-end connection; and providing call initiation means for enabling a user to then selectively establish a call between the first user terminal and a callee. Also provided is a method, computer program product, and apparatus for estimating the quality of a call between a first user terminal and a potential callee. | 06-16-2011 |
20120056972 | PREMIUM COMMUNICATION SESSIONS - Communication systems and methods for providing premium multiparty communication sessions between a plurality of callers. The plurality of callers may comprise an initiating caller who initiates the premium multiparty communication session but who does not have a status in the communication system which is recognized by an operator of the communication system for allowing the premium multiparty communication session to proceed; and a premium multiparty caller who has a status in the communication system which is recognized by the operator of the communication system such that the operator allows the premium multiparty communication session to proceed, wherein the premium multiparty caller is a different caller to the initiating caller. The premium multiparty caller funding the premium multiparty communication session may be transferred and assigned during communication sessions. | 03-08-2012 |
20120182381 | Auto Focus - A method of controlling a user interface to display participants of a call in dependence upon the participants' speech activity in the call, the method including monitoring the speech activity of the participants in the call and determining whether a participant is an active participant or an inactive participant in dependence on the participants' speech activity over a minimum time period of the call. In response to determining whether a participant is an active or inactive participant, an active participant is displayed in a first area of the user interface and an inactive participant is displayed in a second area of the user interface. The first area of the user interface is larger than the second area of the user interface. | 07-19-2012 |

20100315697 | OPTICAL WAVELENGTH SWITCH - Various embodiments of an optical switch device are provided. In one embodiment, the optical switch device includes a substrate. A photonic crystal, having a dielectric material, is applied on the substrate. An optical gain layer, having an optical gain material, is disposed above the photonic crystal. The photonic crystal is formed with a second-order distributed feedback structure to emit laser light perpendicular to a plane of the photonic crystal and a first-order distributed feedback structure adapted for reflecting light in the plane of the photonic crystal back into the second-order distributed feedback structure. The first-order distributed feedback structure at least one of fully surrounds the second-order distributed feedback structure and is arranged on two opposing edges of the second-order distributed feedback structure. | 12-16-2010 |

20100091370 | RADIAL BRAGG RING RESONATOR STRUCTURE WITH HIGH QUALITY FACTOR - A high quality factor optical resonator structure includes a substrate, a center disc formed on the substrate, and a plurality of concentric grating rings surrounding the center disc. The concentric rings are spaced apart from the center disc and from one another by regions of lower index of refraction material with respect thereto, and wherein spacing between the grating rings and the center disc is non-periodic such that a magnitude of a displacement distance of a given grating ring with respect to a λ/4 Bragg reflector geometry is largest for a first of the grating rings immediately adjacent the center disk and decreases in a radially outward direction. | 04-15-2010 |
