20130067393 | Interaction with Lists - Techniques for interaction with lists are described. In implementations, a wrapped list window is presented in response to an item being selected that enables a user to navigate (e.g., via panning and/or scrolling) a list of items to view other selectable items. In at least some embodiments, a user can select the item and navigate the list via a single interaction. In implementations, a list separator is implemented in a wrapped list that delineates a separation between a last item in a list of items and a first item in the list. Further to implementations, logic is employed to determine whether to display a list of items as a linear list or a wrapped list. The logic can further specify rules for determining how to configure specific types of lists on a display screen. | 03-14-2013 |
20140372983 | IDENTIFYING THE INTRODUCTION OF A SOFTWARE FAILURE - The subject disclosure is directed towards a technology in which a first software version (e.g., build or check-in) that corresponds to a failure/regression is automatically identified. Software versions associated with a development order are automatically loaded and tested according to a search plan that narrows in on which version a failure condition first appears. For example, a binary search may be used that looks back to a previous version when a failure is detected on a tested version, or moves to a subsequent version when the failure is not detected. The search plan allows multiple test machines run tests in parallel on different versions, and adapts to the number of test machines available for testing. | 12-18-2014 |

20140134085 | FLUID FLOW MIXER - An apparatus is provided for injecting and mixing a treating agent into a fluid stream. The apparatus comprises at least one pipe having a treating agent flowing therethrough. A flow mixer having a planar middle section with two furcated sides is disposed along the length of the pipe. Each furcated side may include at least two branches, each of which may have a flattened outer edge. The pipe has holes that may inject the treating agent towards the planar middle section. Adjacent flow mixers are separated by a distance. As fluid flows into and past the flow mixers, the injected treating agent is mixed with the fluid stream and the mixing is enhanced in turbulent mixing zones in between the flow mixers. | 05-15-2014 |

20090261855 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INCORPORATING ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE ANALYSIS IN LOW VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLIES - A method and system for incorporating electronic signature analysis in a low voltage power supply in order to monitor current centrally. The electrical loads that are powered by the low voltage power supply can be tested individually via an automatic test routine by measuring and scaling of current through a differential amplifier. The current consumption of each electrical load can be measured by analyzing a “delta” in the current draw of each electrical load's ON and OFF condition. This value can be compared against a stored table of high and low limits for each electrical load. If a load's current is found to be outside the limits, it will be logged for an appropriate user to make repairs. A precision resistor (or other current sensing device) can be inserted in series with the output (or outputs) of the low voltage power supply, while in test mode, to allow the automatic test routine to run, and then be shorted out for normal operation. | 10-22-2009 |

20140005961 | OCCUPANCY SENSING | 01-02-2014 |
20140169134 | ZONE CONTROLLER - A method includes transmitting a measurement command from a controller to an occupancy sensor with an address that corresponds to an occupancy sensor identifier. The measurement command causes the occupancy sensor to transmit an ultrasonic signal into a parking space, receive echo signals reflected back to the occupancy sensor, and determine, based on the echo signals, whether the associated parking space is occupied or empty. The method includes subsequently sending a status check to the occupancy sensor and receiving a response that includes the occupancy sensor's determination as to whether the associated parking space is occupied or empty. The method also includes calibrating the occupancy sensors from the controller. | 06-19-2014 |
