A network for sensing, communicating and controlling where a plurality of cells communicate in the network through packets. A first cell transmits a sequence number and a retransmit flag with the messages. The messages are acknowledged by a second cell if the sequence number is different that the pr ...
A method for dynamically generating a graphical user interface (GUI) from XML-based documents. In accordance with the method, visual components or display objects for building a GUI are defined, as well as a layout hierarchy describing layout relationships between the display objects, specifying how ...
Processor implementation-specific instructions save a processor state in a system memory and attempt to correct the error. Control is then transferred to processor-independent instructions. Control is returned to the processor implementation-specific instructions which then return to an interrupted ...
Methods and apparatuses for providing cryptographic assurance based on ranges as to whether a particular data item is on a list. According to one computer-implemented method, the items on the list are sorted and ranges are derived from adjacent pairs of data items on the list. Next, cryptographicall ...
A method and apparatus employed in an X-ray apparatus for compensating for attenuation caused by a subject to perform an improved X-ray exposure. A table is created comprising entries accessible via power and attenuation values. Each of the entries includes a first value T representing a time for ra ...
A method and apparatus for providing transparent, real time reconstruction of corrupted data from a redundant array of storage units in a manner that imposes no performance degradation for reconstruction of such corrupted data and that does not tie up system resources. The present invention is parti ...
A method and apparatus for displaying the relationship of objects in a factory on a computer system display. A first icon is displayed, the first icon representing a first class of factory objects. A second icon is displayed, the second icon representing a second class of factory objects. A first co ...
The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for reducing the memory required to store bind variable descriptors in a database system. In embodiments of the invention, bind variable descriptors continue to be maintained in the shared cursor objects, but bind variables are no longer maintai ...
A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor body having a top surface and laterally opposite sidewalls is formed on an insulating substrate. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the top surface of the semiconductor body and on the laterally opposite sidewalls of the semiconductor body. A gate ...
A method and apparatus that allows a remote aircraft to be controlled by a remotely located pilot who is presented with a synthesized three-dimensional projected view representing the environment around the remote aircraft. According to one aspect of the invention, a remote aircraft transmits its th ...
