Display clipping on a multiscreen device
Embodiments are described for handling situations when a window or application is repositioned and clipped in a multi-screen device. In embodiments, if the window is repositioned such that it cannot be displayed entirely on one display, but would otherwise spillover or spill onto another display, the window or application is clipped. Such clipping is performed based on the size and location of the window and the size and location of the display.
Method for determining fleet control policies to satisfy a sequence of coverage requirements
Methods and systems for determining control policies for a fleet of vehicles are provided. In one example, a method is provided that comprises receiving a sequence of coverage requirements for a region and an associated period of time, and receiving an initial location of one or more vehicles of a fleet of vehicles. The method may further include determining a control policy for each of the one or more vehicles. Additionally, based on the determined control policies and the initial locations, one or more estimated distributions of the fleet of vehicles at respective phases within the period of time may be determined. According to the method, a score associated with the control policies may be determined based on a comparison between the estimated distributions and corresponding desired distributions of the sequence of coverage requirements. In some examples, the control policies may also be revised using an optimization technique.
Location based data path selection
A wireless communication device is provided that includes a cellular telephony module to access a cellular network, a wireless communication module to access a non-cellular network, an antenna configured to be in wireless communication with a plurality of compatible and currently accessible communication networks including the cellular and non-cellular networks, a mobile location module operable to determine a current spatial location of the communication device, and a mobile network selector operable, based at least in part on the current spatial location of the communication device, to select a compatible and currently accessible communication network from among the plurality of compatible and currently accessible communication networks.

Handset states and state diagrams: open, closed transitional and easel
A multi-display device is adapted to turn on and off certain device functionality based on one or more of device state and triggers. These triggers include a transition trigger, an open trigger and a closed trigger. Furthermore, and based on one or more of these triggers and device state, the device can provide feedback to a user, such as visual feedback, audio feedback and vibration feedback to assist a user with determining when the device is changing state. The operation of the primary screen, secondary screen, system and feedback options are also described relative to the beginning and endpoint of the device transition. Furthermore, the trigger corresponding to a transitional trigger where primary and secondary screens have a certain angle orientation and the trigger corresponding to a trigger point where the primary and secondary screens have a second angle orientation relative to one another are described.

RECONFIGURABLE USER INTERFACE ELEMENTS
Methods and devices for configuring and displaying user interface elements of a multi-display device relative to a device state and/or device orientation. More particularly, the device is equipped with one or more sensors that facilitate the detectability of the relationship of the primary screen to the secondary screen and the general orientation of the device. The method includes accepting a set of user preferences for individual user interface elements for various device states and/or device orientations. The method and device may configure individual windows, per user settings, relative to device state and/or user orientation of the device. The method and device may present, for example, a single set of reconfigurable and/or re-locatable user interface elements in different locations depending on device orientation and/or display mode. Further, the method and device may provide the user the ability to switch both display mode and user interface action simultaneously.
Analog Calculator for Wind Deflection of Rifle Bullets
As analog calculator for determining the deflection of a rifle bullet due to the effects of wind speed and wind direction consists of three members. The first member a disc that is marked on both sides with a series of concentric scales. The scales are arranged such that the proper linear relationship of a set of values are aligned radially at all points around the disc. The scales of one side of the disc are arranged for the purpose of solving for bullet deflection due to varying wind speeds. The scales of the opposite side are arranged for the purpose of solving for bullet deflection due to varying wind direction relative to the line of fire. A second and third member are fixed on either side of the first member such that they are free to turn on a central pivot point aligned with the concentric center of the first member. The second member is marked with a key for the respective scales of the first member with which it aligns and an indicator extending radially that establishes the values on the concentric scales of the first member that share the proper relationship for a correct solution for varying wind speeds. The third member is marked with a key for the respective scales of the first member with which it aligns and an indicator extending radially that establishes the values on the concentric scales of the first member that share the proper relationship for a correct solution for varying wind directions. The third member is also marked with a diagram for the determination of the proper scale for the wind direction relative to the line of fire. Both the second and third member are marked with a scale that aligns around the partial circumference of the largest scale of the first member to allow addition or subtraction of values.
