A method and an apparatus are provided for controlling content in an electronic device. A gesture detection area that detects a gesture of a user is displayed, when a display unit of the electronic device is deformed during content playback. A range of the gesture detection area corresponds to a degree of the content playback. The gesture of the user is detected in the gesture detection area. The content being played is controlled in accordance with the gesture of the user.

A processor performs processing which includes inputting a plurality of mathematical formulas in response to operations performed on operation keys, displaying a list of the plurality of inputted mathematical formulas on a display, and displaying, in different display forms, a first mathematical formula which is a mathematical formula currently being inputted and a second mathematical formula which is a mathematical formula previously inputted, when displaying the list of the plurality of mathematical formulas.

An electronic device including an application processor and a communication processor. The communication processor, for managaging a resource memory, configured to monitor an occupancy rate of the resource memory for detecting a memory leakage, release a network connection when the electronic device is in an idle state, in response to the detecting of the memory leakage, initialize the resource memory after the network connection is released, and reconnect the network connection, wherein the idle state indicates a state when the electronic device is not occupied or used by a user, and wherein the initialization is performed at a non-flag area from among the resource memory.

A device for soft tissue biopsy or excision for either handheld or stereotactic table use may comprise a work element configured to selectively open and close at least one articulable beak configured to penetrate tissue, or follow a central lumen of another device or over a wire in a longitudinal direction. Flush and vacuum tissue transport mechanisms may be incorporated. A single tube or an inner sheath and an outer sheath which may be co-axially disposed relative to a work element may be configured to actuate a beak or beaks and provisions for simultaneous beak closing under rotation may be incorporated.

A matrix operation method performed by a computer includes the following, displaying on a display a matrix in which a plurality of components are arrayed; and changing an arrangement of at least one of the plurality of components in the matrix displayed on the display based on a gesture operation to the matrix.

A selector shape may serve as the background to a configurable composite shape and may include one or more expressions that are evaluated to select between several composite shape definitions via links to the definition. Each selector shape includes an animation expression and a lookup table converter to select an identifier of the composite definition to be loaded and displayed. When the value of the animation expression changes, the value may be matched to the name of a new composite definition using the lookup table, and the new definition may be displayed. The previously-used composite definition may then be marked for removal by a caching system, and removed. These selector shapes also enable the same graphic element to be used in displays designed for different types of display devices, such as display devices having large display screens, standard computer screens and very small display screens.

Computer-implemented systems and methods of providing content to a user via communications between a content provider and a user over a plurality of disparate communication channels are provided. Content is provided to a user via a first transmission channel for presentation. Metadata associated with the content identifies a content event trigger at a point in the content. The content is displayed using a first presentation system. When the content event trigger is reached, supplemental content is provided to the user via a second transmission channel. The supplemental content is provided to the user during continued presentation of the content, and the supplemental content is provided to the user using a content providing system that is wholly separate from the first presentation system.

Audio bible players with a 6-digit numerical indexing system to the chapter level or a 9-digit numerical indexing system to the verse level are disclosed. Users can not only find a particular chapter or verse of the bible quickly, but also can switch to the same chapter or verse of a different translation easily for comparison study. They are easy and convenient to use, and are great tools for bible study, bible memorization, language study, and sharing bible with people in other languages, etc.

A graph display control device includes a formula display control unit, a graph display control unit and an operation-display-element display control unit. The formula display control unit displays a plurality of function formulas containing parameters on a display unit. The graph display control unit displays a graph image corresponding to one of the plurality of function formulas displayed by the formula display control unit, on the display unit so as to be discriminable according to the plurality of function formulas. The operation-display-element display control unit discriminately displays an operation display element for designating a numerical value of a parameter contained in at least one of the plurality of function formulas, on the display unit in correspondence to the graph images respectively displayed discriminately in relation to the function formulas by the graph display control unit.
