Abstract:

A system for sending and receiving multimedia transmissions over a network includes two or more clients and a server. Each client is connected to the network and generates and receives audio and video data via the network. The server receives the audio and video data from the clients and sends the audio and video data to the clients. During the transmission of the audio and video data, the client and server dynamically determine the rate at which to transmit the audio and video data.

International Classification:

F21S 13/14

US Classification:

Abstract:

Enclosed herein is a design and method for creating a decorative extruded translucent or transparent nightlight shape where the outer edge illumination of said extruded core shape is enhanced when said core shape is illuminated by an internal light source and also when illuminated by ambient light. This is accomplished by adding a rough bevel to the edge of the decorative extruded core shape to refract light back to the face near the shape's edge. The edge of said core shape appears brighter than that of the center of said core shape or that of the light source and is also visible from angles perpendicular or close to perpendicular to the facing edge of said shape, not just the side angle viewing delivered by a square edge. The outer edge illumination is further intensified by creating the translucent or transparent core shape element out of a hard or flexible material with edge glow doping. The outer edge illumination is further increased by using a cover diffusing element which obscures at least one portion of the core shape on the opposite side from the light emitting element and redirects light back into the core shape. In addition, new translucent or transparent core shape materials are introduced that increase the durability of extruded nightlight shapes, particularly those with intricate designs.

Abstract:

An electronic spreadsheet system of the present invention includes a Formula Composer having a preferred interface and methods for assisting a user with composing spreadsheet formulas. The Composer provides the user with simultaneous formula outline and subexpression (text) views of a given formula. Using the formula outline view, the user may isolate a particular portion (subexpression) of a formula for editing. The Formula Composer also provides a Formula Expert, which is displayed by the system upon the user selecting a spreadsheet function in a formula being edited. In addition to providing specific information about the selected spreadsheet function, the Formula Expert provides input fields which are specific for the arguments of the selected function. Moreover, the Formula Expert includes mode expressions or "templates" for assisting users in inputting correct argument information. Using pattern matching technique, the system may employ the templates for eliminating common user input mistakes.
