A computer-implemented method and system for selecting a subject advertisement in a sponsored search system based on a user's commercial intent (pertaining to the subject advertisement), using techniques for determining intent-driven clicks from a historical database. The method includes steps for aggregating a training model dataset wherein the training model dataset contains a selected history of clicks. Then, selecting from the training model dataset, a clicked slate (further selection of clicks), the clicked slate comprising a set of clicked ads, and calculating an intent-driven click feedback value for the subject advertisement. The method includes techniques for selecting a clicked slate using features corresponding to clicks received within a particular time period (the time period determined statically or dynamically). A system for implementing the method includes aggregating data from a historical database using selectors such as a position selector, a click feature selector, an impression-advertiser-campaign-creative selector, and a commercial intent selector.

A wireless network is connectable to an authentication server. Each access point in the wireless network includes a supplicant processing unit, an authenticator processing unit, and a function selector. When an access point is detected within communication range, the function selector selects either the supplicant processing unit or the authenticator processing unit. The selected unit operates to carry out or mediate an authentication protocol and establish a secure wireless link, protected by a pairwise encryption key, between the two access points. Because every access point can operate as either an authenticator or a supplicant, it is not necessary to invoke the services of a master authenticator. If an encryption key is compromised, the effect is limited and does not force the entire network to be shut down.

Disclosed are a display apparatus and a control method thereof, the display apparatus including: a signal receiver which receives a video signal; an image processor which processes the video signal received by the signal receiver; a display unit which displays an image on the basis of the video signal processed by the image processor; a function selector which senses a user's operation for selecting a plurality of functions provided by the display apparatus; and a controller which displays an on screen display (OSD) menu for selecting the plurality of functions on the display unit in accordance with a user's first operation entering within a predetermined distance from the function selector, and operates one selected among the plurality of functions in accordance with a user's second operation. With this, it is possible to provide an intuitive, convenient and reliable user interface for selecting a plurality of functions even under spatial limitations.

An integrated circuit module has a common function known good integrated circuit die with selectable functions. The selectable functions are selected during packaging of the known good integrated circuit die. The known good integrated circuit die is mounted to a second level substrate. The second level substrate has wiring connections to the input / output pads of the known good integrated circuit die that select desired input functions and output functions. Further, the wiring connections on the second level substrate provide signal paths to transfer signals to the desired input function and signals from the desired output function, and signals to and from the common functions. Also, the wiring connections form connections between the input / output pads and external circuitry. To select the desired input functions and the desired output functions, appropriate logic states are applied to input / output pads connected to a function selector to configure a functional operation of the integrated circuit module. The second level module substrate has connector pins to provide physical and electrical connections between the external circuitry and the wiring connections on the second level substrate.

A swing flap (10) for the entry and exit of pets comprising a frame (11), which can be fixed to an opening (12) made in a door or a wall, equipped at the top with hinged means of constraint for a flap (20), and a first function selector (30), designed to control the opening and closing functions of the swing flap (10), this selector comprising a knob (29) integral with a first pair of elements (31, 32) being shaped in such a way to allow, respectively: the opening of the flap (20) in a first direction; the opening of the flap (20) in a second direction, opposite to the first direction; the opening of the flap (20) in both directions; blocking of the opening of the flap (20). The first selector (30) is kinematically connected to a second selector (36), not equipped with a knob but with a second pair of elements (31′, 32′) which control the opening and closing of the flap (20) depending on how the knob (29) is turned.
