A method for interacting with a user through a smart watch can include displaying an interactive image. The method can further include detecting a contact moving continuously from a first edge of the touch-sensitive display toward a second, opposite edge of the touch-sensitive display. In response to the detection, the touch-sensitive display can display select function indicators in accordance with movement of the contact. The select function indicators can comprise four or fewer distinct, selectable icons.

The invention provides a method of student assessment comprising the steps of analysing a curriculum into one or more curriculum functions; for one or more students storing a student profile in computer memory; storing in computer memory one or more test items for the curriculum comprising a test question and at least one curriculum function indicator, wherein each test question is calibrated to assess performance in at least one curriculum function of the curriculum and the curriculum function indicator represents the at least one curriculum functions assessed by the test question; obtaining from a user a test specification comprising one or more curriculum function indicators; generating a test comprising one or more question items selected and retrieved from data memory in accordance with the test specification; administering the test to one or more of the students; for each student that took the test determining one or more scores for each question item in the test; storing each score in the relevant student profile together with a reference to the corresponding question item; and generating a report for one or more of the students that took the test indicating performance levels for one or more of the curriculum functions tested. The invention also provides a related system and computer program.

A method and a microprocessor controlled device for use in medical evaluation of the pulmonary system. The method and device incorporate two different non invasive evaluative techniques. Passive auscultation provides indicators of lung condition. Active auscultation, a different evaluative technique, provides information or indications generally not available or provided from passive auscultation. Combining the information from both techniques greatly improves the ability to provide effective medical treatment.

A system and method for indication of temperature exposures beyond a set of predetermined limits employs the salts of weak acid-strong base or of a strong acid-weak base compound as reactants. A device includes a housing and capsule. A first reactant and a liquid are included within the capsule. The liquid is chosen such that it expands upon freezing. The capsule is sized such that when the liquid freezes and expands, the capsule fractures. A second reactant is provided within the housing. The location of the second reactant and the method of attaching (if any) the second reactant to the housing may take various forms. When the liquid within the capsule freezes, it expands and fractures the capsule. Upon thawing, the reactant within the capsule escapes and mixes with the reactant located outside the capsule. A second embodiment is a time-temperature indicator. A flexible housing is used, allowing the user to manually deform the housing to fracture a capsule enclosed therein. The reactants combine to produce a color. The color is chosen to be a different color than the housing, allowing a person viewing the indicator device to quickly and easily determine the status of the object being monitored. The threshold temperature at which the device will indicate a changed condition may be varied. Exemplary temperatures include below the freezing temperature, at the freezing temperature, and above the freezing temperature. The capsule composition may be varied such that it melts at a predetermined temperature. Thus, the device may also be used to indicate whether a high temperature has been met or exceeded.

The invention relates to a watch having function indicator. The dial (4) of the watch is fitted with an indicator (10), preferably with a hand (11), which displays the function fulfilled by the control crown (8), respectively in each axial position of said crown, including the highly water resistant position in the case of a screwed in crown. The indicator is controlled by the axial movements of a sleeve (15) secured to the crown (8), via a transmission mechanism (30) including a slide block (35) that is mobile parallel to the axis of rotation (14) of the crown. The hand (11) is secured to a pinion (32) meshed with a rack (34) arranged on the slide block (35). The slide block (35) includes a flexible part (38) between a back part that slides in a groove (36), and a front arm (39) provided with a lateral finger (40) engaged in an annular groove. This transmission is compact and facilitates assembly and removal.

Instructions and logic provide for a Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) SM4 round slice operation. Embodiments of an instruction specify a first and a second source data operand set, and substitution function indicators, e.g. in an immediate operand. Embodiments of a processor may include encryption units, responsive to the first instruction, to: perform a slice of SM4-round exchanges on a portion of the first source data operand set with a corresponding keys from the second source data operand set in response to a substitution function indicator that indicates a first substitution function, perform a slice of SM4 key generations using another portion of the first source data operand set with corresponding constants from the second source data operand set in response to a substitution function indicator that indicates a second substitution function, and store a set of result elements of the first instruction in a SIMD destination register.

A dial plate structure includes first and second dial plates and a rotary indicator. The first dial plate has a first opening or a first cutout. The second dial plate is arranged under the first dial plate and has a plurality of function display portions exposed through the opening or the cutout. The rotary indicator is arranged between the first and second dial plates and has a function indicator to selectively indicate one of the function display portions by rotation. The rotary indicator is partially exposed through the opening or the cutout. The rotary indicator has, on the surface thereof, a plurality of index markers respectively corresponding to the function display portions. The first dial plate has a second opening or a second cutout to expose one of the index markers when the function indicator indicates one of the function display portions corresponding to the indicated function display portion.

An electric function module assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes an electric switch box having a pair of electrical contacts adapted for slidable connective engagement with a respective pair of electrical contacts of a switch cover. The contacts of the switch cover are electrically connected to a function indicator to operate the function indicator.

Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the display of status information associated with a network device using a plurality of multi-function status indicators, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs). In one implementation, a network device includes a plurality of user-viewable status indicators adapted to display status information associated with the network device. The network device further includes a processor adapted to detect a plurality of event conditions at the network device. A logic circuit of the network device is adapted to determine first and second sets status information to be displayed by the status indicators. A control circuit of the network device is adapted to provide the status indicators with display states associated with the first and second sets of status information without requiring user interaction with the network device. The event conditions may be multiplexed to identify associations between the event conditions and the display states.
