Disclosed are an apparatus and a method provided for displaying icons and controlling direct link menus in a portable terminal. The method for displaying icons in a portable terminal includes displaying only the essential icons of all the icons set in an icon area. All the icons are displayed together with an icon informing a user of generation of an event in the icon area, if the event is generated. The method for displaying menus in a portable terminal includes displaying icons direct link menus and data in a predetermined area of the portable terminal. A mode of the portable terminal is directly converted to a mode of a selected menu, if an icon of the direct link menus is selected.

File system cells are linked together to form a meta file system that appears to a user or application program to be a single file system. Each file system cell may have a conventional file system format, and can be indistinguishable from a conventional file system except for information, such as directory entry attributes, indicating one or more links to other file system cells. These external links may include direct links that are hidden from the user or application program and define a hierarchy of the meta file system cells, and indirect links that appear in the user-visible file system. The meta file system substantially reduces crash recovery time because each file system cell functions as a consistency unit that can be repaired only if needed. The meta file system also permits the file system cells to be accessed concurrently by multiple processors in a file server.

A point-of-care touch / click entry system can be used to replace and / or augment standard dictation transcription models in medical record systems (which comprise institution-centric data). Key word entry can better standardized medical record display, can be linked directly to diagnostic and billing codes to automate billing thus decreasing payers claims of fraud and can be used to insert data variables directly into relational databases to improve outcome analysis. In total the “clinical operating system (COS) and clinical information system (CIS) can quickly and accurately produce “longitudinal” lifetime medical records (which comprise patient-centric data). The longitudinal medical record can be used in accordance with medical record systems to connect patients, providers, pharmacies, clinics, hospitals, payers, and producers through a secure private network that operates in real-time at the point of care on-line or off-line.

A database system storing a data structure. The data structure includes a plurality of data nodes that each store a type and a value. None of the data nodes are linked directly to one another. The data structure also includes a plurality of context nodes that are each linked to at least two data nodes. The context nodes do not store data. Instead, each of the context nodes indicates a relationship exits between the data nodes connected to it.

A user interface is provided that exposes items such as developer tasks, commands, property settings, and other related information to a user. The user interface may be invoked in a number of development interfaces such as, for example, a designer or an editor. The user interface may be either an object bound interface or an action triggered interface. An object bound interface exposes a set of items that are associated with a corresponding object. An action triggered interface exposes a set of items that are associated with a corresponding triggering action. In addition to enumerating developer tasks, the user interface may provide a direct link to other interfaces that facilitate task execution.

A mesh generation tool that is programmatically integrated with a system-level design and simulation environment, thereby enabling the direct generation of PDE solver input from a system-level design and simulation environment and a method for using the mesh generation tool are disclosed. Automatic mesh generation and optimization is improved by making available additional information about the nature and purpose of certain design components to the mesh generation tool. Specifically, the parameters of the components in the device schematic, which represent a user-defined decomposition of a larger MEMS design into smaller entities of clear physical purpose, are made available to the mesh generation tool. The link established between the system-level design and PDE analyses allows the user to move between the two levels of abstraction. The mesh generation tool retrieves information from the components and connectors of a schematic of a MEMS device, and produces a discrete element model suitable for numerical PDE analysis by the finite element (FEM) and boundary element (BEM) methods. A direct link from a schematic model to a mesh model helps the user to produce an optimal mesh for PDE analysis, thereby avoiding considerable unnecessary computation.

An electronic device including an input / output interface operable to receive an input from a user and communicate an output to the user, a transceiver operable to electronically communicate with a computer network, a computer processor operable to execute instructions, and a memory storage operable to store the instructions, the memory storage further comprising a program module that is operable to: receive credentials for a proxy payment account, where the proxy payment account is linked to a primary payment account and not linked directly to a method of payment underlying the primary payment account, and make payment at a Point of Sale (POS) using the received credentials.

A method for determining links between target A and target B. The method comprises: identifying attributes of target A, identifying attributes of target B, determining direct links or common attributes among the identified attributes of target A and the identified attributes of target B, identifying open links from the step of determining direct links or common attributes, wherein the open links comprise identified attributes of target A that are not directly linked to target B, using the open links, determining remote links between target A and target B and displaying the direct links and the remote links.

Methods and systems for powering-off a Bluetooth device from a linked device are provided. A device can transmit a Bluetooth signal to a linked device to instruct the linked device to power-off. In this manner, the user need only turn off one device manually which results in all linked devices being powered off. This process can be initiated by a user through a device directly linked with the device to be powered-off or through a device that is indirectly connected, through one or more Bluetooth networks, with the device to be powered-off. This process can also be automatically initiated by a device when a set of predetermined conditions exist. Once instructed to do so, a device can initiate a predetermined power-off process which can involve terminating any ongoing functions and turning off various subsystems. In accordance with the present invention, a user can initiate a power-off of all the devices on a Bluetooth network through a single device.

An apparatus and method for electronically creating combined digital images of a person and incorporating them into a series of site-specific background images or film clips making it appear as if the user were actually a part of the original imaging sequence. As to housing, camera, processor, output devices, control boards, cables, currency machine; see Pat. No. 6,507, 361. In one embodiment the camera can move to take the images from different angles and in an alternative embodiment there are multiple cameras situated such that they sequentially capture and store a series of images to be incorporated into the product. An alternative housing apparatus is in a booth for automatically producing an imaging sequence of a self-portrait of the user integrated into a stored background or film clip, including a cash or credit card receiving device, a computer triggered by cash or credit received in the device, a movable digital camera or video camera to view the user, a video monitor for self viewing, and the possibility of one located outside the booth for advertising or amusement purposes. A series of stored digital imaging movie clips for selective withdrawal by the user where the captured sequence of the user is automatically integrated into stock stored movie clips and can be either output in an e-mail message posted to a board with a link to user's choice of e-mail friends' addresses for retrieval or a direct link to friend's and family's e-mail addresses or an output device with hard copy of personalized sequence to CD ROM or Video or hard copy print of a still image.
