US Patent:

6526275, Feb 25, 2003

Filed:

Apr 24, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/556385

Inventors:

Brian Edward Calvert - Austin TX

Assignee:

Motorola, Inc. - Schaumburg IL

International Classification:

H04M 300

US Classification:

455418, 455456, 455566, 455435

Abstract:

A communication system ( ) employs a method for informing a user of a communication device (e. g. , ) where to obtain a product. The communication system determines an approximate location of the communication device and whether a particular requested product or one or more other potentially desirable products are available in a general vicinity of the device. When the particular or potentially desirable product is so available, a context engine server ( ) of the communication system conveys a product information request and optionally other purchaser-related information to multiple product providers ( ). The context engine server receives responses to the product information request from at least some of the product providers, wherein at least some of the responses preferably include offers to pay respective advertising fees. The context engine server generates a list of product providers based on the responses and provides the list to the communication device for display to the device user.

International Classification:

H04Q007/20

US Classification:

455/456000, 455/414000, 455/457000

Abstract:

A wireless communication system employs a method and apparatus for accurately locating a communication device in the system. The communication system includes a system infrastructure that provides communication services to communication devices distributed throughout the communication system. Either on its own or, more preferably, responsive to a request from a requesting device for an accurate location of a particular communication device, the system infrastructure determines an approximate geographic location of the communication device. Based on the approximate location, the infrastructure transmits a request to the communication device for a more accurate location of the device preferably together with a map of an area that includes the approximate location of the device. The communication device preferably displays at least the map to a user of the device and, responsive to user input, transmits the more accurate location of the device to the system infrastructure. After receiving the more accurate location, the system infrastructure conveys the location to a target device preferably identified in the original location request received by the infrastructure.

US Patent:

Filed:

Jul 25, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/279602

Inventors:

Robert B. France - Austin TX
Arthur H. Claus - Austin TX
Brian E. Calvert - Austin TX

Assignee:

Motorola Inc. - Schaumburg IL

International Classification:

G06F 944

US Classification:

395651

Abstract:

A program (818) utilizes a functional description of a data processor to verify that the operations requested by the user are valid in the current context of the development environment (10). The program performs each of these functions by checking both physical (820) and contextual rules (838) stored in a memory (9). The program ensures that registers and memory in the data processor cannot be illegally configured and, therefore, fewer programming errors will occur during the development stages of a new data processing system.

International Classification:

G06F 944

US Classification:

395651

Abstract:

A method, referred to as the interactive memory mapper or IMM (322), allows a user to program a memory (9) of a data processor (14) using a computer terminal (12) as a visual interface. The IMM allows a user to view and modify a pictorial representation of a data processor's memory space. When the IMM is utilized to allow the plurality of memory blocks to be viewed on the computer terminal, each block has visible attributes corresponding to the memory located at a memory address. Each of the plurality of memory blocks may be selected using a pointing device or keyboard and the blocks' attributes may be modified via an auxiliary controls subroutine (90) of the IMM program. The selected blocks may be created, moved, and resized to either add or subtract additional memory space, but is constrained to legal configurations determined by the specification of the data processor.

Appl. No.:

14/533968

Inventors:

- San Jose CA, US
Brian E. Calvert - Dripping Springs TX, US
Michael Betron - Austin TX, US

International Classification:

H04L 12/24
G06F 7/36
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Records are obtained from sources and typed datasets are assembled based on the obtained records. Relationships are identified among the typed datasets and at least one network comprising nodes and edges are assembled based on the identified relationships. A network analyzer assembles a vector and the vector is passed to analytics. The analytics then generate an output that is provided to a user or other device in the form of data.
