Abstract:

A method, system, computer medium, and other embodiments for integrating unrelated web hosted services with stand-alone media-based devices are provided. Users can access and control the media-based device conveniently with a web-browser through various portals on the Internet. In one embodiment, users access the media-based device through one or more unrelated web portals, so as to control and to program the media-based device in a single web session, and to see information both stored on the media-based device and originating from third-party online sources of information and services in a single integrated presentation.

Filed:

Jul 1, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/109023

Inventors:

Edward Kou-Wei King - Fremont CA
Darrick Taylor Smith - San Jose CA
Steven Harry Voss - Rochester MN

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

B23P 1900

US Classification:

29759

Abstract:

A clamp assembly holds an integrated lead suspension during assembly. The clamp assembly has a number of features for precisely positioning the integrated lead suspension while transducer heads are being mechanically and electrically connected to it. The clamp assembly works in conjunction with a stationary platform which restricts movement of the suspension in three directions. The clamp assembly includes upper and lower support plates which compensate for lateral misalignment, and a pair of clamps which independently isolate the suspension and slider while compensating for rotational misalignment.

Appl. No.:

7/752819

Inventors:

Edward C. King - Fremont CA
Anton Goeppel - Burgau, DE

Assignee:

NCR Corporation - Dayton OH

International Classification:

G06F 1342

US Classification:

395500

Abstract:

An architecture and method for operating a work station. The work station includes a CPU, a bus interface unit and a control line. The CPU is selected from a group of CPUs differing in certain operational parameters. The bus interface circuit is connected between an external bus and the CPU. The control line is connected to the interface circuit and provides a signal indicating the type of CPU connected to the circuit.

Appl. No.:

8/323420

Inventors:

Edward C. King - Fremont CA
John M. Adams - Colorado Springs CO

International Classification:

G06F 1208

US Classification:

395471

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for decreasing computer fetch time utilizes cache memory to store video data when the data is not modified by a write modifier. The video controller signals the cache controller over a control line whether the data will be modified. The data which is not modified is written to the cache memory and may be read from the cache memory when further processing is needed.

Appl. No.:

8/334769

Alan G. Smith - Pleasanton CA

Assignee:

CPU Technology, Inc. - Pleasanton CA

International Classification:

G06F 1560

US Classification:

395500

Abstract:

A computer system simulator concurrently models both processor operation and signal logic behavior and provides a high degree of user interaction and flexibility in the observation and control of signal values and memory contents during the execution of a simulation. During simulation, source equations for signals can be requested for display either through direct input of a signal name or through graphical interface with the simulation display. Signal equations can in this manner be traced back through several levels, which conveniently provides important information during the observation and modification of signal values. Memory areas may be associated with a processor and loaded with data to be executed by that processor during the simulation. The data can be displayed in both numerical and assembly code mnemonic form, and may also be modified by entering numbers or assembly instructions. The simulated processor execution may thus be interactively modified during the simulation.

Inventors:

Edward C. King - Fremont CA
Anton Goeppel - Burgau, DE

Assignee:

NCR Corporation - Dayton OH

International Classification:

G06F 938

US Classification:

395325

Abstract:

A work station, including a central processing unit (CPU), first, second and third integrated circuit interface chips connected to an external bus, memory and peripheral unit, respectively, and a local bus connected to the CPU and interface chips. Each chip includes an internal bus interconnecting operating units disposed therein. Each interface chip is adapted to operate at the same clock frequency as the CPU, but with operational signals generated on its respective internal bus independently of the CPU.
