A method of testing interfaces between computer program modules. The individual cause/effect charts of each of the modules are used to test the interfaces between the modules by executing the test cases in the charts in such manner that each test case need only be executed once. The variables passed between modules are monitored and compared with the input conditions in the charts.

The invention describes a system and method which monitors user-selected events on a monitored computing environment for customizing a responsive user interface. The system records user actions into an event log and counts the number of occurrences of each individual event and the total number of events. A processing unit then calculates a first degree probability for each event. The number of events sharing the same first degree probability are then counted and used by processing unit to calcul...

Systems and methods of manufacturing etchable heterojunction interfaces and etched heterojunction structures are described. A bottom layer is deposited on a substrate, a transition etch layer is deposited over the bottom layer, and a top layer is deposited over the transition etch layer. The transition etch layer substantially prevents the bottom layer and the top layer from forming a material characterized by a composition substantially different than the bottom layer and a substantially non-se...

The present invention improves the human/computer interface by providing printable interfaces that enable a user to invoke and control computer processes. The present invention teaches an encoded physical medium suitable for use in interfacing a computer user and a computer system such that the user can control and/or access a plurality of computer implemented processes such computer applications and web pages. The encoded physical medium has a Linkmark and an instruction mark. Encoded within th...

A device is switched from a first physical interface on the device to a second physical interface on the device based on information in an interface redundancy group. The information in the interface redundancy group identifies the first physical interface as a primary interface for the device and the second physical interface as a secondary interface for the device.

An integrated circuit contains a microprocessor core, program memory and separate data storage, together with analog and digital signal processing circuitry. The ALU is 16 bits wide, but a 32-bit shift unit is provided, using a pair of 16-bit registers. The processor has a fixed length instruction format, with an instruction set including multiply and divide operations which use the shift unit over several cycles. No interrupts are provided. external pins of the integrated circuit allow for sing...

A system and method of displaying data representing an object of a class where the class has one or more attributes and each object has an attribute value associated with each attribute. The invention includes a collection class such that each statistic to be monitored is represented as an object of the class. The invention allows a software application to access the objects in a database. The invention provides a user interface (UI) attribute within the class that allows the user to specify the...

Report specification generators, interfaces, and methods are provided. Existing specification objects are selected from a data store. New specification objects are created as shell specification objects. Moreover, computations are selected from the data store. The specification objects, the shell specification objects, and the computations are organized within a grid. In one embodiment, the grid is used to generate a template report schema. In another embodiment, a preview tool populates the gri...

A vehicle driver control input assembly includes a seat with a steering wheel structure configured to provide non-mechanical steering signals to a steer-by-wire system. The steering wheel structure is collapsible underneath the seat for storage. First and second movable arm structures are connected to opposing sides of the seat and are movable between an upright position for use and a lowered position for storage. The movable arm structures include control input members to provide non-mechanical...

Programs stored in memory devices associated with microcontrollers controlling a display to a user are constructed in a language which uses layered statements, each of which can have a description portion, an action portion, and a unique connecting character.
