30 Jun 2014TL;DR: In this paper, information about a device may be emotively conveyed to a user of the device by transforming input indicative of an operating state of a device into data representing a simulated emotional state.
Abstract: Information about a device may be emotively conveyed to a user of the device. Input indicative of an operating state of the device may be received. The input may be transformed into data representing a simulated emotional state. Data representing an avatar that expresses the simulated emotional state may be generated and displayed. A query from the user regarding the simulated emotional state expressed by the avatar may be received. The query may be responded to.

05 Aug 1996TL;DR: In this article, a multi-cylinder spark ignition internal combustion engine is described with two groups of cylinders and one group of cylinders may be selectively disabled by cutting off its fuel supply while continuing to receive air.
Abstract: A multi-cylinder spark ignition internal combustion engine is described having two groups of cylinders (10a, 10b). One group of cylinders may be selectively disabled by cutting off its fuel supply while continuing to receive air. The exhaust system includes an NOx trap (20) to store NOx gases while the exhaust gases contain excess air. During part load operation, the engine is run with one group of cylinders disabled most of the time during which NOx gases are stored in the NOx trap (20). In order to permit the trap (20) to be regenerated or purged periodically, both group are fired at the same time for short intervals to supply a stoichiometric or reducing mixture to the exhaust system.

25 Jun 2012TL;DR: The prototype, IMP, presents a simple interface that hides the complexity of the prefetching decision and employs goal-directed adaptation to try to minimize application response time while meeting budgets for battery lifetime and cellular data usage.
Abstract: Prefetching is a double-edged sword. It can hide the latency of data transfers over poor and intermittently connected wireless networks, but the costs of prefetching in terms of increased energy and cellular data usage are potentially substantial, particularly for data prefetched incorrectly. Weighing the costs and benefits of prefetching is complex, and consequently most mobile applications employ simple but sub-optimal strategies.Rather than leave the job to applications, we argue that the underlying mobile system should provide explicit prefetching support. Our prototype, IMP, presents a simple interface that hides the complexity of the prefetching decision. IMP uses a cost-benefit analysis to decide when to prefetch data. It employs goal-directed adaptation to try to minimize application response time while meeting budgets for battery lifetime and cellular data usage. IMP opportunistically uses available networks while ensuring that prefetches do not degrade network performance for foreground activity. It tracks hit rates for past prefetches and accounts for network-specific costs in order to dynamically adapt its prefetching strategy to both the network conditions and the accuracy of application prefetch disclosures. Experiments with email and news reader applications show that IMP provides predictable usage of budgeted resources, while lowering application response time compared to the oblivious strategies used by current applications.
