Abstract: A method and computer-readable medium are provided for optimized paragraph layout. According to the method, a line-by-line paragraph layout is generated determine a maximum penalty for a paragraph. One or more layout nodes may be generated that include data representing a possible layout of the paragraph to a point within a backing store and identifying any changes to a geometry of the page caused by the layout of the paragraph defined by the layout node. A penalty is also calculated for each of the layout nodes. Each layout node that has a penalty less than the maximum penalty calculated during the line-by-line formatting processing is added to the node pool. This process repeats until only a single layout node remains in the node pool that represents the entire paragraph of text.

Abstract: A keypad has a substrate carrying an array of sense elements arranged to change state in response to keypad operation, a flexible cover disposed above the substrate and having an exposed surface defining an array of independent key regions, with combination key regions defined in interstices between adjacent independent key regions, and an array of discrete snap elements extending between the cover and the substrate and spacing the cover from the substrate. The snap elements are each located between two adjacent independent key regions and adapted to resiliently collapse as a non-linear response to local pressure against the exposed cover surface to provide tactile feedback of keypad operation. A telephone with the keypad has columns of combination key regions that include multiple numerical columns together including numerical regions corresponding to numerals 0 through 9, with each numerical column containing a plurality of the numerical regions, and at least one other column containing key regions corresponding to punctuation symbols. A touch-sensitive input device (such as a keypad or touchpad, for example) has an exposed, continuous surface defining a planar area, and a grid of sense elements coextensive with the area of the exposed surface and responsive to engagement of the exposed surface by an operator to establish a position of said engagement on the exposed surface. The exposed surface varies in elevation across its planar area to form a series of tactile features. A method of interpreting IACK keypad input includes sensing keypad input corresponding to a combined actuation of a plurality of independent key regions of the keypad, and comparing the sensed input to defined sets of independent key inputs corresponding to combination keys. For sensed inputs found to correspond to a plurality of independent key regions associated with a combination key, a combination key input is registered. For sensed inputs found not to correspond to any combination key, the sensed input is compared to recorded custom chorded key associations. For sensed inputs found to correspond to a recorded custom chorded key association, a sequence of characters according to the corresponding chorded key association is registered. A method of dialing a telephone includes entering a desired sequence of alphanumeric characters including at least one alpha character. The telephone generates a corresponding sequence of numerals by transposing the alpha character into one of the numerals 2 through 9 according to standard telephone keypad letter-number correspondence.

Abstract: A distributor device 10 includes a container 44, which is arranged in use to contain retroreflective articles. The articles are supplied to the container via a supply line 34 and, in use, are arranged to exit the container through an outlet and down a distributing chute 36 on to a target material. A restrictor 18, which is arranged in the region of the outlet, is operable to determine the extent at which the outlet is restricted and therefore the egress of the articles from the container. The distributor device further comprises an agitator 78, which, in use, assists the articles from moving past the restrictor and also from locking together in the container or supply line. In use, relative movement of the distributor and target material, which includes a pre-laid encapsulant surface, assists in the distribution of a retroreflective deposit that has a different retroreflective character from light emanating from a common source.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for implementing the Hunt group function without the necessity of using any proxy functionalities. The Hunt group function can be independent of the signaling protocol being used by VoIP terminals. Consequently, there is no need of any special or proprietary signaling protocol to be implemented. Instead of registering all members or all VoIP nodes belonging to a Hunt group to a registration entity, only one pre-configured VoIP node belonging to the particular Hunt group needs to be registered. Likewise, instead of all members or VoIP nodes in the Hunt group registering with a registration entity and having a Hunt group number in addition to their usual peer-to-peer numbers, only one pre-configured VoIP node in the Hunt group would perform the registration and be registered with the Hunt group number. All incoming calls to the Hunt group will be directed by the gateway to the pre-configured VoIP node first. A method of the present embodiment may be performed by the gateway to ensure that the incoming call is forwarded to a VoIP node within the Hunt group.
