Personalizing user interfaces across operating systems

A user-centered interface agent eases the problem of unfamiliar user interfaces on host computers. The agent operates by learning user preferences and typical behaviors and predicting the user's preferred user interface for different types of host computers. Most of the agent's learning is through observation, requiring minimal-initialization by the user. The interface agent consists of a learning program which operates on the user's primary computer, a shadow program which is installed on a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), and a remote program which operates on host computers. The role of the PDA includes the transfer of data between the primary and remote machines, and the PDA can also be the user's primary computer. On the primary computer, the agent learns a user's preference by observing the user's actions. The user may run agent-training module or directly query and modify the agent's current state of knowledge, but the user is not forced to explicitly teach the agent. The learning algorithm may be statistical, rule-based, case-based, neural network, or employ any other technique for reasoning under uncertainty. The automated way of reaching a usable configuration has a particular advantage for individuals with disabilities who require configuration before they can use a new computer system.

Integrated-circuit implementation of a storage-shelf router and a path controller card for combined use in high-availability mass-storage-device shelves that may be incorporated within disk arrays

An integrated circuit implementing a storage-shelf router used alone, or in combination with other storage-shelf routers, and in combination with path controller cards, to interconnect the disks within a storage shelf or disk array to a high-bandwidth communications medium, such as an FC arbitrated loop, through which data is exchanged between the individual disk drives of the storage shelf and a disk-array controller. A set of interconnected storage-shelf routers within a storage shelf can be accessed through a single port of an FC arbitrated loop or other high-bandwidth communications medium. Because, in one implementation, eight storage-shelf routers can be interconnected within a storage shelf to provide highly available interconnection of sixty-four disk drives within the storage shelf to an FC arbitrated loop via a single FC-arbitrated-loop port, a single FC arbitrated loop including a disk-array controller, may interconnect 8,000 individual disk drives to the disk-array controller within a disk array. The storage-shelf router can serve to translate FC-based communications protocols into one or more communication protocols appropriate to the internal links, providing for use of less expensive, non-FC-compatible disk drives within the storage shelf.
