This is directed to a case for securing and protecting an electronic device. The case can include a cover connected to a pouch by a hinge such that the cover can be overlaid over a device interface (e.g., a device display). The case can be constructed by layering and combining several types of materials, including for example materials having resistant outer surfaces, materials limiting the deformation of the case, materials providing a soft surface to be placed in contact with the device, and rigid materials for defining a structure of the case. In some embodiments, the case can include a tab that allows a user to fold open the cover of the case to form a triangular prism. The prism can be placed on any of its surfaces such that the device can be oriented towards a user at particular angles (e.g., a typing-specific orientation and a media playback orientation).

Wireless network demands continually increase as wireless service providers pursue additional service capabilities. In a cellular communication system, leased lines between remote cell sites and the corresponding Mobile Switching Offices (MSOs) remain a major operating cost. Bandwidth reduction by identification and elimination of payload data and control information which need not be fully replicated because it can be deduced from information accessible or previously transmitted allows fewer lines to support the same bandwidth. A wireless access gateway is operable to aggregate such redundant and regenerable data on a backhaul link between a wireless cell site and the corresponding mobile switching office (MSO) to provide low-latency, type specific lossless bandwidth reduction. The wireless access gateway identifies regenerable information and eliminates portions of the data which the device need not transmit because the data is redundant, or accessible or recreatable, at the receiving side. In this manner, the access device allows fewer lines to carry the reduced message traffic by transmitting only the non-recreatable data and eliminating message traffic for regenerable information.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method for content mining of semi-structured documents. In one embodiment, a semi-structured document is first converted from a document-type specific format such as HTML or PDF, to a document-type independent format such as XML. The document formatting, which contains basic level information about the document's structure, is then analyzed by a series of modules to develop a higher level understanding of the document's structure. These modules append information to the document describing the features which collectively comprise the higher level document structure. The appended information facilitates finding specified information within the document when content mining is performed.

The invention provides an LDA-based text classification method. The method comprises the following steps of: extracting and inputting a feature word set into a text classification model so as to calculate the probability of each type in A predetermined types to which a text belongs, and taking the type with the maximum probability value as the type to which the text belongs; previously training an LDA topic model by using a training corpus according to a set topic number K, so as to K topic associated word sets; previously verifying the text classification model by using a type-specific verification corpus, so as to obtain a classification correctness of each type in the A types; when classification is carried out by using the text classification model, directly outputting a result if the classification correctness, obtained by the text classification model, of the type achieves a set threshold value; and otherwise, calculating the weighted values of K topics corresponding to the text by using the LDA topic model, selecting the topic with the maximum weighted value, forming an expanded feature word set by the first Y words in the associated words of the topic, and carrying out classification again by using the text classification model. The method provided by the invention is strong in scene adaptability and high in result usability.

A two stage rate shaping and scheduling system and method is implemented to control the flow of traffic to at least one output interface. The system and method involves initially queuing incoming packets into type-specific queues and applying individual rate shaping rules to each queue. A first stage arbitration is performed to determine how traffic is queued from the type-specific queues to interface-specific queues. Packets that win arbitration and pass the applied rate shaping rules are queued in interface-specific queues. Rate shaping rules are applied to the interface-specific queues. The interface-specific queues are further distinguished by priority and priority-specific and interface-specific rate shaping rules are applied to each queue. A second stage arbitration is performed to determine how different priority traffic that is targeting the same output interface is dequeued in response to interface-specific requests.
