A method is performed at an electronic device with a display, one or more processors, volatile memory, and non-volatile memory that stores one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. The method includes periodically comparing an amount of free volatile memory to a threshold level. The amount of free volatile memory is compared to the threshold level with a first periodicity when the display is off and with a second periodicity that is shorter than the first periodicity when the display is on. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the amount of free volatile memory does not satisfy the threshold level, deallocating volatile memory by terminating one or more processes based on priority levels of the one or more processes.

Methods and systems for managing memory allocation

A head and neck support and restraint system including protective headwear worn by a user; an article worn about the shoulders, chest and back of the user; and a dynamic connector that is disposed between and attached to the protective headwear and the worn article that dampens and distributes forces to which the head and neck are subjected during use. Such forces can include forces experienced as a result of acceleration, deceleration, or impact during a collision between the user and another person or object. The dynamic connector also supports and limits the rate and range of motion permitted between the head and neck relative to the shoulders, chest and back of a user when the head or body of the user is subjected to such forces.

Head and neck support and restraint system

An electronic device with volatile memory repeatedly compares an amount of free volatile memory to a first predetermined threshold level of free volatile memory. When the device determines that the amount of free volatile memory is less than the first predetermined threshold level, the device deallocates volatile memory by terminating one or more processes based on predetermined priority levels of the one or more processes.

Technology is provided for a wireless access device isolation cabinet for use in software testing on multiple mobile devices. The wireless access device isolation cabinet isolates each wireless access device and the mobile devices communicating with the wireless access device from other nearby wireless access devices. The wireless access device isolation cabinet can include an enclosure having a plurality of walls configured to enclose an isolation region. The walls are electrically conductive to shield electromagnetic interference from entering or exiting the isolation region. A wireless access device is disposed in the isolation region to communicate with one or more mobile devices. A device tray comprising a non-conductive panel and a pair of support beams is mounted within the isolation region and configured to support the mobile devices.

Wireless access device isolation cabinet

A computer graphics and analysis application improvement providing calculation, regeneration, and display of mechanism solutions based on inputted desired functions such as part positions by extracting functional requirements data from such inputted data so that the designer or engineer can view the mechanism solutions in space and thereby design the desired mechanism or mechanisms. The computing application extracts the functional requirements data (such as point and angular references) from the inputted function data, such as part positions. Using the inputted data, the computing application calculates, generates, and displays mechanism solutions based on the function or functions and provides the engineer or designer with meaningful visualization of how the mechanism would work, for example by showing how the part would move through desired positions in space, in addition to including the mechanism's or mechanisms' motion path, coupler curve, and other visual data helpful to the engineer in the design of the mechanism.
