Hi, my name is yvonne, I am a project manager in Tablet PC and calligraphy recognition team. This article is about the work we do to improve the understanding of the window.
Microsoft has put pen calculation since the early 1990s, with Windows Vista recognizers handwriting for 12 languages, including the United States, Britain, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Brazilian Portuguese and Chinese (simplified and traditional), Japan and South Korea. Consumers are often ask us, we plan more languages and why a particular language is not supported. We are going to ship the new and improved language, including Windows and Norwegian and Swedish and Finnish, Danish, Russian, Poland, list continues. Let us need recognizers handwriting to develop new products.
The real cursive scripts, you do not have to learn to write in a special way to teach kinds, we have (or "training" as our calligraphy style window window has tens of thousands of people to learn more about you, when you use it in the past. Style 16 years we have established strong search engine, we know calligraphy attuned to these make them more accurate, fast and add new features, such as the ability to learn from your visit. Support the new language is not only to add new dictionary -- each new language is an important investment. It began in collection of native handwriting, next we analyze the data, through iterative training and adjustment, finally, the system and the continuous improvement you use it.
Data collection
The development of a new handwriting identify began a huge data acquisition efforts. We collect millions of words and characters of written text from thousands of writers from all over the world.
Before I describe the effort we collect, I am willing to answer a question, we often ask: "why can't you use existing identify and a new dictionary?" One reason is that some language have special characters or accent. But the most important reason is because people in different parts of the world in different ways of learning to write, even with the same language between countries, such as Britain and the United States. Characters, looks very similar to you can intuitively is actually different computer. This is why we need to collect data capture, realistic world characters, punctuation, and other shapes.
Establish the data acquisition efforts is challenging and time-consuming, because we want to ensure we collected data types of "rights". We selected collection in their own national laboratory, we recognizers development.
In the laboratory we began to collect data, we collected tools, configuration files, and write scripting language volunteers will guide us through the process of collecting. We prepared by the script is the english-speaking people in their own language, to ensure that we collected data, the correct data from different orthographically only the writing style and the data covered all characters, Numbers, symbols and symbols, is about a particular language. We all scripts are proofread and editing, before they are blessed for collection of laboratory.
Once our tools and scripts are ready, we open our LABS, and volunteer recruitment has devoted his handwriting samples. We need to ensure we have balance of the population of gender, age, education background, and left operation, the majority of the population of the country.
In the lab director instructions copy as a volunteer is displayed in the text of the tool collection in their own writing style. What is important, it is important to note that we want to collect writing samples, accurately reflect the natural way of writing. Therefore we encourage volunteers to take pens and tablets, "like" paper and pen. "if a volunteer often write in big, bending of stroke, and then we charge of his/her big, bending of stroke in set meeting. In this context, the high quality, the data refers to the natural writing.
Recognizing Improvements in Windows 7 Handwriting
Advances in typography and text rendering in Windows 7
About 80 percent of the time is spent on their computers to read or write. This is not surprising, then, when you realize text is essentially a machine to talks back to you until we have the technology, which directly into our brain, the text may continue to us in the way of obtaining information on the computer screen.
Research shows that good text better productivity. Essentially we are as human beings become extremely good cable, they caught the transition between the steady and rapid - the foundation of reading. We are good, we can do unconsciously with incredible speed the process of optimizing the text. This may explain why many can sink into a book for several hours, but some quickly become tired staring at a computer screen. Any visual to factor, effectively slowing us disappointed failure process. Good words, therefore, is the text, are tuned to support human reading process as with a minimum of distractions.
White uniformity around each letter, word, line, played a key role in keeping the pace, we pay attention to when reading the black elements. A line is too long, a words also too tight, not even any of these conditions are put us more and more from the news delivery is closer and closer to just send it is medium. The essence of art is the actual text text itself would disappear in your eyes, make it on your head. Learn how to prepare appropriate to send representation of a text is known as the font. As a printing workers say: good font is not seen, Only bad. As a platform is the role of the text will demonstrate the Windows, and provide software developers, great tools, used to create the best performance in software development.
Improving existing technology
People tend to cultivate the habit, usually with the passage of time, such as the preferred way to do so much. A more general and more likely to become our activities on it, we are willing to change. When it comes to the text on the screen, the same screen, you see, the days. It may soon become awkward, if overnight, even completely changed for the better. So, how do we go, we have become so accustomed to improve? We want to make sure to support what and improve, and support the existing methods. However, when we begin to understand this progress, let's take a closer look into the real challenge is nothing.
The implementation of the product design based on the text rendering pixel devices. The dimensions of the text in a certain scale will eventually converted to a fixed pixel in horizontal and vertical direction on the surface of the equipment. A 10% text can be transplanted to approximately 80 pixel height for a typical printing equipment, and can only obtain the same topic 600 pixels in 13 of the newsroom 96 monitoring text. The health has barely enough screen quality, we pursue good on screen.
Fortunately, in the past decade ClearType has largely enhance transparency qualities. ClearType relies on the anatomical structure, using the LCD pixels of human visual system with a typical energy distribution in the adjacent pixels, the launch of the sub - resolution in LCD typical 3 - color channels, each pixel offset the visual illusion creates a higher resolution raster quality at a low resolution device. As a result, ClearType text looks obvious lively typical text than liquid crystal displays (LCD), reduce the most quality problem, in display technology became popular for several years.
Engineering the Windows 7 Boot Animation
We use the word "character" with some of the features of the software, even the emotion. "And" light of energy used to describe the term of our personality of Windows. When we design the Windows and it became clear that these elements in order to show the personality, we need Win7 go beyond what we do with the splash screen.
From the perspective of design, we know the visual features that plays a key role in the quality and performance of the user perception. Our purpose is to make Windows startup beautiful and our window light and energy and personality, These forms appeared in their own nature became our design. Words, such as "light", "organic", "low", "environment" in our discussion. We know that in these might sound corny, but this is the general goal of all the Windows.
24 guide sequence of design, research progress were summarized, and create a user tests to assess their attack our goal. Design of different degree of saturation and/or color, complex, sports, and lighting effects. Here are some of the sketch design trip.
The final design in Windows 7 shows the energy from the four directions to form a project, from a window (of course not coincidentally, like a window window marks! . A subtle pulse that progress, another design details, strengthen the lively personality of Windows.
From the perspective of design, this new homing met us all the design goal, we send out excited. However, the guide must have a pretty face. From engineering point of view, we have some obvious, overcome the challenge, because we know that "time" or desktop users is one of the most important things. Love cannot be over your vision of the desktop faster and a lot of criticism, called "eye candy" - is not a sequence of boots.
Without compromising on performance
If we are always so simple, update the new Win7 start animation, we wouldn't have made a new level of performance and quality, we desire. In fact, meaningful code in order to make new boots change is possible even at Win7 animation.
On the vision, the loader USES a low resolution 640x480 screen, file size for green animation progress bar is very small. In addition, the boot screen have lower color depth - 16 (BPP). We increased the Win7 in 32 BPP's rich color, make your new boots animation. Update vista boots progress index, through the central processor, it is very easy to the I/O time, therefore cause accidental fault animation. With low resolution, color depth, screen, and the fault, we know that we have been working for us, if we want to build some fans, Win7.
We started with Win7 application USES a different mechanisms to start animation. It gets a pointer to the frame buffer firmware (or UEFI BIOS updates), and show a higher resolution image (1024 x 768). This makes the image, the kernel and guide the critical drive device is loaded into memory. Since the native to show no graphic driver loaded into memory and initialized by using CPU, animation is updated, through the graphic display of the frame buffer. We made an additional optimization - is the CPU use write - combined cache and accelerating performance.
Michael Fortin blog start-up performance in the early boot I/O, because it is the kernel, loading device driver files and other parts of the system files. We therefore limited size of a small region start animation, in order to avoid any delay introduction of boots. A larger animation of a large animation needs to be loaded, increasing the image file I/O. The bitmap image compression of animation as resources, then use WIM image compression compression. WIM image compression file size, reduce the whole, thus reducing the I/O to read them. It also reduces the footprints on the disk. A small area of the animation, and use a slightly lower screen also keep the CPU, frames of the frame buffer to update the cost is low enough level, and none of the overhead boots.
Another change, we not only to improve the performance of the quality, lower, but in the graph mode transformation. These changes appeared in the process of initialization graphics sub-system and Windows shell. In these reasons, boot, display smooth change (black) several times before the flash user login screen (or user of the desktop is only one user).
Feedback and Engineering Windows 7
Almost every E-mail, we receive and every comment to make us with feedback - for change, something to do, something to do more of less, etc. We've been talking about in this blog, role in each in a certain attitude is easier said than done. We can say for certain that we are listening to every comment, blogs, news, reports, sending feedback connections, of course, all of the projects and remote sensing monitoring data. This article discusses the changes of the products of the feedback kick-off. We will enter a certain change, we will continue to change (RC) the theme of the release of candidates in the next few weeks. Yesterday, you see blog, we will IE Windows update IE 7, 8, we also talked about the process of feedback.
Before the start of course feedback about seven window, we've written any code, and we have been running code of tens of thousands of people outside the effect of input and the characteristics and design of Microsoft Windows. As we have seen, input from even a fraction of customer can often for all kinds of choices - is usually in alignment, but as always in opposition. When we are, for Windows and closely with our clients, PC maker, enterprises and all types of users in the small business, education, fans, products and industries "thought leader reviewers", etc. We build the whole "blueprint" on the basis of the release of the great variety of input. As we design prototype or code running, we have more goals and specific feedback, using tools, such as usability testing, the concept of tests, benchmark studies and other technologies to verify the implementation of this blueprint. Our goal is to this level of feedback on its representative broad client, even if we don't have a 1-1 with each customer. Hope this article will provide some insights, this process of whole - tools and techniques, and the range of feedback.
In the first few weeks, we have a million in Windows and beta installation and use of Windows. This is an astonishing number for any test, but we know it is interesting, many people have a lot, to our work - but work, to help improve the quality of the window. When you use the beta - you will be built into our customer experience improvement scheme (anonymous feedback and telemetry, this is voluntary and choice in the RTM release). Only through the use of Windows in game 7, you are helping to improve product testing -- you are provide feedback, we are in a systematic way. This is a scale of feedback, we are talking about.
This week, we received in the peak in January of people send report every 15 seconds, a whole week, so far we have received more than 50 million of the report. More than 500 report, average for each developer browsing! We only through the use of six weeks, although many Windows and beta already looks like a window and old friends.
So far, the window wide application, 7 beta we have received hundreds of connection (MSDN/technet registered users) error report, test have fixed in the pipeline for the highest percentage of people than any previous error report Windows development cycle.
So far, we have fixed in the pipeline, in almost 2,000 error code (not on the window or third-party applications) caused by accident or hang. Although many beta users have said they are satisfied with the quality, we are the window to make it better, we experience the problem is fixed and important as usage.
So far, we have more than 10,000 million, recording equipment installation and these can use the driver in the box (i.e. to provide any download). The rest of the equipment are downloaded from the window by the driver updates and connected directly to the manufacturer's web site. We have recorded the unique plug and play devices identifier in 2.8m).
Personally, I have heard from email messages and answer nearly 2,000 people from all over the world, just from the blog began in August. I am very grateful to our discussion, I do my best to keep up with all of the letters.
We have all kinds of tools, we will based on to the decision-making process. A key factor, we are focused on Windows and role in decision data. Everything we do is determines the final product development to decide what to do in the infinite possibility, but the role of data is necessary, is a more conventional and criticism has become. The most important is super clear - data is not a substitute for good judgment or excuses to decide, one way or another, but it is absolutely the notice. This is true, where the data is not only an investigation team, but often or focus include "millions of people use Windows in sampling time. Prolonged
Some Changes Since Beta for the RC
This blog about the improvement in minority, the release of our candidates (RC) based on customer feedback. There are many under the hood of changes (bug fixes, compatibility and performance improvements, repair and improvement of the development team), we have no space, in this discussion, but we think you very enjoy some changes in our three characteristics: the core team made the user experience, find, organization, equipment and media. In this article comments from various sources to identify the information.
Desktop experience,
1. The window flip (ALT + TAB) and aviation peep
We have received overwhelming positive feedback regarding aviation peep and how it is to help customers improve self-confidence and switch Windows. Daniel wrote told us: "I wonder why peep never realized, press the ALT key + TAB window. The thumbnail look/have the same sequence, when you put the mouse thumbnail. It seems logical that they will showcase breaches". We decided to put the change, because we hear many requirements. People can still run quickly and flip through the window between cycle, press the ALT key + TAB keys, but when the Windows need more information force peep will appear. It is time for you to silence was delayed by running Windows, use the keyboard.
Figure 1.
Cars from the window peep trigger flip (ALT + TAB).
2. The window > sign + < # keyboard shortcuts
We often ask lovers keyboard shortcuts to simplify their common tasks. Efficiency is the key. We have a very powerful new answer keyboard shortcuts of tools, can only alienated mouse everywhere. Pressing the Windows marks (> > and < # + (order no quick launch) will only in the street. As our unity and taskband rapidly, now we are in the Windows and strengthen shortcut, so it can launch and switch. For example, if not run (figure 1 will then launch window mark + 2 (as in the street). If you are with a window, IE the same shortcuts will switch plan. Magic really started, is running a few Windows or holding the tabs - 2 key symbol of Windows, and many will cycle through the open project tools (IE with aviation peep, of course). Go just switch corresponding window. It is far - - ALT + TAB shortcut first 10 taskbar. If you need a new example, simply use into + + < > sign window #, one may also is the list of ALT + + < > # window. Finally, even you can turn to the active window window procedure with CTRL + + < > sign (this is # arms with a mouse click into a task bar button). The keyboard fans happy!
3. Poor countries
"Poor" internal word window window, we need your attention. Since the 1990s, the task bar has been providing some type of visual warning customers to this country, such as by flash button. A careful to balance between information, rather than must provide the customer. Annoying The new task bar, we received a feedback, remind or a messenger to pay attention to, because the needy chat window is sometimes too complicated. For example, Mudassir open mistakenly said. "obviously, not enough to flash user's attention. Sometimes I don't even notice it. It, then stop flashing. If I leave this icon flash, standing before I come back." No noticeable. "We've got three change, which should be solved this problem. First, we changed the flash animation curve, make it more clearly, from a sine (sawtooth wave). Second, we use a bold orange. Finally, we want two times, is currently preparing for flash across three times. As a point to Windows 7, we decided to go with seven.
4. "Open"
Ability to quickly launch always support fallen into a document, it used to open the program. The new task bar, on the other hand, always put a password. As A program that is pinned down. Documents and files will be pressure drop in their respective program, the program list for nail in automatic taskbar. It is very important for us to keep the drag. We believe that, in most cases, people will open files by simply double-clicking them or desktop programs from the list, jumped by default. However, there are also some scenes, the customer wants to open a file types and other projects. We heard the feedback and decided to revive "and" open a keyboard pertaining to drag. One can hold SHIFT and planning document.
5. The task bar
We have plenty of space recovery through unification in tool, switch to open the window, through/collapse of the cleaning. Nevertheless, some have demanded more space they regularly use the program. We have made changes crowded 24-39 scroll icon before more tools, depending on your determination, icon size and assume default notification. Table 1 shows the new button capacity, rolling and order before the test. Capacity, We believe that customers will find plenty of room to sell their common plan.
Application Compatibility Testing -- Overview
We have taken a very positive method, we first application compatible, first we plan our product planning and design and check in the code window and throughout all of our engineering process and guide our final version (or other places).
The goal for Windows application compatible
Our main target for Windows application compatible, is that most 7 applications in Windows Vista will continue to cooperate closely in Windows. We must be careful, make this claim is common, because of a class of applications, always with a new Windows update version. These applications are utilities, diagnosis, system security on the common thread is - potential assumption, therefore implementation within the Windows need to be updated. We carefully with lots of coordination ISVs who provide these applications. This is our earlier this month that we talk about the ecological environment of preparatory course, we will discuss more.
At the beginning, our product cycles, we review our new features and design changes to ensure that every element of Windows and has been used in mind. Our production process, the compatibility of quality inspection including automation to ensure public API doesn't change, our engineers have the right tools, technology and information, the time for the application problems as early as possible in our development cycle. Remote sensing data collection of evaluation and preferred widely our users and the basic information of the market data, and installation of the software in various categories to make sure they work as expected in our new version of the operating system.
Below we expand on how we realize this goal.
Engineering application compatibility
Rich from outside the usage and remote sensing technology is widely software market helps us to provide a series of the most popular and critical applications, frequently updated in our development cycle. Our engineers to these applications and automated test, check each one works such as expected in the Windows.
Changes will affect the application compatibility is followed closely, such as heritage cleanup code, including removal in previous versions of the products strictly protection and management, should not happen without the proper documentation and participation of all parties. For example, if we want to oppose an API calls this API documentation, will be updated, we will wait for removing the minimal impact on remote sensing data, unless it is early in safety problems.
In the whole development process, we are testing background, create a new password relative application compatibility. Because of the main building code to check if a compatible automatic detection failures is in a regression test checkin stop. At this point the code is known compatibility issue of scanning, if a problem that the developer is required to solve this problem. Of course we have developed a new test for the entire process, broaden our Windows and news reports of third-party software.
Engineering and test strategy
We have several teams give application compatibility of Windows. The team to provide guidance on how to establish in application, application, provides data compatibility, information on the application may affect our any specific changes in Windows platforms. These teams also review the new characteristics of design, and other plans to ensure the engineering team, has fully consider the application compatible, so that we achieved aim to keep application window, 7 inches.
Besides work with internal window engineering team, we also extends to third-party developers to write applications to ensure these partners in the information they need, and make their solutions fully compatible with Windows Vista and Windows. But if we do any problems, by third-party developers, we collected all the information, resources and guidance, and those outside developers to help them understand and solve these problems.
We recently announced a window and ecosystem of preparatory course. This program provides partners to provide access to the window and establish and tools, test plan, window Windows vista Windows Server 2008 and the Windows Server 2008 R2. The ecological system of preparatory course also facilitate test multiple components of the ecological system to improve the overall in the user experience. Rather than a particular attention is the OEM products, application software or hardware equipments, we will turn to register multiple components, a rich user experience, providing customers with high quality, reliability, performance, and innovation through new features.
So Much For Lindsey Graham2
Honestly, Graham's complaints here are ridiculous. The differences between the bill he wrote and the bill as it exists now are relatively trivial. His main complaint seems to be that Congress isn't embarking on an offshore drilling free-for-all. Well, sure. That's what happens when an oil company poisons large swathes of the Gulf of Mexico. It's going to be hard to get any major new drilling incentives passed right now. That's not some inherent flaw in the climate bill—it's just an indication that some of his colleagues actually seem to be learning or thing or two from the BP fiasco. This whole episode really makes you wonder if Graham was ever serious about energy and climate policy in the first place.Office 2007 Pro is so great! Update: Again, once upon a time, Graham was saying stuff like this: "All the cars and trucks and plants that have been in existence since the Industrial Revolution, spewing out carbon day-in and day-out, will never convince me that's a good thing for your children and the future of the planet." Hey, never say never! Here's Graham today: "We can have a debate about global warming, and I'm not in the camp that believes man-made emissions are contributing overwhelmingly to global climate change, but I do believe the planet is heating up." That was fast.Office 2007 Professional can give people so much convenience. Honestly, Graham's complaints here are ridiculous.

Is Lugar's "Plan B" For Energy Any Good?1
Okay, now the problems. For one, when you add everything up, Lugar's bill would only cut emissions 9 percent below 2005 levels by 2017. By contrast, the Kerry-Lieberman bill would do 17 percent by 2020, and even that's on the low end of what climate scientists would recommend. What's more, because there's no overall cap on carbon, it's not even assured that Lugar's bill would lead to these promised cuts. What if, say, industrial polluters get more efficient but then just decide to pollute more overall? (This is what's happening in China, after all.) Without a cap, there's nothing that would prevent this from happening.By using Office 2010 Professional, you can save your money and time
The details of Lugar's bill also deserve more scrutiny than they've been getting. For one, according to the Union of Concerned Scientists, Lugar's "diverse energy standard" would actually lead to less new renewable power than if Congress simply did nothing. That's because there's a weird little loophole here: Utilities can avoid purchasing renewable power if they pay a fee. But that fee then gets cycled back to the utilities in the form of a subsidy for things like carbon-sequestration projects that may never pan out.
Moreover, while the idea of retiring old coal plants is a good one, the way Lugar would go about it is a little troubling. Via e-mail, Frank O'Donnell of Clean Air Watch points out that the country's dirtiest coal plants would get to avoid all sorts of pollution regulations for the next eight years—they could dodge mercury regulations or limits on wastewater discharge. And then? The theory is that in 2018 they'd have to close up shop. But the EPA could waive this requirement if a shutdown would create "regional energy disruptions." Want to bet that, by the time 2018 rolls around, electric utilities will be arguing exactly that? And if an industry-friendly Republican is in the White House, what are the odds that these coal plants will be allowed to stay online?Choose Office 2007 Professional is the most lucky thing in the world.
Review: Documents To Go rocks Google Android with unique Office functions
Documents to be one of the first office software, I use my palms, prime minister equipment blackberry users solve edge. Only a few of the application in the market, but my robot in the past eight months, I have G1, but one that I strongly recommend you buy now (if you have no longer is the document to Google's robot. With Google's I/O conference now will I think it is fitting, put all my review the application. Let me surprised DataViz function can be incorporated into the mobile application package, and think it over their customers in all other intelligent mobile platforms. File to bring high expectations enterprise ability the Android platform and obstacles using robot is a feasible commercial equipment has started to decline. Check for 40 years old picture gallery, use screenshots at my experience is what makes this follows a convincing robot products.

With Wave, did Google jump the (Microsoft) shark?
Google's threat to Microsoft and Google's example and become Microsoft - like?
If you read "Google wave is best Google search" tweets and blog posts, some interesting counterpoints surfaced. A few brave some problems skeptical man cast forth: Google bloatware wave? Is the wave useful? Or, as it CodingHorror/of buffer overflow Jeff's tweeted ", perhaps the most things I've seen Microsoft - y Google. This is not intended as a compliment, incidentally."
Google is pushed wave - it launched a developer in Google's I/O seminars, May 28 - as a new web 2.0 collaboration tools. From what I have seen, reading it, it looks like a Friendfeed mashup, E-mail, and messages. And being part of the wave, you need to write another agreement, agreement or standard already exists.
See: gallery trip: Google waves rolled into action
Google, wave: still on.
Google, wave: meet a new way to communication and collaboration
But wait: are these restrictions, Microsoft for it is often dinged? Remodeling - even shaking (copy) - the existing technology and products? They asked programmers agreement, even "open" agreement and/or by an independent body or standard? It is a coincidence, Google project Gundotra vick is soft?
Microsoft has not publicly criticized, attention to its rivals, without making any announcements waves and how it is competition or not and the prospect/sharing, etc. A soft, project manager, make notes yesterday Google in tweet Obasanjo dared cancel two extremely alike, wave Microsoft project) and (hailstorm active (life).
