    Abstract: A method for controlling an engine to reduce vehicle shuffle mode vibration during mode transition. The engine includes multiple cylinders, each with at least one electrically actuated valve, and the engine operates in a first mode having a first number of firing cylinders and a second mode having a second number of firing cylinders. The method comprises transitioning the engine from operating in the first mode to the second mode; adjusting at least a valve timing or lift of one of a last cylinder to be fired in said first mode and a first cylinder to be fired in said second mode to temporarily adjust a cylinder torque and thereby reduce vehicle shuffle mode vibration.

    Abstract: A system and method for controlling an internal combustion engine in a vehicle include controlling the engine to achieve a desired vehicle speed/deceleration when the accelerator pedal is released. A desired vehicle deceleration may be determined based on current transmission gear, vehicle speed, and road grade. Vehicle speed/deceleration is measured using a vehicle speed sensor and/or wheel speed sensor(s) and the engine is controlled to reduce the error between the desired and measured decelerations. Electronically actuated intake and/or exhaust valves, and/or an electronically controlled throttle may be used to achieve a desired vehicle deceleration profile. A selector switch or similar device may be used by the driver to select a desired deceleration profile from two or more available profiles and/or a desired deceleration profile may be automatically selected based on current ambient and/or vehicle/engine operating conditions.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for analyzing user-activity data are disclosed. In one disclosed embodiment, for example, two or more data streams of low-level, user-activity data are detected at a computer workstation via two or more respective sensors. The two or more respective sensors may comprise a first sensor configured to detect network-access requests and a second sensor configured to detect at least one of the following events: file-activity events, window-title-change events, or user-interface events. Targeted user activity is identified from at least one of the data streams. The targeted user activity can comprise, for example, a user initiating a network access; performing a search on a search engine; creating, opening, or modifying a file; or initiating a network access that causes a window title to change. Computer-readable media containing computer-executable instructions for causing a computer system to perform any of the described methods or for storing lists created or modified by any of the disclosed methods are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A system and method for operating at least an intake and exhaust valve in a cylinder with a piston of an engine in a vehicle are described. In one aspect, the method comprises maintaining at least one of the intake and exhaust valves in a closed position during a period. Further, during said period where said at least one valve is in said closed position, the method may also include opening the other of the intake and exhaust valve, then closing the other of the intake and exhaust valve, and then opening the other of the intake and exhaust valve.
