Abstract: A method, an article of manufacture and apparatus for providing user-specific error analysis for a document. Specifically, the invention provides for identifying user-specific proclivities for confusing particular words which, while grammatically correct, are not used as intended by the user. The proclivities are tracked by recording changes made by the user while editing a document. The information collected while tracking the changes is then used to identify problem words to the user at a later period in time.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for delivery of reactants to a substrate processing chamber. An electronically controlled valve assembly is provided for rapid delivery of pulses of reactants to the chamber. The valve assembly comprises a valve body having a valve seat, and at least one gas inlet and one gas outlet below the seat. The piston is selectively movable within the valve body to open and close the valve. In order to actuate the valve assembly, current is sent to a solenoid coil within the valve body. The solenoid coil generates a magnetic field that acts on an adjacent magnetic member. The solenoid coil, magnetic member and piston are arranged such that relative movement of the coil and magnetic member cause the piston to be moved relative to the valve seat.
