Publication number: 20240168777Abstract: In the course of booking a vehicle rental on behalf of the claimant, a claim associate needs to submit a variety of information to multiple private hosted service APIs and public hosted service APIs. Conventionally, the claim associate must request, transcribe, and manually input this information on a client computing system during telephonic services, resulting in substantial silences over the phone call decreasing quality of the claimant's service experience. A multi-API interface is provided, which configures the client computing system to anticipate information which the claim associate will need, based on a type of claimant, to send to multiple APIs, assemble this information from a variety of data records, and present this information to the claim associate, using persistent interface elements and flow control elements allowing the claim associate to review and select information to send to multiple APIs with minimal interruption in the service flow of telephonic services.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2023Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Michelle DeLynn Adler, Steve Stought, Seil Cho, Kelly Knapp, Song Zheng, Christopher David Sharp, Soumya Ranjan Singh, Arteen Ghafourikia, Cagatay Azkin, Kevin Scott Lenz, Joshua Zaks

Patent number: 11984362Abstract: A method of fabricating an integrated circuit includes forming a first opening having a first width and a second opening having a second width in a first dielectric layer over a silicon substrate. The openings expose the silicon substrate and the exposed silicon substrate is oxidized to form first and second LOCOS structures having a first thickness. A polysilicon layer is formed over the silicon substrate, so that the polysilicon layer fills the first and second openings. A blanket etch of the polysilicon layer is performed to remove at least a portion of the polysilicon layer over the second LOCOS structure while leaving the first LOCOS structure protected by the polysilicon layer. The silicon substrate under the second LOCOS structure is further oxidized such that the second LOCOS structure has a second thickness greater than the first thickness.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2021Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Abbas Ali, Christopher Scott Whitesell, John Christopher Shriner, Henry Litzmann Edwards
