Abstract: Disclosed herein is a computer implemented method of correcting a timing failure of a network of conductors and repowering structures in an integrated circuit design using a reinforcement learning agent. The reinforcement learning agent comprises a neural network. The method comprises: receiving a graph comprising nodes and edges that encodes said network of conductors and repowering structures; and receiving a modification recommendation from said reinforcement learning agent in response to inputting said graph into said reinforcement learning agent.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a heat-insulating housing and at least one heat-insulating door fastened thereto. The door and the housing each have an outer cladding, an inner cladding, and a heat insulation layer produced therebetween by foaming and into which is introduced vacuum insulation panels on the door and/or on the housing. Vacuum insulation panels are disposed on the inner claddings of the doors and housings.

Abstract: A method for sinter coating a work-piece is disclosed, the work-piece having at least two sections of different surface-related heat capacities. The method includes a first step of pre-heating the work-piece to a first temperature that is higher than a fusion temperature of a sinter coating material. The method also includes a step of rapidly heating of the work-piece to a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature. However, the rapid heating step is halted before the temperature of the work-piece section with the greater surface-related heat capacity matches the second temperature. The work-piece then has a subsequent step of application of the sinter material to the work-piece.

Abstract: A method for sinter coating a work-piece, the work-piece having at least two sections of different surface-related heat capacities. The method including a step of shock heating of the work-piece under conditions which, with continuing effect on the work-piece, bring the work-piece to a first temperature and which is stopped before the temperature of the work-piece section with the greater surface-related heat capacity matches the first temperature. The work-piece then has a subsequent step of application of the sinter material to the work-piece. The step of shock heating of the work-piece is preceded by a step of pre-heating the work-piece under conditions which, with continuing effect on the work-piece, bring the work-piece to a second temperature between the fusion temperature of the sinter material and the first temperature.
