Publication number: 20060150182Abstract: A metadata-based application model for software systems provides for the integration and storing of application metadata with the application itself effectively replacing the system registry. In calling or updating the application components or modules, queries to the metadata within the application folders returns references to the files with metadata that matches the query. The component or modules are called or updated within the file using the returned reference. The present invention also provides a data structure comprising a data field for the application code and another field for the metadata.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2004Publication date: July 6, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Aidan Hughes, J.

Patent number: 6060212Abstract: A polymer that when used with a suitable photoacid generator (PAG) forms a positive working photoresist. The polymer comprises of a tartaric polyanhydride backbone, an acetal protected 1,2 diol group; and a fused ring acetal group pendant to the backbone. The acetal protected .alpha.-hydroxy anhydride backbone structure, undergoes an efficient photoacid catalyzed cleavage, which gives rise to small molecular weight fragments which are readily dissolved in an aqueous base developer. This high contrast in solubility allows high resolution images to be produced. The fused rings offer etch resistance and can be comprised of either an adamantone or norcamphor ring structure. With the addition of a commercially available photo acid generator, the polymer formulation forms a positive working photoresist that offers high contrast and resolution.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 1998Date of Patent: May 9, 2000Assignee: Clariant Finance (BVI) LimitedInventors: Iain McCulloch, Anthony J. East, Ming Kang, Richard Keosian, Hyun-Nam Yoon

Patent number: 5998092Abstract: A water soluble polymer that when used with a suitable photoacid generator (PAG) forms a negative working water soluble photoresist. The polymer comprises of a backbone, such as polyvinyl ether, coupled by a linkage group to an acetal protected .beta.-keto acid group. With the addition of a number of commercially available photo acid generators, the polymer formulation forms a negative working photoresist that is water soluble. Exposure to radiation will cause a photoacid catalyzed deprotection of the acetal group, yielding a .beta.-keto acid which, upon heating, will undergo decarboxylation, which results in a water insoluble photoproduct and evolution of CO.sub.2 as a byproduct. This photochemically induced reaction results in a significant change in the polymer solubility parameter, and the product is no longer soluble in water.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 1998Date of Patent: December 7, 1999Assignee: Clariant International, Ltd.Inventors: Iain McCulloch, Anthony J. East, Ming Kang, Richard Keosian, Hyun-Nam Yoon
