  • Publication number: 20240121943
    Abstract: Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having first conductive structures extending along a first direction. Spaced-apart upwardly-opening container-shapes are over the first conductive structures. Each of the container-shapes has a first sidewall region, a second sidewall region, and a bottom region extending from the first sidewall region to the second sidewall region. Each of the first and second sidewall regions includes a lower source/drain region, an upper source/drain region, and a channel region between the upper and lower source/drain regions. The lower source/drain regions are electrically coupled with the first conductive structures. Second conductive structures extend along a second direction which crosses the first direction. The second conductive structures have gate regions operatively adjacent the channel regions. Storage elements are electrically coupled with the upper source/drain regions. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.

  • Patent number: 7233696
    Abstract: An automatic digital image characterization system has a feature extractor, including a segment processor and a feature processor. The segment processor is connected for receiving an image in the form of digitized pixel values; each pixel value having an amplitude and being associated with positional information in the form of column and row values. The feature processor converts the image information into column and row axis functions having calculated values of statistical mean amplitude and standard deviation. A system processor registers images, senses image changes, locates objects and detects hidden information.

  • Patent number: 4862349
    Abstract: A method for extracting and replacing Control Block information in an operating system. An extract replace table is provided to permit application programmers to locate and in certain instances replace items contained in operating system Control Blocks. The user of the application program need not know the precise location of information contained in operating system Control Blocks. The extract/replace table will, upon formulating a request for either extracting or replacing Control Block items, find the requested items and read or replace them. Revisions of operating system programs may be made without regard to the new location of control items. The system user will locate and replace Control Block items by addressing the updated extract/replace tables.

  • Patent number: 4110037
    Abstract: A document recording machine of the flow camera type wherein the rotatable document carrying drum is co-axial with the film carrying capstan and having the same angular velocity, an optical reduction system having the same relative reduction as the reduction of peripheral movement of the drum and capstan and a further optical system for recording a serial number from a film carrying magazine to the film and a pivotable mirror in the further optical system is operable to alternately break the two optical paths.
