Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing a substrate are provided herein. For example, an apparatus for processing a substrate comprises a process chamber configured to process a substrate, a substrate support comprising a heat sink configured to cool the substrate support during operation and a water trap panel comprising a pumping ring configured to cool the water trap panel such that the water trap panel condenses water vapor molecules and drops a process chamber pressure during operation, and a chiller operably coupled to the substrate support and configured to supply a cooling fluid to the substrate support via a cooling fluid line that connects to the heat sink and the pumping ring via a serial configuration or a parallel configuration.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for holding at least one conduit. The device includes a ring having a first end and a second end. The device also includes a first clamping jaw extending from the first end of the ring. The device also includes a second clamping jaw extending from the first end of the ring. A first clamping surface of the first jaw contacts a second clamping surface of the second jaw in a first position, and the first clamping surface is spaced apart from the second clamping surface in a second position. The device transitions from the first position to the second position in response to application of an external force applied to an exterior surface of the ring between the first end and the second end. The device also includes a channel including an inlet positioned at the second end of the ring. The channel is configured to releasably receive the at least one conduit via the inlet, and the channel prevents the at least one conduit from contacting the first end of the ring.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an approach is provided in which a thread is selected from multiple active threads, along with a corresponding weighting value. Computational logic determines whether one of the multiple threads is dispatching an instruction and, if so, computes a dispatch weighting value using the selected weighting value and a dispatch factor that indicates a weighting adjustment of the selected weighting value. In turn, a resource utilization value of the selected thread is computed using the dispatch weighting value.

Abstract: A fluid leakage monitoring method and system comprising an electronic control, a sensor to monitor fluid inflow to a point of use, a sensor to monitor fluid outflow from a point of use, and a shut off valve. Uneven and asymmetrical fluid usage is monitored by a point of use station and the system is shut down when levels indicate abnormalities between the flows.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of treating chronic rhinosinusitis such as allergic fungal sinusitis comprising daily oral administration of a composition from more than 500 mg to about 800 mg, preferably about 625 mg or 725 mg terbinafine base equivalent as hydrochloride, or a molar equivalent in other acid addition salt or free base form, for a duration effective to reduce the symptoms of, or eliminate chronic rhinosinusitis; it further concerns the use of terbinafine in the manufacture of a corresponding medicament, and packs containing a plurality of corresponding compositions and medicaments.

Abstract: A data collection system for collecting data concerning participant response to broadcast material. The system comprises broadcast material, a plurality of data collection units and a central controller. The broadcast material contains a combination of an audience content portion, which is presented to the participant, and a data content portion which is not presented to the participant but has a content capable of identifying the content of the audience content portion currently being broadcast for presentation to the participant. The data collection units collect and store the data content portions pertaining to participant response to broadcast material and the data content portions stored by the collection unit can be read by the central controller and used for a variety of purposes.

Abstract: Disclosed is a digital signal decoder system for receiving compressed encoded digitized video signals and transmitting decompressed decoded digital video signals. This is accomplished with a minimum of DRAM demand through the use of a Spill Buffer.
