  • Publication number: 20180191353
    Abstract: A physical unclonable function (PUF) circuit structure is provided, which comprises: n passive conductor groups and n XOR units, where each of the n passive conductor groups comprises m passive conductors, each of the m passive conductors comprises a first terminal connected to a power supply and a second terminal connected to an input terminal of a corresponding XOR unit of the n XOR units; and the second terminals of passive conductors within the same passive conductor group are connected to an input terminal of the corresponding XOR unit. In the circuit structure, the connection randomness of the passive conductors is achieved by using a different widths and/or different spaces of the passive conductors, and then a PUF function can be realized.

  • Patent number: 9642158
    Abstract: A scheduling method includes: determining whether a valid time interval is shorter than a first time interval; and when the valid time interval is smaller than the first time interval, performing a search for a time length of N predetermined search cycles. In each of the predetermined search cycles, N consecutive TD-SCDMA sub-frames are regarded as a group, and one fixed sub-frame in the group is selected for the search. In the N predetermined search cycles, the fixed sub-frames selected from the group in respective predetermined search cycles are different. N is a natural number greater than or equal to 2.

  • Publication number: 20030126171
    Abstract: A method and system for processing data arriving from a bit-stream to perform numerical computations in a temporal order independent fashion. According to one embodiment, the method is applied to IDCT computations to allow processing of IDCT coefficients in the same order they are received from an MPEG bit stream. The coefficients are not required to be converted from scan order to array order before processing. This provides significant advantages in that it imposes minimal storage requirements for the coefficients and the coefficients are processed in scan order.

  • Patent number: 4794217
    Abstract: A semiconductor wafer is transported by a mechanical system into or out of a quartz housing filled with a protection gas. The wafer is placed between and spaced apart from two graphite plates. A RF induction coil surrounding the quartz housing is used to heat the graphite plates. Radiation from the heated graphite plates heats the wafer from room temperature to an elevated desired temperature. During the time period when a wafer absorbs radiation primarily through electron-to-electron transition, heat convection and conduction by the protection gas conveys heat from the graphite plates to the wafer to accelerate the heating of the wafer and reduces temperature nonuniformity of the wafer.

  • Patent number: 4620971
    Abstract: A new .sup.111 In-BLM complex designated .sup.111 In-BLMC is described. The complex is characterized by a lack of capacity for binding to serum transferrin, a high selective affinity for viable tumor tissue, in vivo stability, improved activity ratios of tumor to tissues over known .sup.111 In-BLM complexes, tumor imaging flexibility and distinctness, and rapid clearance from the body. The new .sup.111 In-BLM Complex thus has clinical use as a radiopharmaceutical for combining radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and as a tumor-imaging agent for diagnosis.
