Abstract: To decrease development revision cycle time and reduce deployment and execution errors when porting software from a public cloud to a specialized cloud, the software is analyzed for certain characteristics. Analysis may check for non-permitted items, required items, fragile code, morph code, or deny list expressions, for example. The particular items, codes, expressions, or other characteristics targeted by analysis derive from gapping constraints that distinguish the specialized cloud from public clouds, such as an air-gap constraint, a geolocation constraint, or a government security constraint. Software cloud compatibility analyses may be added, removed, or updated using a modular framework architecture, using declarative analysis module declarations, or both. False positive analysis results may be filtered out. Analysis results may include suggestions.

Abstract: A ribbon is formed such that the ribbon floats on a melt using a cold initializer facing an exposed surface of the melt. The ribbon is single crystal silicon. The ribbon is pulled from the silicon melt at a low angle off the melt surface. The ribbon is formed at a same rate as the pulling. The ribbon is separated from the melt at a wall of the crucible where a stable meniscus forms. The ribbon has a thickness between a first surface and an opposite second surface from 50 ?m to 5 mm. The ribbon includes a first region extending a first depth from the first surface. The first region has a reduced oxygen concentration relative to a bulk of the ribbon.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a thickness of a crystalline ribbon grown on a surface of a melt includes a crucible configured to hold a melt; a cold initializer facing an exposed surface of the melt; a segmented cooled thinning controller disposed above the crucible on a side of the crucible with the cold initializer; and a uniform melt-back heater disposed below of the crucible opposite the cooled thinning controller. Heat is applied to the ribbon through the melt using a uniform melt-back heater disposed below the melt. Cooling is applied to the ribbon using a segmented cooled thinning controller facing the crystalline ribbon above the melt.

Abstract: An optical sensor is configured to detect a difference in emissivity between the melt and a solid ribbon on the melt, which may be silicon. The optical sensor is positioned on a same side of a crucible as a cold initializer. A difference in emissivity between the melt and the ribbon on the melt is detected using an optical sensor. This difference in emissivity can be used to determine and control a width of the ribbon.

Abstract: A single crystal silicon wafer has a thickness between a first surface and an opposite second surface from 50 ?m to 300 ?m. The wafer includes a first region extending a first depth from the first surface. The first region has a reduced oxygen concentration relative to an adjacent region of the wafer. The wafer has a bulk minority carrier lifetime greater than 100 ?s.

Abstract: This invention provides a knitted wire carrier for use in constructing a (e.g.) automotive weather seal that incorporates a locking stitch formed from a relatively incompressible and expansion-resisting material that passes through at least one of the warp threads adjacent to the wire weft. In an embodiment, the locking stitch constructed from a steel (or another metal) wire that is solid or braided. In other embodiments, the locking stitch can be constructed from fiberglass, monofilament polymer or another similarly performing material. In an embodiment, the lockstitch wire is constructed from approximately 0.5-millimeter diameter steel and the wire carrier is constructed from approximately 0.5-0.91-millimeter diameter steel. The wire lockstitch can be woven through a center warp yarn that is surrounded by other knitted warp yarns along the overall weft of the wire carrier. The wire carrier is coated with an adhesive, e.g., latex to maintain the knit in place.

Abstract: Method for aligning converted wave seismic reflection data (PS data) with conventional PP seismic reflection data so that both data types may be used to more accurately image the subsurface for hydrocarbon exploration or field development. Amplitude vs. angle (AVA) or amplitude vs. offset (AVO) attributes of PP and PS seismic data are identified and defined, which attributes are theoretically expected to be in phase and optimize seismic resolution in the data. In one embodiment of the invention, such attributes are calculated (310), then the same horizons are identified in a series of PP attributes and in a series of PS attributes, then the second series is aligned with the first at the horizon locations (316, 320), then a time transfer function is generated and applied to the PS mode data (322), and the aligned joint-mode data are inverted (326) using, for example, AVA attributes.
