Abstract: A first device may receive first route information, from a second device, identifying a first route to the second device for a packet to be provided toward a destination via the second device. The first device may generate second route information identifying a second route to the first device for the packet. The first device may provide the second route information to a third device. The packet is to be received by the first device. The first device may receive the packet from the third device via the second route after providing the second route information to the third device. The packet is to be provided to the second device by the first device. The first device may perform a service on the packet based on being identified by the second route information as a next hop for the packet and prior to providing the packet to the second device.

Abstract: A surface acoustic wave device includes a transducer electrode formed on a substrate. In one aspect, the electrode has a plurality of layers. At least one of the layers is metal and another of the layers is a material for providing a hardening effect to the metal layer by reinforcement with Al2O3 precipitates. In another aspect, the electrode is electrically connected to a metal component that permits electrical connection of the surface acoustic wave device to an electrical device external to the surface acoustic wave device. The electrode has a metal portion of a first metallization. The component is of a second, different metallization. In other aspects, the surface acoustic wave device is made via a method to have such structural aspects.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a color matching apparatus using four KCMY films which may be adjusted along respective percentage scales (which are divided in 1 percentage point increments) through movement of slider buttons until the slider buttons are aligned with the required percentages and the desired combination of the four colors is visible in a viewing window.
