Abstract: A method of joining an interior wall and a composite channel together is disclosed. The method includes wrapping one or more first composite plies around a first end portion of a first mandrel and wrapping one or more second composite plies around a second end portion of a second mandrel. The method includes positioning the one or more first composite plies located on the first end portion of the first mandrel against the one or more second composite plies located on the second end portion of the second mandrel to create the interior wall, and inserting the first mandrel and the second mandrel into a passageway of a composite channel. The interior wall created by the one or more first composite plies and the one or more second composite plies creates a barrier to block a flow of fluid within the passageway of the composite channel.

Abstract: A meeting service with meeting time and location optimization is described. In some examples, organizer and attendee behaviors may be analyzed and used as contextual factors in computing ranking scores for potential meeting times. To optimize a meeting for the attendees (including the organizer), potential meeting times and locations may be ranked based on weighted coefficients for the factors that are used in ranking such as attendee schedules, preferences, meeting type, location attributes, attendee preferences for locations, and extraneous factors such as events and other happenings that may impact availability or access of attendees as well as meeting locations.

Abstract: Variety of approaches to provide time polling are described. A calendar application initiates operations to provide meeting time polling upon processing an availability information associated with a meeting organizer and/or a meeting invitee to provide suggested timeslot(s). Selected timeslot(s) are received as a selection from the suggested timeslot(s) by the meeting organizer. The selected timeslots are transmitted to the meeting invitee for prompting the meeting invitee for a vote. Next, voted timeslots are received as a selection from the selected timeslot(s) by the meeting invite. The voted timeslot(s) are provided to the meeting organizer for prompting the meeting organizer to finalize the meeting.

Abstract: Variety of approaches to provide a meeting time picker with automated suggestions are described. A calendar application initiates operations to provide a meeting time picker upon detecting an intent of a meeting organizer to organize a meeting. The intent lists a meeting invitee. Availability information associated with the meeting invitee is retrieved from a calendar provider. A first layer, a second layer, and third layer of timeslots are generated for a presentation. The first layer includes a meeting organizer schedule. The second layer includes an aggregate schedule of the meeting invitee. The third layer includes a suggested schedule of a meeting time. The first layer, the second layer, and the third layer are presented in a scheduling grid to the meeting organizer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating enhanced scheduling. In at least one implementation, a user may consider the availability of any room in a building when scheduling an event. Event entities including an event participant and an event environment having various sub-environments in which to host an event are identified. A participant availability for the event participant is identified based on a participant schedule associated with the event participant and an environment availability for the event environment is identified based on an environment schedule associated with each of the sub-environments. The participant availability for the event participant and the environment availability for the event environment are then presented for consideration by the user.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for blending and supplying process materials. The method and apparatus are particularly applicable to the blending of ultra-high purity chemicals, the blending of abrasive slurries with other chemicals for the polishing of semiconductor wafers, and high-accuracy blending of chemicals. The apparatus may include a dispensing subsystem that supplies process materials to a mixing subsystem where they are blended with a static mixer. The method may include supplying process materials with a dispensing subsystem and blending the process materials in a static mixer.
