Abstract: A system and method for thermally coupling memory devices, such as DIMM memory modules, to an associated memory controller such that both are cooled together at the same relative temperature. By maintaining all of the devices at a much more uniform temperature, memory timing issues are effectively eliminated. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, the controller chip is physically located between two or more banks of memory, and is positioned under an adjoining heat sink while the memory DIMMs are positioned laterally of the controller chip in angled DIMM slots and are coupled to the controller chip with respective heat spreaders.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for determining the current replacement value of plants, trees, shrubs, and other landscape architectural objects by identifying the object; uploading information about the object and its location to a relational database which is used to construct average current replacement values; using the database to compare identified landscape architectural objects of a specific type and at a specific size against known wholesale pricing information from nurseries across the country to select valid nursery prices; averaging all valid prices for landscape architectural objects at a single nursery to derive a nursery average; extrapolating and interpolating price points at sizes not being sold by the nursery to create a complete size/price curve for a nursery; averaging that nursery curve with all other valid nursery prices to construct a national, and regional, average; and applying a market-based multiplier against the derived average wholesale prices to accommodate for the professional

Abstract: The multiple print stream management system for managing production of a document to be created divided into document portions includes a printing stage including a plurality of printers each for printing a respective document portion of the document to be created; a finishing stage including one or more assembly devices for processing an output of each of the plurality of printers for collating the document portions into a final document corresponding to the document to be created; and a processor for tracking each document portion and for directing collation of the document portions in accordance with intended attributes of the final document specified in a data file for the document to be created.
