Publication number: 20190050871Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting CRM data. Users may configure what to display on a custom report and how to arrange and display the content (e.g., size, color, theme), so that they can visualize the CRM data the way they want. A data visualization interface may be used to generate the custom report, and may use HTML to specify the CRM data to be displayed and their location on the custom report according to user configuration. The data visualization interface may use JavaScript for specifying the objects and fields users want to query to obtain the CRM data to fill up the custom report. An API may communicate with the JavaScript in the data visualization interface and then query data and objects in the CRM to get a result set. The API may be a unified API which may work across multiple platforms and query various types of database, e.g., iOS, Windows, and the browser for Salesforce online.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2017Publication date: February 14, 2019Applicant: Veeva Systems Inc.Inventors: Arno Sosna, Cindy Chiang, Edward Gee, Adam Bragg, Xuan Wang, Mark Fleischmann

Patent number: 9773037Abstract: Systems and methods for processing user requests for updating data in a CRM system. When a user requests to update data in the CRM system, it is determined if the requested data change involves a DCR-controlled field. If yes, the requested data change may be routed to the MDM system for validation first and the data change may not be used to update the CRM until the validation is successful. If the requested data change does not involve any DCR-controlled field, it may update the CRM immediately.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2015Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: VEEVA SYSTEMS INC.Inventors: Uri Reich, Pengfei Liu, Arno Sosna, Povilas Petkevicius, Edward Gee, David Wright, Jay H Hartley, Sadhana Jain, Abhay Pimprikar

Publication number: 20160254673Abstract: A local power converter may include a controller to manipulate the operating point of a local power converter to cause the power point tracking feature of a central power converter to operate at a point determined by the controller. In some embodiments, the controller can manipulate the operating point of the local power converter by alternating between at least two modes. In some other embodiments, the controller can manipulate the operating point of the local power converter to provide a substantially constant slope. In some other embodiments, the controller can maintain a substantially constant impedance ratio. In some other embodiments, the controller enables perturbations from the power point tracking feature of the central power converter to reach the power source.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2016Publication date: September 1, 2016Applicant: SunPower CorporationInventors: Robert Batten, Vincenzo DiTommaso, Gary B.

Patent number: 8716154Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure pertain to methods of depositing conformal silicon oxide multi-layers on patterned substrates. The conformal silicon oxide multi-layers are each formed by depositing multiple sub-layers. Sub-layers are deposited by flowing BIS(DIETHYLAMINO)SILANE (BDEAS) and an oxygen-containing precursor into a processing chamber such that a relatively uniform dielectric growth rate is achieved across the patterned substrate surface. A plasma treatment may follow formation of sub-layers to further improve conformality and to decrease the wet etch rate of the conformal silicon oxide multi-layer film. The deposition of conformal silicon oxide multi-layers grown according to embodiments have a reduced dependence on pattern density while still being suitable for non-sacrificial applications.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2011Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Sidharth Bhatia, Paul Edward Gee, Shankar Venkataraman

Patent number: 8664127Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure pertain to methods of depositing silicon oxide layers on substrates. In embodiments, silicon oxide layers are deposited by flowing a silicon-containing precursor having a Si—O bond, an oxygen-containing precursor and a second silicon-containing precursor, having both a Si—C bond and a Si—N bond, into a semiconductor processing chamber to form a conformal liner layer. Upon completion of the liner layer, a gap fill layer is formed by flowing a silicon-containing precursor having a Si—O bond, an oxygen-containing precursor into the semiconductor processing chamber. The presence of the conformal liner layer improves the ability of the gap fill layer to grow more smoothly, fill trenches and produce a reduced quantity and/or size of voids within the silicon oxide filler material.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2011Date of Patent: March 4, 2014Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Sidharth Bhatia, Hiroshi Hamana, Paul Edward Gee, Shankar Venkataraman

Patent number: 8476142Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure pertain to methods of preferentially filling narrow trenches with silicon oxide while not completely filling wider trenches and/or open areas. In embodiments, dielectric layers are deposited by flowing a silicon-containing precursor and ozone into a processing chamber such that a relatively dense first portion of a silicon oxide layer followed by a more porous (and more rapidly etched) second portion of the silicon oxide layer. Narrow trenches are filled with dense material whereas open areas are covered with a layer of dense material and more porous material. Dielectric material in wider trenches may be removed at this point with a wet etch while the dense material in narrow trenches is retained.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2011Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Sasha Kweskin, Hiroshi Hamana, Paul Edward Gee, Shankar Venkataraman, Kadar Sapre

Patent number: 8012887Abstract: Methods of depositing silicon oxide layers on substrates involve flowing a silicon-containing precursor, an oxidizing gas, water and an additive precursor into a processing chamber such that a uniform silicon oxide growth rate is achieved across the substrate surface. The surface of silicon oxide layers grown according to embodiments may have a reduced roughness when grown with the additive precursor. In other aspects of the disclosure, silicon oxide layers are deposited on a patterned substrate with trenches on the surface by flowing a silicon-containing precursor, an oxidizing gas, water and an additive precursor into a processing chamber such that the trenches are filled with a reduced quantity and/or size of voids within the silicon oxide filler material.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2009Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Shankar Venkataraman, Hiroshi Hamana, Manuel A.

Patent number: 7994019Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure pertain to methods of depositing conformal silicon oxide layers on patterned substrates. In embodiments, dielectric layers are deposited by flowing a silicon-containing precursor and ozone into a processing chamber such that a relatively uniform dielectric growth rate is achieved across the patterned substrate surface having heterogeneous materials and/or a heterogeneous pattern density distribution. The deposition of dielectric layers grown according to embodiments may have a reduced dependence on underlying material and pattern density while still being suitable for non-sacrificial applications. Reduction in dependence on pattern density is achieved by terminating deposition near the end of an incubation period. Multiple deposition cycles may be conducted in series since the beneficial nature of the incubation period may repeat after a pause in deposition.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2010Date of Patent: August 9, 2011Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Sasha Kweskin, Paul Edward Gee, Shankar Venkataraman, Kedar Sapre
