Abstract: A semiconductor package including a first semiconductor chip, a second semiconductor chip disposed on the first semiconductor chip, and a third semiconductor chip disposed on the second semiconductor chip. A first pad is disposed on a top surface of the second semiconductor chip, and includes a first portion and a second portion protruding in a vertical direction from the first portion. A width of the first portion in a first horizontal direction is greater than a width of the second portion in the first horizontal direction. A second pad is disposed on a bottom surface of the third semiconductor chip facing the top surface of the second semiconductor chip, and a solder ball is disposed as surrounding a sidewall of the second portion of the first pad between the first pad and the second pad.

Abstract: The present invention provides a universal and centralized image (e.g., medical, bio-molecular, etc.) processing system platform. The invention permits sharing both computation and visualization across a single universal platform, thus allowing for sharing of computing resources and visualization of images on a variety of imaging (client) devices without high-performance graphical display cards. In a typical embodiment a (e.g., medical) image 2D linear registration algorithm is implemented on a Cell Broadband Engine processor, which has nine processor cores on a chip and has a 4-way SIMD unit for each core.

Abstract: An artificial knee joint is provided in which a flexion is formed at the bearing member and includes a femur joint member which is joined to an end portion of a tibia near a femur; a tibia joint member which is joined to an end portion of a femur near a tibia; and a bearing member between the femur joint member and the tibia joint member, wherein the bearing member includes a groove where a planar front flexion and a planar rear flexion at an upper plane, in order to provide an artificial knee joint movement similar to a real knee movement.
