Publication number: 20210256445Abstract: Resources are required to satisfy various needs and wants of people, businesses, and machines. Resources come in the forms of time, talents, money, materials, energy, services, people, knowledge, communication, and other tangible and intangible assets. When both the capacities and the needs of multiple resources are stored in a way that allows for them to be connected together using computers, they can be efficiently and effectively matched. This matching creates shared value, which has potential academic, economic, societal and philanthropic benefits. Connected computer system(s) can query and match resources together in a way that is mutually beneficial. While a common lexicon is the simplest way to perform the matching, natural language processing, machine translation, or use of similar technologies may be optimal. Any method of collecting these inputs should be able to handle one or multiple capacities, and one or multiple needs.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2021Publication date: August 19, 2021Applicant: Magna Services, LLCInventor: John MUIRHEAD-GOULD

Patent number: 10738447Abstract: The invention relates to a waste fitting including a waste pan means into which waste can flow, at least one part of the waste pan means allowing visual inspection therethrough. During installation, an opening of the waste outlet can be located by visual inspection through the or each at least one part of the waste pan means, enabling a suitable position to be determined for forming and or positioning of at least one aperture in the waste pan means. The at least on aperture is formed such that, in use, waste that flows into the waste pan means can exit through the or each at least one aperture towards the opening in the waste outlet. The invention also relates to a method of installing a waste fitting.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: KELLOPHIE IP HOLDINGS PTY LTDInventor: Philip John Muirhead

Publication number: 20190237391Abstract: A stacked-chip assembly including a plurality of IC chips or die that are stacked, and electrically coupled by solder bonds. In accordance with some embodiments described further below, the solder bonds are to contact a back-side land that includes a diffusion barrier to reduce intermetallic formation and/or other solder-induced reliability issues. The back-side land may include an electrolytic nickel (Ni) barrier layer separating solder from a back-side redistribution layer trace. This electrolytic Ni may be of high purity, which at least in part, may enable the backside metallization stack to be of minimal thickness while still functioning as a diffusion barrier. In some embodiments, the back-side land composition and architecture is distinct from a front-side land composition and/or architecture.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2016Publication date: August 1, 2019Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Seshu V.

Patent number: 5820299Abstract: Each module includes a tubular member filled with filling material, such as concrete, and a tube located in the filling material and extending longitudinally of the tubular member. Tubes or holes extend transversely through the tubular member and the filling material. The longitudinal tube facilitates connection of the module in end-to-end relationship with the modules using connecting mechanisms. The transverse tubes or holes facilitate securing the module to one or more like modules in side-by-side relationship using securing mechanisms. The modules may be assembled together so as to form, for example, a pipeline stabilizing and protection mat to ballast and protect underwater pipelines.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1996Date of Patent: October 13, 1998Assignee: British Gas plcInventor: John Muirhead Anderson
