Abstract: A method for production analysis includes: receiving production data at a processor from a plurality of tools spatially arranged within a manufacturing facility; creating a hierarchal topology of the data in the processor, wherein each level of the hierarchal topology is based on a different one of a plurality of static parameters that are selected from a list consisting of: a tool identifier, a batch identifier, and a spatial orientation; displaying, at a user interface implemented by the processor, a first analysis of a first level of the hierarchal topology, wherein the analysis contains parameters related to other levels of the hierarchal topology; receiving, via the user interface, a selection by a user of a first parameter displayed on the first analysis; and updating the user interface to display a second analysis of a second level of the hierarchal topology that is related to the first parameter.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an adjustable dishwashing rack having a base member further having a base plate and at least two vertical walls, at least one lid and at least one removable end wall. At least one removable end wall is adjoined to at least two vertical walls of the base member forming an internal volume. A series of connection assemblies serve to adjoin at least one lid, at least one removable end wall and the base member in different configurations determined by the user of the adjustable dishwashing rack. When washing articles of different sizes, at least one lid may be variably inserted parallel to the base plate of the base member allowing for the user to select and control an internal volume of the adjustable dishwashing rack to match the size of at least one article to be washed within the adjustable dishwashing rack.

Abstract: Electrically conductive polymer materials, such as mixtures of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) are combined with functionalized carbon nanotubes to form composites that exhibit increased electrical conductivity. Functionalized or non-functionalized carbon nanotubes combined with the same electrically conductive polymer materials are combined with non-conductive polymers to increase the electrical conductivity of the non-conductive polymer. The functionalized carbon nanotubes are functionalized with carboxyl and/or hydroxyl groups. The resulting materials are useful in methods of forming electrically conductive films and electrically conductive features.
