Abstract: A method of generating an IC layout diagram includes receiving an IC layout diagram including a gate region and a gate via, the gate via being positioned at a location within an active region and along a width of the gate region extending across the active region, receiving a first gate resistance value of the gate region, retrieving a second gate resistance value from a resistance value reference based on the location and the width, using the first and second resistance values to determine that the IC layout diagram does not comply with a design specification, and based on the non-compliance with the design specification, modifying the IC layout diagram.

Abstract: A transmission method for a multimedia device having a capture function. The transmission method comprises outputting device information to an external device; receiving acknowledgement information; determining whether the external device supports a specific technology according to the acknowledgement information; detecting a plurality of functions of the external device when the external device supports the acknowledgement information; activating one of functions; and providing processing information to the external device for executing the activated function.

Abstract: An image-capturing system includes a lens for capturing an image, a storage module for storing the image, a display module for displaying the image captured by the lens, and a logical unit for displaying an image-capturing frame on the display module, selecting a section of the image displayed on the display device within the image-capturing frame, and storing the selected section of the image in the storage module.
