Abstract: An inclination adjusting device for a desk contains: two support columns, an elongated board, and a movable cylinder. Each support column includes a holding portion. The elongated board is mounted on the holding portion of each support column, and the movable cylinder is rotatably connected with a bottom of the elongated board and the holding portion. Thereby, the movable cylinder is driven to lift the elongated board by mating with an adjustment block of the holding portion to adjust an inclination of the elongated board.

Abstract: An inclination adjusting device for a desk contains: two support feet, a top board, and at least two movable cylinders. The two support feet are formed in an inverted U shape, and between the two support feet is defined a holding portion. The top board has a larger area and is fixed above the two support feet connected with the holding portion. The at least two movable cylinders are defined between a bottom of the top board and the holding portion, and the at least two movable cylinders are rotatably connected with the bottom of the top board and the holding portion and tilt.

Abstract: A method comprises providing a non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium storing a partial netlist of at least a portion of a previously taped-out integrated circuit (IC) layout, representing a set of photomasks for fabricating an IC having the IC layout such that the IC meets a first specification value. A computer identities a proper subset of a plurality of first devices in the IC layout, such that replacement of the proper subset of the first devices by second devices in a revised IC layout satisfies a second specification value different from the first specification value. At least one layout mask is generated and stored in at least one non-transitory machine readable storage medium, accessible by a tool for forming at least one additional photomask, such that the set of photomasks and the at least one additional photomask are usable to fabricate an IC according to the revised IC layout.

Abstract: A method includes identifying at least one local power segment of a circuit, estimating at least one performance parameter of the at least one power segment based on a computer-based simulation of the circuit, and changing a design of the circuit based on at least one electromigration avoidance strategy if the at least one parameter is greater than or equal to a threshold value. A data file representing the circuit is stored if the at least one parameter is less than the threshold value.

Abstract: A systemic cabinet is composed of multiple boards and multiple connecting pieces. Each board has multiple mortises defined at sides respectively to combine the corresponding connecting pieces with supporting strength by wedging to form a configuration of the systemic cabinet. The connecting pieces have multiple types in design variation to provide orientation-positioning efficiency and have supporting strength to make the composed systemic cabinet firm and stable. Therefore, once one board is worn out, only the worn board is replaced by detaching the connecting pieces to save other elements and to make the replacement easy and environmental for future repair.

Abstract: The present invention relates to microbial infection, and in particular, the reduction of apoptosis associated with microbial infection, the screening of agents that reduce apoptosis, and the treatment and analysis of microbial infection in vivo. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to agents including but not limited to reducing the activity of Protein Kinase R.

Abstract: A systemic cabinet is composed of multiple boards and multiple connecting pieces. Each board has multiple mortises defined at sides respectively to combine the corresponding connecting pieces with supporting strength by wedging to perform configuration of the systemic cabinet. The connecting pieces have multiple types in design variation to provide orientation-positioning efficiency and have supporting strength to make the composed systemic cabinet firm and stable. Therefore, once one board is worn out, only the worn board is replaced by detaching the connecting pieces to save other elements and to make the replacement easy and environmental for future repair.

Abstract: A handle structure is held by a user to move a reacting container such as a fermentation tank. The reacting container includes a hollow container body, a cover and a plurality of cannulae penetrating through the cover for communicating the hollow container body with the external. The handle structure includes a handle member standing upright for a user to exert a holding force thereon in a working mode and drooping away from the cannulae in a resting mode; and a clutch member rotatably coupled to the handle member, and optionally rotated relative to the handle member to switch between a first mode allowing the handle member to enter the resting mode and a second mode prohibiting the handle member from entering the resting mode.
