  • Lithography alignment
    Publication number: 20050046846
    Abstract: A wafer may be aligned with an imaging plate including an alignment grating with a pitch P. A pupil filter in the pupil plane of the optical system may be used so that the periodicity of the intensity of light from the alignment grating is less than P at the wafer plane. Thus, an alignment pattern on the wafer having a pitch smaller than the pitch of the alignment grating may be used. For example, the intensity periodicity at the wafer plane may be P/2. In an implementation, a pupil filter may be sized and positioned to block a zero-th order maximum of light transmitted through the alignment grating at the pupil plane. The pupil filter may be sized and positioned to allow first order maxima of the light to pass. The alignment system may be used with transmission or reflection optics.

  • Method and apparatus in a data processing system for the separation of role-based permissions specification from its corresponding implementation of its semantic behavior
    Patent number: 6862686
    Abstract: A method and apparatus in a data processing system for managing permissions in an application. A user input is received at a container handled by a view controller, wherein the user input requests a change in permissions in the application. This user input, may be, for example, a change in security in an application through a login process. A view event describing the user input is generated. The view event is received at an application mediator. Responsive to receiving the view event, by the application mediator, a request event is generated and a permission corresponding to the user input is received. The permission alters an item, which may be in either of both the view controller and the application mediator.

  • Apparatus and method for scheduling resource in a multiuser MIMO radio communication system
    Publication number: 20050043031
    Abstract: In a multiuser Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) radio communication system, a transmitter receives channel quality information transmitted from receivers, schedules resource for the receivers within a corresponding scheduling epoch based on the received channel quality information. Thereafter, the transmitter pre-codes signals to be transmitted to the resource-scheduled receivers in a predetermined coding method before transmission, thereby maximizing system transmission efficiency.

  • Wireless access modem having downstream channel resynchronization method
    Publication number: 20050044472
    Abstract: A resynchronization method for use in a data communication system having a first device configured to transmit data at a symbol rate to a second device. The second device includes a Reed Solomon (RS) decoder having a RS lock indicator and a Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Protocol Interface (MPI) having a MPI lock indicator, wherein the RS and the MPI lock indicators are monitored. Four different states, defined by the values of the RS and MPI lock indicators, determine whether the data communication system will wait for the RS decoder and the MPI hardware block to resynchronize, whether an intermediate-subset of the channel acquisition algorithm is performed or whether the entire channel acquisition algorithm is performed. The method for resynchronization described herein recovers synchronization within a predetermined time without the layers above the physical link layer having knowledge.

  • System and method for uncontrolled velocity scanning
    Patent number: 6851608
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods which provide for scanning of information, such as characters or symbols, without requiring a controlled scan velocity. Preferred embodiments utilize an optical sensor in detecting attributes of information scanned and implement compensation techniques to remediate the effects of distortion and present information which may be identified to a high level of confidence. A known topology may be relied upon to present known markers in the scanned information, such as known blank or filled regions, patterns, or other observable traits and utilized with respect to a distorted scanned image to compensate for the effects of the distortion. Additionally or alternatively, vector based pattern recognition may be utilized in remediating distortion of a scanned image.

  • Compilation of unified parallel C-language programs
    Publication number: 20050028141
    Abstract: Methods, compiler apparatus and a computer program product for compiling UPC source code are disclosed. UPC-unique constructs are converted into C-level form. The C-level constructs are inserted into the source code to form a combined code. The combined code is translated into an intermediate form, wherein any surviving UPC-unique components are discarded. All UPC-unique data or statements are converted to a form that can be handled by general compiler architectures, yet retain UPC properties. The resultant intermediate form is converted to compiled machine code. The generation of C-level constructs occurs at a compiler front end module, avoiding difficulties in intermediate code handling.

    Patent number: 6851089
    Abstract: A wrapper builder application provides a variety of features for facilitating the creation of wrappers that are used to extract information from Web sites. In one aspect, the wrapper builder application provides a tool with which the process of creating a wrapper, which typically resembles coding, can be accomplished by a graphical design process involving drag and drop operations, clicking on objects, and filling in forms. A web viewer component provides a web browser frame, a source code frame, and a tree view frame, enabling the user to identify semistructured information of interest on Web sites. A wrapper editor component provides a graphical design environment in which a wrapper can be graphically constructed from operations and links. A wrapper model component provides a functioning internal representation of the graphically designed wrapper using Java objects and methods.
