Abstract: A method for making abrasive grains, the method comprising mixing one or more solids with one or more liquids in a twin screw extruder to form a mixture, transferring the mixture to a high pressure piston extruder; and extruding the mixture from the high pressure piston extruder through a die to form an extrude. The method further includes segmenting the extrudate to form extruded shaped abrasive particles.

Abstract: An alumina particulate material is disclosed, including particles comprising transitional alumina having an aspect ratio of not less than 3:1 and an average particle size of not less than about 75 nm. Also disclosed are fabrication techniques based on seeded processing pathways.

Abstract: In a method of managing a content-based network including a plurality of content routers, such as XML routers, dynamic links are established between the content routers which are not direct neighbors.

Abstract: A carrier grade content router, includes a distinct management plane for housing externally visible management applications, and coordinating and relaying external management requests to appropriate underlying application code in the router; a distinct control plane for running control protocols required within an XML routed network; and a distinct data plane for receiving and forwarding customer data. Some functions can be implemented in software or via a hardware accelerator.

Abstract: In a method of managing a content-based network, which is typically XML-based, and optionally may be overlaid on an underlying network having a plurality of network elements interconnected by links, a link state protocol maintains each network element's topological view of the overlay network from the underlying network. A subscription management protocol ensures dissemination of published content within the content-based network independently of the link state protocol.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for identifying advertisements responsive to one or more historical queries generated by a given user. The method of the present invention comprises annotating a profile for a user with information associated with one or more historical queries generated by the user. The profile associated with the user is retrieved, the profile indicating one or more historical queries previously generated by the user. One or more advertisements are identified as responsive to a selected historical query maintained in the profile of the user. The one or more advertisements previously displayed to the user in response to the selected historical query are identified. The one or more advertisements identified as not previously displayed to the user are thereafter displayed.

Abstract: A boehmite particulate material is disclosed. The material is formed by a process that includes providing a boehmite precursor and boehmite seeds in a suspension, and heat treating the suspension to convert the boehmite precursor into boehmite particulate material. The boehmite particulate material has an aspect ratio of not less than 3:1.

Abstract: A method of adding meta-data to document in a content-routed network including a plurality of routers interconnected by links involves adding an encoded meta-tag to the document.

Abstract: An implicit routing protocol for content-based networks having a plurality of XML routers includes an XML Link State Protocol and an XML Subscription Management Protocol that routes customer data based on XML content. The XML Link State Protocol and the XML Subscription Management Protocol includes several messages that must be exchanged between XML routers in the network. These messages are encoded using XML.

Abstract: A method for exchanging control and customer data between network element in a communications network involves establishing a virtual connection between the routers, and exchanging the control and customer data over an http layer.
