  • Solutions for constraint satisfaction problems requiring multiple constraints
    Patent number: 7260562
    Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention includes sorting a set of constraints based on weights associated with each constraint, the constraints being capable of being satisfied based on values selected for corresponding associated parameters, selecting a constraint that is unsatisfied and that has the greatest weight, selecting parameters associated with the constraint and finding parameter values to satisfy the constraint, after satisfying the selected unsatisfied constraint, selecting a further unsatisfied constraint having the next greatest weight and finding values for associated parameters to satisfy the further constraint, and repeating the selecting of further constraints and the finding of values for associated parameters.

  • Internal resonator water cooled ion laser
    Patent number: 4715039
    Abstract: A single unitary structure for an ion laser in which the plasma tube with a surrounding electromagnet is integrated with the laser resonator tube. Cooling channels are formed by a pair of annular channels between the resonator tube, electromagnet and plasma tube. A helical, flow path in the annular channels provides uniform cooling around the resonator tube.
