Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a conductive line, a pad layer, and a barrier layer. The conductive line is embedded in a multi-level interconnect structure. The pad layer is over the conductive line. The barrier layer is between the conductive line and the pad layer. The pad layer is electrically connected to the conductive line through the barrier layer, and the barrier layer includes a first poly-crystalline layer and a second poly-crystalline layer. A boundary is between the first poly-crystalline layer and the second poly-crystalline layer.

Abstract: A video decoding method includes: before residual decoding of a coding unit is completed, referring to available information to determine whether to decode information that an inverse transform (IT) circuit needs for applying inverse transform to transform blocks of the coding unit, and generating a determination result; and controlling coefficient transmission of the coding unit to the IT circuit according to the determination result.

Abstract: A multimedia content editing controller includes a microcontroller, a data storage device, a display device and a function selection device. The microcontroller receives plural editing function options from an external computer host. The plural editing function options are stored in the data storage device. The plural editing function options are displayed on the display device. When a user performs at least one function selection operation through the function selection device, the microcontroller determines at least one selected editing function option from the plural editing function options, and the microcontroller generates a human-machine interaction control signal. The at least one selected editing function option is transmitted from the microcontroller to the external computer host. The human-machine interaction control signal is transmitted to at least one of the display device and a LED display module.

Abstract: A smart storage equipment for smart logistics system and a smart logistics method using the same are provided. The smart storage equipment has a base device and at least one logistic container, and can be installed on a vehicle. The logistic container is loaded with goods and accommodated in a container-storage structure of the base device, wherein the container-storage structure reads an identification of the logistic container and locks the logistic container therein. Furthermore, according to a container-release data from a server, a container control unit of the base device controls the corresponding container-storage structure to unlock the logistic container.

Abstract: A smart storage equipment for smart logistics system and a smart logistics method using the same are provided. The smart storage equipment has a base device and at least one logistic container (such as, but not limited to, a logistic container with thermal insulation). The logistic container is loaded with goods and accommodated in a container-storage structure of the base device. Based on a validity of an identification information of the logistic container, the logistic container is further locked or unlocked to the container-storage structure of the base device. Furthermore, based on whether a consumer information of a consumer and the identification information of the logistic container match an order information in a server, a transceiver control unit of the logistic container controls a cover lock of the logistic container to unlock or lock.
