Abstract: A semiconductor chip includes a first intellectual property block. There are a second intellectual property block and a third intellectual property block around the first intellectual property block. There is a multiple metal layer stack over the first intellectual property block, the second intellectual property block, and the third intellectual property block. An interconnect structure is situated in the upper portion of the multiple metal layer stack. The interconnect structure is configured for connecting the first intellectual property block and the second intellectual property block. In addition, at least a part of the interconnect structure extends across and over the third intellectual property block.

Abstract: A method includes forming a first conductive feature, depositing a passivation layer on a sidewall and a top surface of the first conductive feature, etching the passivation layer to reveal the first conductive feature, and recessing a first top surface of the passivation layer to form a step. The step comprises a second top surface of the passivation layer. The method further includes forming a planarization layer on the passivation layer, and forming a second conductive feature extending into the passivation layer to contact the first conductive feature.

Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for progressive loading for web-based spreadsheet applications. In accordance with the concepts and technologies disclosed herein, a user device can access data from a remote source such as a server computer. The user device can determine dimensions of a viewport corresponding to a viewable portion of the data, a window associated with the viewport, and a preloaded area associated with the window. The user device can request the data associated with the window and the preloaded area and store the data in a cache associated with the user device. The cached data can be used by the user device to generate UIs for displaying the spreadsheet. If the user device detects movement of the viewport, the user device can render a new UI in response to the movement. The user device also can be configured to update and/or clean the cache.

Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for row and column navigation. In accordance with the concepts and technologies disclosed herein, a user device executes an application program configured to present data in a user interface (“UI”). The user device can execute a navigation controller to detect touch events at the user device. The navigation controller can determine if touch events correspond to input for panning or scrolling the UIs and for implementing the requested panning or scrolling. The navigation controller can include functionality for providing a touch event handler to detect input for panning or scrolling the data and a UI scrolling manager that implements the requested panning or scrolling. The panning or scrolling can be tracked and the data, as modified in accordance with the tracked movement, can be presented to a user in a UI.

Abstract: A method and system for monitoring forestry products are provided in the present invention, wherein at least one active communicating device is disposed on a forestry product, and reading and transmitting devices are also disposed in specific locations for building a monitoring and management mechanism to protect the forestry products from stealing. By means the method and system of the present invention, it is capable of providing real-time monitoring information and collecting evidence of illegal actions immediately so that the management staff can control the situation and status of the forestry products, which is useful for improving the efficiency of forestry management. Meanwhile, the present invention may also help to find those lawless persons who steal and fell illegally the forestry resources so as to ensure the safety of working environment for forest managing staff and sustainable management of forest and natural resources.

Abstract: A control method for modifying information concerning a remote work site includes: (i) setting up a database that comprises information concerning a remote work site; (ii) using an electronic device that has an image-capturing unit, in order to capture images of equipment or construction sites at the remote work site; (iii) communicating with an access platform and an option menu arranged on the access platform via an Internet connected module, creating an issue in a network database via the electronic device with an Internet browser and accessing information about the issue via the option menu that allows access to the database according to an authority level of a user; or creating an issue directly on a network database via an network connected module; and (iv) modifying the information in accordance with the issue of the images from the remote work site.
