Abstract: Hybrid materials are formed having a homogeneous distribution of a conductive organic polymer or copolymer in an inorganic matrix. The conductive organic polymer may be electronically conductive, e.g., polyaniline, or may be ionically conductive, e.g., sulfonated polystyrene. The inorganic matrix is formed as a result of sol-gel chemistry, e.g., by the hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate and trialkoxysilyl groups in the organic polymers. A homogeneous distribution of organic polymer in the inorganic matrix is achieved by preparing separate solutions of organic polymer and sol-gel monomer, and then combining those solutions with a catalyst and stirring, to form a homogeneous clear solution. Upon evaporation of the solvent and other volatiles, a monolithic hybrid material may be formed. The combination of conductive organic polymer in an inorganic matrix provides desirable adhesion properties to an inorganic substrate while maintaining the conductivity of the organic polymer.

Abstract: A hub and wheel assembly enabling the moving direction of wheels of a vehicle to be adjusted instantly as the exerted pushing force changes direction comprises a wheel mount having wheels mounted thereon, and a swivel base assembly mounted on stroller leg. Wheel mount may quickly assemble with and detach from swivel base assembly. A protrusion of wheel mount, inserted into swivel base assembly, includes a circumferential groove having a cavity provided therein such that a spring-biased locking member may releasably engage with cavity for setting movement of wheels in a linear direction. Further, as a deflecting force is applied on the stroller locking member disengages with cavity for allowing wheels to move to left or right. Once the force is released, locking member will instantly return to its normal position to engage with cavity.

Abstract: A dual-ported tag array of a cache allows simultaneous access of the tag array by miss data of older LOAD instructions being returned during the same cycle that a new LOAD instruction is accessing the tag array to check for a cache hit. Because a load buffer queues LOAD instructions, the cache tags for older LOAD instructions which missed the cache return later when new LOAD instructions are accessing a tag array to check for cache hits. A method and apparatus for calculating and maintaining a hit bit in a load buffer perform the determination of whether or not a newly dispatched LOAD will hit the cache after it has been queued into the load buffer and waited for all older LOADs to be processed. A load buffer data entry includes the hit bit and all information necessary to process the LOAD instruction and calculate the hit bits for future LOAD instructions which must be buffered.
