Publication number: 20200272316Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for creating custom user interface (“UP”) controls. A networked computing service may determine that an action performed by a user of the service is likely to be repeated, based on previous actions performed by the user and/or other users, parameters of the action including characteristics of an item associated with the action, and other criteria. The networked computing service may generate, or recommend generation of, a custom UI control that automates performance of the action. The networked computing service may automatically determine parameters of the action, and may determine alternative parameters and/or alternative actions if the action cannot be performed using the determined parameters. Custom UI controls may be associated with various computing devices and/or other electronic devices, and categories of custom UI controls may be determined and displayed.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2020Publication date: August 27, 2020Inventors: Stephan Josef Andrizzi, Kara Cavallaro, Jai Prakash Chabria, Nicole Dare, Kenneth DeLand, Nirav Praful Desai, Anindya Guha, Marc Hensley, Douglas James Herrington, Samuel Stevens Heyworth, Apoorva Iyer, Nitish Kumar, Hannah McClellan Richards, Jae Park, Amir Pelleg, Jessica Protasio, Daniel Benjamin Rausch, Laura Allison Ridlehoover, Jeffrey Rosenberg, John Shaw, Paul Warren Smart, Amirali Virani

Publication number: 20200263690Abstract: The invention provides an sliding contact single vane rotary vacuum pump in which an oil supply passage is placed in the centre of the rotating vane through which a lubricating oil flows, which provides oil distribution in the pump chamber with enhanced suction pressure of 39%; and the torque exertion by 2.86-7.63%, this helps in reducing the torque of the pump during maximum vacuum condition and results in reduction of the power consumption of the vacuum pump which in-turn decreases the net load on the automotive engine, thus reduces the peak torque, the pump internal chamber pressure and also results better vacuum suction performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2018Publication date: August 20, 2020Inventors: KABIR BHANDARI, RAJESH KUMAR SAHOO, NITISH KUMAR, AVTAR KRISHNA SHARMA

Patent number: 10521854Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for selecting and displaying custom user interface (“UI”) controls. A user of a networked computing service may create custom UI controls that perform user-specified actions, and the networked computing service may present these custom UI controls as part of its user interface. The networked computing service may determine which of a set of custom UI controls to present based on criteria such as frequency or recency of recurring usage, a context or a category associated with the custom UI controls, user preferences, the status of a pending action, usage of similar custom UI controls by other users, or other criteria. The networked computing service may present an interface that enables further customization or modification of the custom UI controls.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2017Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Stephan Josef Andrizzi, Jai Prakash Chabria, Nicole Dare, Kenneth DeLand, Nirav Praful Desai, Anindya Guha, Marc Hensley, Douglas James Herrington, Samuel Stevens Heyworth, Apoorva Iyer, Nitish Kumar, Hannah McClellan Richards, Jae Park, Amir Pelleg, Jessica Protasio, Daniel Benjamin Rausch, Laura Allison Ridlehoover, Jeffrey Rosenberg, Paul Warren Smart, Amirali Virani

Patent number: 10353560Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for developing, debugging, and growing workflows. Embodiments enable the developer to test the workflow in place in a workflow designer that displays input/output parameter values for each workflow step during the test run. The developer is enabled to toggle the workflow step(s) between a development mode, where the developer may edit input parameter values, and a test mode, where the developer is displayed (but cannot edit) the input parameter values and is displayed the output parameter values at each workflow step. A record of workflow runs of a workflow is also maintained. The developer is also enabled to transition a workflow from being a business application to a robust software application having additional functionality. The workflow logic generated is transported between a visual workflow designer and a full-blown code editor.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2016Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Balasubramanian Shyamsundar, Daniel Joseph Kappes, Jesse D.

Publication number: 20190212660Abstract: An optical system delivers illuminating radiation and collects radiation after interaction with a target structure on a substrate. A measurement intensity profile is used to calculate a measurement of the property of the structure. The optical system may include a solid immersion lens. In a method, the optical system is controlled to obtain a first intensity profile using a first illumination profile and a second intensity profile using a second illumination profile. The profiles are used to derive a correction for mitigating the effect of, e.g., ghost reflections. Using, e.g., half-moon illumination profiles in different orientations, the method can measure ghost reflections even where a solid immersion lens would cause total internal reflection. The optical system may include a contaminant detection system to control a movement based on received scattered detection radiation. The optical system may include an optical component having a dielectric coating to enhance evanescent wave interaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2017Publication date: July 11, 2019Applicant: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Nitish KUMAR, Adrianus Johannes Hendrikus SCHELLEKENS, Sietse Thijmen VAN DER POST, Ferry ZIJP, Willem Maria Julia Marcel COENE, Peter Danny VAN VOORST, Duygu AKBULUT, Sarathi ROY

Patent number: 10254644Abstract: A metrology apparatus uses radiation (304) in an EUV waveband. A first detection system (333) includes a spectroscopic grating (312) and a detector (313) for capturing a spectrum of the EUV radiation after interaction with a target (T). Properties of the target are measured by analyzing the spectrum. The radiation (304) further includes radiation in other wavebands such as VUV, DUV, UV, visible and IR. A second detection system (352, 372, 382) is arranged to receive at least a portion of radiation (350) reflected by the first spectroscopic grating and to capture a spectrum (SA) in one or more of said other wavebands. The second waveband spectrum can be used to enhance accuracy of the measurement based on the EUV spectrum, and/or it can be used for a different measurement. Other types of detection, such as polarization can be used instead or in addition to spectroscopic gratings.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2017Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Richard Quintanilha, Nitish Kumar
