Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, the render rate is varied across and/or up and down the display screen. This may be done based on where the user is looking in order to reduce power consumption and/or increase performance. Specifically the screen display is separated into regions, such as quadrants. Each of these regions is rendered at a rate determined by at least one of what the user is currently looking at, what the user has looked at in the past and/or what it is predicted that the user will look at next. Areas of less focus may be rendered at a lower rate, reducing power consumption in some embodiments.

Abstract: A suspension which comprises an inert liquid medium, a solid material, and a transition metal compound is dried using a spray-drying technique. The spray-drying is effected under conditions of temperature and pressure which are such as to cause evaporation of the liquid medium. The solid material is preferably in a finely-divided form. The solid material may consist essentially of a transition metal compound or may be a transition metal compound which is supported on a suitable solid inert matrix material. Alternatively, a suspension of a solid support material in a solution of a transition metal compound may be used. The dried solid is obtained as an agglomerate. The agglomerated solid can be mixed with an organic compound of a non-transition metal to give an olefin polymerisation catalyst system.
