  • Process for the manufacture of multilayer ceramic substrates
    Patent number: 6676784
    Abstract: A process for the manufacture of a multilayer ceramic substrate includes fabricating the multilayer ceramic substrate from a monolith fabricated from universal layers and a monolith fabricated from custom layers. The universal layer monolith and the custom layer monolith are then joined to form the complete structure of the MLC substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2001
    Date of Patent: January 13, 2004
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Christopher D. Setzer, Harsaran S. Bahatia, Raymond M. Bryant, Michael S. Cranmer, Suresh Kadakia, Richard O. Seeger, Satyapal Singh Bhatia
  • SUBSTRATE DESIGN OF A CHIP USING A GENERIC SUBSTRATE DESIGN
    Publication number: 20030047352
    Abstract: A method of substrate design of an multilayer ceramic module that uses menu die of the same size is provided. One of these menu die provides a “generic” substrate design having internal wiring with greatest number of input/output (I/O) signal leads of all the dice available. Middle (redistribution) layers include electrical interconnections for both power and the I/O signal lead wires between the dice interface terminals and a bottom surface metallurgy (BSM) layer that has electrical connector pads by use of a customization layer.

  • Method of instrumenting garbage collection generating a trace file making a single pass analysis of object heap
    Patent number: 6434575
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for instrumenting garbage collection in a data processing system is provided. During garbage collection, a pass is made through the object heap and a plurality of heap data is retrieved and written to a trace file. The data may include the type of object, the size of the object on the heap, the class of the object, if appropriate, and a plurality of pointers, including live set pointers, and one or more tags representing attributes that may be associated with the particular object. The instrumentation may controlled to occur at a preselected phase of the garbage collection process. Additionally, a user may dynamically initiate a garbage collection instrumentation if the user determines that an event has occurred during the operation of the data processing system about which the user wishes further data.
