Abstract: The present invention provides dental amalgam recycling systems, useful for recycling particles from a dental liquid effluent drawn, for example, from a suctioning device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a composition comprising two edible components, one being a previously-baked but no-longer-fresh product such as a packaged cookie, the other being a high-concentration sugar solution such as a syrup, the two components being combined in a prescribed ratio and geometrical configuration such that when processed by heating in a microwave oven for a prescribed time, said time being typically less than 30 seconds, the enhanced cookie so produced has the superior taste, smell and mouthfeel of a fresh oven-baked cookie, thereby allowing the rapid production of such enhanced cookies one at a time or a few at a time for personal consumption, or on-demand in a fast-food service environment.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for dynamic, granular messaging persistence in a messaging system. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for dynamic, granular messaging persistence in a messaging system is provided. The method includes monitoring operational performance of a message broker and receiving a message for queuing in a message queue of the message broker. The method also includes parsing the message to extract different fields and corresponding priorities and selectively storing in fixed storage, data for corresponding ones of the different fields based upon consideration of corresponding ones of the priorities and the monitored operational performance. Finally, the method includes queuing the message in the message queue.

Abstract: This invention concerns nanoscale products, such as electronic devices fabricated to nanometer accuracy. It also concerns atomic scale products. These products may have an array of electrically active dopant atoms in a silicon surface, or an encapsulated layer of electrically active donor atoms. In a further aspect the invention concerns a method of fabricating such products. The methods include forming a preselected array of donor atoms incorporated into silicon. Encapsulation by growing silicon over a doped surface, after desorbing the passivating hydrogen. Also, using an STM to view donor atoms on the silicon surface during fabrication of a nanoscale device, and measuring the electrical activity of the donor atoms during fabrication of a nanoscale device. Such products and processes are useful in the fabrication of a quantum computer, but could have many other uses.

Abstract: Individual hydrogen atoms are desorbed from a hydrogen terminated layer on a silicon substrate, using an STM tip, to form a pattern of exposed regions. A single donor-bearing molecule (such as phosphorous atoms). The spins of the donor atoms may be used as qubits in a slid quantum computer.

Abstract: A tester or method of testing a mass storage interface queues error functions for simulation responsive to condition criteria of such storage simulation. Such bridge-chip tester may comprise ATA registers to receive data from an ATA or ATAPI-type interface. A main access emulator may emulate data storage processes responsive to commands of a command register of the ATA registers. A test controller may be operable to load a queue with predetermined error functions to be emulated by the tester. The queue may release error functions of the queue for emulation responsive to data of at least one of the command register and the emulator.

Abstract: A system and method for loading, transferring and redeeming value whereby two different systems of stored value accounts, one system being on a major network and the second system being on a secondary network, are linked, providing multiple paths to perform critical operations.
