Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards benchmarking online activity via encoded links generated by an online activity benchmarking system. The method may include identifying by a server of an online activity benchmarking system, for an information resource, a plurality of encoded links encoded by the server of the online activity benchmarking system and linked to the information resource, receiving by the server, via the identified plurality of encoded links, a plurality of requests to access the information resource, identifying by the server, for each request of the plurality of requests to access the information resource, one or more attributes corresponding to the request, categorizing by the server, the plurality of requests to access the information resource based on the one or more identified attributes, and providing by the server, for presentation, an output indicating statistics corresponding to the categorized plurality of requests based on the one or more identified attributes.

Abstract: Systems and methods of monitoring online activity may include providing, by a server of a linking system, a cookie of the linking system to a client device responsive to receiving a first request from a first resource to access a first link encoded by the linking system and linked to a second resource. The server may identify from the first request, the cookie, the first resource and the second resource. The server may receive from the client device, a second request to access a second link that is encoded by the linking system and linked to a third resource. The server may identify from the second request, the same cookie provided to the client device and the third resource. The server may identify, via the cookie provided to the client device, that the client device has accessed the first, second and third resources.

Abstract: A reticle that is within specifications is inspected to generate baseline candidate defects and their location and size. After using the reticle in photolithography, the reticle is inspected to generate current candidate defects and their location and size. An inspection report of filtered candidate defects and their images is generated so that these candidate defects include a first subset of the current candidate defects and their images and exclude a second subset of the current candidate defects and their images. Each of the first subset of candidate defects has a location and size that fails to match any baseline candidate defect's location and size, and each of the excluded second subset of candidate defects has a location and size that matches a baseline candidate defect's location and size.

Abstract: A reticle that is within specifications is inspected so as to generate a baseline event indicating a location and a size value for each unusual reticle feature. After using the reticle in photolithography, the reticle is inspected so as to generate a current event indicating a location and a size value for each unusual reticle feature. An inspection report of candidate defects and their images is generated so that these candidate defects include a first subset of the current events and their corresponding candidate defect images and exclude a second subset of the current events and their corresponding excluded images. Each of the first included events has a location and size value that fails to match any baseline event's location and size value, and each of the excluded second events has a location and size value that matches a baseline event's location and size value.

Abstract: Articles, such as tubing or strips, which have excellent corrosion resistance to water or steam at elevated temperatures, are produced from alloys having 0.2 to 1.5 weight percent niobium, 0.01 to 0.6 weight percent iron, and optionally additional alloy elements selected from the group consisting of tin, chromium, copper, vanadium, and nickel with the balance at least 97 weight percent zirconium, including impurities, where a necessary final heat treatment includes one of i) a SRA or PRXA (15-20% RXA) final heat treatment, or ii) a PRXA (80-95% RXA) or RXA final heat treatment.

Abstract: Articles, such as tubing or strips, which have excellent corrosion resistance to water or steam at elevated temperatures, are produced from alloys having 0.2 to 1.5 weight percent niobium, 0.01 to 0.45 weight percent iron, at least one additional alloy element selected from 0.02 to 0.8 weight percent tin, 0.05 to 0.5 weight percent chromium, 0.02 to 0.3 weight percent copper, 0.1 to 0.3 weight percent vanadium, 0.01 to 0.1 weight percent nickel, the balance at least 97 weight percent zirconium, including impurities, wherein the alloy may be fabricated from a process of forging the zirconium alloy into a material, beta quenching the material, forming the material by extruding or hot rolling the material, cold working the material with one or a multiplicity of cold working steps, wherein the cold working step includes cold reducing the material and annealing the material at an intermediate anneal temperature of 960°-1105° F., and final working and annealing of the material.

Abstract: Decontamination formulations with an additive for enhancing mold remediation. The formulations include a solubilizing agent (e.g., a cationic surfactant), a reactive compound (e.g., hydrogen peroxide), a carbonate or bicarbonate salt, a water-soluble bleaching activator (e.g., propylene glycol diacetate or glycerol diacetate), a mold remediation enhancer containing Fe or Mn, and water. The concentration of Fe2+ or Mn2+ ions in the aqueous mixture is in the range of about 0.0001% to about 0.001%. The enhanced formulations can be delivered, for example, as a foam, spray, liquid, fog, mist, or aerosol for neutralization of chemical compounds, and for killing certain biological compounds or agents and mold spores, on contaminated surfaces and materials.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a non-oriented electrical steel with improved magnetic properties and improved resistance to ridging, brittleness, nozzle clogging and magnetic aging. The chromium bearing steel is produced from a steel melt which is cast as a thin slab or conventional slab, cooled, hot rolled and/or cold rolled into a finished strip. The finished strip is further subjected to at least one annealing treatment wherein the magnetic properties are developed, making the steel sheet of the present invention suitable for use in electrical machinery such as motors or transformers.

Abstract: Non-oriented electrical steels are widely used as the magnetic core material in a variety of electrical machinery and devices, particularly in motors where low core loss and high magnetic permeability in all directions of the strip are desired. A method for producing a non-oriented electrical steel with low core loss and high magnetic permeability provides a steel that is produced from a steel melt which is cast as a thin strip or sheet, cooled, hot rolled and/or cold rolled into a finished strip. The finished strip is further subjected to at least one annealing treatment wherein the magnetic properties are developed, making the steel strip suitable for use in electrical machinery such as motors or transformers.

Abstract: An adjustable optical ribbon edge sensor having a relatively short throat for ease of loading a towel ribbon in a high-speed line printer includes one or more pairs of photosensitive switches, coupled through a variable resistor, to a comparator facilitates accurate and repeated detection of the ribbon edge regardless of the color of the ribbon. By adjusting the variable resistor, the comparator is biased for the particular color ribbon in use.
