Abstract: An inductor has a conductor layer formed by multiple concentric co-planar turns of a first metal layer (e.g., ultra-thick metal (UTM)) adapted to receive current at a frequency of at least one gigahertz. The multiple turns of the first metal layer proceed from an innermost turn to an outermost turn, and a stacking layer of a second metal is provided over each of the first metal layer turns except at least the innermost turn, thereby optimizing the Q of the inductor.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) comprises a plurality of metal layers; a seal ring arranged around a perimeter of the IC and included in at least a portion of the plurality of metal layers; a first coil included in the IC; and a bypass conductor included in at least one metal layer of the plurality of metal layers and having at least a first end and a second end electrically coupled to the seal ring to form a bypass ring around the first coil.

Abstract: A method and system for packet inspection in a near field communication (NFC) controller for secure element (SE) protection are described. In a communication device, the NFC controller can receive filtering rules that correspond to security for an applet in the SE. The NFC controller can also receive a packet with commands or instructions for the SE. The NFC controller can inspect the contents of the packet based on the filtering rules and determine whether to communicate the packet to the SE. The packet filtering performed by the NFC controller can also be based on whether the packet was received through an interface with an operating system in the communication device or through an interface with an NFC antenna. The filtering rules can be removed or disabled when an update for the applet is received and installed in the SE.

Abstract: A slowing device for slowing scrolling speed of belt of barrier poles includes a storage unit having a rotor to which the belt is wrapped. The rotor has an axle extending therefrom and located in the room of the storage unit. The rotor scrolls the belt backward when the belt is released. The slowing device is located in the storage unit and has two braking pieces which contact the inner wall of the room due to centrifugal force so that the belt does not move at high speed and does not injure people when being pulled or retracted.

Abstract: A display box includes a bottom rail, two side rails and a top rails, wherein the bottom rail includes an interior space so as to receive a switch and a rechargeable battery unit therein. The bottom rail includes two upright plates extending from a top thereof so as to define a positioning slot between the two upright plates and an LED unit is received in the positioning slot and powered by the battery unit. The LED unit includes multiple LEDs which emit different colors toward a transparent display board is positioned in the frame. The frame can be cooperated with a stand and rotatable relative to the stand.

Abstract: A method for recording a complete stream of live data packets from a server in a media cache with reduced server-cache bandwidth includes utilizing a first amount of server-cache bandwidth to receive only a portion of the complete stream of live data packets from the server, determining when the stream of live data packets from the server finishes, thereafter utilizing a second amount of server-cache bandwidth to receive missing portions of the complete stream of live data packets, and combining the portion of the complete stream of live data packets and the missing portions of the complete stream of live data packets to form the complete stream of live data packets in the memory.

Abstract: A method for storing streaming media data packets in a cache includes receiving a first streaming media data packet from a streaming media server, the first streaming media data packet comprising first header data and first payload data, pre-determining a first payload checksum in response to at least a portion of the first payload data, storing at least a portion of the first header data and the first payload checksum as first packet meta data in a first data object in the cache memory, and storing the first payload data in the first data object in the cache memory, wherein the first data object is directly addressable in the cache memory via an associated object handle.

Abstract: Techniques for caching media data, including streaming media data, using content-sensitive identifiers. The content-sensitive identifiers enable a caching proxy or a caching server to unambiguously determine the version or contents of media data cached by the caching proxy for a particular data pointer or data reference (e.g., a URL) such that an appropriate version of the media data can be served to a requesting client system in an efficient and economical manner.

Abstract: A network caching system has a multi-protocol caching filer coupled to an origin server to provide storage virtualization of data served by the filer in response to data access requests issued by multi-protocol clients over a computer network. The multi-protocol caching filer includes a file system configured to manage a sparse volume that “virtualizes” a storage space of the data to thereby provide a cache function that enables access to data by the multi-protocol clients. To that end, the caching filer further includes a multi-protocol engine configured to translate the multi-protocol client data access requests into generic file system primitive operations executable by both the caching filer and the origin server.

Abstract: An architecture, including a file-level protocol, for supporting sparse volumes on a storage system is provided. The file-level protocol provides coherency checking for use in retrieving data stored on a backing store remote from a storage system.

Abstract: A damper has a body, a spindle and multiple beads. The body has a base with a through hole, a top cap with a through hole and a cavity defined in the body. The spindle is mounted inside the body and has a spindle body and a transverse post formed on the spindle body. The multiple beads are received inside the cavity in the body and abut the transverse post. The damper provides a friction by the transverse post abutting and moving over the beads, therefore, when the damper is mounted on a retractable device, the retracting rate of the retractable device may be adjusted conveniently by changing the amount of the beads.

Abstract: A method for storing streaming media data in a cache memory includes receiving the streaming media data from a streaming media server, the streaming media data comprising a series of packets of media data, the packets of media data including header data and payload data, separating the header data from payload data, storing a portion of the header data in a session data object in the cache memory, and storing the payload data in a first plurality of data objects in the cache memory, wherein each data object of the first plurality of data objects is directly addressable in the cache memory via an associated object handle, and wherein each data object of the first plurality of data objects stores a portion of the payload data.

Abstract: A method for operating a streaming media cache includes receiving a series of streaming media data packets from an upstream server, each of the series of streaming media data packets having media data encoded in one of a plurality of encoding formats, forming bundles of data packets from the series of streaming media data packets, and storing bundles of data packets into a disk memory when every data packet within each bundle have a similar encoding format.
