Abstract: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving a parameterless search request, which was provided to a mobile computing device, for information that is relevant to a user of the mobile computing device. The method also includes, in response to the received parameterless search request, identifying with a digital computer system one or more results that are determined to be relevant to the user of the mobile computing device based upon a current context of the mobile computing device. The method further includes providing the results for display to a user of the mobile computing device.

Abstract: To manufacture a ceramic article, a ceramic body comprising Al2O3 is roughened to a roughness of approximately 140 micro-inches (?in) to 240 ?in. The ceramic body is subsequently cleaned and then coated with a ceramic coating. The ceramic coating comprises a compound of Y4Al2O9 (YAM) and a solid solution of Y2-xZrxO3. The ceramic coating is then polished.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide methods for patterning a metal layer, such as a copper layer, to form an interconnection structure in semiconductor devices. In one embodiment, a method of patterning a metal layer on a substrate includes (a) supplying an etching gas mixture comprising a hydro-carbon gas into a processing chamber having a substrate disposed therein, the substrate having a metal layer disposed thereon, (b) exposing the metal layer to an ashing gas mixture comprising a hydrogen containing gas to the substrate, and (c) repeatedly performing steps (a) and (b) until desired features are formed in the metal layer. During the patterning process, the substrate temperature may be controlled at greater than 50 degrees Celsius.

Abstract: A system and method for generating an electronic document are provided. A request to generate an electronic document associated with a concept is received. Content for the electronic document is suggested based on the concept. A selection of the suggested content is received. An electronic document is automatically generated using the selected suggested content.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a computer security server system located between the Internet and a client computing device that makes requests over the Internet, a request for content directed to a particular content server system; forwarding the received request, with the computer security server system, to the particular content server system; receiving code from the particular server system in response to the request; applying a security countermeasure to the received code to created transformed code; providing the transformed code to the client computing device; receiving a communication from the client computing device; and determining that software on the client computing device has attempted to interact with the received code rather than the transformed code.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method involves identifying an initial element for serving by a web server system to a client device and recoding the element by creating a plurality of different elements that each represent a portion of the initial element. The different elements are then served in place of the initial element. A response is received form the client device and has portions that correspond to the different elements, and a combined response is created by combining the received portions in a manner that corresponds to a manner in which the initial element was recoded to create the plurality of different elements.

Abstract: Etching of a thin film stack including a lower thin film layer containing an advanced memory material is carried out in an inductively coupled plasma reactor having a dielectric RF window without exposing the lower thin film layer, and then the etch process is completed in a toroidal source plasma reactor.

Abstract: A method for receiving processed information at a remote device is described. The method includes transmitting from the remote device a verbal request to a first information provider and receiving a digital message from the first information provider in response to the transmitted verbal request. The digital message includes a symbolic representation indicator associated with a symbolic representation of the verbal request and data used to control an application. The method also includes transmitting, using the application, the symbolic representation indicator to a second information provider for generating results to be displayed on the remote device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for improving user search experience with a search engine by providing a way for associated users to create and share personalized lists of local search results and/or advertisements through endorsements of such local search results and/or ads. Local search endorsements can be used to personalize the search engine's ranking of local search results by offering a way for users to re-rank the results for themselves and for those who trust them.

Abstract: Methods of forming material junctions for magnetic memory devices are described. The methods involve providing a material stack including a bottom magnetic tunneling junction layer, a tunneling barrier layer, and a top magnetic tunneling junction layer (from bottom to top) on a substrate. The top magnetic tunneling junction layer is patterned to form a top magnetic tunneling junction and then a dielectric spacer layer may be formed over the top magnetic tunneling junction. The dielectric spacer is etched to leave a vertical dielectric spacer to maintain electrical separation between the top magnetic tunneling junction and the bottom magnetic tunneling junction during and following subsequent etching/processing. In an alternative embodiment the spacer layer is lithographically defined.

Abstract: A system and method for providing a graphical document are provided. A graphical document is processed to identify one or more ideas associated with the graphical document. The identified ideas may be used to determine concepts to associate with the first electronic document and suggest those concepts for association with the first electronic document for use in a document distribution system that distributes documents based on a price parameter associated with concepts and a performance parameter. A request for a document associated with a concept is received. Responsive to the request, the graphical document is delivered if an association between the one or more ideas and the concept is determined.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for coordinating content transformation includes receiving, at a computer server subsystem and from a web server system, computer code to be served in response to a request from a computing client over the internet; modifying the computer code to obscure operation of the web server system that could be determined from the computer code; generating transformation information that is needed in order to reverse the modifications of the computer code to obscure the operation of the web server system; and serving to the computing client the modified code and the reverse transformation information.

Abstract: A system indirectly infers concepts associated with a document. The concepts may be indirectly inferred based on information that does not include characteristics of the document, such as the characteristics that include a textual content of the document not associated with links included in the document, a domain of the document, and the document's Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The system may label the inferred concepts as useful to an audience of the document.

Abstract: Ad information, such as ad targeting keywords and/or ad creative content for example, may be determined using aggregated selected document-to-query information associations. For example, popular terms and/or phrases also associated with a selected document may be used as ad targeting keywords and/or ad creative content for an ad having the document as a landing page. Query information may be tracked on a per document level, a per domain level, etc. The determined ad information may be used to automatically populate an ad record, or may be provided to an advertiser as suggested or recommended ad information.
