Abstract: The technology described herein includes a four-column shelving unit. One or more improved tie bars run between the front and rear shelf-support beams. The one or more tie bars are installed perpendicular to the shelf-support beams. The improved tie bar may take the overall form of a V-channel with a novel tri-notch connection on either end. The tri-notch connection allows the tie bar to connect with a front shelf-support beam on one end and a back shelf-support beam on the other end. The tri-notch connection includes two bottom notches and a top notch. The top notch may form a gap in the V-channel that allows the end of the tie bar to slip under a shelf-support flange on a shelf-support beam during installation. The two bottom notches are sized and shaped to receive an upward facing retention flange located on the bottom flange of the shelf-support beam.

Abstract: A four-column shelving unit with knockdown bracing running between the front and rear columns to form an end frame. The shelving unit comprises end frames formed by connecting a front column and a rear column to each other with knockdown bracing. The knockdown bracing may comprise a diagonal knockdown brace, a top knockdown brace, and a bottom knockdown brace. The knockdown bracing transitions from the knockdown state to the assembled state by pivoting on a hinge that connects one end of the bracing to the column. To complete assembly a pivot screw or other connector may be used to secure the unhinged end of the knockdown bracing to the opposite column. In an aspect, the top and bottom knockdown bracing are hinged within a first column, while the diagonal knockdown bracing is hinged within the second column.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for reliable and customer-friendly delivery of documents. One method of the present invention include the steps of: producing document data for printing documents; accepting requests to print selected documents; determining whether a selected document is accepted for electronic delivery or for non-electronic delivery; printing documents accepted for non-electronic delivery; and electronically delivering documents accepted for electronic delivery.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for monitoring information delivered through an electronic delivery system. One method for monitoring electronically delivering documents is provided which includes the steps of: creating log files for storing selected data related to selected electronic document preparation events; forwarding the log files to a central database for storage; and providing access to the log files for retrieval and analysis.

Abstract: Electrical fuses (eFuses) are applied to the task of achieving very tightly controlled Input-Output (I/O) timing specifications. The I/O timing is made programmable and subject to adjustment as part of wafer probe testing. The techniques of parametric adjustment presented are based upon what is commonly referred to as clock skewing or clock tuning. The invention describes methods to select the clock skewing on a die-to-die basis based on functional testing with the actual parametric limits imposed on parameters of interest. The results associated with each die form the basis for hard-programming the selected clock skew value into the die via electrical fuses.
