Patent number: 11727512Abstract: A system for estimating space and budgeting requirements for real estate applications provides remote access to a user over a network so the user can receive real estate space and budgeting estimate in real time through a graphical user interface. A processor receives via a graphical user interface the user's select test fit parameters and the user's select property record of a subject property. The processor automatically generates a leasing cost estimate and a construction cost estimate based on the user's select test fit parameters and the user's select subject property record. The processor automatically generates a proposed layout of a floor plan based on the user's select test fit parameters and the user's select subject property record. The processor transmits the generated leasing cost estimate, the generated construction cost estimate, and the generated proposed layout of the floor plan for display in the graphical user interface.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2019Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: JONES LANG LASALLE IP, INC.Inventors: Wayne Myers, Ann Chambers, Paulette Saunders

Patent number: 9239268Abstract: In a laser-produced plasma (LPP) extreme ultraviolet (EUV) system, laser pulses are used to produce EUV light. To determine the energy of individual laser pulses, a photoelectromagnetic (PEM) detector is calibrated to a power meter using a calibration coefficient. When measuring a unitary laser beam comprising pulses of a single wavelength, the calibration coefficient is calculated based on a burst of the pulses. A combined laser beam has main pulses of a first wavelength alternating with pre-pulses pulses of a second wavelength. To calculate the energy of the main pulses in the combined laser beam, the calibration coefficient calculated for a unitary laser beam of the main pulses is used. To calculate the energy of the pre-pulses in the combined laser beam, a new calibration coefficient is calculated. When the calculated energy values drift beyond a pre-defined threshold, the calibration coefficients are recalculated.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2014Date of Patent: January 19, 2016Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Rong Liu, Robert J. Rafac, David Wayne Myers, Robert A. Bergstedt, Paul Alexander McKenzie
