Abstract: An anti-twist water-saving permeable hose is provided. A wall of the permeable hose has two curved support portions and two permeable portions connected between the two support portions. The permeable portions are mated with the support portions to form a flat chamber. The permeable portions have a curvature greater than that of the support portions. The support portions have a hardness value greater than that of the permeable portions, so that the support portions and the permeable portions are still able to cooperate with each other to form the chamber when the permeable hose is bent. Thus, the permeable hose does not twist to ensure its service life.

Abstract: A method of forming a finished film comprising extruding a molten polyethylene comprising a diene terpolymer modifier through a die opening to form a film, wherein the diene-terpolymer modifier is a terpolymer comprising ethylene-derived units, C3 to C10 ?-olefin derived units, and diene-derived units; causing the film to progress in a direction away from the die opening; cooling the film at a distance from the die opening, the distance adjusted to allow relaxation of the molten polyethylene prior to solidification and/or crystallization upon cooling; and isolating a finished film therefrom. Desirably, the polyethylene is a linear low density polyethylene, and the die and cooling is suitable for forming a blown film.

The graph has vertices and edges connecting some of the vertices. The vertices represent the IC patterns. The edges are classified into at least two types, a first type connecting two vertices that are to be patterned separately with the first and second lithography techniques, a second type connecting two vertices that are to be patterned in a same process using the first lithography technique or to be patterned separately with the first and second lithography techniques. The method further includes decomposing the vertices into first and second subsets, wherein the IC patterns corresponding to the first and second subsets are to be patterned on a wafer using the first and second lithography techniques respectively.

The nodes are classified to assign a plurality of first and second links between the nodes. First and second pseudo colors are assigned to a pair of nodes of each first link. The second links having a pair of nodes both corresponding to the first or second pseudo color are identified. The nodes of the first links are uncolored. A first real color is assigned to the two uncolored nodes of the identified second links in each of the networks. A second real color is assigned to the uncolored nodes connected to the nodes corresponding to the first real color through the first links. First and second masks are formed according to the nodes corresponding to the first and second real colors, respectively.
