  • Publication number: 20250060960
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for adapting scripts from a source platform to be utilized in a target platform when porting. Traces of system calls from the commands in the source and target platforms are analyzed to identify building blocks. A tree structure for each command of the source and target platforms is constructed with one or more building blocks from the identified building blocks. Commands of the target platform with a functionality within a threshold degree of similarity to the commands of the source platform are identified by analyzing the building blocks of the commands' tree structures. Alternative commands for the commands of the source platform, such as those commands that are not supported by the target platform, may be generated using such identified commands. The script from the source platform may then be adapted to be utilized in the target platform using such alternative commands.

  • Patent number: 12054382
    Abstract: A micro-electromechanical-system (MEMS) device may be formed to include an anti-stiction polysilicon layer on one or more moveable MEMS structures of a device wafer of the MEMS device to reduce, minimize, and/or eliminate stiction between the moveable MEMS structures and other components or structures of the MEMS device. The anti-stiction polysilicon layer may be formed such that a surface roughness of the anti-stiction polysilicon layer is greater than the surface roughness of a bonding polysilicon layer on the surfaces of the device wafer that are to be bonded to a circuitry wafer of the MEMS device. The higher surface roughness of the anti-stiction polysilicon layer may reduce the surface area of the bottom of the moveable MEMS structures, which may reduce the likelihood that the one or more moveable MEMS structures will become stuck to the other components or structures.
