  • Patent number: 10203688
    Abstract: A manufacturing device inputs design information including three-dimensional structure data, generates a manufacturing process flow, and displays the manufacturing process flow on a screen for a user to check, modify, and confirm the flow based on design information and setting information. A process method includes a first process method of a direct modeling method having an FIB method and a second process method of a semiconductor manufacturing process method which is a non-FIB method. The manufacturing device generates a plurality of manufacturing process flows by a combination of cases where each of the process methods is applied to each of the regions of the three-dimensional data. The manufacturing process flow includes a process device, the process method, a control parameter value, a process time, and a total process time for each of process steps. An output unit outputs a manufacturing process flow having, for example, the shortest total process time.

  • Patent number: 8987554
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for reducing the level of gossypol in cottonseed. The method generally includes selectively inducing RNA gene silencing in the seed of a transgenic cotton plant, to interfere with expression of the ?-cadinene synthase gene or the ?-cadinene-8-hydroxylase gene in the seed of the cotton plant without substantially affecting expression of that gene in the foliage, floral parts, and roots of the plant. The transgenic cotton plant comprises at least one of a ?-cadinene synthase gene trigger sequence and/or a ?-cadinene-8-hydroxylase gene trigger sequence operably linked to one or more a seed-specific promoter gene sequences, and the trigger sequence(s) is/are able to induce RNA gene silencing when expressed in cottonseed of the plant.
