Abstract:
A nursery container includes a container body and a grip-and-hold arrangement. The container body has at least one sidewall having a top edge portion and defining a nursery compartment within the container body, and a bottom panel. The grip-and-hold arrangement is formed at the top edge portion of the sidewall of the container body, and comprises a reinforcing rim integrally and outwardly extended from the top edge portion of the sidewall, wherein the reinforcing rim has a curved sectional shape formed along an entire length of the reinforcing rim so as to evenly distribute externally applied force along the reinforcing rim without substantial stress concentration, wherein a user is allowed to effectively grip on the reinforcing rim to carry an entire structure of the nursery container without significant risk of breakage at the reinforcing rim.

Digital rights management method and system for items having usage rights. A first activation device defines a first trust zone. A first license device associated with the first trust zone generates an open license having usage rights associated with a first item. A second activation device defines a second trust zone and is adapted to issue a software package that enforces usage rights. A user device associated with the second trust zone is adapted to receive the software package from the second activation device, to receive the open license associated with the first item, and to use the first item in accordance with the open license. In addition, a method is provided for enforcing a license granting usage rights associated with a protected item, and for classifying a license, the license being an open license or a closed license.
Abstract:
Provided are a system, and program for managing devices in a network. A command of a first type to perform device management operations with respect to at least one device in the network is received, wherein the received command is capable of being directed to at least one of a plurality of devices in the network. A determination is made from a first mapping of a network address of the device to which the received command is directed. A determination is made from a second mapping of at least one command of a second type associated with the received command of the first type, wherein the mapping indicates a mapping of at least one parameter included in the received command of the first type to at least one parameter in the associated command of the second type. The determined command of the second type is generated to include as parameters the at least one parameter from the command of the first type indicated in the second mapping and the generated command of the second type is transmitted to the determined network address.
Abstract:
A method of receiving data packets. In the method of receiving data packets, a determination is made as to whether a received data packet is received out of an expected order. If the determining step determines a received packet is out of the expected order, a time period is calculated to wait for one or more missing data packets based at least in part on an expected time of receiving the one or more missing data packets.

A method for creating a digital work having content and usage rights related to the content, the digital work being adapted to be used within a system having repositories for controlling use of content, the method including issuing a license to a consumer, the license permitting the consumer to access the content of the digital work to be created in the future. The issuing step further includes determining the usage rights that can be included in the license, the usage rights specifying a type of use of the content that is enforceable by a repository; electronically generating a license based on the usage rights; and creating the digital work as the content is being created or after the content is created, wherein the step of creating the digital work includes securing the content before the digital work is distributed to the consumer.
Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that computes dummy feature density for a CMP (Chemical-Mechanical Polishing) process. Note that the dummy feature density is used to add dummy features to a layout to reduce the post-CMP topography variation. During operation, the system discretizes a layout of an integrated circuit into a plurality of panels. Next, the system computes a feature density and a slack density for the plurality of panels. The system then computes a dummy feature density for the plurality of panels by, iteratively, (a) calculating an effective feature density for the plurality of panels using the feature density and a function that models the CMP process, (b) calculating a filling amount for a set of panels in the plurality of panels using a target feature density, the effective feature density, and the slack density, and (c) updating the feature density, the slack density, and the dummy feature density for the set of panels using the filling amount. In one embodiment of the present invention, the iterative process is guided by a variance-minimizing heuristic to efficiently select the set of panels and assign/remove dummy density to the set of panels to decrease the effective feature density variation.
