A system and method are disclosed for creating a database of expansion phrases for abbreviated terms. The database can be created by submitting a plurality of abbreviated terms and receiving a corresponding results set. The possible expansion phrases can be extracted from the results set, and expansion phrases are selected from the possible expansion phrases using filter rules. The selected expansion phrases may be ranked in a particular order, associated with the abbreviated term, and stored in a database.

A measurable means to evaluate a given relevancy verification process to a human decision process is provided. For example, a cognitive concept relationship (CCR) system can be utilized to provide a relevancy verification evaluation that is independent of the relevancy quality of the test data employed to train the relevancy verification algorithm under test. This provides a means to evaluate relevancy verification of, for example, keyword/item pairs for any number of business applications with different relevance standards and/or changes in relevance standards over time, without the need to manually re-label the test data and/or re-measure the algorithmic relevancy.

Methods and systems for displaying data retrieved from a multi-dimensional data source via an interactive data diagram. A graphical user interface is responsive to input from a user to retrieve multi-dimensional data for display via an interactive data diagram. The interactive data diagram displays multi-dimensional data in a hierarchical structure that includes a plurality of dimension levels and one or more member levels within each dimension level. A user specifies a change to the display structure by selecting a displayed member level in the hierarchical structure. The interactive data diagram is responsive to the user specified change to generate a drilled down data diagram displaying detailed dimension and member levels related to the selected member level.

A Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) cell in an NVM array is read out using other NVM cells in the array as a load element. Conventional load elements such as MOS transistors or resistors used to vary the bitline potential for the NVM cell readout in conventional NVM arrays are replaced with NVM cell(s) in the array. The omission of the extra MOS transistors or resistors for the load elements not only saves silicon area but also simplifies the bitline sensing circuitry design in the NVM array.

Innovative self-adaptive and self-calibrated methods and structures for Multi-Level Cell (MLC) Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) are disclosed. In the MLC NVM, NVM cells are self-adaptively programmed into a fixed response tolerance window centered at the reference current or voltage corresponding to a selected level gate voltage applied to the controlled gates of NVM cells. The fixed response tolerance window is related to the threshold voltage tolerance window through the sense circuit gain. Properly choosing the sense circuit gain and the response window can control the threshold voltage tolerance window to a desired value. An incremental gate voltage larger than the threshold voltage tolerance window of each NVM cell will guarantee that each NVM cell will produce the correct output current (voltage) in response to applying to the control gate of the NVM cell the stepped voltage corresponding to the level of information stored in the NVM cell. As the stepped voltage applied to the gate of an NVM cell transitions from a voltage just below the threshold voltage of the NVM cell to a voltage corresponding to the threshold voltage of the NVM cell, the output current (voltage) from the NVM cell will pass the current (voltage) transition in comparison with the reference current (voltage). The current (voltage) transition can be detected and converted into the bit-word information representing the voltage level stored in the NVM cell. When the response of an NVM cell falls outside the response tolerance window into the guard-band regions, the NVM cell can be re-calibrated and the bit-word information can be saved from fading away.

Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) cells are connected in inverter configurations. The NVM inverter's Voltage Transfer Characteristics (VTC) is used to verify and adjust threshold voltage levels of a Multi-Level Cell (MLC) in an NVM. In one embodiment, the NVM cell is fast programmed to a specific threshold voltage level. The cell threshold level is then verified by applying a gate voltage corresponding to the selected threshold voltage to the NVM inverter. The output voltage of the NVM inverter in response to the applied level gate voltage is detected. When the output voltage of the NVM inverter is out of a predefined output voltage window for the selected threshold voltage level, a fine-tuning programming sequence is applied to the NVM cell until the threshold voltage of the NVM cell is inside the correspondent threshold voltage window. This verification and adjustment scheme for a MLC NVM allows the threshold voltage of the multi-level NVM cells for any specific level to be controlled to a desired accuracy.

Storage of information represented by a multi-bit word in a single non-volatile memory cell is made possible by programming the threshold voltage of the non-volatile memory to a specific threshold level corresponding to the multi-bit word. Stored or generated multi-bit words are scanned and converted into a gate voltage to be applied to the non-volatile memory cell until the electrical response from the non-volatile memory cell indicates that the voltage generated from the specific multi-bit word which has been applied to the gate matches the information stored in the non-volatile memory cell. The matched multi-bit word is read out of storage and represents the stored bits in the single non-volatile memory cell.

In accordance with a method and system for centralized network usage tracking, documents on a network server include a reference to content on a centralized logging server. When one of the documents is accessed by a client computer, the process of rendering the content at the client computer includes requesting the content from the logging server. The logging server, upon receipt of such a request, logs information embedded in the request and returns a trivial response which requires little time and which rendering of need not be perceivable by the user.
