A user of a personal computing device may identify an item of interest displayed in a user interface provided by a network-based service and would like to obtain more information. The user may submit one or more electronic contact requests to a contact service in communication with a contact distribution system in order to obtain more information. The contact distribution system determines accurate, real-time availability of service agents and enables communications between the customer and an agent to be established in accordance with user contact information provided by the user.
Abstract:
An apparatus for monitoring an ion distribution of a wafer comprises a first sensor and a sensor. The first sensor, the second sensor and the wafer are placed in an effective range of a uniform ion implantation current profile. A controller determines the ion dose of each region of the wafer based upon the detected signal from the first sensor and the second sensor. In addition, the controller adjusts the scanning frequency of an ion beam or the movement speed of the wafer to achieve a uniform ion distribution on the wafer.
Abstract:
A system and method of appropriate services detection for a smart building are disclosed in the present invention. The invention may select appropriate services for a house or a building. After a user lives in a smart building with the system of the present invention for a period of time, the system uses the service gateway to collect and analyze environment information and appliance information so as to find relationship within appliances, sensors and actuators. Thus the cloud service platform selects appropriate services for the building to avoid downloading or installing an inappropriate service by a user. Further the cloud service platform may suggest a user buying additional equipment for matching the requirement of a service. The system of the present invention may learn a relationship of devices; locate positions of devices; and automatically collect state data of appliances to identify the appliances.
Abstract:
For improving the brightness decay of a display due to its aging, a non-volatile memory such as Flash can be used to store a brightness accumulation value of each point of the display, and each point can be compensated for its brightness accordingly. However, the non-volatile memory suffers from incorrect write-in data or temporary power disconnection, and thus the error will exist all the time to make the display non-even. Hence, the present invention uses a multiple data backups and CRC error detection, plus new/old data comparison to protect data the non-volatile memory from incorrect brightness compensation value so as to uniform the brightness of the display.

A power tracking device and a power tracking method is disclosed herein. The power tracking device includes a power voltage setting circuit, a switch, a switching signal circuit, and a voltage memory circuit. The switching signal circuit is configured for sending a first control signal to the switch. When the switch receives the first control signal and electrically isolates the power source and the power voltage setting circuit, the voltage memory circuit stores an open circuit voltage of the power source and sends a setting voltage relative to the open circuit voltage, and when the switch receives the first control signal and electrically connects the power source and the power voltage setting circuit, the power voltage setting circuit sets an output voltage of the power source to correspond with the setting voltage.
Abstract:
A magnetoresistive memory has first and second magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) elements operated differentially, each with a pinned magnetic layer and a free magnetic layer that can have field alignments that are parallel or anti-parallel, producing differential high and low resistance states representing a bit cell value. Writing a high resistance state to an element requires an opposite write current polarity through the pinned and free layers, and differential operation requires that the two MTJ elements be written to different resistance states. One aspect is to arrange or connect the layers in normal and reverse order relative to a current bias source, thereby achieving opposite write current polarities relative to the layers using the same current polarity relative to the current bias source. The differentially operated MTJ elements can supplement or replace single MTJ elements in a nonvolatile memory bit cell array.
