摘要:
A method, a system and a computer program product for re-using verification results associated with a circuit design to eliminate a formal verification re-run associated with a subsequent verification of the circuit design. A Verification Data Re-use (VDR) utility initiates the creation of a first netlist data structure and a first set of target signatures for the circuit design. The VDR utility initiates an initial functional verification run of the circuit design and stores the results of the verification run. When a subsequent verification of the initial design is initiated, the VDR utility compares the first set of target signatures with a second set of target signatures for the subsequent verification run. A match of target signatures indicates that corresponding design targets have an identical functionality and the VDR utility re-uses verification results from the initial verification run to eliminate an extensive formal verification

A medical device suitable for introducing a medical instrument into a patient includes an outer cannula and at least one arm connected to the cannula toward a proximal portion of the at least one arm. The at least one arm is deployable between a closed position and an open position. An inner member is telescopically received in the outer cannula to hold each arm in the closed position. The inner member is deployable to disengage from the arm after the device is inserted into a patient, thereby freeing the arm to be deployed to the open position where it helps hold the outer cannula in the patient. The inner member includes an inner cannula and/or a trocar.

An improved stent design and stent delivery catheter assembly for repairing a main vessel and a side branch vessel forming a bifurcation. The stent is advanced to a bifurcation so that the main stent section is in the main vessel, and the portal section covers at least a portion of the opening to the side branch vessel. A low profile catheter having a branch with an inflation balloon and a balloon-less branch are maintained in a joined configuration during delivery of the catheter to the deployment site. Radiopaque markers on the balloon and on the balloon-less shaft enable the longitudinal and rotational orientation of the assembly to be fluoroscopically envisioned. The inflation of the balloon causes the stent to be expanded while the presence of the balloon-less shaft causes the stent's side portal to be opened sufficiently to allow for a subsequent expansion procedure.
摘要:
A plastic article having a number of surfaces with at least one surface being modified by contacting that surface with a reactive gas atmosphere containing F.sub.2, Cl.sub.2, O.sub.2, Ozone, SO.sub.3, oxidative acids, or mixtures thereof, at a temperature and gas partial pressure sufficient to increase the surface energy of the at least one surface being modified to at least 40 dynes/cm at a temperature of 20.degree. C., to enhance bonding of non-slip polymer coatings to the modified surface, to which coatings elastomeric or rigid particles may be admixed for imparting a surface profile and increasing the coefficient of friction between the coated surface and the counter-surface.

A plastic laminate sheet for making collapsible dispensing container comprises an outer layer of filled-plastic made of polypropylene or a blend of polypropylene, and high density polyethylene, and a filler, preferably calcium carbonate, incorporated therein. The outer filled-plastic layer is coextensively bonded to an inner layer of high density polyethylene to form the laminate sheet. An intermediate layer of an oxygen barrier plastic may be interposed in the laminate sheet in order to impart oxygen impermeability thereto.

The present invention provides waterproof, breathable non-textile seamed articles which exhibit high levels of durability and allow wearers a high level of flexibility and article strength. This invention is of particular interest for use in dexterous hand coverings and conformable foot coverings.
摘要:
Methods and systems are provided for dynamically generating a hint set for enhanced reachability analysis in a sequential circuitry design that is represented by a Binary Decision Diagram (BDD). After determining a ranking of the BDD variables, they are sorted in the order of the ranking. The ranking is used to select some of the variables for use in creating hints for more efficiently performing the reachability analysis in a creating an equivalent sequential circuitry design.
