摘要:
The present invention provides a method for processing a photolithographic substrate, comprising the placement of the photolithographic substrate on a support member in a chamber wherein the photolithographic substrate has an initial temperature of about zero degrees Celsius to about fifty degrees Celsius. A heat transfer fluid is introduced into the chamber to cool the photolithographic substrate to a target temperature of less than about zero degrees Celsius to less than about minus forty degrees Celsius. The cooled photolithographic substrate is subjected to a plasma process before the temperature of the cooled photolithographic substrate reaches the initial temperature.
摘要:
Described is a surgical system for monitoring a patient's condition during surgery. One aspect is a non-contact EEG sensor. The non-contact EEG sensor can be used to predict the onset of physiological disorders. Another aspect includes the use of a plurality of pressure sensors to determine the pressure applied by retractors on the patient, including the brain and other organs.

A tissue-contact seeking method and apparatus is described that enhances catheter position detection and control systems in making and maintaining continuous tissue contact in a highly dynamic frame, such as under the rigors of cardiac motion. Tissue-seeking logical routines use a tissue contact sensing system to advance a catheter to relatively continuous tissue contact, or detect obstacles, in cooperation with the catheter position detection and control systems. Additional logical routines are capable of optimizing the contact direction of the catheter tip by controlling the rotation angle and chamber position of the introducer.

Architecture for centralized photo storage for user profiles with consent and cardkey system integration. A picture picker can connect to a cardkey/security badge photo system to allow users to choose from badge photos. Consent is also captured by the picker to allow user photos to be used in other applications. Other applications can interact with the photo storage using standard web services and APIs for the user profile and user profile change log services. Centralized storage and insured accessibility enable applications to consume from the photo storage. The photo storage can also function as a virtual directory with distributed storage as utilized for geographical deployments. Extensions of the photo storage can include an add-in for a personal information manager application and a management agent for web-based collaboration and document management to copy photos from/to other directory structures.
摘要:
A method and apparatus supporting a discovery technique of multiple available networks is disclosed. A global network neighborhood data depository contains attributes of multiple networks that are available in a geographic region. The attributes aid in network discovery and selection of an optimum network for communication for devices capable of communicating via multiple networks.

The present invention provides a method of making a zero-fold dilatation balloon. Typically, the method includes: providing a tubular parison comprising a polymeric material; providing a source of heat and pressure for forming a balloon pre-form; heating, stretching, and expanding the tubular parison to form an expanded parison without confining the size of the expanded parison by a mold wall internal surface; and subjecting the resultant parison to a heat setting process to form a zero-fold balloon having a uniform profile along its entire length in a deflated state.
