    摘要: A plug retention apparatus for use in securing two plug members together to prevent undesired disengagement. The plug retention apparatus is affixed to a first plug member using a retention ring which provides a means for adjustable positioning via a threaded coupling to facilitate securing a second plug member to the first plug member. A plug clamp may be rotatably positioned about the second plug member retaining the plug members in a desired position. The plug retention apparatus may include a sleeve removably disposed about the cord of the first plug. The clamp used for retaining the second plug may include a cord support, a latch to secure the cord on the support and a locking mechanism to selectively retain the latch in a closed position.

    摘要: A method and system schedules inbound inquiries, such as inbound telephone calls, for response by agents in an order that is based in part on the forecasted outcome of the inbound inquiries. A scheduling module applies inquiry information to a model to forecast the outcome of an inbound inquiry. The forecasted outcome is used to set a priority value for ordering the inquiry. The priority value may be determined by solving a constrained optimization problem that seeks to maximize an objective function, such as maximizing an agent's productivity to produce sales or to minimize inbound call attrition. The inbound call may be placed on a virtual hold or be responded to on a real-time basis based on the inbound inquiry's priority value. A modeling module generates models that forecast inquiry outcomes based on a history and inquiry information. Statistical analysis such as regression analysis determines the model with the outcome related to the nature of the inquiry. Forecasted outcomes are based on the goal of the inbound calls and include factors such as probability an inbound caller will hang up, probability that an inbound caller will alter a business relationship based on hold time, probability that an inbound caller will make a purchase, and the relative probable reward of responding to an inbound call.

    摘要: A hand-held fluorescent lamp assembly powered by typical line supply of 120 VAC, 60 Hz via an attached power cord and employing multiple commonly available fluorescent lamps. The assembly includes switches to independently control the multiple fluorescent lamps. The assembly includes lightweight solid state power regulation components. The power regulation circuit employs a self-oscillating circuit that is approximately matched in frequency of oscillation to the natural frequency of the fluorescent lamp load to automatically ignite the fluorescent lamps. The power regulation circuit includes circuit elements to automatically protect the ballast circuit and lamps from overdrawing in the run state and from abnormal load conditions.

    摘要: A method for repeatably fabricating GaAs/ZnSe and other III-V/II-VI semiconductor interfaces with relatively low stacking fault densities in II-VI semiconductor devices such as laser diodes. The method includes providing a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system including at least a group III element source, a group II element source, a group V element source and a group VI element source. A semiconductor substrate having a III-V semiconductor surface on which the interface is to be fabricated is positioned within the MBE system. The substrate is then heated to a temperature suitable for III-V semiconductor growth, and a crystalline III-V semiconductor buffer layer grown on the III-V surface of the substrate. The temperature of the semiconductor substrate is then adjusted to a temperature suitable for II-VI semiconductor growth, and a crystalline II-VI semiconductor buffer layer grown on the III-V buffer layer by alternating beam epitaxy. The group II and group VI sources are operated to expose the III-V buffer layer to a group II element flux before exposing the III-V buffer layer to a group VI element flux.

    摘要: A lightguide preform is fabricated by depositing a thin carbon layer (40) on a cylindrical glass mandrel (30) and further depositing a plurality of glassy soot layers (32) thereover. The resulting composite structure is heated, in a furnace, at a low temperature to remove the carbon layer (40) and then heated at an elevated temperature to consolidate the glassy soot layers on the glass mandrel to form the lightguide preform.

    摘要: The modified chemical vapor deposition process is practiced using an rf source as the external heat source. An rf plasma is thus established within a glass tube through which appropriate glass precursor vapors are passed. As a result of the ensuing chemical reactions, particulate material is formed within the tube and deposits on it. The hot plasma zone may be used to consolidate this particulate material into a transparent glass, and onto the interior wall of the tube. The tube is subsequently drawn into an optical fiber.
