摘要:
Embodiment of the present invention provides a method of forming electronic fuse or commonly known as e-fuse. The method includes forming a polysilicon structure and a field-effect-transistor (FET) structure together on top of a common semiconductor substrate, the FET structure having a sacrificial gate electrode; implanting at least one dopant into the polysilicon structure to create a doped polysilicon layer in at least a top portion of the polysilicon structure; subjecting the polysilicon structure and the FET structure to a reactive-ion-etching (RIE) process, the RIE process selectively removing the sacrificial gate electrode of the FET structure while the doped polysilicon layer being substantially unaffected by the RIE process; and converting the polysilicon structure including the doped polysilicon layer into a silicide to form the electronic fuse.

For use in visible light communication (VLC), methods for synchronization with multiple topology support and for transmitting an extended preamble. The method for synchronization includes transmitting a two-part preamble sequence. The preamble sequence includes one or more repetitions of a fast locking pattern (FLP) configured to be used for clock synchronization, and one or more repetitions of a topology dependent pattern (TDP) configured to be used to distinguish a plurality of VLC topologies. The method for transmitting an extended preamble includes generating an extended preamble and transmitting the extended preamble during a receive or idle mode for maintaining visibility support and for better synchronization performance.

A multi-pass video encoder includes a video encoding module that encodes a video signal based on an initial configuration data set to generate an initial processed video signal and an initial output data set. An application coding control module generates the initial configuration data set and generates a first updated configuration data set based on both the initial processed video signal and the initial output data set. The video encoding module further encodes the video signal based on the first updated configuration data set to generate a first updated processed video signal and a first updated output data set.
摘要:
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing authorization control in a cloud storage system. The method comprises: receiving an access request to a file block, wherein the file block is embedded with tag data comprising at least file block authorization information; retrieving the file block; extracting the file block authorization information from the tag data; determining whether the access request matches the file block authorization information; and performing the access request if the access request matches the file block authorization information. Effective authorization control may be performed in a cloud storage system.
摘要:
Communication between base station controllers and a mobile switching center may be provided by a consolidating device that operates between the BSCs and the MSCs. One example method of operation may include initiating an active process on an active network device and a standby process on a redundant network device configured as a backup to the active network device. Other operations may include receiving a data message from at least one base station controller on the active network device, and detecting a communication failure by at least one of the active process and the standby process, in response to the received data message. Other operations may include automatically configuring the redundant network device to become the active network device.
