Abstract:
Management of links, such as URLs or other link formats, that have been embedded within blocks of data, such as data received by an E-mail application program, file transfer program, or other data transfer environment. When a block of data is received, an agent or other construct examines the block of data to identify links within the block of data. Meta-data associated with the link is extracted, and the link and associated meta-data is stored in a collective. The collective may be displayed and organized with a viewer. The viewer may be integral to an application program, such as an E-mail application program, or it may integral to an operating system, or it may be a standalone application program.
Abstract:
A method of determining a treatment plan for intensity modulated radiation treatment (IMRT) divides a three-dimensional volume of a patient into a grid of dose voxels. At least a portion of the dose voxels are designated to belong to at least one target or to at least one critical structure. An ionizing radiation dose as delivered by a plurality of beamlets each having a beamlet intensity is modeled. A non-linear convex voxel-based penalty function model is provided for optimizing a fluence map. The fluence map defines the beamlet intensities for each of the plurality of beamlets. The model is then solved based on defined clinical criteria for the target and the critical structure using an interior point algorithm with dense column handling to obtain a globally optimal fluence map.
Abstract:
A messaging system is provided whereby a message indicative of an invitation to collaboratively execute an application can be sent from one of the computing object to an intermediary system whereby the message is multicast to the other ones of the plurality of computing objects. The invitation message can be accepted by the other computing objects to cause the first object to launch the corresponding application. The other computing objects also launch versions of the application and exchange addressing information with the first application so that a multiparty application execution can be established.

Abstract:
A system comprising a communications link between processors configured to transmit packets between transmitting and receiving processors. The communications link comprises a conduction path for each bit in the packet and the paths are grouped into separate bundles and routed along different paths. A forwarded clock signal is sent with each bundle. The processors operate with a clock frequency that is roughly three times as fast as the clock frequency of the forwarded clock signal. Data is transmitted on both rising and falling edges of the clock. The receiving processor comprises a recovery circuit to which it pulls the asynchronous data into the processor clock domain. The recovery circuit comprises a delay locked loop circuit configured to create a delayed copy of the clock signal with clock edges that are aligned with the center of the data window for the transmitted data.
Abstract:
In a DRAM memory circuit, a current sensing amplifier is provided that exploits the low impedance of a reference transistor biased in the sub-threshold regime to enable transfer of a small voltage swing on the bitline to result in a large voltage signal on a low capacitance sense node. Compared to conventional voltage sensing, reduced bitline-bitline coupling noise results because of the small bitline swing, potentially allowing more cells to be served by a sense amplifier because of weak dependence of sense amplifier on bit-line capacitance. Compared to previous current-sensing schemes, this invention allows no idling current. The current-sensing amplifier additionally may be used in conjunction with a hierarchical bitline scheme to further increase the number of cells served by each sense amplifier.

Abstract:
A method and system for cascading power consumption is described herein. The method may include providing power to a first sensor and a second sensor, wherein the first sensor consumes more power than the second sensor. The method may also include detecting the first sensor does not capture a sample of data. In addition, the method may include stopping the flow of power to the first sensor. Furthermore, the method may include monitoring an operating environment with the second sensor. The method may also include providing power to the first sensor in response to the second sensor detecting a sample of data.
