A scalable workflow management system is provided that includes queues for storing work items to be processed. Work items may be placed into the queues by front-end services executing within the workflow management system. When a work item is placed on a queue, it remains on the queue until an appropriate back-end service is available to de-queue the work item, validate the de-queued work item, and process the de-queued work item. Separate queues are provided for storing normal work items, work items generated according to a time schedule, and work items generated by job launching services. The state of operation of the workflow management system may be controlled by an administrative console application.

It is very difficult to produce a negative wall angle from either negative or positive-tone chemically amplified resists, especially by e-beam lithography. This problem has now been overcome by first forming a photoresist pedestal in the conventional way, followed by flood exposing with electrons. Then, a second development treatment is given. This results in removal of additional material from the sidewalls, said removal being greatest at the substrate and least at the pedestal's top surface, resulting in negatively sloping sidewalls. Application of this method to a process for forming a pole tip for a vertical magnetic writer is also discussed.

Current cell values are provided to a client using two-passes. When a first request to provide values is received during a first pass, default values are provided to the client. Upon receiving each value request, the formula parameters are collected that are associated with the cell. The formula parameters are parsed to determine data that is to be retrieved from a database. Once the locations for all of the data to be retrieved has been determined, the data is retrieved from a database in as few as hits as possible. After obtaining the current values from the database, the client is informed to request the values a second time. When the second request to provide values is received, the client is provided with the calculated values during the second pass.
