摘要:
The invention provides a solution for managing a business engagement between a provider and a client. The business engagement relates business value of a client to practices of a provider to determine elements of a value priced contract. The invention obtains prioritized business requirements and maps them to priorities that are used to derive metrics, which can be inputted into a proposed contract. Furthermore, client empirical data and/or provider empirical data can be used during contract generation. The invention may further perform the aforementioned mapping by examining efficiency, effectiveness, alignment, and/or transformation metrics of the provider and/or the client. The invention may further determine apportionment of value and risk between the client and the provider for each resulting element determined. In this manner, the invention provides an improved solution for managing a business engagement by comparing client/provider capabilities and selecting elements to include in the contract.

In semiconductor devices such as laser diodes (LD) and light emitting diodes (LED) based on gallium nitride thin films, low defect density is desired in the gallium nitride film. In the fabrication of such devices on a silicon carbide substrate surface, the gallium nitride film is formed on the silicon carbide substrate after the substrate surface is etched using hydrogen at an elevated temperature. In another embodiment, an aluminum nitride film is formed as a buffer layer between the gallium nitride film and the silicon carbide substrate, and, prior to aluminum nitride formation, the substrate surface is etched using hydrogen at an elevated temperature.

A filter apparatus includes an enclosure defining a plurality of cavities. A pair of resonators are located in a corresponding pair of the cavities. The filter apparatus further includes an elongated coupling structure operatively interposed between the pair of resonators. The elongated coupling structure is spaced from each of those resonators uniformly along its length.

A retaining module for forming a vertical wall for retaining the earth or similar medium from which a pool, pond or stream is to be constructed. The retaining module has a vertical beam and a horizontal beam integrally molded as a single module, or alternatively, separately molded and fastened together. Several such retaining modules are combined with earth retaining blankets and means for anchoring a flexible water tight membrane in the ground to form a substantially permanent and watertight structure to create a pool, pond or stream.

A ceramic package component has a base portion and an upstanding enclosing wall on the base portion, the upper surface of the wall being provided with an electrically conductive coating in order to receive a lid sealingly thereon. The electrically conductive coating on the upper surface of the wall is electrically connected to a further conductive coating on the undersurface of the base portion by means of a high density array of conductive vias extending through the wall. The inter via spacing between adjacent vias is preferably less than one quarter of the wavelength of the frequency at which the component is to operate.
摘要:
A frozen cauliflower product containing a concentration of sodium acid pyrophosphate (hereinafter refered to as "SAPP") of at least about 0.07% by weight, the primary purpose of which is to prevent discoloration but with the additional advantage of stabilizing the texture and also the taste properties of the frozen cauliflower pieces during frozen storage. The method for treating the cauliflower includes adding the SAPP during the preparation of the cauliflower for the freezing step of the process.
摘要:
A nunchaku device comprising an elongated tubular handle member having one open end which telescopically receives one end of a second solid handle member. The telescopic ends of the two handles are connected by a cord which carries an intermediate section, slidable along the interior of the first tubular member, and movable from an inward location in the interior of the first handle member to a position adjacent the opened end of the first handle so as to provide a means for centering the cord with respect to the periphery of the handle. Detent means carried by the second handle are engageable at selected locations along the length of the first handle so as to permit the second handle to lockingly engage the first handle at said selected positions.

A shut-off system for a dispenser includes a pinch member that moves relative to a guide and which is normally biased against a flexible outlet tube that is disposed therebetween. The flexible outlet tube that carries material, such as soap, supplied from a pump to an outlet nozzle. The pump and the pinch member are in operative engagement with an actuator, such that when the actuator is not engaged, the pinch member closes the outlet tube to prevent residual material retained in the outlet tube from flowing or drooling out of the outlet nozzle. Correspondingly, when the actuator is engaged, the pump is compressed, and the pinch member is moved away from the outlet tube, allowing the material to be pumped through the outlet tube and dispensed from the outlet nozzle.
