A dispatching method of manufacturing integrated circuit (IC) by push and pull two-way is to decide the dispatching orders of lots of wafers in each workstation. First, the priorities of lots of wafers is determined, and then the dispatching method of manufacturing IC by push and pull two-way is proceeded to run several push steps and pull steps. The push step is to dispatch wafers directly from upper process, no matter the lower units are crowded or delayed. On the other hand, the pull step is first to concern deficiencies in the lower unit, and then to dispatch wafers from the upper units. After proceeding the push steps and the pull steps, the other lots of wafers are dispatched by their original priorities. The dispatching method of manufacturing IC by push and pull two-way has the advantage of increasing the utilities of equipments.

The invention relates to a television having an improved file path identification and display system and method. The improved file path identification and method maintains two sets of data strings that refer to the same operation objects. One set of strings is for the user interface display. The other set of strings is for system manipulation. In another words, operation strings might have different associated display string values and each operation string might have its corresponding display string stored in the system. The method might further dynamically assemble display strings into abbreviated or short hand form. The method, therefore, can maximize the display data.

Java Applets are packaged in a JAR file, including accompanying classes and resources as well as one addition file—a descriptor file. This last file can be read from the JAR file, and scanned to extract an icon to represent the applet on a menu, the applet's name in market applicable languages, applet size and position, and the applets main class name. No further processing need be done to present this applet to the user for selection. The entire applet need not be loaded into memory until the user requests it by using a remote control to select one of the applets represented on the display by a labeled icon. Once the user has selected the application, the applet can be sized and launched without further scanning.

Method and apparatus for use with televisions having an internal Java engine are included among the embodiments. In exemplary systems, a PCMCIA port allows the Java engine to load and execute Java applets selected by the viewer. Provision is made for system-aware applets to run concurrently with platform-independent applets on different Java display planes that are merged for display. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

The invention relates to an improved interactive television having an alert manager. The alert manager alerts a viewer of events. For example, the alert manager alerts the viewer that email has arrived in his inbox or that a text message has been sent to his computer. The alert manager manages event alerts in an easy and non-intrusive manner to enhance the viewer's experience.

The invention relates to an improved television remote control system and method with alphanumeric keyboard input. The alphanumeric keyboard input might be used in interactive televisions to control applications and functions. The remote control includes alphanumeric and controls keyboards, an encoder to encode the alphanumeric and control keyboards with alphanumeric and control codes, respectively, and a transmitter to transmit the alphanumeric and control codes to the television.

Some embodiments of the invention include a television system having an internal microphone for implementing a voice-messaging system. Using the microphone, the television system detects a message spoken by a user of the television system, and records the message to a memory. Some embodiments of the invention may also record metadata about the message. Embodiments of the invention alert an intended recipient of the message using the audio output or video output of the television system, and subsequently reproduce the message using the audio output of the television system. Other embodiments of the invention are described in the specification and the claims.
