Abstract:
A method and system are disclosed for creating dynamic models of etch processes in semiconductor manufacturing. In one embodiment, a method comprises modeling an etch process used in semiconductor manufacturing to generate a dynamic process model. The dynamic process model is used to determine input values that result in a desired output value. A process recipe is optimized for the etch process with the input values.
Abstract:
A method and system are disclosed for improving the performance of a multiline transmission system by using one or more split-pair receivers in a multiline communications system to identify crosstalk on a pair of transceivers coupled to the split pair receivers, wherein each split pair receiver receives a signal including the crosstalk from each transceiver and provides a corresponding signal vector to a post processing unit, and performing MIMO post-processing on signal vectors received at a receiver from each transceiver and each split-pair receiver while minimizing crosstalk on pairs of lines in the multiline communications system with a frequency equalizer.
Abstract:
A method and system for providing window shaping for multiline transmission in a communications system are described. A last portion of a prefix symbol is extracted. A prefix with a prefix window is shaped to create a shaped prefix. A DMT symbol is shaped with a DMT window to create a shaped DMT symbol. The shaped DMT symbol is combined with the shaped prefix.
Abstract:
A method and system for joint spindle speed and head position control in rotating media storage systems are described. A controller changes the rotation speed of a spindle assembly based upon the position information of a desired data sector. This controller may also control the actuator assembly based upon the position information of the desired data sector.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products for managing and selectively distributing routing information in a routing node are disclosed. In one implementation, a method for selectively distributing routing information in a routing node includes organizing internal signaling resources are organized so as to facilitate the efficient mapping of signaling system 7 (SS7) message transfer part (MTP) signaling protocol attributes to Internet protocol (IP)-based signaling resources. A routing status information sharing hierarchy is defined, which enables routing status information to be efficiently shared among members of a signaling mateset group. Members of a signaling mateset replicate and distribute SS7 MTP network management information across non-MTP signaling connections, such as IP connections.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for performing stateful signaling transactions in a distributed processing environment are disclosed. A method for performing stateful signaling transactions in a distributed processing environment includes receiving a signaling message at a routing node, such as a signal transfer point. The signaling message is distributed to one of the plurality of stateful processing modules. The receiving stateful processing module buffers the signaling message and initiates a stateful transaction based on the signaling message. Initiating the stateful transaction may include generating a query message and inserting a stateful processing module identifier in the query message. The query message is sent to an external node, such as an SCP, which formulates a response. The SCP may insert the stateful processing module in the response and send the response back to the signal transfer point. The signal transfer point decodes the response and uses the stateful processing module identifier to forward the response to the correct stateful processing module.
Abstract:
A method for computer aided design of a product or process. The method includes the steps of representing a computer-aided design activity as a design cycle. The design cycle is then converted into individual iterations of decisions to be made within the design cycle. The individual iterations of decisions are then mapped into a hierarchical structure of influence diagrams. The decision making process of the influence diagrams are performed and data is collected from the decision process that has been performed. The remaining unexecuted decisions and their posterior probabilities are updated based upon the outcomes of the decision process that was most recently performed.
