摘要： The invention provides an improved network and methods of operation thereof for use in or with process control systems, computer-based manufacturing or production control systems, environmental control systems, industrial control system, and the like (collectively, “control systems”). Those networks utilize a unique combination of firewalls, intrusion detection systems, intrusion protection devices and/or other devices for hardening (e.g., security against hacking, intrusion or other mischievous conduct) and/or intrusion detection. The networks and methods have application, by way of example, in plants, sites and other facilities in which networks that support control systems interface with corporate, business or other networks.

摘要： The present invention relates to methods for post-etch, particularly post-RIE, removal of fluorocarbon-based residues from a hybrid dielectric structure. The hybrid dielectric structure contains a first dielectric material, and a line-level dielectric layer containing a second, different dielectric material, and wherein said second, different dielectric material comprises a polymeric thermoset dielectric material having a dielectric constant less than 4. Low energy electron beam or low temperature annealing is utilized by the present invention for removal of the fluorocarbon-based residues from such a hybrid dielectric structure, without damaging the low-k polymeric thermoset dielectric material contained in such a hybrid dielectric structure.
