摘要： Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for fabricating microscale-to-nanoscale interfaces. In numerous embodiments of the present invention, hybrid microscale/nanoscale crossbar multiplexers/demultiplexers provide for selection and control of individual nanowires through a set of microscale signal lines. In order to overcome the difficulty of aligning nanowires with submicroscale and microscale signal lines, at least a portion of the interconnections between nanowires and sub-microscale or microscale signal lines are randomly generated by one of various connection-fabrication methods. Addresses for individual nanowires, or groups of nanowires, can be discovered by testing the microscale-to-nanoscale interfaces.

摘要： The invention provides devices and methods for using acoustics to communicate between a macro-scale transceiver and a micro-device or between multiple micro-devices. The micro-devices may passively scatter sound from a transceiver or actively generate sound. Acoustic waves can also provide power to a micro-device.

摘要： Provided are systems, methods and techniques for insuring decisions within an organization. In representative implementations, project insurance is provided to an individual working on a project for an organization. The project insurance has (i) a payout event that is defined as a failure of the project to meet a specified criterion pertaining to success of the project and (ii) an associated payout benefit. The payout benefit is provided to the individual under the project insurance in the event that the payout event occurs.

摘要： A system for determining latent demand for at least one of a plurality of commodities includes an offer analyzer and a commodity selector. The offer analyzer analyzes at least a plurality of initially unaccepted offers for each of the plurality of commodities. The commodity selector selects at least one of the plurality of commodities to offer for sale which satisfies at least one criteria based on the analysis by the offer analyzer.

摘要： A method and apparatus of reducing variations in nanoscale circuit connections. One exemplary embodiment includes: placing a first connector between a first addressing wire and a first nanowire in a partial circuit; and applying bias to the partial circuit so that a second connector is placed between a second addressing wire and a second nanowire. This method of bias connections is repeated for each wire in the full circuit. Thus, bias is used to influence the positioning of connectors on additional wires (if any) in the full circuit.
