| 20120096084 | SHARED MEDIA EXPERIENCE DISTRIBUTION AND PLAYBACK - Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for providing a shared user experience during media playback. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for providing a shared user experience during media playback is provided. The method includes selecting for a particular user a media file for playback in a media player executing in memory by a processor of a computer. The method also includes retrieving a shared user experience audio file recorded for a different user during a previous playback of the selected media file. Finally, the method includes playing back for the particular user both the selected media file and the retrieved shared user experience audio file concurrently in the media player. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20110062555 | SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE HAVING VARACTOR WITH PARALLEL DC PATH ADJACENT THERETO - A semiconductor structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a first region of a first polarity and a second region of a second polarity adjacent to the first region; and a first terminal including: a first deep trench located in the first region, a first node dielectric abutting all but an upper portion of sidewalls and a bottom of the first deep trench; a first conductive inner electrode inside the first node dielectric and electrically insulated from the first region by the first node dielectric; and a first electrical contact electrically coupling the first conductive inner electrode to the first region. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20080258755 | Noise Reduction Among Conductors - Noise reduction among conductors, the conductors disposed adjacent to one another, the conductors characterized as two or more aggressor conductors and one or more victim conductors, a least two of the aggressor conductors driven with at least two signals that induce unwanted crosstalk upon at least one of the victim conductors, a programmable delay device disposed in a signal path of each of the at least two signals that induce unwanted crosstalk, including programming a delay period into each programmable delay device; receiving, simultaneously at the programmable delay devices, the at least two signals that induce unwanted crosstalk; and transmitting, on two aggressor conductors, the at least two signals that induce unwanted crosstalk, with the at least two signals separated in time by the delay period. | 10-23-2008 |
