20160049214 | COUPLING BETWEEN NANOSTRUCTURES AND OPTICAL FIBERS - Technologies are generally provided for enhancing optical coupling between nanostructures, such as a nanowire, and an optical element, such as an optical fiber, for example in order to enable effective optical communication. A nanostructure may be automatically aligned with an optical fiber by suspending the nanowire within a fluid and causing the nanowire to align itself with a tip of the optical fiber also suspended within the fluid. Light may be directed through the optical fiber to induce an optical gradient in the fluid near the optical fiber tip. The optical gradient may attract the nanowire to the tip of the optical fiber, and may cause to align with the optical fiber. Post-alignment, the nanowire may be permanently coupled with the optical fiber to form a nanowire-optical fiber assembly to couple light between the optical fiber and a nanophotonic circuit integrated with the nanowire. | 02-18-2016 |

20100122123 | METHOD FOR GUARANTEEING CONSISTENCY OF FUNCTIONAL PARTS ACROSS A SOFTWARE INSTALLATION IN A COMPUTER - A method for guaranteeing consistency of functional parts across a software installation in a computer that is platform and language independent. Specifically, each software installation will contain a part, for example a DLL that exports a function or variable, which is available to other parts in the installation. All other parts in the installation, for example, executable files and other DLLs, will reference the exported resource. The name of the exported resource should evoke a particular software level and be specific to the software installation it belongs to. All other software installations on the same computer will follow this practice. Thus, all parts in a software installation will effectively reference a software level (via an exported resource). When the multiple parts of software are loaded into computer memory prior to execution of the software, the operating system will attempt to resolve references to the exported resource. If a software part has been modified such that it refers to an inconsistent export resource, the operating system will produce an error at software load time, immediately identifying the inconsistent part. | 05-13-2010 |
