20100325357 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTEGRATION BETWEEN APPLICATION FIREWALL AND CACHING - The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for integrating cache managing and application firewall processing in a networked system. In various embodiments, an integrated cache/firewall system comprises an application firewall operating in conjunction with a cache managing system in operation on an intermediary device. In various embodiments, the application firewall processes a received HTTP response to a request by a networked entity serviced by the intermediary device. The application firewall generates metadata from the HTTP response and stores the metadata in cache with the HTTP response. When a subsequent request hits in the cache, the metadata is identified to a user session associated with the subsequent request. In various embodiments, the application firewall can modify a cache-control header of the received HTTP response, and can alter the cookie-setting header of the cached HTTP response. The system and methods can significantly reduce processing time associated with application firewall processing of web content exchanged over a network. | 12-23-2010 |

20090194026 | PROCESSING SYSTEM FOR FABRICATING COMPOUND NITRIDE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES - One embodiment of a processing system for fabricating compound nitride semiconductor devices comprises one or more processing chamber operable with form a compound nitride semiconductor layer on a substrate, a transfer chamber coupled with the processing chamber, a loadlock chamber coupled with the transfer chamber, and a load station coupled with the loadlock chamber, wherein the load station comprises a conveyor tray movable to convey a carrier plate loaded with one or more substrates into the loadlock chamber. Compared to a single chamber reactor, the multi-chamber processing system expands the potential complexity and variety of compound structures. Additionally, the system can achieve higher quality and yield by specialization of individual chambers for specific epitaxial growth processes. Throughput is increased by simultaneous processing in multiple chambers. | 08-06-2009 |
20100071622 | POLYMERIC COATING OF SUBSTRATE PROCESSING SYSTEM COMPONENTS FOR CONTAMINATION CONTROL - A method of treating a metal surface of a portion of a substrate processing system to lower a defect concentration near a processed surface of a substrate includes forming a protective coating on the metal surface, wherein the protective coating includes nickel (Ni) and a fluoropolymer. Forming the protective coating on the metal surface can further include forming a nickel layer on the metal surface, impregnating the nickel layer with a fluoropolymer, and removing fluoropolymer from the surface leaving a predominantly nickel surface so the fluoropolymer is predominantly subsurface. A substrate processing system includes a process chamber into which a reactant gas is introduced, a pumping system for removing material from the process chamber, a first component with a protective coating, wherein the protective coating forms a surface of the component which is exposed to an interior of the substrate processing chamber or an interior of the pumping system. The protective coating includes nickel (Ni) and a flouropolymer. | 03-25-2010 |

20100076343 | Methods and devices for removing tissue from a patient - The present invention is directed to tissue removal devices and methods. A tubular element having an open distal end is advanced into tissue so that tissue enters the tubular element. The tissue, which entered the tubular element is cut to separate the tissue from the surrounding tissue. The tissue is then transported proximally by the cutting element or a separate transport element. | 03-25-2010 |
20100094088 | TENDON-DRIVEN ENDOSCOPE AND METHODS OF USE - A steerable, tendon-driven endoscope is described herein. The endoscope has an elongated body with a manually or selectively steerable distal portion and an automatically controlled, segmented proximal portion. The steerable distal portion and the segment of the controllable portion are actuated by at least two tendons. As the endoscope is advanced, the user maneuvers the distal portion, and a motion controller actuates tendons in the segmented proximal portion so that the proximal portion assumes the selected curve of the selectively steerable distal portion. By this method the selected curves are propagated along the endoscope body so that the endoscope largely conforms to the pathway selected. When the endoscope is withdrawn proximally, the selected curves can propagate distally along the endoscope body. This allows the endoscope to negotiate tortuous curves along a desired path through or around and between organs within the body. | 04-15-2010 |
20100113922 | Methods and devices for removing tissue from a patient and placing a marker in the patient - The device is used to remove tissue from a patient and to also place a marker in the patient. The device has an opening through which tissue enters the device. The tissue, which enters the opening is cut and the tissue is removed. The device may be used a number of times to remove a number of tissue masses. The device also includes a marker, which the user may release in the patient at the desired time. | 05-06-2010 |
