20090138787	METHODS AND ARRANGEMENTS FOR PARTIAL WORD STORES IN NETWORKING ADAPTERS - Typically, in designs for networking adapters, challenges are encountered where a partial word (e.g., 16 bit of IP checksum) has to be inserted into packets in buffers that are typically aligned to bus widths (e.g., 64 bit as in the case of 8× PCI Express interface). In fact, this is frequently required in hardware logic that implements a “checksum offload” feature. In many conventional designs, the hardware logic is required to insert the partial word into any given offset into the packet; this insert position in the buffers could be odd or even. Broadly contemplated herein, in accordance with at least one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention, is the implementation of a simple algorithm to store the 2 B IP checksum into any unaligned position within an 8 B word. This avoids the use of a logic-intensive implementation that employs 16 1:8 demultiplexers, or a latency-increasing approach of “read-modify-write”.	05-28-2009

20080229268	Trace optimization in flattened netlist by storing and retrieving intermediate results - A method of trace optimization in a flattened netlist of a circuit is disclosed. The method generally includes the steps of (A) generating a first total result by tracing a first path through the flattened netlist, (B) writing an intermediate result in a memory, the intermediate result characterizing a module having a plurality of instances in the circuit, (C) adding the intermediate result as read from the memory to the first total result upon crossing each of the instances of the module along the first path and (D) writing the first total result into the memory.	09-18-2008

20090022456	OPTICAL FIBER PROBE TIPS AND METHODS FOR FABRICATING SAME - Optical fiber probe tips and methods for fabricating the same are presented. One method entails immersing a distal end of an optical fiber having a cladding and a core into an etching solution and simultaneously etching the cladding and the core using the etching solution for tapering the cladding and the core to form a tapered cladding and a tapered core tip. The optical fiber probe tips are suitable for near-field, scanning, optical microscopy (NSOM).	01-22-2009
