20100024718Procedure for in-situ determination of thermal gradients at the crystal growth front - A method and apparatus for growing a semiconductor crystal include pulling the semiconductor crystal from melt at a pull speed and modulating the pull speed by combining a periodic pull speed with an average speed. The modulation of the pull speed allows in-situ determination of characteristic temperature gradients in the melt and in the crystal during crystal formation. The temperature gradients may be used to control relevant process parameters that affect morphological stability or intrinsic material properties in the finished crystal such as for instance the target pull speed of the crystal or the melt gap, which determines the thermal gradient in the crystal during growth.02-04-2010
20110141460Silicon Filter for Photoluminescence Metrology - A method and apparatus identifies defects in a sample using photoluminescence with a silicon filter to filter out the primary excitation light from the return light received by the detector. The silicon filter passes the light emitted by the sample in response to the excitation light, while absorbing the lower wavelength excitation light that is reflected by or transmitted through the sample. The silicon filter has introduced impurities that reduce the recombination lifetime which reduces or eliminate photoluminescence in the silicon filter in response to the excitation light, thereby improving the signal to noise ratio of the signal received by the detector.06-16-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090255897Device and Method for Irreversibly Selecting Indicia - The invention disclosed is a cap or other device and method of using same, the device comprising at least a first and second member, the cap having a first configuration in which the first and second members are rotatably connected to each other, and a second configuration in which the first and second members are fixed to each other. The second configuration is substantially irreversible, such that the device cannot be reverted to the first configuration without the aid of tools, breaking the device, or causing the device to lose functionality.10-15-2009

20110184905METHOD OF STORING AND ANALYSING DATA PRODUCED FROM INTERACTIONS BETWEEN EXTERNAL AGENTS AND A SYSTEM - The present invention relates to a method of storing data records produced from monitoring interactions between external agents and a system. The method comprises defining specific interactions that can occur between the external agents and the system as potential events of interest. A chain of interactions occurring during respective interaction sessions between a respective external agent and the system are monitored and potential events of interest occurring in the said chain are determined. Data records from the monitored chain of interactions are produced, the respective data record including data identifying determined potential events of interest and data associated therewith. A profile identity, representative of the external agent, is assigned to each data record produced during a said interaction session. Data records of individual potential events of interest are stored in a way that is ordered according to the type of potential event of interest and data records of potential events of interest occurring during an interaction session are stored in a way that is ordered according to assigned profile identity.07-28-2011

20100185486DETERMINING DEMAND ASSOCIATED WITH ORIGIN-DESTINATION PAIRS FOR BUS RIDERSHIP FORECASTING - A method for forecasting demand for transportation services. The method includes running a count-to-demand translation module with a processor on a computer system and, with the computer system, receiving a count data for passengers getting on and off a vehicle at each stop along a route. The method includes operating the translation module to determine a demand for pairs of the stops such as origin-destination pairs on the route based on the counts at each stop. The set of count data includes a geographical location associated with each stop as well as the time. The demand found by the translation module is attributed to predefined time periods. In the method, the demand of at least some of the OD pairs of the stops is proportional to the offcounts at the destination one of the stops in the pairs relative to the offcounts in the other destination stops.07-22-2010
20100299177DYNAMIC BUS DISPATCHING AND LABOR ASSIGNMENT SYSTEM - A method of dynamic bus dispatching and labor assignments based on real time vehicle and passenger data. The method includes running a transportation services module on a computer of a dispatch command center. The method includes receiving, at the computer system, current location information for a plurality of buses. The transportation services module determines a route completion time period for the vehicles and then generates a dispatch schedule for each of the vehicles based on the determined route completions. The dispatch schedules are transmitted to the buses and displayed on a monitor to the bus driver, thereby allowing real time or dynamic updating of dispatching based on collected location information. The method also includes determining and reporting a set of labor assignments for drivers of the buses based on the current location information, the route completion time periods, and break and shift information associated with each of the drivers.11-25-2010
