| 20100287517 | Statistical Static Timing Analysis in Non-Linear Regions - A method is described for simulating the f-sigma timing path delay of an integrated circuit design when local transistor variations determine the stochastic delay. This is achieved by determining an estimated delay time for a first timing path using non-linear operating point analysis of local variations (NLOPALV). An operating point is calculated for each cell that is included in a timing path in the integrated circuit design. The f-sigma operating point of a cell-arc is a point on the cell-arc delay function (CADF). An f-sigma delay value is determined for each cell using the selected operating point on the CADF of the cell. The determined delay values of the plurality of cells in the timing path may then be combined to predict the estimated delay for the entire timing path. The method may be extended to deal with slew rate, predict hold time statistics, prune paths, and deal with convergent paths. | 11-11-2010 |

| 20090149689 | SYSTEM FOR AND METHOD OF FILLING A CONTAINER WITH HAZARDOUS WASTE - A system for filling a container with hazardous waste includes a primary confinement chamber that houses a lid handling mechanism and a filling head. The lid handling mechanism may be used to remove and/or recouple the lid to the container as part of the process of filling the container in such a way to ensure the exterior of the container is not contaminated by the hazardous waste. The filling head may be configured to add the hazardous waste to the container, mix the contents of the container, and/or vent air from the container. The system may include additional mechanisms in the primary confinement chamber to add dry cementitious material to the container, add premixed wet cementitious materials to the container, add cementitious material to seal off the top of the lid, and/or measure the level and test whether the contents of the container meet quality assurance requirements. The hazardous waste may include radioactive hazardous waste. In particular, the radioactive waste may be transuranic waste that emits alpha particles. | 06-11-2009 |

| 20080320451 | Procedure Summaries for Pointer Analysis - Pointer analysis is used for different applications, e.g., compilers, debugging tools and programs understanding tools, each having different requirements. A framework for pointer analysis is provided that defines a multidimensional space, for example a three-dimensional space, containing an order sensitivity dimension, a predicate sensitivity dimension and a value persistence dimension. A point in the three-dimensional space is identified. This point yields values for order sensitivity, predicate sensitivity and value persistence. Pointer analysis is then conducted on a computer program in accordance with the identified values for order sensitivity, predicate sensitivity and value persistence. | 12-25-2008 |
