| 20090100128 | ACCELERATING PEER-TO-PEER CONTENT DISTRIBUTION - The acceleration of peer-to-peer downloads of content files using auxiliary resources in combination with peer-to-peer content distribution. A further feature relates to the use of enhanced message scheme for communications between the tracker and peers. One embodiment is a swarm having at least one seed capable of at least initially storing the content files with at least one tracker maintaining a list of peers wherein the tracker uses at least one peer selection algorithm to generate a selective peer-list and provides a selective peer-list to the peers. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090182815 | ACCELERATING PEER-TO-PEER CONTENT DISTRIBUTION - The acceleration of peer-to-peer downloads of content files wherein a tracker performs a condition based peer selection that is dynamically adjustable. A further feature relates to the use of enhanced message scheme for communications. One embodiment is a system in a swarm having at least one origin seed capable of at least initially storing the content files with at least one tracker maintaining a list of peers wherein the tracker uses at least one dynamically adjusting peer selection algorithm to generate a condition based peer-list and provides the condition based peer-list to a requesting peer. | 07-16-2009 |

| 20100033170 | ROTARY POSITION ENCODER - A rotary position encoder is described that includes a hub configured to mount on an end of a rotatable shaft of a machine tool and rotate concurrently with the rotatable shaft. The hub includes a cup formed in a first end to receive the rotatable shaft, the cup having equally spaced axial grooves formed on an inner surface. A collar clamps the hub to the rotatable shaft by collapsing the cup around the rotatable shaft. The rotary position encoder further includes a sensor configured to detect a rotational position of the hub and a housing, wherein the sensor is mounted to the housing in a position opposite a second end of the hub. The hub is rotatably coupled to the housing via a bearing and a bracket is attached to the housing for mounting the rotary position encoder to the machine tool and preloading the bearing. | 02-11-2010 |

| 20080205129 | NON-VOLATILE MAGNETIC MEMORY DEVICE - A non-volatile magnetic memory cell having a magnetic element with multiple segments which are not co-linear. Each of the segments is magnetized with a remnant magnetic field using a single write line. The segments can be magnetized in a first direction or a second direction, corresponding to first and second orientations of the memory cell. A sensor is provided to determine the direction in which the segments are magnetized and thereby the orientation of the cell. The segments are oriented such that the magnetic flux fields created by their respective remnant magnetic fields have a cumulative effect at a sensing region of the sensor. The cumulative effect allows a less sensitive sensor to be used than in known device. In various embodiments, the magnetic element can have a number of linear segments or a curved profile. In another embodiment, multiple magnetic elements are magnetized by a single write line. The multiple magnetic elements are arranged such that remnant magnetic field stored in them can be cumulatively sensed. In another embodiment, the magnetic element is arranged to be magnetized in a single general direction, but is shaped such that magnetic flux lines emanate from it in different directions. The different directions are arranged to direct flux lines through the sensing region of a sensor, which measures their cumulative effect. | 08-28-2008 |

| 20090298231 | Cmos process for fabrication of ultra small or non standard size or shape semiconductor die - A method for the singulation of integrated circuit die, the method including: etching a semiconductor layer disposed on a silicon oxide dielectric layer, thereby forming a trench defining a boundary of the die; depositing a silicon nitride layer in the trench; coating the semiconductor layer with an oxide layer such that the trench is filled; removing part of the oxide layer from the semiconductor layer such that the oxide layer only remains in the trench; mounting the semiconductor layer to a carrier; removing the silicon oxide dialectic layer, the nitride layer, and the oxide layer; and releasing the die from the carrier. The method is suitable for irregularly shaped or extremely small die and is compatible with traditional CMOS processes. | 12-03-2009 |
