| 20080209320 | COMPUTER-BASED EVALUATION TOOL FOR SELECTING PERSONALIZED CONTENT FOR USERS - The invention relates to a method and system for selecting personalized content for a user, the method being performed by an evaluation tool instantiated on a computing device and comprising the evaluation tool. The evaluation tool creates a content selection rule for the user for finding and filtering content items, such as advertising content. The tool generates a content selection algorithm from the content selection rule for determining which content items to present to the user and presents the content item to the user based on the content selection algorithm and allows the user to interact with the presented content item. The tool also monitors the user's interaction with the presented content item for determining a modification of the content selection algorithm based on the user's interaction and presents the content item to the user based on the modified selection algorithm. The tool also enables the user to view and modify the selection rule and the content selection algorithm. | 08-28-2008 |

| 20110179542 | WRIST GUARD - A band is described for providing support and/or protection to the wearer. In one embodiment, the band is a wrist band having pockets for several longitudinal reinforcement elements. Thus, for example, a wrist band may be formed from an elastic material had be stitched to form pockets. In one embodiment, the pockets are closed, and the band is provided with a given amount of protection or support. In yet another embodiment, one or more pockets have an opening, which allows a user to adjust the amount of protection and/or support in each pocket. | 07-28-2011 |

| 20100239531 | STABLE LIQUID INTERFERON FORMULATIONS - Liquid interferon compositions having a pH between 4.0 and 7.2 are described. The compositions comprise interferon-beta and a stabilizing agent at between about 0.3% and 5% by weight which is an amino acid selected from the group consisting of acidic amino acids, arginine and glycine. If needed, salt is added to provide sufficient ionic strength. The liquid composition has not been previously lyophilized or previously cavitated. The liquid is preferably contained within a vessel having at least one surface in contract with the liquid that is coated with a material inert to adsorption of interferon-beta. A kit for parenteral administration of a liquid interferon formulation and a method for stabilizing liquid interferon compositions are also described. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090033694 | PRINTER CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ARTIFACT FREE AND BORDERLESS PRINTING - A system and a method for improving the quality of prints using a print mask for a printer having at least one printhead with a plurality of dot forming elements arranged in complementary dot forming element groups by section to prevent artifacts by compensating for bad dot forming elements on a print head. The method including the steps of identifying each bad dot forming element, identifying and setting up a threshold for each complementary dot forming element group corresponding to one or more bad dot forming elements, and creating a compensation print mask having one or more intermediate print sections by reassigning printing duty cycle from the bad dot forming elements to their respective complementary dot forming elements before printing using the compensation print mask. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20100079510 | INKJET PRINTING METHOD - A method of using an inkjet printer to print an input digital image containing at least one color channel having a plurality of rows and columns of pixels sampled at a first resolution, each pixel having a code value, includes partitioning the input digital image into a set of spatially non-overlapping blocks; computing an average code value for each block responsive to the pixels in the input digital image that correspond to the block; computing an image quality score for each block responsive to the average code value for that block; determining a print mode in response to the image quality scores for the set of blocks; and printing the image on the inkjet printer using the print mode. | 04-01-2010 |

| 20080204678 | Temperature effects on overlay accuracy - A method for reducing overlay error in a photolithographic process, by providing a substrate having a permanent layer with a first pattern disposed therein, coating the substrate with photoresist, exposing the photoresist to a second pattern, while measuring temperatures at a plurality of different first positions across the substrate, developing the second pattern in the photoresist, measuring overlay errors between the first and second patterns at a plurality of different second positions across the substrate, correlating the overlay errors with temperatures by position on the substrate, determining any relationship indicated between the correlated overlay errors and temperatures, and adjusting at least one temperature controlling aspect of the photolithographic process in response to any relationship determined. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090056441 | PROCESS CONDITION MEASURING DEVICE - An instrument for measuring a parameter comprises a substrate, a plurality of sensors carried by and distributed across a surface of the substrate that individually measure the parameter at different positions, an electronic processing component carried by the substrate surface, electrical conductors extending across the surface connected to the sensors and the electronic processing component, and a cover disposed over the sensors, electronic processing component and conductors. The cover and substrate have similar material properties to a production substrate processed by a substrate processing cell. The instrument has approximately the same thickness and/or flatness as the production substrate. The instrument may be subjected a substrate process and one or more parameters may be measured with the instrument during the process. The behavior of a production wafer in the substrate process may be characterized based on measurements of the parameters made with the one or more sensors. | 03-05-2009 |
