20120007750SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC DISTRESS AT SEA - The embodiments herein provide a system and a method for automatic distress alerting at sea. The method comprises detecting a distress situation by the sensors, sending a distress signal to the processor device, initiating an alarm for a pre-defined time, confirming the detected distress situation by a responsible officer, sending a distress alert package generated by the processor device through a main transmitter device to several satellites and to the terrestrial stations, informing nearest maritime search and rescue coordination centers after receiving the distress alert package and sending one or more rescue teams to a location based on a data provided in the distress alert package. If the alarm is detected to be false by the responsible officer then the distress alert is removed and alarm is activated if the responsible officer neither confirms nor denies the distress situation.01-12-2012

20080284034Method of reducing the surface roughness of spin coated polymer films - According to one aspect of the invention, a method of constructing a memory array is provided. An insulating layer is formed on a semiconductor wafer. A first metal stack is then formed on the insulating layer and etched to form first metal lines. A polymeric layer is formed over the first metal lines and the insulating layer. A puddle of smoothing solvent is then allowed to stand on the wafer. The smoothing solvent is then removed. After the smoothing solvent is removed, the polymeric layer has a reduced surface roughness. A second metal stack is then formed on the polymeric layer and etched to form second metal lines.11-20-2008
20100195267POLYMER MEMORY AND METHOD OF ITS FABRICATION - An embodiment mitigates one or more of the limiting factors of fabricating polymer ferroelectric memory devices. For example, an embodiment reduces the degradation of the ferroelectric polymer due to the polymer's reaction with, and migration or diffusion of, adjacent metal electrode material. Further, the ferroelectric polymer is exposed to fewer potentially high temperature or high energy processes that may damage the polymer. An embodiment further incorporates an immobilized catalyst to improve the adhesion between adjacent layers, and particularly between the electrolessly plated electrodes and the ferroelectric polymer.08-05-2010

20110082696SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SPEECH-ENABLED ACCESS TO MEDIA CONTENT - Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for generating a speech recognition model for a media content retrieval system. The method causes a computing device to retrieve information describing media available in a media content retrieval system, construct a graph that models how the media are interconnected based on the retrieved information, rank the information describing the media based on the graph, and generate a speech recognition model based on the ranked information. The information can be a list of actors, directors, composers, titles, and/or locations. The graph that models how the media are interconnected can further model pieces of common information between two or more media. The method can further cause the computing device to weight the graph based on the retrieved information. The graph can further model relative popularity information in the list. The method can rank information based on a PageRank algorithm.04-07-2011
