20130314984 | Processors and Systems Using Phase-Change Memory with and without Bitline-sharing - Methods and systems for phase change memory having high RESET currents. In some sample embodiments, PCM elements share access devices in parallel between bit lines, permitting higher RESET currents to be shared between several access devices without overdriving. Lower individual current densities permit smaller access devices and smaller memories having greater reliability and longer retention. In some sample embodiments, hybrid arrays connect bit lines on only a few word lines, using the shared bits e.g. only for critical information. In some sample embodiments, several PCM elements share a single larger access device which can pass higher currents while still reducing the total memory size. | 11-28-2013 |

20130181136 | APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR INSPECTING STRUCTURES - This disclosure describes an apparatus and a system for inspection of deepwater assets, e.g., pipes and pipelines that traverse the ocean floor. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a housing that retains a compensation fluid therein to form a fluidic environment. A digital detector resides in the fluidic environment. The digital detector can generate digital images in response to radiation that penetrate though the deepwater asset and impinges on components of the digital detector. In one embodiment, the digital detector utilizes one or more seal members to secure the components together. The seal members may be permeable and/or impermeable to the compensation fluid thereby preventing and/or permitting migration of the compensation fluid between certain components of the digital detector. | 07-18-2013 |

20100218519 | FRESH FOOD ICE MAKER CONTROL - A refrigeration system is provided with an ice maker chamber within a fresh food compartment. The refrigeration system includes a refrigeration path and an ice maker path. The ice maker path includes an electronic expansion valve for controlling the refrigerant entering an ice maker evaporator and an evaporator pressure regulator. Controlling the refrigeration system includes the steps of sensing a first refrigerant temperature at an exit of the ice maker evaporator and controlling a first control of the electronic expansion valve until the temperature reaches a temperature target. The method of controlling can further include comparing a slope of the temperature to at least one of a minimum, a target, or a maximum setting to adjust the control. Subsequently, a second control for the electronic expansion valve can be repeatedly adjusted by evaluating the first refrigerant temperature and the slope. | 09-02-2010 |

20110271734 | Wedge Driven Pipe Bending Machine - A pipe bending machine has a stiff-back which is driven by a pivoting wedge. A linkage applies force from the actuator to the wedge in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the stiff-back. The stiff-back pivots on a first fulcrum and the wedge slides on a bed which pivots on a second fulcrum. The actuator drives the wedge between the stiff-back and the bed to rotate the stiff-back at the first fulcrum and bend the pipe seated in the stiff-back against the pipe bending face of a die. The conversion of the longitudinal force applied to the wedge into a transverse force applied to the stiff-back provides a significant mechanical advantage which varies directionally as the stiff-back rotates about its fulcrum to maintain a constant force on the stiff-back. | 11-10-2011 |

20150039118 | EVENT PROCESSING BASED SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURING YIELD IMPROVEMENT - An event processing system identifies a process event associated with an identified defect in a manufacturing process. The event processing system selects a plurality of data elements from a manufacturing data source based on the process event. The manufacturing data source is associated with the manufacturing process during execution of the manufacturing process. During execution of the manufacturing process, the event processing system applies an event rule to the plurality of data elements to determine whether the event rule is satisfied. During execution of the manufacturing process, the event processing system performs a predefined action upon determining that the event rule is satisfied and selects additional data elements from the manufacturing data source upon determining that the event rule is not satisfied. | 02-05-2015 |

20140132429 | Method for data compression and inference - Lossless and lossy codes are combined for data compression. In one embodiment, the most significant bits of each value are losslessly coded along with a lossy version of the original data. Upon decompression, the lossless reduced-precision values establish absolute bounds for the lossy code. Another embodiment losslessly codes the leading bits while trailing bits undergo lossy coding. Upon decompression, the two codes are summed. The method preserves edges and other sharp transitions for superior lossy compression. Additionally, the method enables description-length inference using noisy data. | 05-15-2014 |
