20150279780 | INTERCONNECT STRUCTURE HAVING LARGE SELF-ALIGNED VIAS - A wavy line interconnect structure that accommodates small metal lines and enlarged diameter vias is disclosed. The enlarged diameter vias can be formed using a self-aligned dual damascene process without the need for a separate via lithography mask. The enlarged diameter vias make direct contact with at least three sides of the underlying metal lines, and can be aligned asymmetrically with respect to the metal line to increase the packing density of the metal pattern. The resulting vias have an aspect ratio that is relatively easy to fill, while the larger via footprint provides low via resistance. An interconnect structure having enlarged diameter vias can also feature air gaps to reduce the chance of dielectric breakdown. By allowing the via footprint to exceed the minimum size of the metal line width, a path is cleared for further process generations to continue shrinking metal lines to dimensions below 10 nm. | 10-01-2015 |

20120215672 | Apparatus and Method for Commodity Trading with Automatic Odd Lot Hedging - Apparatus and method for trading commodities with automatic hedging for odd lot offers. The apparatus automatically accepts odd lot offers on behalf of buyers and aggregates them with other odd lot offers of the same commodity symbol until there are enough bushels to reach a predetermined threshold, or “tipping point,” which causes the system to automatically calculate the optimum number of full lot futures contracts to sell at the market price in order to offset risk associated with accepting the odd lot offers, to automatically secure the optimum number of full lot futures contracts. The system reduces or eliminates situations where no transactions are executed due to the market's failure to reach a certain price, and reduces the buyers' exposure to slippage on accumulated odd lots. | 08-23-2012 |

20150046301 | COMMUNITY-BASED USAGE MONITORING - The present application describes methods, systems, and apparatuses for community-based usage monitoring. An overall service usage, such as an average daily usage for a plurality of subscribers is determined. A service usage for a particular subscriber of the plurality of subscribers is also determined, such as an average daily usage. A metric is determined that indicates a comparison of the service usage to the overall service usage. The metric may be a percentile, standard deviation, or other comparison of the subscriber's usage relative to the overall usage. An indication of the metric is transmitted to a device associated with the first subscriber. Where the subscriber's relative usage exceeds a threshold, an alert is generated flagging the subscriber for action to reduce usage. | 02-12-2015 |
