Abstract: A key or licence management system for the secure online distribution of digitized audio-visual works ("media") using encryption techniques. Encrypted media is stored on a media server while the encryption keys are stored on a media key server. Users acquire rights from online retailers to obtain from the media key server keys corresponding to the media they wish to play. The key server encrypts keys before releasing them, preferably with the user's public key using a public key encryption algorithm. Keys are stored in volatile memory at the user's client device and thus the user is in receipt of the key just in time to play the media.

Abstract: A means for fabrication of solenoidal inductors integrated in a semiconductor chip is provided. The solenoidal coil is partially embedded in a deep well etched into the chip substrate. The non-embedded part of the coil is fabricated as part of the BEOL metallization layers. This allows for a large cross-sectional area of the solenoid turns, thus reducing the turn-to-turn capacitive coupling. Because the solenoidal coils of this invention have a large diameter cross-section, the coil can be made with a large inductance value and yet occupy a small area of the chip. The fabrication process includes etching of a deep cavity in the substrate after all the FEOL steps are completed; lining said cavity with a dielectric followed by fabrication of the part of the coil that will be embedded by deposition of a conductive material metal through a mask; deposition of dielectric and planarization of same by CMP. After planarization the fabrication of the remaining part of the solenoidal coil is fabricated as part of the metallization in the BEOL (i.e. as line/vias of the BEOL). To further increase the cross section of the solenoidal coil part of it may be built by electrodeposition through a mask on top of the BEOL layers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a carrier head of a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus for planarizing a semiconductor wafer. An adjustment chamber is provided in a space section formed between a membrane lower holder and a membrane upper holder of a wafer support assembly. Pressure applied to the adjustment chamber is transferred to a rear surface of a membrane during a polishing process through a perforated hole formed at a center of the membrane lower holder. A center portion of the membrane is connected to a vacuum pipe by passing through a hole of the membrane lower holder and the adjustment chamber. Vacuum pressure is directly applied to a wafer so that the wafer is easily attached to the carrier head at lower pressure. Pressure is evenly distributed over the whole area of the wafer so that the wafer is evenly polished.

Abstract: An architecture for a communications node and a method of implementing control functions in a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) telecommunications network. The node performs a plurality of call-control functions in a single physical node. A plurality of application-level logic blocks corresponding to the plurality of call-control functions are interfaced with a common engine module which is implemented on top of a common operating system and physical platform. The engine module includes SIP behavior functions and SIP stack functions, selected ones of which are operable to perform different call-control functions when interfaced with different application-level logic blocks. Mapping tables within the engine module identify groups of functions that, together with selected logic blocks, perform defined call-control functions. The open architecture allows additional functional logic blocks to be interfaced with the engine module to implement additional call-control functions.
