Abstract: A stent (220) made of a shape memory alloy, such as nitinol, comprises a coiled wire having at least one section wound in one sense and at least one section wound in the opposite sense. The stent (220) is deployed by being tightly wound on a catheter (24) and immobilized thereon at its respective end points (42) as well as at at least one intermediate point, such as points (140) where the winding changes direction. The immobilization may be by means of threads (28) engaged by wires (132, 133) through bores (232, 233) in the catheter interior. These threads (28) can be selectively released by successive removal of the wires (132, 133) so that the intermediate points (142) of the stent, for example, may be released before the end points (42) thereof. The threads (28) can alternatively be released by melting upon heating, or by breaking e.g. by using electrically conducive wires and applying current thereto. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vacuum chamber used for processing articles, such as integrated circuit wafers, display panels, and the like, has a small load lock chamber formed at an opening in a wall of the chamber by a moveable article supporting surface within the chamber and a cover outside of the chamber. The supporting surface and cover are sealed to the chamber wall when urged against it. Articles placed into the load lock chamber, when the cover is opened, are moved into the vacuum chamber for processing by moving the supporting surface away from the wall after the cover has been closed and a vacuum established in the load lock chamber. Articles are removed from the vacuum chamber in a reverse manner. Various mechanisms are described for moving the articles, including a particular robotic device that simultaneously swaps the positions of two articles between the supporting surface and a processing location within the vacuum chamber by first pulling the articles together and then rotating them in a half-circle. Integrated circuit wafers are preferably carried on a domed surface formed of wedge shaped pieces fit together on a frame, where the wedge shaped pieces and their wafers are individually removable from the frame for transfer to another frame at a different location.

Abstract: A method and system for refreshing a dynamic random access memory ("DRAM") (40) includes a pair of memory arrays for each of a plurality of banks. The DRAM (40) includes the usual addressing and data path circuitry, as well as a refresh controller (70) that refreshes the arrays in a manner that hides refreshes sufficiently that the DRAM (40) can be used in place of an SRAM as a cache memory (236). Since only one of the arrays in each bank is refreshed at a time, the refresh controller (70) is able to allow data to be written to the array that is not being refreshed. The refresh controller (70) then causes the write data to be temporarily stored so that it can be written to the array of the refresh of the array has been completed. If neither array is being refreshed, the data are written to both arrays. Data are read from the arrays by first checking to determine if any of the arrays is being refreshed. If so, data are read from the array that is not being refreshed.

Abstract: The unit has a programmable computer unit (EALU) for basic mathematical and logical functions. The functions and interconnections are programmed in registers, enabling processing of a number of data types without reprogramming. A state machine (SM-UNIT) controls the computer unit. Registers partially in the form of shift registers exist for each operand and the result. Result register data are fed back to an input via a multiplexer. A bus unit (BM-UNIT) enables data to be accessed from or results to be passed to a bus system with automatic synchronization of several receivers to which data are sent. Bus access is decoupled from data processing, esp. configuration and reconfiguration do not affect the data transmitter or receiver. Bus transfers are automatically controlled by a state machine (SYNC-UNIT) using handshake lines. Return messages allow the status of processing and reconfiguration to be monitored.

Abstract: Personal care or cosmetic oil in water emulsions include an oil emulsifier and a combination of a Xanthan polysaccharide and a polyglucomannan polysaccharide to provide enhanced stability even at low emulsifier stabilizer levels. The emulsifier stabilizer system provides stable emulsions without dominating system rheology, particularly viscosity. Thus, the emulsions can have a low viscosity suitable for formulation as milks or thin lotions, or can be thickened, desirably by thickening agents other than the Xanthans and/or polyglucomannan, to provide emulsion creams or gels. This enables the system to be used very flexibly in end use applications. The emulsifier is desirably a non-ionic emulsifier and particularly is a combination of a low HLB and a high HLB emulsifier and can be formulated with conventional alcohol ethoxylate surfactants or from non-EO surfactants e.g. sucrose ester high HLB surfactants and citrate or sorbitan ester low HLB surfactants.

Abstract: Disclosed is a data collection and retrieval system that puts data produced by real-time and non-real-time data sources into parallel "streams" or data files. Real-time data points are stored with time stamps in data files and non-real-time data points with time stamps are stored in other data files. Real-time data points are stamped with the times at which their data were collected. Non-real-time data points are stored in time-sequential order, the sequence time being the time of relevance rather than the time of collection. By referencing the streams that contain data points relevant to a given period, header files facilitate coordinated retrieval of data from multiple parallel streams. The time stamps allow the data points to be merged together into one coordinated, time-sequential data stream for analysis. The parallel stream data collection and retrieval technique allows operators to add or delete data sources without shutting down the process being monitored.
