Patent EP-0926739-A1 (EP)
Inventor: OKUNO YASUTOSHI
IPC: H01L29/808
Filed: 1998-12-11
Abstract: A structure for, and method of forming, a metal-insulator-semiconductor field-effect
transistor in an integrated circuit. The method comprises forming a germanium
layer 52 on a semiconductor substrate (e.g. silicon 20), depositing a large-permittivity
gate dielectric (e.g. tantalum pentoxide 56) on the germanium layer, and forming a gate
electrode (e.g., titanium nitride 60) on the gate dielectric. The method may comprise
forming source and drain regions 64 in the substrate on either side of the gate
dielectric. The germanium layer, which is preferably epitaxially grown, generally
prevents formation of a low dielectric constant layer between the gate dielectric and the
semiconductor substrate. The disclosed structure comprises a germanium layer 52
disposed on a semiconductor substrate (e.g. silicon 20), a large-permittivity gate
dielectric (e.g. tantalum pentoxide 56) disposed on the germanium layer, and a gate
electrode (e.g., titanium nitride 60) disposed on the gate dielectric. The structure may
comprise source and drain regions 64 disposed in the substrate on either side of the
gate dielectric. A Ge x Si 1-x  buffer layer may be formed between the semiconductor
substrate and the germanium layer, with x transitioning from about 0 near the substrate
to about 1 near the germanium layer. The large-permittivity gate dielectric may be
either a moderate-dielectric constant oxide or a high-dielectric constant oxide.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de commutation par paquets (16, 20) qui émule l'algorithme de localisation d'un système à commutation de circuits (14, 18). Le système de commutation par paquets ((16, 20) dans lequel la résélection de cellule (1) est essentiellement effectuée par les stations mobiles (20), a des capacités avancées de localisation et de résélection flexible de cellule, grâce auxquelles le trafic à commutation par paquets peut se comporter (en termes de commande) virtuellement de la même manière que le trafic à commutation par paquets en ce qui concerne la résélection de cellule et la localisation. En d'autres termes, les terminaux mobiles à commutation par paquets (20) sont capables d'émuler les fonctions de localisation du système à commutation de circuits, ce qui réduit l'interférence de signaux (40) entre deux systèmes (14, 16, 18, 20). Dans une plus large mesure, l'invention permet à un type de système de communication mobile (16, 20) utilisant un algorithme de commande de réseau radio moins avancé, d'émuler l'algorithme de commande du réseau radio avancé d'un second type de système de communication mobile (14, 18), ce qui permet au trafic des deux systèmes d'adopter un comportement virtuellement identique dans le même environnement de réseau radio (10).

Title: Verrouillage de fichier unifie a protocoles multiples
Inventor: BORR ANDREA
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1998-11-30
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant l'interopérabilité satisfaisante de protocoles multiples de serveur ou de fonction de verrouillage de fichiers, sur la base d'une gestion de verrouillage uniforme à protocoles multiples. Avant d'autoriser pour un dispositif client l'accès à des données ou le verrouillage de fichiers, un serveur de fichiers détermine si l'opération serait incompatible avec des verrouillages existants, indépendamment du dispositif client d'origine ou du protocole d'origine pour les verrouillages existants en question. Un premier protocole applique des moyens obligatoires d'ouverture et de fermeture de fichiers en combinaison avec une technique opportuniste de verrouillage des fichiers, tandis qu'un second protocole fonctionne sans disposer de la sémantique propre à l'ouverture des fichiers, assurant seulement un verrouillage consultatif au niveau des octets et des fichiers. Le verrouillage des fichiers est une protection contre l'altération des données par les dispositifs clients de serveur de fichier de réseau (NFS). A l'ouverture d'un fichier, un dispositif client de système de fichier Internet commun (CIFS) peut obtenir un verrouillage de type opportuniste. Lorsqu'un dispositif client envoie une demande de protocole non CIFS pour le fichier à verrouillage de ce type, le serveur de fichiers envoie lui-même au dispositif du système CIFS un message de déverrouillage correspondant à ce type opportuniste, ce qui permet au dispositif du système CIFS de vider toutes opérations d'écriture antémémoire et éventuellement de fermer le ou les fichiers considérés. Le fait d'autoriser le serveur NFS et le gestionnaire de verrouillage de réseau (NLM)à envoyer les demandes de rupture du verrouillage opportuniste garantit le maintien de la disponibilité des fichiers de données aux dispositifs clients du serveur NFS et protège simultanément l'intégrité des mêmes fichiers. Un dispositif client du système CIFS peut obtenir un verrouillage de surveillance de modification pour un répertoire dans le système de fichiers, de manière à être informé par le serveur de fichiers de toute modification relative à ce répertoire. Le serveur de fichiers note les modifications apportées au répertoire par les dispositifs clients de type CIFS et non CIFS, et il communique aux dispositifs clients du système CIFS les verrouillages de surveillance de modification correspondants.

Filed: 1999-02-23
Abstract: A built-in self-test (BIST) circuit and a method for testing a memory device,
especially applicable in a DRAM requiring a complex test algorithm. Two finite
machines are used instead of a single finite state machine used in the conventional
circuit. Therefore, the pipeline technique can be applied to divide the test pattern
generation process into stages, leading to a higher-speed design. In addition, a
technique of protocol based relaxation is also presented. By imposing a certain
protocol on the two communicating finite machines, the timing criticality is further
relaxed. Synthesis results show that the proposed BIST circuit can operate at the speed
of as high as 450MHz using 0.25µm CMOS technology.
