Title: Magnetoresistive tunnelling junction memory with reference layer sandwiched between two antiferromagnetically coupled ferromagnetic free layers
Inventor: KLOSTERMANN ULRICH
IPC: G11C11/15
Filed: 2006-01-20
Abstract: Magnetoresistive tunnelling junction memory element consists of a first magnetic system R sandwiched between a ferromagnetic tunnelling junction free layer FL1 and at least one other ferromagnetic free layer FL2. The two or more ferromagnetic free layers are antiferromagnetically coupled. The first magnetic system R consists of a ferromagnetic tunnelling junction reference layer having a fixed magnetic moment and is separated from the ferromagnetic tunnelling junction free layer by a tunnelling barrier B1. The tunnelling barrier B1, the tunnelling junction free layer FL1 and the tunnelling junction reference layer form a magnetoresistive tunnelling junction. The first magnetic system R may be formed from a first pinned layer (Ra, fig 3B) antiferromagnetically coupled to a second pinned layer (Rb, fig 3B). Underlayers UL1 and UL2 may be provided to act as diffusion barriers and seed layers for the stack growth. A cap layer CL1 may also be provided. The large distance r between the ferromagnetic free layers FL1 and FL2 means that a conventional spacer layer is rendered superfluous and the memory element can be scaled down without adverse effects on dipole coupling of the free layers.

Title: Animal feed delivery system
Inventor: WRIGHT PAUL EDWARD
IPC: A01K5/01
Filed: 2006-02-03
Abstract: An animal feed delivery system comprising at least one feed trough 1a,1b and an optional feed stock/ delivery system 5.

Title: Archiving backup data using secondary pools
Inventor: GANONG RAYMOND E
IPC: G06F11/14
Filed: 2007-11-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for storing generational or incremental backup data, e.g. forming safesets, obtained using a fixed delta position reduction method. Backup data is initially stored in a primary or 'active' pool that comprises a 'seed' and one or more generations of data, e.g. with each generation including one or more data blocks that have changed with reference to a previous backup that included the seed. Over time, the size of the primary pool may get large. The size of the primary pool may be reduced by transferring data from the primary pool to one or more secondary pools. Generation of a secondary pool and/or data transfer may occur according to a policy, e.g. when a predetermined date is met, a predetermined time has passed since generation of the primary pool, or when a maximum number of generations is stored. The secondary pool may be stored separately thereby archiving older data to another, cheaper storage medium.
