Title: Optoelectric multichip module
Inventor: ROBERTSSON MATS
IPC: G02B6/122
Filed: 1999-03-22
Granted: 2001-04-21
Abstract: A thin-film multilayer structure on top of a substrate (19) has three polymer layers (31, 35, 39) having adapted refractive indices in which optical waveguides (9) are formed. Signal conducting metal layers (33, 37, 41) are located at these three thin-film layers. The metal is etched away at the waveguide cores so that ordinary optical waveguides of channel-type are obtained having a refractive index difference between the core and the cladding material. Holes are etched in the polymer layers in order to form electrical vias. Mirrors (55) can be formed by laser ablating to provide connection of an optical waveguide to some component (7) and to provide optical vias, in the case where another similar set of three polymer layers are applied on top of the layers shown. Hence, electrical and optical interconnections can be integrated in the multilayer structure using a minimum number of polymer layers and the optical waveguides can be constructed to have a low loss.

Title: Method and apparatus for parallel profile matching in a large scale webcasting system
Inventor: EICHSTAEDT MATTHIAS
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1999-04-26
Granted: 2001-06-16
Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficiently matching a large collection of user profiles against a large volume of data in a webcasting system. The invention generally includes in one embodiment four steps to parallelize the profiles. First, an initial profile set is partitioned into several subsets also referred to as sub-partitions using various heuristic methods. Second, each sub-partition is mapped onto one or more independent processing units. Each processing unit is not required to have equal processing performance. However, for best performance results, subset data should be mapped in one embodiment where the subset with a highest cost is mapped to a fastest processor, and the next highest cost subset mapped to the next fastest processor. Where appropriate, the invention evaluates the relative subset processing speed of each processor and adjusts future subset mapping based upon these evaluations. For each information item I that needs to be matched with a profile predicate, a third and a fourth step are executed. The third step broadcasts I to all processing units, and a fourth step performs a sequential profile match on I.

Title: Liquid crystal display device employing a guard plane between a layer for measuring touch position and common electrode layer
Inventor: COLGAN EVAN GEORGE
IPC: G06F3/033
Filed: 1999-07-28
Granted: 2001-06-07
Abstract: The present invention provides for touch input functionality in a liquid crystal display having a plurality of cells each comprising a first substrate having a common electrode integrated thereon, a second substrate having a pixel electrode integrated thereon, and liquid crystal material disposed between the common electrode and pixel electrode. A first conductive layer (signal layer) and second conductive layer (guard plane layer) are integrated onto the first substrate and disposed between the first substrate and the common electrode. Contact position of a touch input device with the first substrate is determined by applying a first signal to the signal layer. A second signal is applied to the guard plane layer to thereby lower capacitive coupling between the signal layer and the common electrode. The second signal may be generated by scaling amplitude and/or phase shifting the first signal. Response to the first signal is measured to determine contact position of the touch input device. Preferably, the portion of the signal layer disposed opposite the pixel electrode is a patterned layer of black matrix material, and the guard plane layer may be a transparent ITO layer. Alternatively, portions of the signal layer and guard plane layer disposed opposite the pixel electrode may be a patterned layer of black matrix material. A resistor network may be coupled to the signal layer to linearize resistance of the signal layer in a horizontal and vertical direction. By lowering the capacitive coupling between the signal layer and the common electrode, the guard plane layer and signal applied thereto enables the determination of contact position of a portion of the human body (such as a finger or a toe) based upon the measured response to the source signal. The present invention may be in display systems wherein a matrix of display elements are viewed from above a first side of a substrate and the display elements are disposed on the second side (i.e., the opposite side) of the substrate.

Title: Gas phase alkylation with split load of catalyst
Inventor: MERRILL JAMES T
IPC: B01J29/06
Filed: 1999-09-29
Granted: 2001-08-01
Abstract: Ethylbenzene is produced by alkylation over a split load of monoclinic silicalite alkylation catalysts having different silica/alumina ratios. A feedstock containing benzene and ethylene is applied to a multi-stage alkylation reaction zone having a plurality of series-connected catalyst beds. At least one catalyst bed contains first monoclinic silicalite catalyst having a silica/alumina ratio of at least 275. At least one other catalyst bed contains a second monoclinic silicalite catalyst having a silica/alumina ratio of less than about 275. The alkylation reaction zone is operated at temperature and pressure conditions in which the benzene is in a gaseous phase to cause gas-phase alkylation of the aromatic substrate in the presence of the monoclinic silicalite catalysts to produce an alkylation product. The alkylation product is then withdrawn from the reaction zone for separation and recovery. The use of the split load of catalyst allows a higher purity ethylbenzene product to be produced at improved efficiencies than if only one of the catalysts were used by itself.
