Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing aluminum nitride and aluminum nitride prepared by the same. Pure aluminum powder having a median particle size (D50) of 1.52 μm was heated to a temperature in a range of 595° C.˜900° C. in a nitrogen containing atmosphere comprising nitrogen and argon gases, at atmospheric pressure for one hour to obtain aluminum nitride with a degree of nitridation exceeding 93%. According to the present invention aluminum nitride may be produced with high yield using a simple and inexpensive one-step heating method in a relatively short period of time.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to a method of fabricating an aluminum matrix composite by a simple process of heating a mixture of a ceramic reinforcing phase and aluminum in nitrogen containing atmosphere and an aluminum matrix composite fabricated by the same. The aluminum matrix composite may be fabricated by heating to temperatures even lower than the melting temperature of aluminum as well as to temperatures higher. The exothermic nitridation reaction contributes to the melting of the aluminum matrix and the aluminum nitride formed in-situ as a result may act as an additional reinforcing phase.

Abstract:
To control a display layout of at least display associated with a remote computer, a client computer receives at least one user setting for the display layout of the at least one display associated with the remote computer. The client computer obtains, from the remote computer, information relating to properties of the display layout of the at least one display. The client computer sends information relating to the layout to a remote server for storage at the remote server for later retrieval.
Abstract:
A persistent connection may be established between a first and second computing device based on a signal received by the first computing device from the second computing device, where the second computing device is protected by a protective mechanism that blocks unauthorized signals from reaching the second computing device and the signal from the second computing device is allowed by the protective mechanism. A command signal may be sent to the second computing device over the persistent connection, and an exchange of conferencing transmissions may be orchestrated by the first computing device between the second computing device and other computing devices connected to the first computing device.
Abstract:
Embodiments directed to novel systems and method for cache management in a distributed system are described. In one embodiment, a system comprises a plurality of processing nodes, each processing node comprising a functional unit and has a local memory directly coupled therewith. Each processing node, of the plurality of processing nodes, also comprises a cache controller and an associated cache memory. Finally, each processing node of the plurality of processing nodes comprises logic for writing requested data in the associated cache memory if the request for data originated from a functional unit of another node (or for reading requested data from the associated cache memory, if the request for data originated form a functional unit of another node).
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention are broadly directed to novel systems and methods for evaluating a performance aspect in a multi-computer graphics system. One embodiment comprises selection logic capable of enabling a user to specify at least one render node for selection and generating logic associated with the compositor for generating the composite output signal, the generating logic being capable of eliminating, from at least a portion of the composite output signal, content from the video signals from all render nodes not specified for selection.
