20100308205 | METHOD FOR AUTO FOCUS SEARCHING OF OPTICAL MICROSCOPE - A method for auto focus searching of optical microscopes is revealed. At first, sample a plurality of image signals according to a plurality of sampling positions. Then process the plurality of image signals to get a plurality of energy values. Next calculate a plurality of sharpness values of adjacent energy values and also calculate an absolute value corresponding to the sharpness value. Later check and find out a maximum value of the absolute values to get a sampling position corresponding to the image with the maximum value and use that position as the optimal focus position of the optical microscopes. By the sampling way, the energy values of the image signals are captured so as to save calculation time. Moreover, a sharpness value of adjacent energy value is also calculated so as to check the image captured at the best focus position quickly and reduce focus searching time of the optical microscope. Therefore, the focusing efficiency of the optical microscope is improved. | 12-09-2010 |

20130311991 | VIRTUAL MACHINE MIGRATION METHOD, SWITCH, AND VIRTUAL MACHINE SYSTEM - The present invention provides a virtual machine migration method, a switch, a virtual machine system. A switch receives a message sent by a server, where the message is used to enable the switch to discover a connected virtual machine interface; obtains, from the message, an identifier for indicating whether a virtual machine is migrated; and determines whether the virtual machine is a virtual machine migrated to the server according to the identifier indicating whether the virtual machine is migrated. According to the embodiments of the present invention, it may be determined whether an added virtual machine on a server is a newly created one or a migrated one. | 11-21-2013 |
20150143369 | Communications Method and System - A communications method and system. When a central control point learns that a virtual machine of a tenant is deployed on a first server, the central control point delivers, to the first server, a first local virtual local area network identifier (VLAN ID) pre-configured for the tenant, so that a virtual switch (vSwitch) of the first server stores a correspondence between the tenant and the first local VLAN ID and can control, according to the correspondence, communication between virtual machines of the tenant in a ToR switch to which the first server belongs; the central control point delivers, to a first ToR, a first mapping relationship that is between a global VLAN ID and the first local VLAN ID and is pre-configured for the tenant, so that the first ToR can control communication between virtual machines of the tenant in different servers according to the first mapping relationship. | 05-21-2015 |

20130256805 | METAL GATE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THEREOF - A method of semiconductor fabrication including forming a first work function metal layer on a first region of the substrate and forming a metal layer on the first work function metal layer and on a second region of the substrate. A dummy layer is formed on the metal layer. The layers are then patterned to form a first gate structure in the first region and a second gate structure in the second region of the substrate. The dummy layer is then removed to expose the metal layer, which is treated. The treatment may be an oxygen treatment that allows the metal layer to function as a second work function layer. | 10-03-2013 |

20090138071 | Cardia Stent - The present invention relates to a medical stent, and in particular to a cardia stent for treatment on the narrow carida of the oesophagus. The cardia stent according to the present invention is woven by wires of shape memory NiTi alloy. There is a drum-shaped locating port at its upper end, and a trumpet-shaped locating port at its lower end. The upper drum-shaped locating port is connected with the lower trumpet-shaped locating port by a supporting net tube. The remaining portions other than the drum-shaped locating port are coated with a membrane of medical flexible material that can be implanted into a human body. The cardia stent comprises at least an anti-reflux valve. The anti-reflux valve is of a triple-petal structure protruding downward that is made from a membrane of medical flexible material that can be implanted into a human body. The cardia stent has the advantages of: difficult to shift, matching with carida anatomy, high anti-reflux ability, easy operation, resisting the corrosion of gastric juice, and it can be used in expansion treatment on the narrow carida caused by variable reasons. | 05-28-2009 |
