20090271713 | DOCUMENT COLLABORATION BY TRANSFORMING AND REFLECTING A DOCUMENT OBJECT MODEL - Technologies are described herein for document collaboration by transforming and reflecting a document object model. A DOM representation of a document to be shared is obtained at a host computer, transformed, and reflected to one or more participant computers. Each of the participant computers receives the DOM representation of the document and renders and displays the DOM representation locally. When the DOM representation is modified, changes to the DOM representation may also be transmitted to the participant computers, rendered, and displayed. Events occurring with respect to the DOM may also be synchronized between the host and participant computers. | 10-29-2009 |

20120104411 | TEXTURED III-V SEMICONDUCTOR - A method for fabricating a III-nitride semiconductor film, comprising depositing or growing a III-nitride semiconductor film in a semiconductor light absorbing or light emitting device structure; and growing a textured or structured surface of the III-nitride nitride semiconductor film in situ with the growing or the deposition of the III-nitride semiconductor film, by controlling the growing of the III-nitride semiconductor film to obtain a texture of the textured surface, or one or more structures of the structured surface, that increase output power of light from the light emitting device, or increase absorption of light in the light absorbing device. | 05-03-2012 |
20120180868 | III-NITRIDE FLIP-CHIP SOLAR CELLS - A III-nitride photovoltaic device structure and method for fabricating the III-nitride photovoltaic device that increases the light collection efficiency of the III-nitride photovoltaic device. The III-nitride photovoltaic device includes one or more III-nitride device layers, and the III-nitride photovoltaic device functions by collecting light that is incident on the back-side of the III-nitride device layers. The III-nitride device layers are grown on a substrate, wherein the III-nitride device layers are exposed when the substrate is removed and the exposed III-nitride device layers are then intentionally roughened to enhance their light collection efficiency. The collection of the incident light via the back-side of the device simplifies the fabrication of the multiple junctions in the device. The III-nitride photovoltaic device may include grid-like contacts, transparent or semi-transparent contacts, or reflective contacts. | 07-19-2012 |

The transistor also includes a source, a gate, a drain, and a second III-N barrier layer between the gate and the III-N channel layer. The second III-N barrier layer has an N-face proximal to the gate and a group-III face opposite the N-face, and has a larger bandgap than the III-N channel layer. The lattice constant of the first III-N barrier layer is within 0.5% of the lattice constant of the buffer layer. | 10-10-2013 |

20090190476 | FLAGGING OF PORT CONDITIONS IN HIGH SPEED NETWORKS - A non-intrusive condition flag is introduced into high-speed data network for flagging a fault condition without interrupting the normal operation of the network. The condition flag is chosen to be one that is relatively not germane with respect to disrupting the behavior of the ports under a particular network protocol, or that is normally ignored by the network ports and/or devices. The non-intrusive condition flag can be in the form of a marker represented by designating new, currently undefined, Ordered Sets that would not cause the ports to disrupt network behavior. The marker is represented by repeating the same designated Ordered Set twice in sequence, to give the marker fault tolerance and prevent re-transmission. Ordered Sets may be chosen to identify a segment stall condition, a port busy condition, or a user defined condition in a FC network. | 07-30-2009 |

20090172206 | DETECTION AND CONFIGURATION OF SAS/SATA CONNECTION - Given the different configurations for SAS and SATA Host and Target Ports, embodiments of the present invention automatically detect the configuration of SATA and SAS Phys when any device is inserted into a port enclosure and properly configure the connection regardless of the Phy configuration of the connected device. When a device is connected to the system, the port listens for either a SATA or SAS OOB signal to determine if the receive pin of the port is properly connected to the transmit signal of the attached device. By switching the configuration periodically and listening for the OOB signal, the port can determine which configuration is proper. Once a signal is detected, the port can properly configure the connection and continue with the SATA or SAS insertion algorithm. A user may alternatively choose which configuration to use and bypass the automatic detection and configuration. | 07-02-2009 |

20110106802 | Fixed content storage within a partitioned content platform using namespaces - Content platform management is enhanced by logically partitioning a physical cluster that comprises a redundant array of independent nodes. Using an interface, an administrator defines one or more “tenants” within the archive cluster, wherein a tenant has a set of attributes including, for example, namespaces, administrative accounts, data access accounts, and a permission mask. A namespace is a logical partition of the cluster that serves as a collection of objects typically associated with at least one defined application. Each namespace has a private file system such that access to one namespace (and its associated objects) does not enable a user to access objects in another namespace. A namespace has capabilities (e.g., read, write, delete, purge, and the like) that a namespace administrator can choose to enable or disable for a given data account. Using the interface, an administrator for the tenant creates and manages namespaces such that the cluster then is logically partitioned into a set of namespaces, wherein one or more namespaces are associated with a given tenant. This approach enables a user to segregate cluster data into logical partitions. Using the administrative interface, a namespace associated with a given tenant is selectively configured without affecting a configuration of at least one other namespace in the set of namespaces. This architecture enables support for many top level tenants, with multiple namespaces per tenant, and wherein configuration is effected at the level of a namespace. | 05-05-2011 |
