Truly standard‐essential patents? A semantics‐based analysis

Recognizing chemicals in patents: a comparative analysis

Recently, methods for Chemical Named Entity Recognition (NER) have gained substantial interest, driven by the need for automatically analyzing todays ever growing collections of biomedical text. Chemical NER for patents is particularly essential due to the high economic importance of pharmaceutical findings. However, NER on patents has essentially been neglected by the research community for lo...

A truly meshless method formulation for analysis of non-Fourier heat conduction in solids

The non-Fourier effect in heat conduction is important in strong thermal environments and thermal shock problems. Generally, commercial FE codes are not available for analysis of non-Fourier heat conduction. In this study, a meshless formulation is presented for the analysis of the non-Fourier heat conduction in the materials. The formulation is based on the symmetric local weak form of the sec...

An Aluminum Nitride (AlN) MEMS resonator technology has been developed, enabling massively parallel filter and oscillator arrays on a single chip. Low loss filter banks and resonator arrays covering the 10MHz10GHz frequency range have been demonstrated, as has monolithic integration with inductors and CMOS circuitry. The high level of integration enables miniature multi-band, spectrally-aware a...

A Truly Magic Solution

Beginning in 1988, the Merced County Human Services Agency in California realized it needed to find a solution to the rising costs of providing human services to a growing population and to the 35-percent turnover rate among its caseworkers. After selecting Andersen Consulting to provide assistance in solving its problems, the agency was helped with a little MAGIC (Merced automated global infor...
