We have discovered that the formation of particulate inclusions at the surface and the interior of an aluminum alloy article interferes with the performance of the article when a surface of the article is protected by an anodized coating. We have also discovered that the formation of such particulate inclusions can be controlled to a large extent by controlling the concentration of particular impurities present in the alloy used to fabricate the aluminum alloy article.

An embodiment of the present invention provides for an apparatus for memory access demarcation. Data is accessed from a first cache, which comprises a first set of addresses and corresponding data at each of the addresses in the first set. A plurality of addresses is generated for a second set of addresses. The second set of addresses follows the first set of addresses. The second set of addresses are calculated based on a fixed stride, where the second set of addresses are associated with data from a first stream. A plurality of addresses is generated for a third set of addresses. The third set of addresses follows the first set of addresses. Each address in the third set of addresses is generated by tracing a link associated with another address in the third set of addresses. The third set of addresses is associated with data from a second stream.

A method of manufacturing a magnetic recording medium comprises steps of: (a) preparing a sol solution containing gel particles; (b) treating the sol solution to remove gel particles having a size greater than a predetermined maximum size; (c) providing a non-magnetic substrate for a magnetic recording medium, the substrate including a surface; and (d) applying a layer of the treated sol solution to the surface of the substrate; (e) converting the layer of treated sol solution to a layer of sol-gel having a hardness less than that of the surface of the substrate, an exposed surface of the layer of sol-gel having very low surface micro-waviness and substantially no defects in the form of protrusions or bumps; (f) forming a pattern in the exposed surface of the layer of sol-gel; (g) converting the layer of sol-gel to a glass or glass-like layer having a density and hardness substantially comparable to that of the surface of the substrate, while preserving the pattern formed in an exposed surface of the glass or glass-like layer and (h) forming a stack of thin film layers over an exposed surface of the glass or glass-like layer formed in step (g), the stack of layers including at least one ferromagnetic layer.

A method of manufacturing a magnetic recording medium comprises steps of providing a non-magnetic substrate for a magnetic recording medium, the substrate including at least one major surface; forming a layer of a sol-gel on the at least one major surface; forming a pattern, e. g. , a servo pattern in an exposed surface of the layer of said sol-gel; and converting the layer of sol-gel to a glass or glass-like layer while preserving the pattern in an exposed surface of said glass or glass-like layer. Embodiments of the invention include magnetic media including a patterned glass or glass-like layer formed from a layer of a hydrophilic sol-gel with the pattern embossed therein by means of a stamper having a hydrophilic surface including a negative image of the pattern.

This invention pertains to nucleic acid fragments encoding plant proteins that are homologs to the cis-prenyltransferases UPP synthase from the bacterium or Dedol-PP synthase from yeast. More specifically, this invention pertains to cis-prenyltransferase homologs from wheat, grape, soybean, rice, African daisy, rubber tree latex and pot marigold.

A method of fabricating a process chamber component that has a ceramic form with grains and grain boundary regions. In the method, the component is bead blasted to provide a surface having a relatively low roughness average of less than about 150 microinches. The component is dipped into a solution having a concentration that is sufficiently low to reduce etching of grain boundary regions of the ceramic form. A metal coating is formed over at least a portion of the ceramic form. The component fabricated by this method can tolerate thicker deposits of sputtered material in a sputtering process without the sputtered deposit accumulates causing spalling of the coating of the component.

A load instruction is classified as vital or non-vital. One of a number of caches with different latencies is selected, based on a vitality of the load instruction. Data are then loaded through the selected cache into a register in a microprocessor.
