An method and apparatus for forming wafers of varying thickness. The apparatus includes a template. The template is formed of a main disk including a plurality of cavities extending into a first side thereof. Each cavity has notches cut in the walls thereof and a pattern etched in the base thereof. Holding disks are moistened and positioned within respective cavities for releasably securing a wafer in the cavity. A moistening liquid is dispensed and diffuses into the cavities via the notches cut in the walls and collects in the pattern etched on the base of the cavity thereby increasing the suctional force used to secure the holding disk. When the template is releasably secured within a cavity, rotatably connected to a rotating head and positioned such that the first side faces a lapping and polishing surface, wafers received by the cavities are lapped and polished upon rotation of the rotating head.

A method and system that implement a process for managing video information on a video recording device. The management process involves receiving a video input signal including a video stream, obtaining content information corresponding to the video stream, associating the content information with the video stream, and storing the video stream and associated content information in a database as a searchable index for the video stream. The searchable index includes location of the stored video stream and identifies the associated content information. Then, content information from an input signal corresponding to a video stream is captured for analysis and searching the index to identify stored video streams related to the video program for suggestion to the user.

A device stores a plurality of applications and a list of associations for those applications. The applications are preferably stored within a secondary memory of the device, and once launched each application is loaded into RAM. Each application is preferably associated to one or more of the other applications. Preferably, no applications are launched when the device is powered on. A user selects an application, which is then launched by the device, thereby loading the application from the secondary memory to RAM. Whenever an application is determined to be associated with a currently active state application, and that associated application has yet to be loaded from secondary memory to RAM, the associated application is pre-launched such that the associated application is loaded into RAM, but is set to an inactive state.

A method and system for facilitating information searching for a user of an electronic device is provided. One implementation involves, on a client side, obtaining metadata for content accessed by a user via the electronic device, displaying terms based on said metadata for user selection, receiving a user selection including receiving selection of one or more of said terms from the user, forming a query based on the user selection to search for related data, and extracting data of interest to the user based on said query.

A computing system creates and stores semantic metadata on content, such as videos, that enables efficient searching of the content. The existing metadata of a video file, for example, is examined and a keyword list is created. The processes used to derive the keyword list may depend on the type and format of the existing metadata. The keywords from the list are compared against external structured knowledge data sources that are topic oriented. Based on these comparisons and the matches found, semantic data, including topic, topic type, and attribute data are inserted into a topic table. This uniform and structured table is stored on the computing system and is efficiently searchable for finding relevant videos and for finding relationships between videos.
