A flow meter for use in a flow stream with a tubular housing, including a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, in the flow stream, with the inlet pressure exceeding the outlet pressure. The interior has an orifice defined in a crystalline silicon membrane, along crystal planes of the silicon so that the geometry of the orifices is precisely known and has a sharp knife edge rim profile. Where the fluid is a gas, pressure and temperature transducers measure conditions inside of the housing for application of gas law principles. By using instantaneous pressure and temperature in the chamber, mass flow through the outlet orifices of the chamber is computed and delivered as an output signal.

A method for removing component mismatch errors for a system parameter being set by a ratio of two or more physical, electrical components (“components”) of the same kind on an integrated circuit including providing an array of component units having the same component value, determining the actual component values of each component unit in the array, selecting component units based on the actual component values to form pairs of component units where the pairs have approximately the same total component values, ordering the component unit pairs, assigning alternate component unit pairs to be associated with each of the two or more components, rotating at a first frequency the assignment of the component unit pairs. At each rotation, the component unit pairs to be associated with each component are shifted so that each component unit pair is associated with a different one of the two or more components in turn.

A method for performing a search of a plurality of documents for similarity to a query word includes retrieving a first document, and determining a number of occurrences of the at least one query word in the first document. Then, a next document is retrieved and a number of occurrences of the at least one query word in the next document is determined. The steps are repeated until each of the plurality of documents have been retrieved, and the number of occurrences of the at least one query word has been determined in each of the plurality of documents. The query word can include a plurality of query words, all of which are searched in each document, in turn, rather than being searched word by word in the whole collection of documents. The documents are then ranked according to the number of occurrences of the query words determined in each document, and a list of documents is produced according to the document ranking.

A method for calibrating an analog-to-digital converter includes sampling an analog input signal and generating input samples, reversing the polarity of at least one input sample, averaging the digital output codes associated with a first pair of input samples where the first pair of input samples has opposite polarities, and generating an offset correction value being the average of the digital output codes associated with the first pair of input samples. In another embodiment, a method for calibrating an ADC includes sampling the analog input signal and generating input samples, introducing an incremental value to modify the magnitude of at least one input sample, computing an actual gain value using the digital output codes associated with a first input sample and a second input sample having the modified magnitude, and generating a gain correction value being the ratio of an ideal gain of the ADC to the actual gain.

Systems and methods to process a query with a unified storage interface are described. The system receives a query from a client machine and generates a query expression tree based on the query expression. The system generates a cursor expression tree based on the query expression tree. The system executes a plurality of software components in the cursor expression tree to retrieve data from a first storage device. The plurality of software components comprise a first software component that is utilized to retrieve data irrespective of a plurality of storage devices and a second software component that is utilized to retrieve data from a first storage device. Finally, the system communicates search results to the client machine, the search results include at least a portion of the data.

A method and apparatus for calculating the surface distance between two geographical locations are described. According to one aspect of the present invention, values are stored in a square look-up table for determining the square of a value. Also, values are stored in a linear to surface distance look-up table for determining the surface distance of a linear value. Cartesian co-ordinates of the two geographic locations and the square look-up table are then used to calculate the square of the linear distance between the two geographical locations and the linear to surface distance look-up table is used to convert the calculated square of the linear distance to a surface distance.

A method and system to process a data search request. The system includes a query controller module to receive the data search request that includes constraints; a reduced constraint builder module to formulate a plurality of search definitions that are formulated to exclude at least one constraint; and a search engine to perform searches of a data source to generate search results and to utilize the search results to calculate counts of data items that respectively correspond to the search definitions. The query controller module communicates the counts of data items and the corresponding search definitions to a client machine. Each of the search definitions is formulated to include a constraint set.
