A report generating and viewing method (10) for generating and viewing reports (72) over the internet (16). A request from a browser (14) is sent to a server (12) whereupon a generate reports program (38) in a server (12) creates an intermediate file (44) containing all the necessary data and metadata. When a request from the browser (14) to view the report (72) is sent, a view reports program (60) in the server (12) parses the intermediate file (44) and sends a menu (66) to the browser (14). The user then selects a report from the menu (66) and the server (12) sends the report (72) to the browser (14).

An improved micro slit viscometer includes a combined micrometer depth rectangular slit flow channel with monolithically integrated multiple pressure sensors in the flow channels and a pumping system that injects a test sample to the channel at a desired flow rate. Pressure sensing diaphragm of the monolithically integrated pressure sensors is smooth to minimize the flow disturbance thereby measuring accurate local pressures. With the measurement of the pressures at various locations of the channel the true viscosity of test sample can be calculated. The viscometer may consist of multiple flow channels and thus the true viscosity at multiple shear rates can be measured simultaneously for a given flow rate thereby obtaining a full viscosity curve as a function of shear rate of non-Newtonian liquids in a much faster manner. The viscometer needs only a miniscule amount of sample, which minimizes a waste of test material. The flow channels and the monolithically integrated pressure sensors are fabricated using microfabriaction processes on wafers and combined, which greatly reduce the production costs.

A method and structure is disclosed for constraining cache line replacement that processes a cache miss in a computer system. The invention contains a K-way set associative cache that selects lines in the cache for replacement. The invention constrains the selecting process so that only a predetermined subset of each set of cache lines is selected for replacement. The subset has at least a single cache line and the set size is at least two cache lines. The invention may further select between at least two cache lines based upon which of the cache lines was accessed least recently. A selective enablement of the constraining process is based on a free space memory condition of a memory associated with the cache memory. The invention may further constrain cache line replacement based upon whether the cache miss is from a non-local node in a nonuniform-memory-access system. The invention may also process cache writes so that a predetermined subset of each set is known to be in an unmodified state.
