A method for manufacturing a light-emitting panel sandwiches a plurality of micro-components between two flexible substrates in a web configuration. Each micro-component contains a gas or gas-mixture capable of ionization when a sufficiently large voltage is supplied across the micro-component via at least two electrodes.

The present invention relates to layer manufacturing, more particularly to a method for additive layer manufacturing of objects comprised of more than one material with free-form capability for all included materials. The invention can for example be used for producing packaging for Microsystems where the ceramic acts as an insulator and the secondary material is used to produce electrical or optical 3D conductor lines or electrical or optical 3D vias. The fine powder used in this method enables it to be used for building components with small feature size and demand for high precision. Other intended uses for this method is to build small mechanical precision parts or grinding tools, dental objects or medical implants.

A support and a method for fluidic assembly are provided. The support has a surface having binding sites adapted to receive micro-components of a type that are applied to the surface using a fluid; and energy absorbing heat producers at selected binding site. Each energy absorbing heat producer is adapted to receive energy and to transduce a portion of the received energy to heat the fluid proximate to the selected binding sites; so that when the micro-components are applied using a fluid that increases viscosity when heated, the heat generated by the energy absorbing heat producers increases the viscosity of the fluid proximate to the selected binding sites to prevent the micro-components from attaching to the selected binding sites.

A computer processing and programming method calls for creating a plurality of software entities (“molecules”) which can be dynamically configured to process data autonomously. The molecules can send and receive signals indicating the state of a molecule, whether or not a processing task is fulfilled, the results of a processing task, and whether or not the operation of a molecule is to be terminated, interrupted, reconfigured, or continued by creation of one or more “next” molecules. The molecules are created from a common set of software micro-components, which may be programmed in any programming languages to run in any operating system environments. The molecules may reside with a single computing resource, however, they are ideally suited to be deployed with distributed computing resources of different types on a network or in a parallel processing environment. An overall data processing task is performed by creating molecules in a “logic web” which can dynamically adapt to fulfill the task. Logic webs can be assigned to operate with different legacy systems, with applications programmed in different languages, and with data of any type stored in any format. As a result, data processing tasks in distributed or parallel processing environments can be performed much more efficiently, and entirely new types of data processing tasks can be undertaken.

With the model prediction-based doubly salient permanent magnet synchronous motor direct torque control method of the invention adopted, switching frequency and loss can be effectively decreased, and torque fluctuation of the motor can be decreased.
