The present invention relates to using a trap-rich layer, such as a polycrystalline Silicon layer, over a semiconductor substrate to substantially immobilize a surface conduction layer at the surface of the semiconductor substrate at radio frequency (RF) frequencies. The trap-rich layer may have a high density of traps that trap carriers from the surface conduction layer. The average release time from the traps may be longer than the period of any present RF signals, thereby effectively immobilizing the surface conduction layer, which may substantially prevent capacitance and inductance changes due to the RF signals. Therefore, harmonic distortion of the RF signals may be significantly reduced or eliminated. The semiconductor substrate may be a Silicon substrate, a Gallium Arsenide substrate, or another substrate.

A computer dispatcher connected to one or more respective network buffers has stored file lists that identify one or more of the files in the database that are to be transmitted over networks connected to the respective network buffer. A scheduler(s) schedule one or more portions of one or more of the files to be written to the respective network buffers by defining transmission criteria about each of the files in the file list. These transmission criteria include a quantity to transmit criteria, defining a quantity of one or more of the portions of the respective file to transmit, and one or more release times. The release times define the time at which the respective portion is to be written to the network buffer. The system includes a dispatching process that determines an available space on one or more of the network buffers and a current system time. The dispatching process determines if the system time is greater than or equal to one of the release times and further takes a minimum value of the available space and the quantity of the respective portion. The dispatching process then writes the minimum value of the respective portion to one or more of the network buffers. A feedback mechanism, e.g. a quantity completion measure, is used to estimate a completion time of the writing of the respective portion to the respective network buffer. The scheduler then reschedules one or more of the portions if one or more of the portions can not be scheduled to meet the respective transmission criteria.

A scheduler selects an I / O from a session of a pool and updates token buckets associated with resource limits and reserves for the session and the pool and statistics used in determining fair sharing. To select an I / O, the scheduler identifies sessions with a non-empty queue, identifies head I / Os in the queues, computes for the head I / O a deadline using session and pool reserve buckets and a release time using session and pool limit buckets, and selects a head I / O with an earliest deadline that is past the release time. If the deadline of the selected candidate head I / O is in the past, the scheduler transfers the selected head I / O to the tail of the storage device queue. Otherwise, the scheduler selects the pool with the least amount of I / O traffic according to a session fair share estimator.

A required draining capacity of an electrically-powered oil pump is reduced and a small sizing of the electrically-powered oil pump is achieved by devising how to issue a starting frictional element engagement pressure command value.[Means for Solving the Problem]An engine is restarted in response to an idle stop OFF command at t1 so that a gear shift control purpose hydraulic pressure is raised according to a working oil from an engine driven oil pump. An idle stop release time control of the engine is allowed according to a torque down unnecessary determination when a gear shift control purpose hydraulic pressure has reached to a set hydraulic pressure at t2. In a case where this allowance causes an engine torque Te to be raised from a torque down value toward a driving operation corresponding value by a predetermined gradient ΔTe1, a command value of a starting frictional element engagement pressure PS is set to a control maximum value (a drain port opening angle of a clutch hydraulic pressure control valve for a clutch hydraulic pressure (an engagement pressure) command value is made small as compared with that in a case of an ordinary control (is made difficult to drain)) during the idle stop control including during the idle stop release time control. Thus, when starting frictional element engagement pressure PS is controlled upon receipt of this command value, the working oil from the electrically-powered oil pump is not needed to be drained. Consequently, the electrically-powered oil pump is not needed to discharge this draining working oil and the small-sizing can be achieved.
