In this paper, we propose a practical method for solving the delivery scheduling problem anddiscuss its implementation. The method is based on the distributed cooperative problem solving. In the delivery scheduling method, the coveredregion is partitioned into multiple subregions and each subregion is assigned a subproblem solving agent. Integrating those subproblem solving agents, an integration-and-evaluation agent solves the total problem. By employing the distributed cooperative problem solving framework for the delivery scheduling problem, we achieved an easy incorporation of various evaluation parameters in the process of scheduling, efficient use and management of scheduling knowledge of various levels, andreduction of computer processing by division of the problem into subproblems.

We developed a hole shrink process namedrELACS (resolution Enhancement Lithography Assisted by Chemical Shrink) that is a robust and low-cost method. This method makes use of crosslinking reaction between the materials coated on the resist pattern, and the acid existing at the resist wall. By the rELACS, we could shrink KrF resist hole patterns to 0.1 /spl mu/m level. The shrinkage of hole size is dependent on both baking temperature and initial hole size. This process has been established for the fabrication of 0.20 /spl mu/m devices.

We have statistically analyzed 28800 cells of arrayed stacked gate transistors, and, for the first time, we discuss the effectiveness of NO and N/sub 2/O nitridation in suppressing microscopic SILC (mSILC). We have found that NO nitridation is more effective in suppressing the mSILC than N/sub 2/O nitridation and is very promising for the reduction of bit failures.

The Pt/Ta diffusion barrier using hybrid conductive oxide (ruO2) fordynamic random access memory and ferroelectric random access memory capacitor bottom electrodes is proposed. The thermal stability of Pt+ruO2 (50 nm)/Ta+ruO2 (50 nm)/TiSi2/poly-Si/SiO2/Si contact system is investigated and compared to that of the Pt(50 nm)/Ta(50 nm)/TiSi2/poly-Si/SiO2/Si contact system. The Pt+ruO2/Ta+ruO2/TiSi2/poly-Si/SiO2/Si contact system sustained its structure up to 650 °C, whereas Pt/Ta/TiSi2/poly-Si/SiO2/Si contact system was completely degraded after annealing at 650 °C. In the former case, the addition of ruthenium dioxide (ruO2) into the Pt bottom electrode layer led to retardation of the oxygen indiffusion, preventing the indiffusion of oxygen up to 650 °C. In addition, the Ta+ruO2 diffusion barrier showed an amorphous structure andruO2 is bound to the Ta matrix, inhibiting the interdiffusion of O, Pt, and Si through grain boundaries which can act as fast diffusion paths up to high temperatures. Therefore, it appeared that the barrier properties of Pt/Ta diffusion barrier are improved by using hybrid conductive oxide (ruO2).

In this paper, we propose a methodology fordistance learning lessons with the aim of stimulating pupil's desire to learn while enhancing their creative abilities. Based on this concept, we constructed the educational system hiring the modern technologies of CSCW (Computer Supported Cooperative Work) and multimedia communication, and conducted the verification experiments in some elementary schools in Japan with a result of confirming the efficacy of the proposed methodology.
