Abstract: A storage system in one embodiment comprises a host processor, and a solid-state storage device coupled to the host processor and comprising a non-volatile memory and a storage controller. The host processor is configured to initiate an error scanning operation on a designated portion of the non-volatile memory by directing at least one read command to the storage controller. The read command is configured to indicate to the storage controller that data read from the non-volatile memory responsive to the read command is not to be returned to the host processor. For example, the read command may illustratively comprise a Scatter Gather List (SGL) bit bucket descriptor indicating that the data read from the non-volatile memory responsive to the read command is to be discarded rather than returned to the host processor. The storage controller records any detected errors in a media error log and notifies the host processor of such errors.

Abstract: A method of making an electronics enclosure that is light-weight, structurally sound and EMI resistant is provided. Preferably the electronics enclosure is made by covering the walls of a mold for the chassis and the lid with a metallic mesh. At least two plies of carbon prepreg are applied over the metallic mesh. The carbon prepreg and metallic mesh are then cured together at high temperature, typically in an autoclave. The wire mesh becomes integrated into the composite material during the curing process when the carbon material shrinks to the mold and the epoxy bonds with the wire mesh. The molds may then be removed leaving an electronics enclosure with superior properties.

Abstract: Caches may be vulnerable to side-channel attacks, such as Spectre and Meltdown, that involve speculative execution of instructions, revealing information about a cache that the attacker is not permitted to access. Access permission may be stored in the cache, such as in an entry of a cache table or in the region information for a cache table. Optionally, the access permission may be re-checked if the access permission changes while a memory instruction is pending. Optionally, a random index value may be stored in a cache and used, at least in part, to identify a memory location of a cacheline. Optionally, cachelines that are involved in speculative loads for memory instructions may be marked as speculative. On condition of resolving the speculative load as non-speculative, the cacheline may be marked as non-speculative; and on condition of resolving the speculative load as mis-speculated, the cacheline may be removed from the cache.

Abstract: A system is provided for monitoring and predicting traffic conditions in a vicinity of a system vehicle having a stop indicator system. The system may include one or more radar modules programmed to detect target vehicles traveling within a predetermined radar detection area near the system vehicle. The radar modules may be further programmed to detect signals associated with target vehicles and generate signals indicative of alert conditions. The radar modules may be programmed to execute various algorithms which generate alert condition signals in response to determining and analyzing a current distance, a braking distance, and/or a velocity of the target vehicle detected in the radar detection area. The system can communicate appropriate alert notifications in response to the generated alert condition signals.

In each CLB location information values are stored, each location information value indicating a location associated with a respective data unit, wherein each location information value stored in a given CLB indicates the location to be either a location within the private cache disposed in the same node as the given CLB, to be a location in one of the other nodes, or to be a location in a main memory. Coherence of values of the data units is maintained using a cache coherence protocol The location information values stored in the CLBs are updated by the cache coherence protocol in accordance with movements of their respective data units.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods for synthesis of concept definitions and concept relationships from a domain of data, utilizing different semantic processing protocols such as formal concept analysis and faceted classification synthesis from existing domain concepts that have a confidence gradient built into them. A cognitive or an input agent provides an input of an active concept which is matched against existing domain concepts. The resultant pool of relevant domain concepts is then used to derive virtual concept definitions using a semantic processing protocol. The derivation is then overlaid with a concept of relative proximity of an attribute from another within an attribute set. An additional layer of coherence is given by the relative proximity measure. The end result is a pool of related virtual concept definitions in a tree structure.

Abstract: Methods and systems which, for example, reduce energy usage in cache memories are described. Cache location information regarding the location of cachelines which are stored in a tracked portion of a memory hierarchy is stored in a cache location table. Address tags are stored with corresponding location information in the cache location table to associate the address tag with the cacheline and its cache location information. When a cacheline is moved to a new location in the memory hierarchy, the cache location table is updated so that the cache location information indicates where the cacheline is located within the memory hierarchy.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user device can be configured to create media messages with automatic titling. For example, a user can create a media messaging project that includes multiple video clips. The video clips can be generated based on video data and/or audio data captured by the user device and/or based on pre-recorded video data and/or audio data obtained from various storage locations. When the user device captures the audio data for a clip, the user device can obtain a speech-to-text transcription of the audio data in near real time and present the transcription data (e.g., text) overlaid on the video data while the video data is being captured or presented by the user device.
