  • DIGITAL DISPLAY SCREEN AND VEHICLE COMPONENT COMPRISING SUCH A DIGITAL DISPLAY SCREEN
    Publication number: 20240176184
    Abstract: A digital display screen having an image displaying element and a backlighting device configured to backlight the image displaying element. The backlighting device defines a plurality of lighting zones, each lighting zone comprising one light source controllable to adjust the lighting intensity generated by the lighting zone. The lighting zones include at least one first lighting zone defining a first lighting surface having a first area and at least one second lighting zone defining a second lighting surface having a second area, the second area being strictly smaller than the first area.

  • Methods and system of virtual circuit identification based on bit permutation of link numbers for multi-stage elements
    Patent number: 7336658
    Abstract: A method and system of assigning paths through an interconnection network (100) consisting of a plurality of switching elements (102:165) and a plurality of links coupling the switching elements (102:165) are provided. Physical restrictions of the interconnection network (100) are used to arrive at a logical representation of an architecture of the interconnection network (100). Traffic patterns of the interconnection network (100) are determined to balance the data traffic through the links coupling the switching elements (102:165). The logical representation and traffic patterns of the interconnection network (100) are used to setup virtual channel identifiers that determine paths through the switching elements and links so that data traffic is more evenly distributed through the interconnection network (100).
