Patent number: 9841322Abstract: A spectrometric device for optical analysis of material composition, coating thickness, surface porosity, and/or other characteristics uses several monochromatic light sources—e.g., laser diodes—to illuminate a sample, with a camera taking an image of the sample under each source's light, and with the various images then being combined to generate a (hyper)spectral image. To address the difficulty in obtaining uniform illumination intensity across the illuminated sample area with solid-state light sources, the output from the light sources may be supplied to an integrating sphere (preferably after being combined within a fiber combiner), and then to a fiber bundle whose output ends are configured as a ring light (a ring of fiber ends directing light at a common spot). The camera may then focus on the spot, at which the sample may be placed for illumination and imaging.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2015Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: Kemeny Associates LLCInventors: Gabor John Kemeny, Gard Anders Groth, Christopher Erwin Zueger, Xu Zhai, Gina Elaine Stuessy, Natalie Ann Crothers, Howland Jones

Patent number: 8190584Abstract: An electronic device provides electronic access to a dataset representing meaningful information. The electronic device generates a first subset permutation based on a first subset of the dataset, and generates a second subset permutation based on a second subset of the dataset. Each subset of the dataset includes a series of data elements having a particular fixed bit-length. The first subset permutation includes a rearrangement of the series of data elements of the first subset. Similarly, the second subset permutation includes a rearrangement of the series of data elements of the second subset. The electronic device further forms an electronic aggregation based on the first subset permutation and the second subset permutation, and generates an aggregation permutation based on the electronic aggregation. The aggregation permutation includes a rearrangement of portions of the electronic aggregation. The meaningful information is fully recoverable from the aggregation permutation.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2009Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: EMC CorporationInventor: John Kemeny

Patent number: 7493458Abstract: A point in time copy of a data set is provided using a two-phase snapshot copy operation. When a write request is received, as part of the first phase, a chunk including the target location of the write request is determined. Using a “copy on first write” technique, the data at the target location is copied to a snap data area in an allocated data area that is the size of the chunk. A first map for the data set is updated to include up to three entries representing a mapping of the segment including the target location. A second map for the snap data area is updated to include a single entry for the copy of the data from the target location. As part of the second phase, the multiple entries in the first map are coalesced into a single entry after the remaining portions of the chunk are copied to the data area in the snap data area.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2004Date of Patent: February 17, 2009Assignee: EMC CorporationInventors: John Kemeny, Michael R. McCarthy, Bradford B. Glade, David Harvey, James A. Wentworth, III, William B. Whalen, Matthew Waxman

Patent number: 6701393Abstract: A device (e.g., a secondary cache device) manages descriptors which correspond to storage locations (e.g., cache blocks). The device includes memory and a control circuit coupled to the memory. The control circuit is configured to arrange the descriptors, which correspond to the storage locations, into multiple queues within the memory based on storage location access frequencies. The control circuit is further configured to determine whether an expiration timer for the particular descriptor has expired in response to a particular descriptor reaching a head of a particular queue. The control circuit is further configured to move the particular descriptor from the head of the particular queue to a different part of the multiple queues, wherein the different part is identified based on access frequency when the expiration timer for the particular descriptor has not expired, and not based on access frequency when the expiration timer for the particular descriptor has expired.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2002Date of Patent: March 2, 2004Assignee: EMC CorporationInventors: John Kemeny, Naizhong Qui, Xueying Shen
