Abstract: A system includes a first processor configured to transmit to a second processor via a secure network session, a first payload configured for a transaction in a public blockchain network including a transaction amount, and a wallet address of a cryptocurrency account, and, in response to receiving, from a blockchain node associated with the cryptocurrency account, an indication that the cryptocurrency account has received a first monetary amount via the public blockchain network, transmit, to the second processor via the secure network session, a second payload indicating the first monetary amount that is less than the transaction amount. In response to the second processor validating the first monetary amount, the second processor transmits, using a blockchain node associated with the cryptocurrency account, a remainder of the transaction amount to the cryptocurrency account via the public blockchain network.

Abstract: A system and method of selecting a predefined Huffman dictionary from a bank of dictionaries. The dictionary selection mechanism of the present invention effectively breaks the built-in tradeoff between compression ratio and compression rate for both hardware and software compression implementations. A mechanism is provided for automatically creating a predefined Huffman dictionary for a set of input files. The dictionary selection mechanism achieves high compression rate and ratio leveraging predefined Huffman dictionaries and provides a mechanism for dynamically speculating which predefined dictionary to select per input data block, thereby achieving close to a dynamic Huffman ratio at a static Huffman rate. In addition, a feedback loop is used to monitor the ongoing performance of the preset currently selected for use by the hardware accelerator. If the current preset is not optimal it is replaced with an optimal preset.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of low latency precedence ordering check in a PCI Express (PCIe) multiple root I/O virtualization (MR-IOV) environment. The precedence ordering check mechanism aids in enabling a port to comply with PCIe MR-IOV ordering rules. A posted information array mirrors a posted transaction queue, storing precedence order indicator and Virtual Hierarchy (VH) tag information for corresponding posted transaction entries stored in the posted transaction queue. The selector queries the posted information array periodically, such as each cycle, to determine whether the non-posted/completion transaction at the output of their respective queues have any preceding posted transactions of the same VH somewhere in the posted queue.
