Abstract: A controller executes a first LBIST test on a device at a first shift frequency on a plurality of partitions and detects any voltage drop at sense points in each partition during the test. If a voltage drop is detected, then the test is re-run for those partitions that failed the first test. If failures are detected during the re-execution, then a further test at a lower shift frequency is performed. The partitions can be tested sequentially or in parallel and invention has the advantage of reducing the time taken for executing LBIST when the device is booted.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a set of electronic circuits, a voltage regulator, and a power management module. The power management module includes a set of dummy circuits connected to the set of electronic circuits, a control signal generator, a counter and a shift register. The control signal generator generates a control signal based on the current consumption of the set of electronic circuits dropping below a threshold value over a predefined period of time. The counter generates a count signal for a predetermined time period when the control signal is activated. The shift register receives the count signal, enables the dummy circuits when the count signal is received, and disables the dummy circuits in a daisy chain fashion during the predetermined time period.

Abstract: Hardware processors in an SOC integrated circuit logically swapping memories by remapping memory addresses, including tightly coupled and local memories, to enable a sequence of data-processing algorithms to execute more quickly by different hardware processors without having to copy the data between different memories using a relatively slow data crossbar switch. When a memory stores error-correction code (ECC) address information linking stored ECC data with stored user data, the hardware processor dynamically remaps the ECC address information, as needed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for verifying integrity of cloud data using unconnected trusted device. The method involves requesting encrypted data though a terminal from a metadata offsite location on a cloud storage then entering encrypted data into an unconnected trusted device thereafter obtaining sentinel data from one or more predefined sentinel locations in encrypted data then requesting original data from the cloud storage through the terminal from the unconnected trusted device thereafter comparing sentinel data and original data for integrity and finally displaying the results.

Abstract: Techniques for providing internet services to a user through a toll free connection are provided. The techniques include receiving, from an Internet Access Point (IAP), a request for the internet services through the toll free connection provided by a Cloud Service Provider (CSP), wherein the CSP is selected by the user from a plurality of CSPs. Access credentials are received from IAP and are forwarded to the selected CSP. A token is received from the CSP if the user is authenticated by the CSP based on the access credentials. The token is sent to the IAP wherein the token is used by the user to access the Internet services through the toll free connection.

Abstract: The present invention describes a system, method and computer product program for computation of alarm time. The system includes an alarm device for generating an alarm. The system also includes an alarm application hosted on the alarm device for providing at least one user defined alarm condition. The system further includes an alarm engine for receiving the user defined alarm condition, initiating a probe to receive data from data sources, processing the received alarm conditions and the received data to compute the alarm time and next probe time repeating iteratively until the next probe time is less than the computed alarm time. The system generates alarm at the computed alarm time when the next probe time becomes greater than the alarm time.

Abstract: A system for testing an error detection circuit includes a fault injection unit for operating the error detection circuit in a fault injection mode. A fault is inserted in either of a primary or a redundant processor. Output signals generated by the primary and redundant processors are compared and checked for a mismatch and the error detection circuit outputs a test signal based on the comparison result.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a flip-flop that stores data when the IC is in built-in self-test (BIST) mode. The flip-flop includes a master latch connected to a slave latch, which in turn is connected to a data retention latch. A control circuit is connected to the flip-flop. During normal operation, the master latch receives a data input signal, which is transmitted through the slave latch to another flip-flop of the IC. When the control circuit initiates BIST (scan testing), data stored in the slave latch is transferred to the data retention latch. Upon completion of BIST, the data stored in the retention latch is used to restore the flip-flop to its original state.

Abstract: A data processor includes a reset controller for controlling reset of the processing system and a volatile memory controller for controlling writing data to a volatile memory module, typically a RAM module. The reset controller responds to an asynchronous reset signal to inhibit write operations of the volatile memory controller to the volatile memory module and to delay reset of the processing system until the write operations have been inhibited.

Abstract: A mobile communication device (100) uses a local wireless transceiver (108) to establish an asynchronous link (202) with a remote audio processor (110) which is typically operated in a low power mode and that maintains an association between the mobile communication device and remote audio processor. When the mobile communication device receives an incoming call page (210), the mobile communication device initiates a synchronous link with the remote audio processor, and responds to the incoming call page at a time when the call will be connected only after the synchronous link is established.
