Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with reinforcement learning agent-based metrics for describing monitoring system strength are described. In one embodiment, a method to test effectiveness of a transaction monitoring system includes executing a reinforcement learning agent to perform a sequence of test transactions that cumulatively transfer an amount without detection by a scenario. The set of test transactions is recorded along with responses made by the transaction monitoring system in response to each test transaction being performed. A metric that represents the effectiveness of the transaction monitoring system for resisting suspicious activity is generated based on the sequence of test transactions and the responses. A visualization of the metric to represent the effectiveness of the transaction monitoring system for resisting suspicious activity is generated for display in a graphical user interface.

Abstract: A new approach is proposed to support hardware-based protection for registers of an electronic device. Sources requesting access to the registers are categorized into a set of internal sources that can be trusted and a set of external sources that are untrusted. The registers are classified into a set of internal registers allowed to be accessed by the internal resources only, a set of read-only external registers that can be read by the external resources in addition to accessed by the internal resources, and a set of read/write external registers that can be read and written by both the internal and the external resources. Each access request by a source to the registers includes the source type, wherein access request is granted or denied based on the matching between the source bits in the access request and the register classification bits of the one or more registers to be accessed.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with enabling client-side enforcement of custom rules when the client is in offline mode include storing a custom rule script that describes a custom rule in a mobile application client. Then, while the mobile application client is in an offline mode, accept a user input through the mobile application client to create or modify an object, determine that the custom rule script is associated with a triggering event that occurred due to the input to create or modify the object, and immediately enforce the custom rule script to validate the user input upon occurrence of the triggering event. The custom rule script is enforced prior to creating or modifying the object. Upon placement of the mobile application client into the online mode, synchronize the object as created or modified by the validated user input to a mobile application server.

Abstract: A new approach contemplates systems and methods to support control of power consumption of a memory on a chip by throttling port access requests to the memory via a memory arbiter based on a one or more programmable parameters. The memory arbiter is configured to restrict the number of ports being used to access the memory at the same time to be less than the available ports of the memory, thereby enabling adaptive power control of the chip. Two port throttling schemes are enabled—strict port throttling, which throttles the number of ports granted for memory access to be no more than a user-configured maximum throttle port number, and leaky bucket port throttling, which throttles the number of ports granted for the memory access down to be within a range based on a number of credit tokens maintained in a credit register.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with enabling client-side enforcement of custom rules when the client is in offline mode include: creating a custom rule for enforcement on a mobile application client on a mobile application server; defining characteristics of user accounts for which the mobile application client is to enforce the custom rule; in response to a connection being established between an instance of the mobile application client for a specific user account and the mobile application server, determining that the instance of the mobile application client should enforce the custom rule based at least in part on a match between characteristics of the specific user account and the defined characteristics; and transmitting the custom rule to the instance of the mobile application client to enable the instance to enforce the custom rule when the instance is operating in the offline mode.

Abstract: A method includes synthetizing a hardware description language (HDL) code into a netlist comprising a first a second and a third components. The method further includes allocating addresses to each component of the netlist. Each allocated address includes assigned addresses and unassigned addresses. An internal address space for a chip is formed based on the allocated addresses. The internal address space includes assigned addresses followed by unassigned addresses for the first component concatenated to the assigned addresses followed by unassigned addresses for the second component concatenated to the assigned addresses followed by unassigned addresses for the third component. An external address space for components outside of the chip is generated that includes only the assigned addresses of the first component concatenated to the assigned addresses of the second component concatenated to the assigned addresses of the third component. Internal addresses are translated to external addresses and vice versa.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to multiple parallel lookups using a pool of shared memories by proper configuration of interconnection networks. The number of shared memories reserved for each lookup is reconfigurable based on the memory capacity needed by that lookup. The shared memories are grouped into homogeneous tiles. Each lookup is allocated a set of tiles based on the memory capacity needed by that lookup. The tiles allocated for each lookup do not overlap with other lookups such that all lookups can be performed in parallel without collision. Each lookup is reconfigurable to be either hash-based or direct-access. The interconnection networks are programed based on how the tiles are allocated for each lookup.

Abstract: A new approach of systems and methods to support a hierarchical interrupt propagation scheme for efficient interrupt propagation and handling is proposed. The hierarchical interrupt propagation scheme organizes a plurality of slave interrupt handlers associated functional blocks in a chip in a hierarchy. When an exception or error condition occurs in a functional block, a slave interrupt handler associated with the functional block creates an interrupt packet as an interrupt notification and utilizes pre-existing input and output interfaces that have already been utilized for accessing registers of the functional block to transmit the created interrupt packet to a central interrupt handler through the hierarchy without running dedicated interconnect wires out of the functional block.
