Abstract: Polyolefins having the same or different functional groups covalently bound to the polyolefin, such as polyolefins having hindered phenol groups bound thereto, can be prepared by from a maleic anhydride modified polyolefin, with or without a coupling agent, and a hindered phenol reagent under heat, e.g., by heating the components to at least about 170° C., such as by reactive extrusion. A polyolefin having hindered phenol groups can be added to the components as a stabilizer prior to or during reacting the components together under heat.

Abstract: Address translation is performed to translate a virtual address targeted by a memory request (e.g., a load or memory request for data or an instruction) to a physical address. This translation is performed using an address translation buffer, e.g., a translation lookaside buffer (TLB). One or more actions are taken to reduce data access latencies for memory requests in the event of a TLB miss where the virtual address to physical address translation is not in the TLB. Examples of actions that are performed in various implementations in response to a TLB miss include bypassing level 1 (L1) and level 2 (L2) caches in the memory system, and speculatively sending the memory request to the L2 cache while checking whether the memory request is satisfied by the L1 cache.

Abstract: A universal chemical processor (UCP) including a reactor vessel with a main chamber, comprises inlets for feedstock, a fluidizing medium and reactants. The UCP further includes a reactive X-ray chemical processor (RXCP) having a large area hollow cylindrical cold cathode in the main chamber, a grid positioned concentrically with respect to the cathode, and an anode positioned concentrically with respect to the cathode and grid. In operation, when activated, the cathode of the RXCP emits electrodes onto the anode, which then emits X-rays into a radiation zone within the main chamber capable of ionizing feedstock and reactants, inducing chemical reactions, and sterilizing and decomposing organic materials within the radiation zone, and wherein, a fluidized bed is supported in the main chamber when the fluidizing medium and feedstock are supplied. The RXCP and the fluidized bed portions can be operated separately or in conjunction to achieve unanticipated results.

Abstract: Systems and techniques provide for low-latency, full-frequency noise filtering of images through the use of an image-scaling-based filtering technique, or “multiscale filtering technique”, that can provide filtering for low, medium, and/or high frequencies for one or more components of an image, such that the different resolution scales at each level of the multiscale filtering technique provides a larger receptive field for a denoising process employed at each level than a conventional denoising framework. This multiscale filtering includes receiving an input image to be filtered and then performing a multiscale filtering process in which an input image is, at different resolution scales, denoised, downscaled, upscaled, and fused with a result of a lower resolution scale, to generate a filtered image. This may include temporarily buffering intermediate image data for some of the resolution scales at a memory using direct memory access (DMA) operations.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe creating multiple packet fragments from a large data chunk that, for example, exceeds a maximum transmission unit (MTU) supported by a network. In one embodiment, a network interface controller or card (NIC) receives a direct memory access (DMA) from a connected host to transmit an IP packet or data using remote direct memory access (RDMA) technologies. The NIC can evaluate the data chunk associated with the DMA request and determine whether it exceeds the MTU for the network. Assuming it does, the NIC determines how many fragments to divide the data chunk into, and can fragment any portion of the data at flexible packet/payload offsets. The NIC can then retrieve the data chunk from host memory fragment-by-fragment, rather than reading the data chunk all at once, generating headers for the fragments, and then transmit them as packet fragments.
