  • Publication number: 20240031936
    Abstract: A system for 5G MICO mode operation of a vehicle during an ignition off mode includes a telematics unit and a telematics communication mode controller. The controller monitors energy consumption by the telematics unit and estimates a total energy consumption of the telematics unit through a time period. The controller further compares the total energy consumption to a first threshold energy consumption and a second threshold energy consumption and, when the total energy consumption is less than the first threshold energy consumption, operates the telematics unit in a first mode including unrestricted communication. The telematics communication mode controller, when the total energy consumption is between the first threshold energy consumption and the second threshold energy consumption, operates the telematics unit in a second MICO mode and, when the total energy consumption is greater than the second threshold energy consumption, deactivates communications by the telematics unit.

  • Publication number: 20240031369
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a network ingress filter based on both a customer's route object and recent traffic data for the customer. In examples, even though a customer of a provider network may have many routing prefixes in its route object, the customer may genuinely generate traffic from only a very small percentage of such prefixes. Accordingly, a combination of a system to generate all the prefixes based on a route object, along with the results of collected traffic data, may be used to generate a much smaller ingress filter. In examples, this filter may comprise an intersection of the prefixes generated by the customer's route object and the prefixes that have been actively generating traffic on the inbound interface of the router (or other provider edge system). This results in a smaller ingress filter that can be reliably configured on the provider edge system.

  • Patent number: 11880865
    Abstract: A computing system is configured to analyze historic data generated by an optimization system to provide recommended weightings for placement of creatives on publisher's pages. The weightings may be generated by providing forecasting the likelihood that a particular creative will lead to greater conversion or revenue compared to other creatives. The creatives may be grouped into one or more phases based on the amount of statistical data available for analyzing the particular creatives such that new creatives are given sufficient weighting to receive impressions despite the lack of historical data for a creative. Performance of placed creatives may be tracked by the passing of URLs with information attached to identify the particular creative and placement.

  • Patent number: 11881271
    Abstract: To save power during a read process, NAND strings of each sub-block of a block have independently controlled source side select lines connected to source side select gates and drain side select lines connected to drain side select gates so that NAND strings of unselected sub-blocks can float and not draw current. To prevent read disturb in NAND strings of unselected sub-blocks, after all word lines are raised to a pass gate voltage, unselected word lines nearby the selected word line are lowered to respective intermediate voltages while lowering the voltage on the selected word line in order to achieve a channel potential gradient in the floated NAND strings of the unselected sub-blocks that does not result in read disturb. Subsequently, the selected word line is raised to the appropriate read compare voltage so the selected memory cells can be sensed.

  • Patent number: 11881315
    Abstract: A sensor-based leading indicator management ecosystem is described. Sensor data associated with the individual, possibly within a Personal Area Network (PAN) and related to the healthcare of the individual, is compiled and converted to a one or more sets of leading indicators with respect to one or more possible future healthcare actions. Leading indicators may then be compiled into one or more condition state vectors that represent encoded inputs into one or more trained action prediction agents. The trained action prediction agents then generate, possibly in real-time or based on time-series data, predicted actions that may be required at a predicted point-of-care or a moment-of-care. Further, action prediction agents may be context or domain specific.
