Abstract: Systems and methods are described that implement a tool chain which receives original software source code, analyzes the code and divides the code into modules that run optimally on the available heterogeneous resources. For example, the toolchain system segments original source code into code segments, and determine the specialized processor resource, such as a digital signal processing (DSP) processor, Field Programming Gate Array (FPGA), Graphical Processing Unit (GPU), and the like, that most optimally performs computations of the particular code segment. A parsing engine determines the processor of the heterogenous resources, based on a set of rules and/or a trained classifier (e.g., a trained machine learning model). New code segments can be generated that can be executed on the determined type of processor. Further, the system enables application programming interfaces (APIs) that can interface the new code segment with other generated code segments and/or some portions of the original code.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer-readable recording medium perform local client device data throttling in a wireless network. A network controller of a gateway device allocates a portion of a periodic allocation of data available from an ISP cycle to one or more client devices connected to the gateway device. The gateway device sets a threshold for each client device and monitors bandwidth data consumption for each of the client devices. When a particular client device reaches its assigned bandwidth data allotment, the gateway device throttles data to the client device until a new periodic allocation of data is available from the ISP. While a particular client device is throttled, when a guest device joins the network or a particular client device accesses a prestored URL address, the gateway device may reallocate allotted data from one client device to another as needed to maintain operation of the wireless network.

Abstract: A mass-flow throttle for highly accurate control of the gaseous supplies (fuel and/or air) to the combustion chambers for a large engine in response to instantaneous demand signals from the engine's ECM, especially for large (i.e., 30 liters or greater in size) spark-ignited internal combustion engines fueled by natural gas. With a unitary block assembly and a throttle blade driven by a non-articulated rotary actuator shaft, in combination with tight control circuitry including multiple pressure sensors as well as sensors for temperature and throttle position, the same basic throttle concepts are innovatively suited to be used for both MFG and MFA throttles in industrial applications, to achieve highly accurate mass-flow control even despite pressure fluctuations while operating in non-choked flow.

Abstract: A gesture based authentication system for an autonomous vehicle (AV) uses light detecting and ranging (lidar) to observe a user making a specific gesture and, in response to observing the gesture, authorizes the user to access the vehicle. The authentication system may first identify a human in the vicinity of the AV, and then compare a body position of the identified human to a model trained to determine if a human is performing the specific gesture. If the model determines that the identified human is performing the gesture, the AV authorizes the user to access the vehicle, e.g., to accept a delivery or to ride in the AV.
