Abstract: For a non-volatile memory that uses hard bit and a soft bit data in error correction operations, an on-the-fly compression scheme is used for the soft bit data. As soft bit data is transferred to a memory's input-output interface, the soft bit data is compressed prior to transmission to the an ECC engine memory controller, while hard bit data is transferred in un-compressed form.

One example provides a computing device comprising a logic subsystem and a storage subsystem comprising instructions executable by the logic subsystem to receive a recorded representation of hand motion determined relative to a virtual model aligned to a first instance of an object, receive image data corresponding to an environment, and recognize a second instance of the object in the environment. The instructions are further executable to align the virtual model to the second instance of the object, and output a parametric representation of hand motion for display relative to the virtual model as aligned to the second instance of the object, such that the parametric representation is spatially consistent with the recorded representation of hand motion relative to the virtual model as aligned to the first instance of the object.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to arranging a pick up and drop off locations between a driverless vehicle and a passenger. As an example, a method of doing so may include receiving a request for a vehicle from a client computing device, wherein the request identifies a first location. Pre-stored map information and the first location are used to identify a recommended point according to a set of heuristics. Each heuristic of the set of heuristics has a ranking such that the recommended point corresponds to a location that satisfies at least one of the heuristics having a first rank and such that no other location satisfies any other heuristic of the set of heuristics having a higher rank than the first rank. The pre-stored map information identifying a plurality of pre-determined locations for the vehicle to stop, and the recommended point is one of the plurality of pre-determined locations.

Abstract: Multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are operated by a host platform by configuring the AUVs with intermediate nodes (such as unmanned surface vehicles (USVs)) so as to allow the host platform to manage multiple AUVs. The intermediate nodes act as a relay for communications between the host platform and the AUVs allowing the host platform to scale to higher numbers of vehicles thus simultaneously operating the entire fleet of AUVs. The AUVs may provide underwater mapping data. The host platform may be stationary. The host platform may communicate with the intermediate nodes by satellite.

Abstract: An overlay network system includes multiple point-of-presence (POP) devices each including a path finding component and corresponding telemetry component, agent component, and routing daemon. The telemetry component generates latency measurements for the POP on which it is disposed. A centralized billboard service provides border gateway protocol (BGP) announcements and point-of-presence (POP) peering decisions to each of the agent components. On each of the POPs, the path finding component and corresponding telemetry component, agent component, and routing daemon cooperate to transform the BGP announcements, peering decisions, and latency measurements into routing tables and link selections for packet streams routed through the POPs.

Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for providing search results automatically to a user of a computing device. A spoken input provided by a user to a computing device is received. The spoken input is transmitted to a computer server system that is remote from the computing device. Search result information that is responsive to the spoken input is receiving by the computing device and in response to the transmitted spoken input. An alert is provided to the user that the device will connect the user to a target of the search result information if the user does not intervene to stop the connecting of the user. The user is connected to the target of the search result information based on a determination that the user has not intervened to stop the connecting of the user.

Abstract: A coolant flow control valve (CFCV) which includes an actuator having a microcontroller which drives an electric motor, such as a brushless DC motor. The motor drives a gear train, and the gear train drives a valve. The motor and gear train are used to rotate the valve to one or more positions, and thus direct coolant (passing through the valve) between ports. The valve is rotated to different positions to create various flow paths, such that coolant is directed between the different flow paths. The valve is a rotor having three different channels. The CFCV may also include a compound valve, where two valves are connected to and driven by one actuator. The valves may be of different shapes to accommodate inlet and outlet ports of various configurations.
