  • Patent number: 10298435
    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to link state change detection and notification within a server with embedded or directly integrated network switch. In a server configuration in which there is no longer a distinct separation between a network switch and a network interface card (NIC), the server can no longer immediately detect a change in the link state of any of the switch's ports. This can lead to connection failure. A Link State Policy Table is thus implemented within the embedded or integrated switch, capable of changing the NIC link state according to one or more pre-defined or user-defined policy settings. The server is then notified of the change in the NIC link state, and can release an old IP address or request a new IP address accordingly.

  • Patent number: 10217218
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method converts two images to a transform representation in a transform domain. For each spatial position, the method examines coefficients representing a neighborhood of the spatial position that is spatially the same across each of the two images. The method calculates a first vector in the transform domain based on first coefficients representing the spatial position, the first vector representing change from a first to second image of the two images describing deformation. The method modifies the first vector to create a second vector in the transform domain representing amplified movement at the spatial position between the first and second images. The method calculates second coefficients based on the second vector of the transform domain. From the second coefficients, the method generates an output image showing motion amplified according to the second vector for each spatial position between the first and second images.
