Example ISA may comprise assembly-language-like instructions that may be executed by the secondary processor for configuring one or more stimulation engines (SEs) to cause stimulation of select electrode sets of a lead system based on one or more pulse definitions and one or more timing definitions corresponding to a therapy program selection effectuated by a user at an external device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assessing whether mobile deposit processing engines meet specified standards for mobile deposit of financial documents. A mobile deposit processing engine (MDE) is evaluated to determine if it can perform technical capabilities for improving the quality of and extracting content from an image of a financial document. A verification process then begins, where the MDE performs the image quality enhancements and text extraction steps on sets of images from a test deck. The results of the processing of the test deck are then evaluated by comparing confidence levels with thresholds to determine if each set of images should be accepted or rejected. Further analysis determines whether any of the sets of images were falsely accepted or rejected in error. An overall error rate is then compared with minimum accuracy criteria, and if the criteria are met, the MDE meets the standard for mobile deposit.

Abstract: This disclosure relates scan chain stitching. In one example, scan chain elements from a scan chain element space can be received for a scan chain partition. The scan chain elements can be grouped based on scan chain element grouping criteria to form scan chain groups. Scan chain data identifying a number of scan chains for the scan chain partition can be received. The scan chains can be scan chain balanced across the scan chain groups to assign each scan chain to one of the scan chain groups. The scan chain elements associated with each scan chain of the scan chains can be scan chain element balanced. Scan chain elements for each associated scan chain can be connected to form a scan chain data test path during a generation of scan chain circuitry in response to the scan chain element balancing.

Abstract: A distributed data storage system comprises features for integration with application orchestrators such as Kubernetes, and includes a proprietary Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver. Features include setting snapshot scheduling and retention policies, and a “container data mover” that replicates data from a source to a distinct destination distributed data storage system. The migration may be configured one-to-one, one-to-many, unidirectional, and/or bi-directional. Metadata-based snapshots and metadata-based changed block tracking identify payload data to move from source to destination within application orchestrator frameworks at both ends. Payload data is migrated from source to destination using different techniques than those used for migrating metadata, e.g., kernel-to-kernel for copying payload data versus ordinary metadata writes. An illustrative barrier logic ensures that the migration follows a controlled progression of operations.

Abstract: An exercise device includes a resistance unit having a connecting gear. It further includes a cable. It further includes an arm that routes the cable to an actuator. The arm is rotatable relative to the resistance unit about the connecting gear, the arm having a central axis. The arm includes a control that mechanically disengages a locking mechanism from the connecting gear. The control is activated by an activation force substantially directed either toward the central axis of the arm, along a length of the arm, or about the central axis. The activation force is mechanically converted into linear force along the arm that disengages the locking mechanism from the connecting gear.

Abstract: An illustrative data storage management system uses a control layer that controls information content presented to users and ensures information privacy between diverse tenants and/or resellers who share the system. The system populates a relationship database as transactions roll in (intake processing), and uses information in the relationship database later when processing responses (output processing). The relationship database comprises associations between e.g., a company ID and any number of entities that were created by or on behalf of the company or that are related to the company's service in the system. The control layer parses raw results that are responsive to requests for information and prevents others' information from being included in the responsive message(s). The techniques disclosed herein are not limited to shared systems managed by service providers, and may be implemented in fully owned and operated systems to add security and privacy among diverse users and/or departments.

Abstract: Mobile apparatus (e.g., robotic systems and mobile vehicles) use one or more cameras fixed to the apparatus so that the cameras move when the mobile apparatus moves. The cameras acquire images of the world space in which the apparatus operates, and the images are processed to develop information about objects sharing the world space with the mobile apparatus. This information permits a control system to direct the apparatus to interact with (or avoid) the objects.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a system that determines driving performance by a vehicle operator for simulated driving of a simulated vehicle in a simulation engine. Individual vehicle event scenarios correspond to vehicle events. Individual simulation scenarios correspond to individual vehicle event scenarios.

One or more metrics quantify the performance of the vehicle operator based on simulated results.

Abstract: A microprocessor includes a branch target buffer (BTB). Each BTB entry holds a tag based on at least a portion of a virtual address of a block of instructions previously fetched from a physically-indexed physically-tagged set associative instruction cache using a physical address that is a translation of the virtual address, a translated address bit portion of a set index of an instruction cache entry from which the instruction block was previously fetched, and a way number of the instruction cache entry from which the instruction block was previously fetched. In response to a BTB hit based on a fetch virtual address, the BTB provides a translated address bit portion of a predicted set index that is the translated address bit portion of the set index from the hit on BTB entry and a predicted way number that is the way number from the hit on BTB entry.

Abstract: A deduplicated storage system is provided according to certain embodiments that uses one or more mechanisms to update the deduplication database and remove records corresponding to data blocks that have been or will be erased from the secondary copies, without using or tracking reference counting values. Some embodiments described herein use a secondary table to identify the corresponding records from the primary table that can be removed and/or moved to another table for storing “zero-reference” data blocks. In other embodiments, the system will then traverse the “zero-reference” table and remove those primary data blocks from secondary storage devices.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic enrollment and identity verification based upon processing a captured image of a document are disclosed herein. Various embodiments enable, for example, a user to enroll in a particular service by taking a photograph of a particular document (e.g., his driver license) with a mobile device. One or more algorithms can then extract relevant data from the captured image. The extracted data (e.g., the person's name, gender, date of birth, height, weight, etc.) can then be used to automatically populate various fields of an enrollment application, thereby reducing the amount of information that the user has to manually input into his mobile device in order to complete the enrollment process. In some embodiments, a set of internal and/or external checks can be run against the data to ensure that the data is valid, has been read correctly, and is consistent with other data.
