  • Publication number: 20210011539
    Abstract: A method for reducing processing power of a data processing hardware executing one or more applications is provided. The method includes receiving communication messages and identifying a first application outputting a first message based on at least one communication message. The first application is associated with a first priority value. The method includes determining a group of high-priority applications where each application has a priority value being higher than or equal to the first priority value and determining a group of low-priority applications where each application has a priority value being lower than the first priority value. The method includes discarding one or more communication messages that are not relied on by the group of high-priority applications for a predefined period of time. The method may also include sending, to the group of low-priority applications, instructions causing the one or more applications of the low-priority group to stop executing.

  • Publication number: 20210011770
    Abstract: A reconfigurable data processor comprises an array of configurable units configurable to allocate a plurality of sets of configurable units in the array to implement respective execution fragments of the data processing operation. Quiesce logic is coupled to configurable units in the array, configurable to respond to a quiesce control signal to quiesce the sets of configurable units in the array on quiesce boundaries of the respective execution fragments, and to forward quiesce ready signals for the respective execution fragments when the corresponding sets of processing units are ready. An array quiesce controller distributes the quiesce control signal to configurable units in the array, and receives quiesce ready signals for the respective execution fragments from the quiesce logic.

  • Patent number: 10890106
    Abstract: The invention involves a system and method for providing a liquid fuel or a liquid and gaseous fuel to a diesel or Otto cycle engine for operation of the engine. The system includes a primary electronic control module (ECM), which monitors engine sensors and contains a first three-dimensional fuel map for the liquid fuel. A second ECM is connected for bi-directional transfer of information to the first ECM, the second ECM contains a second three-dimensional fuel map for delivery of the gaseous fuel through a secondary gaseous fuel injection assembly. The bi-directional communication between the two ECMs while monitoring the engine sensors allows both ECMs to “learn” an efficient fuel map for delivery of both fuels in the same cycle for improved efficiency, reduction in slip and lower emissions.

  • Patent number: 10892978
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for multi-level classification of data traffic flows based on information in a first data packet for a data traffic flow. In exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, a key can be generated to track data traffic flows by application names and data packet information or properties. Based on these keys, patterns can be discerned to infer data traffic information based on only the information in a first data packet. The determined patterns can be used to predict classifications of future traffic flows with similar key information. In this way, data traffic flows can be classified and steered in a network based on limited information available in a first data packet.

  • Patent number: 10890533
    Abstract: Spectroscopic chemical analysis methods and apparatus are disclosed which employ deep ultraviolet (e.g. in the 200 nm to 300 nm spectral range) electron beam pumped wide bandgap semiconductor lasers, incoherent wide bandgap semiconductor light emitting devices, and hollow cathode metal ion lasers to perform non-contact, non-invasive detection of unknown chemical analytes. These deep ultraviolet sources enable dramatic size, weight and power consumption reductions of chemical analysis instruments. In some embodiments, Raman spectroscopic detection methods and apparatus use ultra-narrow-band angle tuning filters, acousto-optic tuning filters, and temperature tuned filters to enable ultra-miniature analyzers for chemical identification. In some embodiments Raman analysis is conducted along with photoluminescence spectroscopy (i.e. fluorescence and/or phosphorescence spectroscopy) to provide high levels of sensitivity and specificity in the same instrument.

  • Patent number: 10890415
    Abstract: Man portable weapons include integrated electronics that calculate orientation and movement in addition to providing that data to a user's heads-up displays (HUD) as well as to group and area networks. By passing data to a HUD, the user is able to see, virtually, the flight path, point of impact and other ballistic data as well as data representing the condition and performance of the weapon for any rounds fired. The HUD also displays the relative position of other members of the team, last known enemy area of operation and other useful parameters from the man portable weapons of the other team members through the network. The electronics may be integrated within the main components of any suitable man portable weapon in a non-intrusive way as to have no effect on the firing mechanism of the small arm when it is fully assembled.

  • Patent number: 10892637
    Abstract: A power supply covering both power sharing and power backup functions run in a more efficient and flexible way. The power supply adopts a power sharing converter coupled between a first bus terminal and a second bus terminal, so that if one of the bus terminals provides insufficient power, the other bus terminal kicks in by way of the power sharing converter to provide power support. In addition, a storage capacitor may also kick in to provide power support if one of the bus terminals provide insufficient power via or not via the power sharing converter.

  • Patent number: 10891893
    Abstract: A current controller for an output stage of light emitting diode (LED) driver circuitry includes a current source establishing a nominal amount of current available for each member of the set of channels. The nominal amount of current is based on, e.g., a desired brightness level. Pulse width modulation (PWM) circuitry is electrically coupled to the current source and is configured to control durations in which adjusted amounts of current are applied to corresponding members the set of LEDs. Compensation circuitry is electrically coupled to the current source and the PWM circuitry. The compensation circuitry includes a set of switching elements to adjust, for each corresponding member of the set of LEDs, the nominal amount of current and thereby provide to the PWM circuitry the adjusted amounts of current based on feedback representing one or both load impedance variations and parasitic conditions (LIVPC) and process, voltage and temperature (PVT) conditions.

  • Patent number: 10891304
    Abstract: Embodiments are described for distributed and scalable client-based storage management and microservices-based storage management, which can operate in combination. Embodiments distribute responsibilities and client-specific information needed for storage management jobs away from a central storage manager and its management database. New features and components minimize communications to/from the storage manager and ensure the integrity and synchronization of data being distributed. The management database at the storage manager retains its role as repository of information for the data storage management system as a whole, yet without being a bottleneck to storage operations. Improvements are implemented within the storage manager, through new functionality added to clients, and further through a new micro-server component interposed between storage manager and clients.

  • Patent number: 10891197
    Abstract: The illustrative systems and methods consolidate storage-array command channels into a media agent that executes outside the production environment. A “snapshot-control media agent” (“snap-MA”) is configured on a secondary storage computing device that operates apart from client computing devices. A “forwarder” media agent operates on each client computing device that uses the storage array, yet lacks command channels to the storage array. Likewise, a “forwarder” proxy media agent may operate without command channels to the storage array. No third-party libraries or storage-array-command devices are installed or needed on the host computing device. The forwarder media agent forwards any commands directed at the storage array to the snap-MA on the secondary storage computing device. The snap-MA receives and processes commands directed at the storage array that were forwarded by the forwarder media agents. Responses from the storage array are transmitted to the respective forwarder media agent.
