Patent number: 10853162Abstract: A lightweight always-on monitoring, collecting, diagnosing, and correcting utility operates in an enhanced storage manager that manages a data storage management system. The always-on utility provides a comprehensive and pro-active approach, which is intended to reduce, if not altogether eliminate, the need for after-the-fact diagnostics. The always-on utility also enforces so-called best practices and other heuristics, which include pro-actively activating certain database settings that are not enabled by default; manipulating certain aspects of the database to improve performance; and reporting aspects that are outside best-practice parameters to the trouble report system so that system administrators and/or developers may intervene before a catastrophic failure occurs. In some cases, the best-practice parameters represent heuristics designed by the present inventors to improve the performance and general health of the management database.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2018Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Commvault Systems, Inc.Inventors: Ganesh Haridas, Sundar Narasimman, Karthik Suriyanarayanan, Gunassekaran A S, Michael Frank Klose

Patent number: 10856016Abstract: Disparate live output stream manifests are generated based on user selection. When current media programming content in an existing first disparate live media output stream is streamed on a media player, one or more processors determine a set of alternate live input streams and/or a pre-encoded media assets, and associated alternate live media output manifests and/or pre-encoded media asset manifests, respectively, based on one or more parameters and metadata associated with the existing first disparate live media output stream. Based on an indicator in an existing first disparate live media output stream manifest, alternate content options are transmitted to the media player. A response is received corresponding to a selection of an alternate live input stream and/or a pre-encoded media asset, and an alternate live input stream manifest and/or pre-encoded media asset manifest is inserted into the existing first disparate live media output stream manifest as next programming media content.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2018Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: TURNER BROADCASTING SYSTEM, INC.Inventors: Donald Jude Loheide, Nishith Kumar Sinha, Nicolas Paul Webb

Patent number: 10852800Abstract: A method includes programming an FPGA based controller of a master blade with a power scheme. The master blade receives a first power management signal from the master blade and slave blades. The master blade transmits a second power management signal to itself and to the slave blades responsive to the first power management signal. The master blade receives a third power management signal from itself and the slave blades. The power scheme controls an order and delay in which the second power management signal is transmitted to the first master blade and the slave blades. The power scheme controls an order and delay in which the third power management signal is received from the master blade and the slave blades. The system can be expanded by connecting the master blades to a grand master blade and multiple grand master blades to a great grand master blade.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2019Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Cadence Design Systems, Inc.Inventors: Duc Dang, Ty Doan, Pinchas Herman, Zhanhe Shi

Patent number: 10853074Abstract: A pipelined run-to-completion processor includes no instruction counter and only fetches instructions either: as a result of being prompted from the outside by an input data value and/or an initial fetch information value, or as a result of execution of a fetch instruction. Initially the processor is not clocking. An incoming value kick-starts the processor to start clocking and to fetch a block of instructions from a section of code in a table. The input data value and/or the initial fetch information value determines the section and table from which the block is fetched. A LUT converts a table number in the initial fetch information value into a base address where the table is found. Fetch instructions at the ends of sections of code cause program execution to jump from section to section. A finished instruction causes an output data value to be output and stops clocking of the processor.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2014Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Netronome Systems, Inc.Inventor: Gavin J. Stark

Patent number: 10855633Abstract: A method of messaging control is implemented in a plant wide monitoring apparatus. A computer based framework infrastructure communicates with monitoring applications throughout the plant that are implemented on computers, monitors and computer-based applications. Sensors are placed on machinery and monitors receive sensor signals and generate event signals in response to defined physical occurrences, such as when vibration in a machine is exceeding a defined limit or a sensor is failing. A messaging application in the framework infrastructure generates messages corresponding to the event signals. The messages are transmitted to users based on send rules and suppression rules, which are user configurable. The send rules identify messages to be sent or not sent to a particular user based on characteristics of event signals. The suppression rules prevent the transmission of a message based on both the content of a particular event signal plus an external factor, such as a prior event signal.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2015Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Computational Systems, Inc.Inventors: Christopher G.

Patent number: 10853176Abstract: A data storage system according to certain aspects can share a single snapshot for multiple applications and/or agents. For example, the data storage system can receive snapshot commands from multiple applications and/or agents, and can group them for a single snapshot (e.g., based on time of receipt of the snapshot commands). Data associated with the multiple applications and/or agents may reside on a single LUN or volume. The data storage system can take a single snapshot of the LUN or volume, and generate metadata regarding which portion of the snapshot is related to which application. The single snapshot can be stored in one or more secondary storage devices. The single snapshot may be partitioned into portions relating to different applications and stored separately.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2018Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Commvault Systems, Inc.Inventors: Paramasivam Kumarasamy, Brahmaiah Vallabhaneni, Prashanth Nagabhushana Bangalore, Vimal Kumar Nallathambi, Dmitriy Borisovich Zakharkin

Patent number: 10852354Abstract: A computer executable tool analyzes Boolean logic in a gate-level netlist with simulated values and efficiently determines whether a subset of the netlist produces real Xs or not. If whether the netlist produces real Xs or not cannot be quickly determined, further formal analysis needs to be performed, and this step can be time-consuming. By quickly determining whether real Xs are produced, the use of time-consuming formal methods can be reduced, thus reducing X-pessimism analysis time.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2019Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Avery Design Systems, Inc.Inventor: Kai-Hui Chang
