Patent number: 11252115Abstract: A conversation interface system provides remote access to manufacturing operation information using plain language message exchange. A cloud-based conversation interface service is exposed to an instant messaging application, and receives plain language queries from via the instant messaging application's interface requesting information relating to one or more industrial systems. The cloud-based system synchronizes the queries to one or more on-premise conversation interface agent devices residing at one or more plant facilities. The on-premise agent devices translate the queries and apply the translated queries to local sources of manufacturing operation data. The on-premise agent devices then generate and return response messages based on the retrieved information, and the cloud-based system directs the response messages the originators of the queries via the instant messaging interface.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: ROCKWELL AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Jonathan Wise, Petr Ptacek, David Wayne Comeau, Nancy Lynn Burnham, Jonathan D.

Scrambling using different scrambling seeds for defect reduction and improved programming efficiency
Patent number: 11250913Abstract: Aspects of a storage device including a memory and a controller are provided which allow for efficient programming of cells on word lines using different scrambling seeds. The controller attempts to program cells of the memory by applying data scrambled using a first scrambling seed to the word line. If this attempt to program fails, the controller scrambles the data using a second, different scrambling seed and attempts to program the cells by applying the re-scrambled data to the word line. If this re-attempt also fails, the word line is listed. Then when the controller receives other data, the controller performs a final programming attempt with the other data scrambled using the second scrambling seed. If this further attempt fails, the controller identifies the block including the failed word line as a GBB. Thus, fewer GBBs may be incorrectly identified, reducing DPPM and improving memory yield of the storage device.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2020Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: WESTERN DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Sudipta Dutta, Amiya Banerjee -

Patent number: 11249790Abstract: Generally described, one or more aspects of the present application relate to an instance resource oversubscription service for scheduling a burst period for a running virtual machine instance based on a time window specified by a user of the virtual machine instance. For example, the instance resource oversubscription service can predict future resource usage and identify the appropriate timing and physical host machine for letting the user burst (e.g., temporarily use the virtual machine instance in a manner than consumes a higher amount of computing resources such as CPU cycles, memory, network bandwidth, etc.). In doing so, the instance resource oversubscription service may consider, for example, the historical and current resource utilization levels of the virtual machine instances running on a set of available physical host machines and the burst period scheduling requests from other users of the instance resource oversubscription service.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2020Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Diwakar Gupta, Alexey Gadalin, Ethan John Faust

Patent number: 11250892Abstract: Aspects of a storage device including a memory and a controller are provided which allow for reduction of current during program operations using pre-charge ramp rate control based on an inhibit bit line count acquired from data latches. When the inhibit bit line count is within a bit line count range, the controller pre-charges bit lines in memory at a first ramp rate to a first target voltage, and when the inhibit bit line count is outside the bit line count range, the controller pre-charges the bit lines at a second, faster ramp rate to a second, smaller target voltage. The inhibit bit line count may increase throughout a program operation, and the bit line count range may be configured for the middle of the program operation where current is typically high. Thus, a balance in power consumption and performance may be achieved during program operations using ramp rate control.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: WESTERN DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Yu-Chung Lien, Juan Lee, Huai-Yuan Tseng

Patent number: 11252097Abstract: Techniques for oscillatory complementary network property calibration of a network connection can be implemented by measuring a first network property (e.g., latency or bandwidth output) as a function of bandwidth input and performing statistical analysis to determine a correlation. If a non-zero correlation coefficient is detected, a second network property complementary to the first network property can be measured to determine a first value of the second network property. Likewise, the second network property can be measured as a function of bandwidth input to determine a second correlation which, if positive, may indicate how to determine a second value of the first network property. The first value and the second value can be utilized to determine a third value of a third network property (e.g., network latency and network capacity utilized to determine bandwidth-delay product).Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2018Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: James Morgan Selvidge, Stephen Daniel Vilke, Paul Hinks, Rudy Willis
