  • Patent number: 12124322
    Abstract: Techniques for access operation status signaling for memory systems are described. In some examples, a memory system may respond to access commands from a host system by performing access operations such as read or write operations. In accordance with examples as disclosed herein, a system may be configured to support access operation status signaling between a host system and a memory system, which may improve the ability of the system to adapt to various access scenarios, including when access operation completion is delayed. For example, when a memory system is performing an error recovery or media management operation, the memory system may indicate that the error recovery or media management operation is being performed or is otherwise ongoing. Such status signaling may indicate that the memory system is actively performing operations, which may be used to inhibit a reset or reinitialization by a host system.

  • Patent number: 12105668
    Abstract: The invention relates to system and methods for accessing transaction servers to obtain particular information related to the transaction processing. In particular, the system 10 is adapted to interact with the internal trace 14 of the CICS 12 for reading the trace entries generated by CICS 12 during transaction processing and written to the internal trace 14. The system 10 is adapted to interact with the internal trace 14 in such a manner that the performance of the transaction processing being conducted in the CICS is not negatively impacted. In accordance with an arrangement of the invention, there is provided a method (to be described at a later stage) for reading and interpreting the content of the internal trace in a period of time that is less than the period of time needed for an internal trace to become full and wrap losing the trace entries stored therein.

  • Patent number: 12093157
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to various systems and techniques that provide methods and systems for identifying log event for computing systems. For example, a computing device may receive a log event of an application, and determine a value representative of an inverse relationship between a frequency of the log event and a criticality of the log event. The computing device may initiate an action to address the event indicated by the log event based on a comparison between the determined value and a threshold.

  • Patent number: 12086035
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a recovery process with selective ordering and concurrent operations in order to recover from a failure. Representations of active log structures are rebuilt within memory according to ordering values assigned to I/O operations logged within the active log structures. Representation of certain active log structures may be concurrently rebuilt based upon the active log structures comprising I/O operations that are non-overlapping within a distributed file system, have no dependencies, relate to different services, and/or target independent files. Representation of stale log structures are concurrently rebuilt within memory. While rebuilding the log structures and executing the I/O operations, a key value map is concurrently rebuilt within the memory for locating data of the I/O operations. Concurrent operations during the recovery process reduces the time to complete the recovery process, and thus reduces client downtime during the recovery process.

  • Patent number: 11971803
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a safety monitor framework for a safety-critical computer vision (CV) application are disclosed. A system includes a safety-critical CV application, a safety monitor, and a CV accelerator engine. The safety monitor receives an input image, test data, and a CV graph from the safety-critical CV application. The safety monitor generates a modified image by adding additional objects outside of the input image. The safety monitor provides the modified image and CV graph to the CV accelerator which processes the modified image and provides outputs to the safety monitor. The safety monitor determines the likelihood of erroneous processing of the original input image by comparing the outputs for the additional objects with a known good result. The safety monitor complements the overall fault coverage of the CV accelerator engine and covers faults only observable at the level of the CV graph.

  • Patent number: 11973513
    Abstract: Examples described herein utilize multi-layer neural networks, such as multi-layer recurrent neural networks to estimate message probability compute data based on encoded data (e.g., data encoded using one or more encoding techniques). The neural networks and/or recurrent neural networks may have nonlinear mapping and distributed processing capabilities which may be advantageous in many systems employing a neural network or recurrent neural network to estimate message probability compute data for a message probability compute (MPC) decoder. In this manner, neural networks or recurrent neural networks described herein may be used to implement aspects of error correction coding (ECC) decoders, e.g., an MPC decoder that iteratively decodes encoded data.

  • Patent number: 11966320
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques for capturing data from devices to generate replays of sessions of a software application executed by the devices. The techniques use data obtained from the device to determine whether certain events in which a session replay is to be generated have occurred in a session of the software application. When occurrence of such an event is detected during the session of the software application, the techniques determine to trigger collection of session replay data. In this case, the session replay data may be stored and/or transmitted from the device for storage, and subsequently used to generate a session replay. If none of the events are detected, then session replay data may not be transmitted. Accordingly, the techniques can selectively allocate resources (e.g., compute, storage, and/or communication resources) for sessions in which events are detected.
