Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is system and method for use with software application development environments, for determining attribution associated with licensed software code. The system can receive as input an indication of a source application codebase for a software application, determine dependencies on third-party modules, libraries, or other software code, and output associated license attributions for that codebase. Optionally, the system can combine and/or de-duplicate multiple sets of attributions associated with a source application codebase, or generate a set of differences between two versions of attributions, to illustrate changes between the versions. In accordance with an embodiment, if the system detects potential licensing issues associated with the use of third-party modules, libraries, or other software code, then an appropriate notification can be generated.

Abstract: A magnetic field sensor includes a sensor and a processing circuit. The sensor is designed to generate on the basis of a varying magnetic field an oscillation signal that fluctuates around a mean value. The processing circuit is designed to generate an output signal on the basis of the oscillation signal. The processing circuit is designed, in a high-resolution mode different than a low-resolution mode, in each case to generate a mean value crossing pulse in the output signal when the oscillation signal attains the mean value, and to generate in each case a limit value crossing pulse in the output signal when the oscillation signal attains at least one limit value different than the mean value. A pulse width of at least either the mean value crossing pulse or the limit value crossing pulse is set to indicate that the magnetic field sensor is operating in the high-resolution mode.

Abstract: A method for processing an audio signal in accordance with a room impulse response is described. The audio signal is separately processed with an early part and a late reverberation of the room impulse response, and the processed early part of the audio signal and the reverberated signal are combined. A transition from the early part to the late reverberation in the room impulse response is reached when a correlation measure reaches a threshold, the threshold being set dependent on the correlation measure for a selected one of the early reflections in the early part of the room impulse response.
