Patent number: 10341648Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for performing automated analysis of frame-over-frame pixel changes in recorded video of the display output of a computing device to determine whether the computing device presented an animated buffering indicator or other animated problem indicator. A system may be configured to detect motion by determining frame-over-frame pixel intensity changes at various pixel locations across a number of frames, then to determine whether the pixel locations that suggest motion (such as those pixel locations that had sufficient intensity change when accounting for potential noise in the video data) are concentrated in an area of the screen in which problem indicators are expected to be displayed. The system may then determine whether the shape of the pixel locations that indicated sufficient motion match an expected shape or path of motion for a given class of problem indictors.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2017Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Spencer Patrick Fonte, Sean James Amos, Michael Aaron Fox

Patent number: 7989337Abstract: A method and structure are provided for implementing vertical airgap structures between chip metal layers. A first metal layer is formed. A first layer of silicon dioxide dielectric is deposited onto the first metal layer. A vertical air gap is etched from the first layer of silicon dioxide dielectric above the first metal layer. A second layer of silicon dioxide dielectric is deposited and the vertical air gap is sealed. A next trace layer is etched from the second layer of silicon dioxide dielectric and a via opening is etched from the second and first layers of silicon dioxide dielectric. Then metal is deposited into the next trace layer and metal is deposited into the via opening.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2009Date of Patent: August 2, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Axel Aguado Granados, Benjamin Aaron Fox, Nathaniel James Gibbs, Andrew Benson Maki, Trevor Joseph Timpane

Patent number: 7979824Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus and program product provide automated processes for determining the most cost-effective use of airgaps in a microchip. The performance gains realized by using airgaps for a given net or layer may be calculated. These improvements may be paired to a monetary cost associated with implementing the applicable airgaps at that net/layer. The paired benefit and cost of the airgap scenario may be compared to other possible airgap uses at other layers/nets to determine which airgaps provide the best improvement for the lowest cost.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2008Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Axel Aguado Granados, Benjamin Aaron Fox, Nathaniel James Gibbs, Andrew Benson Maki, Trevor Joseph Timpane
