Abstract: In using silicone to control thermal runaway in a battery module for an electric vehicle, a mold is provided to hold a plurality of energy storage elements with spaces in between adjacent ones thereof. Substantially uncured silicone polymer mixture is injected into the mold to fill the spaces. During fill of the mold with the injected silicone polymer mixture, variation is introduced of one or more of: a ratio of constituents of the silicone polymer mixture being injected; at least one of a presence or absence of additive(s) in the injected silicone polymer mixture, type(s) of the additive(s) in the injected silicone polymer mixture, or concentrations of the additive(s) in the injected silicone polymer mixture; or mold temperature. Upon completion of the fill of the mold with the injected silicone polymer mixture, curing of the injected silicone polymer mixture is completed. Precise, fast cure of the silicone is achieved.

The system further receives a supply chain event associated with the supply chain financial orchestration flow. The system further determines whether the supply chain event is a task generating event.

Abstract: In accordance with the principles herein, a co-design approach for compute-in-memory inference for deep neural networks (DNN) is set forth. Multiplication-free function approximators are employed along with a co-adapted processing array and compute flow. Resulting methods, systems, devices, and algorithms in accordance with the principles herein overcome many deficiencies in the currently available in—methods, systems, devices, and algorithms (in-SRAM) DNN processing devices. Systems, devices, and algorithms constructed in accordance with the co-adapted implementation herein seamlessly extends to multi-bit precision weights, eliminates the need for DACs, and easily extends to higher vector-scale parallelism. Additionally, a SRAM-immersed successive approximation ADC (SA-ADC) can be constructed, where the parasitic capacitance of bit lines of SRAM array can be exploited as a capacitive DAC. The dominant area overhead in SA-ADC, due to its capacitive DAC, can allow low area implementation of within-SRAM SA-ADC.

Abstract: A policy engine validates one or more security tokens in an authenticated request using a sequence of partial policy validations. Multiple policies may be applied to the security token using the work product generated from each failed policy. The policy that succeeds in validating the security token has a portion of its work performed through previously-failed policies that did not complete successfully. In this manner, the validation of a policy is performed faster and more efficiently since the previous processing is not repeated whenever a new policy is applied.
