  • Patent number: 10409577
    Abstract: Hybrid application delivery is described which utilizes both remote access and downloading of content over the network. When a user requests an application that is not locally available, a remoting session is first established to allow the user to begin using the application. While the user is accessing the remote session, a process is initiated to download the content of the application to the end user's device. This process may execute in the background while the user continues to use the application over the remote session. Once the process of downloading the content of the application is complete and the application is installed, a local session of the application is started and the user may switch to the local session. The system also synchronizes changes to user data made on the server during the remoting session with the end user's computing device.

  • Patent number: 10412145
    Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for network labeling in order to enhance real time data transfers. A network for a real time data transfer is identified and predictive models for network performance are compared against to determine if the network is suitable for the data transfer. If so, then the real time data transfer may be completed as expected. However, if the network is predicted to be unsuitable for transmission an alternate means for connection may be suggested. The alternate suggestion may include delaying the data transfer until the network is expected to be in better conditions, connecting to another access point in the network, or switching to another network entirely. During the data transfer, the quality of the network is monitored in order to update the predictive models for the network's quality. Identifiers for the network may be utilized to keep track of the networks.

  • Patent number: 10411005
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes exemplary configurations and arrangements for various intelligent diodes. The intelligent diodes of the present disclosure can be implemented as part of electrostatic discharge protection circuitry to protect other electronic circuitry from the flow of electricity caused by electrostatic discharge events. The electrostatic discharge protection circuitry dissipates one or more unwanted transient signals which result from the electrostatic discharge event. In some situations, some carrier electrons and/or carrier holes can flow from intelligent diodes of the present disclosure into a semiconductor substrate. The exemplary configurations and arrangements described herein include various regions designed collect these carrier electrons and/or carrier holes to reduce the likelihood these carrier electrons and/or carrier holes cause latch-up of the other electronic circuitry.

  • Patent number: 10407343
    Abstract: Red mud-based geopolymer compositions and methods of their preparation are described.

  • Patent number: 10411832
    Abstract: Disclosed are Ethernet physical layer devices (e.g., a transceiver, a receiver and a transmitter) with integrated physical coding and forward error correction sub-layers. Each physical layer device includes a physical coding sub-layer (PCS), a forward error correction sub-layer (FEC) and integration block(s). Each integration block halts, for some number of clock cycles, a data stream in portions of a data path (e.g., portions of a transmitter (TX) data path or portions a receiver (RX) data path) within the PCS and the FEC in order to compensate for processing of that data stream by a data processor (e.g., a code word mark (CWM) inserter or a CWM remover) contained in the portion of the data path within the FEC. Use of such integration block(s) eliminates the need for redundant components in the PCS and FEC, thereby reducing latency, costs and chip area consumption. Also disclosed are associated methods.
