Abstract: A semiconductor device is formed where a conductive extension (e.g., a TS) electrically couples with a first structure (e.g., an S/D) of the semiconductor device, a dielectric is deposited at least on a surface of a second structure (e.g., a gate), where the surface is substantially parallel to a plane of fabrication of the semiconductor device. An insulator cap surrounds an exposed portion of the extension. An opening is formed in the insulator cap, and a first contact (e.g., a CA) is formed through the opening to electrically couple with the first structure. A second contact (e.g., a CB) is formed through an opening in the dielectric at a first portion of the surface and electrically couples with the second structure. The dielectric continues to cover a second portion of the surface, and a portion of the insulator cap is interposed between the first contact and the second contact.

Abstract: A pipeline system for time-series data forecasting using a distributed computing environment is disclosed herein. In one example, a pipeline for forecasting time series is generated. The pipeline represents a sequence of operations for processing the time series to produce modeling results such as forecasts of the time series. The pipeline includes a segmentation operation for categorizing the time series into multiple demand classes based on demand characteristics of the time series. The pipeline also includes multiple sub-pipelines corresponding to the multiple demand classes. Each of the sub-pipelines applies a model strategy to the time series in the corresponding demand class. The model strategy is selected from multiple candidate model strategies based on predetermined relationships between the demand classes and the candidate model strategies. The pipeline is executed to determine the modeling results for the time series.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing a cooperative security fabric (CSF) protocol are provided. According to one embodiment, a CSF of multiple network security devices (NSDs) deployed within a protected network is constructed in a form of a tree, having a root node, one or more intermediate nodes and one or more leaf nodes, based on hierarchical interconnections among the NSDs by determining a relative upstream or downstream relationship among each NSD. Backend daemons of the NSDs establish and maintain a bi-directional tunnel between each parent node within the CSF and its respective child nodes through which queries and replies are communicated and through which periodic keep-alive messages and responses are exchanged. Forward daemons of the NSDs enforce a CSF protocol that limits the issuance of query messages to those originated by an upstream node within the CSF and directed to a downstream node within the CSF.

Abstract: A method for establishing and using a pollutant emission scavenging forecasting (PESF) model to calculate a purgeable pollutant emission to dynamically control an emitted pollutant at any target concentration. The dynamic control considers the initial pollutant concentration and pollutant scavenging ability of atmosphere. The method further takes into account the constraint conditions specified by a user, and employs a dynamic emission correction system to quickly calculate an optimal pollutant emission scheme. If the emission is lower than minimum acceptable value for a current time instance (a moment), the method corrects the emission intensity before (prior to) this moment by changing the initial concentration at this time. This initial concentration is the final pollutant concentration of a prior moment. Since the method makes full use of the atmospheric pollutants scavenging ability, the dynamic emission control scheme can provide the most effective and lowest economic losses solution.

Abstract: Methods for forming a cut between interconnects and structures with cuts between interconnects. A layer is patterned to form first, second, and third features having a substantially parallel alignment with the second feature between the first feature and the third feature. A sacrificial layer is formed that is arranged between the first and second features and between the second and third features. The sacrificial layer is patterned to form a cut between the first and second features from which a portion of the sacrificial layer is fully removed and to form a cavity in a portion of the sacrificial layer between the second and third features. A dielectric layer is formed inside the cut between the first and second features. After depositing the section of the dielectric material and forming the dielectric layer, the sacrificial layer is removed.

Abstract: Described herein are embodiments related to one-direction error recovery flow (ERF) operations on memory components of memory systems. A processing device determines that data from a read operation is not successfully decoded because of a partial write of the data. The partial write results from a number of memory cells written as a first state and read as a second state. The processing device performs a one-direction ERF on the memory cells by monotonically adjusting a read voltage level for one or more re-read operations from a first discrete read voltage level towards a second read voltage level in a first direction until the data from the one or more re-read operations is successfully decoded. The first direction corresponds to an opposite direction of a state shift of the partial write. The processing device can also can determine a directional EBC and perform a refresh write if necessary.
