Patent number: 10802749Abstract: A method commences upon accessing a set of data items that describe computing nodes to be organized into failure-tolerant configuration. The failure-tolerant configuration is characterized by system availability characteristics such as a replication factor and such as a hierarchical distribution of computing nodes. Characteristics of the topology include boundaries that define two or more hierarchically-related availability domain levels. Computing nodes are situated within these boundaries. Instances of a target hierarchical availability domain level are sorted, and instances of a hierarchically lower availability domain level are also sorted to form a multi-level sort order of computing nodes. Computing entities are mapped onto the computing nodes by observing the multi-level sort order.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2019Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Nutanix, Inc.Inventors: Mohammad Mahmood, Anoop Menon, Ashwin Thennaram Vakkayil, Sandeep Kumar Madanala, Shubham Shukla, Chern Yih Cheah

Patent number: 9983621Abstract: A power storage unit (e.g., a battery) may replace the structural components that support the display of an electronic device. The power storage unit may be adhered to the back surface of the display to provide structural support and to allow for bend or flex of the display. A self-healing layer may prevent or inhibit leaking of materials from within the power storage unit if the power storage unit is cracked or pierced. Alternatively, the power storage unit may be built on a flexible circuit that is associated with the display of the electronic device, where the flexible circuit/power storage unit may be folded around the display and affixed to the back surface of the display. The power storage unit may also be built on substrate associated with the back surface of the display. These configurations may cause a significant reduction in the depth or thickness of the electronic device.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2015Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Anoop Menon, James Robert Lim, Yuting Yeh

Patent number: 9606264Abstract: An electronic device includes a display for rendering content. The display may include a protective sheet that is located between an image-displaying component and a liquid optically clear adhesive (LOCA) that adheres another component layered atop the display, such as a front light, a touch sensor or a cover layer. In some cases, the protective sheet may be a polymer sheet coated with a layer of ceramic material that prevents migration of a reactive species, such as a photoinitiator, between the protective sheet and the LOCA. Alternatively, a plasma treatment, a UV-light-ozone treatment, or a thermal treatment may be applied to the protective sheet to remove material including the reactive species and/or form a barrier layer to prevent migration of the reactive species. Still alternatively, the protective sheet may be a thin flexible glass sheet that does not include constituents that interact with the LOCA.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2013Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Anoop Menon, Chin Siong Khor, Robert Waverly Zehner
