Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure control aging of a signal path in an idle mode to mitigate aging. In one example, an input of the signal path is alternately parked low and high over multiple idle periods to balance the aging of devices (e.g., transistors) in the signal path. In another example, a clock signal (e.g., a clock signal with a low frequency) is input to the signal path during idle periods to balance the aging of devices (e.g., transistors) in the signal path. In another example, the input of the signal path is parked high or low during each idle period based on an aging pattern.

Abstract: A system and method for orchestrating private software as a service (private SaaS) in an external hosting environment. The system and method provide a way to orchestrate software products or components in an external hosting environment as a private SaaS offering without need for additional network access or credentials to access remote environment. The system uses a set of products managing and operating modules to deploy and manage software products in remote environments. Further, the system employs a set of telemetry agents to retrieve fine grained health information of software products under management. The system uses the health telemetry signals to determine the health of remotely managed software products and to take remediation actions if required. Such actions to remediate are managed using product managing and operating modules. Usage of product managing, operating and telemetry modules on remote external environment eliminates need for network access or account credentials for remote environment.

Abstract: Systems and methods for making a cross-site storage solution resilient towards mediator unavailability are provided. According to one embodiment, a stretched storage system is operable to bring a mediator associated with a primary and secondary distributed storage system back into the role of an arbitrator for peered consistency groups (CGs). A mediator reseed status indicator is maintained for multiple CGs to identify when the mediator's status information for a CG is stale. When the mediator becomes available and a local CG is identified as the subject of a mediator reseed process, the master node of the primary that hosts a master copy of a dataset for the local CG performs the reseed process, including: (i) causing relationship status information for the local CG to be updated on the mediator to the current state maintained by the primary; and (ii) resetting the mediator reseed status indicator.

Abstract: Techniques for ensuring symmetric forwarding between disparate networks. The techniques may include receiving a gateway preference order associated with a route advertised by an edge node, the edge node associated with a first network. The techniques may also include determining, based at least in part on the gateway preference order, that a gateway node is a more preferred gateway for the route than another gateway node, the gateway node configured to facilitate communications between the first network and a second network. In some examples, the techniques may also include converting the gateway preference order into a metric associated with an IP routing protocol that is in use in the second network. In some examples, the route including the metric may be distributed within the second network such that the gateway node is the more preferred gateway for return traffic of the route.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a first node of a node cluster in a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), traffic from a wide area network (WAN), assigning, by the first node of the node cluster, flow ownership of the traffic to the first node, and communicating, by the first node of the node cluster, the traffic to a local area network (LAN). The method also includes receiving, by the first node of the node cluster, return traffic from a second node of the node cluster and detecting, by the first node of the node cluster, a diversion of the return traffic. The method further includes relinquishing, by the first node of the node cluster, the flow ownership and assigning, by the first node of the node cluster, the flow ownership to the second node of the node cluster.

Abstract: The disclosed method is performed by a cloud system for changing a registration of a network access device. The method includes initiating a change of a registration of a network access device. The registration is stored at a cloud system and indicates ownership of the network access device by a first user.

Abstract: A head up display (HUD) with improved resistance to sunload for use in a vehicle comprising an image generating device, an LCD assembly, an optical bonding assembly, and a fold mirror, with specific design countermeasures to combat damage caused to an LCD by heat from sunlight. These include an OB glass and cold mirror film (CMF) as components of the optical bonding assembly, a hot mirror coating and a polarized film as components of the LCD assembly, and a cold mirror coating on the fold mirror. When sunlight enters the HUD, the cold mirror coating reflects only visible light towards the LCD. The hot mirror coating reflects infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths of light away from the LCD. The polarized film cuts p-polarized light. The OB glass and CMF increase the specific heat of the HUD. The HUD thereby reduces sunload that would otherwise damage the LCD due to heat stress.

Abstract: A local dimming system for a head up display (HUD) according to the present invention comprises a light array, a Fresnel lens array, a lenticular lens system, and a liquid crystal display (LCD). The Fresnel lens array is operatively associated with the light array to provide a collimated backlight output to produce an image on the LCD. The Fresnel lens array focuses light from the light array while reflecting stray light, eliminating light bleed and reducing or eliminating a display-boundary or “postcard effect.” The Fresnel lens array is compact to enable HUD packaging necessary to configure the HUD for use in vehicles, while also removing the need for reflectors which create shadows on the LCD.
