  • Patent number: 12204481
    Abstract: The following description is directed to a configurable logic platform. In one example, a configurable logic platform includes host logic and a reconfigurable logic region. The reconfigurable logic region can include logic blocks that are configurable to implement application logic. The host logic can be used for encapsulating the reconfigurable logic region. The host logic can include a host interface for communicating with a processor. The host logic can include a management function accessible via the host interface. The management function can be adapted to cause the reconfigurable logic region to be configured with the application logic in response to an authorized request from the host interface. The host logic can include a data path function accessible via the host interface. The data path function can include a layer for formatting data transfers between the host interface and the application logic.

  • Publication number: 20240232790
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are provided for processing items within an automated storage and retrieval device. A scanned machine-readable identifier associated with an item is received at an automated storage and retrieval device. A determination is made whether the machine-readable identifier that was scanned is a container identification (ID). The machine-readable identifier is identified based on pre-defined criteria when the machine-readable identifier is determined not to be a container ID. The machine-readable identifier is mapped to an existing order using stored order information. A container ID is created by the fulfillment system and passed back to the automated storage and retrieval device. The item is stored in the automated storage and retrieval device using the created container ID.

  • Publication number: 20240078877
    Abstract: A method includes outputting, on a GUI while a processor operates in a first operating state (OS), one or more spins of a reel set and determining whether a first running total of displayed symbols exceeds a respective first threshold of a first and/or second reward system. The method includes outputting a reward because the first running total exceeds a respective first threshold of the reward systems. The method includes transitioning the processor from operating in the first OS to a second OS, and outputting, on a GUI while the processor operates in the second OS, one or more spins of the reel set for the second OS. The method includes determining whether a second running total of displayed symbols exceeds a respective second threshold of the first and/or second reward system, and outputting a reward because the second running total exceeds a respective second threshold of the reward systems.
