  • Publication number: 20240126960
    Abstract: Systems and methods may provide recommendations for a circuit design based on components of the circuit and machine-learning techniques. For example, a system may include a processor-based device storing or accessing a computer-aided design application for an integrated circuit, where the computer-aided design application, when executed by the processor-based device, causes acts to be performed including receiving an indication of a first selected component from a library for a design for the integrated circuit, retrieving one or more suggested components from the library based at least in part on the first selected component, and populating a user interface with the first selected component and a first suggested component of the one or more suggested components for display on the processor-based device.

  • Publication number: 20240069860
    Abstract: A voice-controlled question answering system that is capable of answering questions using both a knowledge base and a search engine. The knowledge base is used to answer questions when answers to those questions are contained in the knowledge base. If an answer using the knowledge base is unavailable, and if the question is suitable for answering using an unstructured search approach, the system may obtain an answer using a search engine. The search engine results may be processed to obtain an answer to the question suitable for output using a voice user interface.

  • Publication number: 20210117359
    Abstract: Bus interface protocols allow users to transmit data from one IP to another. Allowing definition of multiple per-symbol and per-packet user signals allows users to append information with each segment of data or transmit additional information pertaining to the whole packet of data, respectively. This provides finer granularity and control over the information.

  • Patent number: 8731972
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for allowing a user to quickly and easily generate market performance analysis reports. The methods and systems use data mart and on-line analytical processing (OLAP) technology to provide users with summary and detailed information without requiring the user to have specific programming skills. In one implementation, the methods and systems may provide a data mart optimized for the auto insurance industry. Such a data mart may contain data pertaining to auto insurance policies, vehicles, operators, coverage, and incident. Data cubes may be used to organize the data in the data mart according to one or more dimensions. Corresponding perspectives may be constructed to allow the user to access the data in the data cubes. Report templates provide a starting point from which the user may modify for dynamic data exploration or dive deeper into the data “on the fly.

  • Patent number: 8659318
    Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing tristate signaling are described. The systems include an integrated circuit that further includes a tristate system. The tristate system converts an encapsulated unidirectional signal into a tristate signal. A relation between multiple unidirectional signals and the tristate signal is established by encapsulating the unidirectional signals to represent the tristate signal. The establishment of the relation facilitates control of the tristate signal by controlling the encapsulated unidirectional signals.
