Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for communications security. For example, a computing device may generate a connection between the computing device and a client device. A first application executing at the computing device may send a first application session key to the client device via the connection. The first application may perform a cryptographic operation on a first message based at least in part on the first application session key to generate a first cryptographic result and send the first cryptographic result to the client device via the connection. The first application may receive a second cryptographic result from the client device via the connection and determine that the second cryptographic result was obtained with the first application session key.

Abstract: A voltage translator having first and second one-shots shifts a voltage level of a first voltage signal to generate a second voltage signal, and vice-versa. The first one-shot generates a first driver signal when the first voltage signal goes from low to high based on a time duration for which the first voltage signal remains high. The second voltage signal is generated based on the first driver signal. Similarly, the second one-shot generates the first voltage signal when the second voltage signal goes from a low to high based on a time duration for which the second voltage signal remains high.

Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for a Target Language Engine are presented. The Target Language Engine augments a synonym list in a base dictionary of a target language with one or more historical search queries previously submitted to search one or more listings in listing data. The Target Language Engine identifies a compound word and a plurality of words present in the listing data that have a common meaning in the target language. Each word from the plurality of words is present in the compound word. The Target Language Engine causes a database to create an associative link between the portion of text and a word selected from at least one of the synonym list or the plurality of words.

Abstract: A bi-directional level translator with fast rise and fall times and low current leakage is suitable for use with devices connected using a SPMI bus. The level translator passes signals between first and second voltage domains that operate at different voltage levels. The level translator has a first terminal that receives a first signal A from the first voltage domain and outputs a second signal B to the second voltage domain. A second terminal receives the second signal B and outputs the first signal A. A first switch is located between the first voltage source and the first terminal and a second switch is located between the second voltage source and the second terminal. The first and second switches are operable to reduce current leakage of the level translator.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for implementing routing aware placement for an electronic design. These techniques identify a block having one or more first pins or interconnects to be inserted into a first layer corresponding to a first set of tracks and identify a second set of tracks on a second layer adjacent to the first layer. One or more candidate locations may be generated on the first layer for the block based in part or in whole upon the first set of tracks. The block may be inserted into a candidate location on the first layer based in part or in whole upon respective costs or routability of the one or more candidate locations with respect to the second set of tracks.

Abstract: A bidirectional voltage translator shifts a voltage level of a first voltage signal to generate a second voltage signal, and vice-versa. The voltage translator includes first and second I/O terminals for receiving and outputting the first and second voltage signals, respectively, and first and second one-shot circuits connected to first and second output transistors, respectively. The outputs of the transistors are connected to the first and second I/O terminals, respectively, and also are fed back to the respective one-shot circuits. When the output of the voltage translator has a high slew-rate, the one of the first and second one-shot circuits that corresponds to the output modulates the gate voltage of the corresponding output transistor based on the feedback signal to control the slew-rate of the output.
