Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a specialized warranty bot that can interact with users to evaluate warranty coverage. A warranty interpreter interprets warranty aspects of a given system and converts the warranty terms it into human understandable text. A situation analyzer enhances warranty interpretation by scanning logs across various components that are covered by the warranty and identifying whether the current problems are covered by the warranty. Assessment guidance processing anticipates questions from the customer and provides information regarding why a problem may not be covered by the warranty. Using a solution advisor, based on the problem details and historical analysis, the warranty bot provides insights regarding potential minimum time for resolution of a problem in order to assist the user to decide whether the system needs to be isolated or if the system can remain in production in a non-critical path.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide customers with a need-based warranty using a deep learning neural network. After categorizing, a customer need is mapped to a warranty type based on the SLA needs. Warranties may then be suggested based on customer need. In another embodiment, systems and methods detect an optimal warranty based on part failure and performance of a server. A mean time to resolve or replace can be minimized in future failure instances by comparing the derived replacement time with available warranty offerings to identify potential deviations and thereby recommend an optimal warranty from the available offerings. In a further embodiment, systems and methods identify and offer additional service contracts for vender services. A warranty proposer looks for warranty types that are emitted by a warranty-types analyzer and by a technical-support analyzer. The overlapping warranty offers are provided to customers.

Abstract: Operating ReRAM memory is disclosed herein. The memory cells may be trained prior to initially programming them. The training may help to establish a percolation path. In some aspects, a transistor limits current of the memory cell when training and programming. A higher current limit is used during training, which conditions the memory cell for better programming. The non-memory may be operated in unipolar mode. The memory cells can store multiple bits per memory cell. A memory cell can be SET directly from its present state to one at least two data states away. A memory cell can be RESET directly to the state having the next highest resistance. Program conditions, such as pulse width and/or magnitude, may depend on the state to which the memory cell is being SET. A higher energy can be used for programming higher current states.
