Patent number: 12147537Abstract: A malware family identification engine constructs a graph data structure of direct relationships between malware instances and malware families, direct relationships between malware instances and detected tags, and indirect relationships between detected tags and malware families. The engine builds a dictionary data structure comprising detected tag entries linking each detected tag to one or more malware family nodes based on the graph data structure. The engine identifies significant indirect entities (SIEs) within the detected tag entries of the dictionary data structure and selects a SIE with a highest number of out-going links (OGLs) as a root node in a family tree data structure, recursively connects SIEs with a number of OGLs less than the highest number of OGLs to the root node in the family tree data structure, and converts each SIE name in the family tree data structure to a chained family entity name in the family tree data structure.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2023Date of Patent: November 19, 2024Assignee: Business Machines CorporationInventors: Yu-Siang Chen, Ci-Hao Wu, Ying-Chen Yu, Pao-Chuan Liao, June-Ray Lin

Publication number: 20240379845Abstract: A medium voltage transistor of a level shifter circuit may include a p-well region in a substrate. Moreover, the medium voltage transistor may include an n-type lightly-doped source/drain (NLDD) region in which an N+ source/drain region of the medium voltage transistor is included. The light doping in the NLDD region enables a threshold voltage (Vi) to be reduced while enabling medium voltage operation at the N+ source/drain region. To reduce the amount of current leakage in the medium voltage transistor due to the light doping in the NLDD region, a buffer layer may be included over and/or on a portion of the NLDD region under a gate structure of the medium voltage transistor. The NLDD region and the thermal region of the medium voltage transistor enables the threshold voltage of the medium voltage transistor while maintaining the same current leakage performance or reducing current leakage in the medium voltage transistor.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2023Publication date: November 14, 2024Inventors: Chen-Liang CHU, Hsin-Chih CHIANG, Ruey-Hsin LIU, Ta-Yuan KUNG, Ta-Chuan LIAO, Chih-Wen YAO, Ming-Ta LEI

Patent number: 12132348Abstract: A dual power switching system includes a first STS, a second STS, an inductive device, and a controller. The first STS is electrically coupled to a main power source, and the second STS is electrically coupled to a backup power source. When detecting that the main power source is abnormal, the controller detects a residual magnetic flux of the inductive device and calculates a magnetic flux difference between the predicted magnetic flux and the residual magnetic flux. When determining that an absolute value of the magnetic flux difference is less than or equal to a magnetic flux deviation value, the controller determines whether the output power meets a forced commutation condition. When determining that the output power meets the forced commutation condition, the controller turns on the second STS so that the first STS is forcibly turned off by the backup power source through the second STS.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2023Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: DELTA ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Jen-Chuan Liao, Chien-Chih Chan, Jia-Cheng Sie
