  • Patent number: 11914899
    Abstract: A system (e.g., NVMe controller) for managing access to a memory resource by multiple users may include memory storing function queue categorizations for function queues associated with each user, and circuitry to store and execute a multi-user arbitration algorithm that arbitrates access to the memory resource by the multiple users. The function queue categorizations assign a function category to each function queue associated with each user.

  • Patent number: 7161606
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are presented that use a direct synthesis approach using layers in order to directly generate a virtual view from a pair of images. In one embodiment, a range space is discretized into a plurality of layers. For each layer, the first input image and the second input image are warped to the layer. A matching score is then determined for each pixel in the new view based on the warped input images. For each pixel in the virtual view, a best layer is determined. After the best layer has been determined, the color of the pixel in that layer is used for that pixel in the generated view.
