Abstract: Embodiments include an apparatus, a computer readable medium and a method for distributing tessellations within an accelerated processing device (APD) including at least two compute units. Embodiments include processing a plurality of patches in a first compute unit using a hull shader to generate hull shader output data. Once generated, hull shader output data is stored to an off-chip memory when tessellation factors associated with the shader program are greater than a configured threshold. Once stored in the off-chip memory, at least a portion of the hull shader output data is dynamically processed using a second compute unit.

Abstract: In one aspect, composite layers are described herein demonstrating phase-separated architectures which, in some embodiments, can mitigate performance disadvantages of prior organic layers of optoelectronic devices. A composite organic layer described herein comprises nanocluster nodes and carbon nanoparticles disposed in a conjugated polymeric host, wherein the carbon nanoparticles are substantially phase separated from the conjugated polymeric host forming lamellar structures of carbon nanofibrils radiating from the nanocluster nodes.

Abstract: The disclosure contained herein describes systems, units, and methods usable to stimulate a formation including a pump usable to pressurize fluid, an electric-powered driver in communication with and actuating the pump, and an electrical power source in communication with and powering the electric-powered driver. The electrical power source can include on-site generators and/or grid power sources, and transformers can be used to alter the voltage received to a voltage suitable for powering the electric-powered driver. Air moving devices associated with the electric-powered driver can be used to provide air proximate to the pump to disperse gasses. In combination with fluid supply and/or proppant addition subsystems, the pump can be used to fracture a formation.

Abstract: Certain aspects of an apparatus and method for Internet protocol (IP) video signal synchronization may include a server or switching center. The method for synchronized transmission of content may include receiving a plurality of content streams and a request to switch the transmission of content. The plurality of content streams may be received from a plurality of sources. The request to switch may switch the transmission of content from a first content stream to a second content stream of the received plurality of content streams. A time delay may be determined to be added to the transmission of content to compensate for a propagation delay of the received request and a processing delay to process the received request.
