Patent number: 11651192Abstract: Systems and processes for training and compressing a convolutional neural network model include the use of quantization and layer fusion. Quantized training data is passed through a convolutional layer of a neural network model to generate convolutional results during a first iteration of training the neural network model. The convolutional results are passed through a batch normalization layer of the neural network model to update normalization parameters of the batch normalization layer. The convolutional layer is fused with the batch normalization layer to generate a first fused layer and the fused parameters of the fused layer are quantized. The quantized training data is passed through the fused layer using the quantized fused parameters to generate output data, which may be quantized for a subsequent layer in the training iteration.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2020Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: James C. Gabriel, Mohammad Rastegari, Hessam Bagherinezhad, Saman Naderiparizi, Anish Prabhu, Sophie Lebrecht, Jonathan Gelsey, Sayyed Karen Khatamifard, Andrew L. Chronister, David Bakin, Andrew Z. Luo

Patent number: 7386859Abstract: Methods, functional components and structures are disclosed for carrying out management of client/server processes operating within separate process spaces within a computer system. The disclosed methods, functional components facilitate and carry out management of client and server processes within a computer system such that a greater degree of control can be exhibited over their execution. An active server component process maintains a list structure identifying each client process that is currently using one of the server component process's interfaces. When a new client references a server, the list structure is augmented to include the system identification (e.g., handle) assigned by the operating system to the client process. A thread within the server process blocks while awaiting a triggering event (e.g., a client process in the list terminates). When the client process terminates, the block on the thread releases and the thread processes the change in client references.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2002Date of Patent: June 10, 2008Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Upender Sandadi, David Bakin, Andrew L. Nicholson, David Sauntry, Marc Shepard

Publication number: 20060236368Abstract: Resource management architectures implemented in computer systems to manage resources are described. In one embodiment, a general architecture includes a resource manager and multiple resource providers that support one or more resource consumers such as a system component or application. Each provider is associated with a resource and acts as the manager for the resource when interfacing with the resource manager. The resource manager arbitrates access to the resources provided by the resource providers on behalf of the consumers. A policy manager sets various policies that are used by the resource manager to allocate resources. One policy is a priority-based policy that distinguishes among which applications and/or users have priority over others to use the resources. A resource consumer creates an “activity” at the resource manager and builds one or more “configurations” that describe various sets of preferred resources required to perform the activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2006Publication date: October 19, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Jayachandran Raja, Jai Srinivasan, Mukund Sankaranarayan, David Bakin, Sean McDowell, Robin Speed
