Abstract: A singulating system for parcels comprises: an inner wall; a first section comprised of a series of driven rollers, which are skewed relative to a longitudinal direction of travel, so that the parcels are conveyed not only in the longitudinal direction of travel, but also toward the inner wall; a second section for receiving the parcels from the first section, and then identifying and moving parcels in a side-by-side arrangement and/or parcels with an irregular shape; and a third section for receiving the parcels from the second section. In some embodiments, the singulating system also includes a visioning subsystem, including a camera for acquiring image data of the parcels as the parcels move toward or into the second section, and a computer to receive and analyze the image data from the camera to identify parcels in a side-by-side arrangement and/or parcels with an irregular shape.

If so, an indication is included in the transmitted data packet.

Abstract: A mop (100) includes a mop head (101) having a housing (302) defining a major surface to couple to a cleaning pad (204). One or more flappers (201,202) are disposed along the major surface. The flappers, in response to actuation of an actuator (104), selectively pivot from a closed position disposed within the housing and substantially parallel with the major surface to an angularly displaced open position extending distally outward from the major surface. A user actuates the actuator (104) to detach the cleaning pad from the major surface without having to handle the cleaning pad.

Abstract: A system for identifying and transferring parcels includes a robot singulator configured to engage and transfer individual parcels in a bulk flow of multiple parcels on a first conveyor to a singulated stream of parcels on a second conveyor. The system further includes a vision and control subsystem, with a first camera for acquiring image data of the bulk flow of multiple parcels, and a computer that receives and processes the image data to identify and segment individual parcels, and then communicates instructions to the robot singulator to engage and transfer each of the individual parcels to the second conveyor. The system may further include a second camera for acquiring image data of the individual parcels to confirm placement on the second conveyor. The system may further include first and second indexing conveyors controlled by the vision and control subsystem for delivering parcels to the robot singulator.

Abstract: A data analytical engine receives packets from a number of different network interface devices. The data is a replica of part or all of transmit or receive packets processed in the network interface device. A learning algorithm is applied to data from said different network interface devices and it is determined if an alert is to be generated.

Abstract: Providing early instruction execution in a processor, and related apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed. In one aspect, an apparatus comprises an early execution engine communicatively coupled to a front-end instruction pipeline and a local register file. The apparatus may be configured to use value prediction wherein all input values of the instructions are actually available early in the pipeline (in the front-end), even before the value producers have executed, thus, providing an opportunity for early executing such instructions, and avoid sending these early executed instructions to the power hungry out-of-order engine that may improve performance as well as energy efficiency. In other aspects, the front-end of the pipeline is augmented with a component for early executing simple operations (e.g.

Abstract: Allocating power between multiple central processing units (CPUs) in a multi-CPU processor based on total current availability and individual CPU quality-of-service (QoS) requirements is disclosed. Current from a power rail is allocated to CPUs by a global current manger (GCM) circuit related to performance criteria set by CPUs. The CPUs can request increased current allocation from the GCM circuit, such as in response to executing a higher performance task. If the increased current allocation request keeps total current on the power rail within its maximum rail current limit, the GCM circuit approves the request to allow the CPU increased current allocation. This can allow CPUs executing higher performance tasks to have a larger current allocation than CPUs executing lower performance tasks without the maximum rail current limit being exceeded, and without having to necessarily lower voltage of the power rail, which could unnecessarily lower performance of all CPUs.
