Publication number: 20250131460Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide for automatically generating digital color palettes associated with user interest colors. A method may include receiving, by a computer, a user interest digital color value, retrieving a color palette ruleset having rules to provide Boolean outputs indicating whether a color palette rule is satisfied by candidate color values, applying the color palette ruleset to the user interest color value, and identifying digital color values for a digital color palette associated with the user interest color value. Identifying the digital color values can include: identifying a complement color value to the user interest color, identifying a neutral gray color corresponding to the user interest color, mapping the user interest color, complement color, and neutral gray color in a 3D color plane, and applying triangulation techniques to identify a subset of color values within a triangular range according to the color palette ruleset.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2023Publication date: April 24, 2025Inventors: Dominique Mueller, Edward Robert Charbonneau, Suyao Tian

Publication number: 20250023808Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a host that polls a network adapter to receive data from a network. That is, the host/CPU/application thread polls the network adapter (e.g., the network card, NIC, or SmartNIC) to determine whether a packet has been received. If so, the host informs the network adapter to store the packet (or a portion of the packet) in a CPU register. If the requested data has not yet been received by the network adapter from the network, the network adapter can delay the responding to the request to provide extra time for the adapter to receive the data from the network.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2023Publication date: January 16, 2025Inventors: David James RIDDOCH, Derek Edward ROBERTS, Kieran MANSLEY, Steven Leslie POPE, Sebastian TURULLOLS

Patent number: 12189824Abstract: An integrated circuit chip can provide protection with registers of a register file. A processor can be part of general or security-oriented (e.g., root-of-trust (RoT)) circuitry. In described implementations, the processor includes multiple register blocks for storing multiple register values. The processor also includes multiple integrity blocks for storing multiple integrity codes. A respective integrity block is associated with a respective register block. The respective integrity block can store a respective integrity code that is derived from a respective register value that is stored in the respective register block. The integrity code can enable detection or correction of one or more corrupted bits in the register value. An integrity controller of the processor can monitor the register value regularly or in response to an access by an execution unit. The controller can take a protective action if corruption is detected. This enables information protection to extend to processor execution units.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2021Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Thomas Edward Roberts, Timothy Jay Chen
