Patent number: 9723367Abstract: Implementations disclose identifying content appropriate for children. A method includes selecting a list of candidate channels from a plurality of channels based on an automatically generated rating of each of the plurality of channels, filtering the list of candidate channels based on feedback received from a first group of reviewers with respect to appropriateness of content of each candidate channel for children, selecting a list of candidate videos based on an automatically generated rating of each video from every channel in the filtered list of candidate channels, and upon receiving, via a graphical user interface, a confirmation that a candidate video from the list of candidate videos is appropriate for children, setting a confirmation indicator of the candidate video to enable presentation of the candidate video to children.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2015Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Eileen Margaret Peters Long, Shirley Connie Gaw, Sertan Girgin, Geethmala Sridaran, Stephen Nicholls, Bosun Adeoti

Patent number: 8639487Abstract: An automated system-on-chip (SOC) hardware and software cogeneration design flow allows an SOC designer, using a single source description for any platform-independent combination of reused or new IP blocks, to produce a configured hardware description language (HDL) description of the circuitry necessary to implement the SOC, while at the same time producing the development tools (e.g., compilers, assemblers, debuggers, simulator, software support libraries, reset sequences, etc.) used to generate the SOC software and the diagnostics environment used to verify the SOC.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2003Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: Cadence Design Systems, Inc.Inventors: Gulbin Ayse Ezer, Pavlos Konas, John Barrett Andrews, Stephen Wei Chou, Eileen Margaret Peters Long, Marc Alan Evans

Patent number: 8539399Abstract: A technique that improves both processor performance and associated data bandwidth through user-defined interfaces that can be added to a configurable and extensible microprocessor core. These interfaces can be used to communicate status or control information and to achieve synchronization between the processor and any external device including other processors. These interfaces can also be used to achieve data transfer at the rate of one data element per interface in every clock cycle. This technique makes it possible to design multiprocessor SOC systems with high-speed data transfer between processors without using the memory subsystem. Such a system and design methodology offers a complete shift from the standard bus-based architecture and allows designers to treat processors more like true computational units, so that designers can more effectively utilize programmable solutions rather than design dedicated hardware.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2007Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Cadence Design Systems, Inc.Inventors: Nupur B. Andrews, James Kim, Himanshu A. Sanghavi, William A. Huffman, Eileen Margaret Peters Long
