  • Patent number: 9483760
    Abstract: Financial transaction card data can be entered by providing a picture of the card to a server programmed with a text recognition algorithm. The server can perform text recognition on the image at the same time that a consumer enters additional required data, such as a zip code. The server can perform as much text recognition processing as possible in the time the consumer is entering the additional data. Once the additional data is received, a signal can be provided to the server indicating that the user is now waiting for results of the text recognition process, meaning the server should provide them as quickly as possible. Once text recognition results are received, a consumer can make a selection to identify a character which the text recognition algorithm did not sufficiently identify. Based on known account number constraints, the user selection can cause multiple characters to be identified.

  • Publication number: 20160303707
    Abstract: Disclosed is a machining process for iron sand particle modification, iron sand particles and a grinding panel of a crusher, the process comprising the following steps: preliminary screening particle sizes; feeding the preliminarily screened iron sand particles into the cavity of the crusher, so that the iron sand particles pile up in the crusher cavity; the crusher is driven by a motor to conduct secondary grinding and crushing of the iron sand particles; the grinding panel of the crusher stirs the iron sand particles piled up in the crusher cavity to generate and maintain corresponding extruding pressure between the iron sand particles, resulting in self-grinding between the iron sand particles stirred by the grinding panel, thereby changing the specific gravity, shapes, and surface microstructures of the iron sand particles.

  • Patent number: 9342344
    Abstract: Techniques for building a list of swap candidate pages for host swapping are provided. In one embodiment, a host system can determine a swap target virtual machine (VM) and a target number of swap candidate pages. The host system can further select a memory page from a memory space of the swap target VM and can check whether the memory page is sharable or compressible. If the memory page is sharable or compressible, the host system can add the memory page to the list of swap candidate pages.

  • Publication number: 20160098207
    Abstract: Memory performance in a computer system that implements large page mappings is improved by dynamically tuning the page scan rate at which a memory sharing module (e.g., in a hypervisor) performs small page scanning operations that identify and exploit potential small page sharing opportunities within large pages. In operation, when free memory is relatively low, the hypervisor adjusts the page scan rate based on a statistical estimate of the percentage of virtual small pages that are mapped to physical large pages that are shareable. In this fashion the hypervisor dynamically tunes the sharing rate to reflect memory usage of applications. Further, unlike conventional approach to page sharing, the hypervisor proactively breaks large pages before resorting to more expensive memory reclamation techniques, such as ballooning and host swapping.

  • Publication number: 20150301946
    Abstract: Techniques for checking the compressibility of a memory page that is allocated to a virtual machine (VM) running on a host system are provided. In one embodiment, the host system can determine a compression ratio for the memory page by compressing the memory page using a first compression algorithm. The host system can then compare the compression ratio to a threshold. If the compression ratio does not exceed the threshold, the host system can predict that the memory page is compressible by a second compression algorithm that is distinct from the first compression algorithm. On average, the second compression algorithm can be slower, but achieve a lower compression ratio, than the first compression algorithm.
