  • Publication number: 20230393856
    Abstract: A computing system includes an array of configurable units made up of sub-arrays of configurable units. Each sub-array has a first number of configurable compute units and a second number of configurable memory units with a first spatial arrangement. Each configurable unit includes a configuration data store. The system also includes a statically configurable bus system coupled to the configurable units and a tag indicating a sub-array of configurable units having a defect. A defect-aware configuration controller sends configuration data to the configuration data stores to implement a data processing operation using the array of configurable units by generating static route control signals for the statically configurable bus system, based on the tag and without support of a host processor, to send a portion of the configuration data targeted to the sub-array having the defect to a configuration data store of an alternative sub-array of configurable units in the array.

  • Patent number: 11816756
    Abstract: The system is disclosed for visual marking sensitive documents for leak prevention. Each time an action is taken with regard to a document (e.g., creation, viewing, downloading), that action is added to a distributed ledger, essentially creating a unique hash for a new instance of the document. This new hash is visually embedded in the document as a code comprising a plurality of differently shaded pixels, wherein some of the pixels directly encode information regarding the document (e.g., an account that generated the new instance of the document, a date, a time, a unique ID for the document, etc.) and some of the pixels do not encode information. The code is capable of being scanned either digitally or physically on a printed version of the document, such that the immediate source of the document, corresponding to who leaked the document, is able to be discerned.

  • Patent number: 11782729
    Abstract: A data processing system comprises a pool of reconfigurable data flow resources and a runtime processor. The pool of reconfigurable data flow resources includes arrays of physical configurable units and memory. The runtime processor includes logic to receive a plurality of configuration files for user applications. The configuration files include configurations of virtual data flow resources required to execute the user applications. The runtime processor also includes logic to allocate physical configurable units and memory in the pool of reconfigurable data flow resources to the virtual data flow resources and load the configuration files to the allocated physical configurable units. The runtime processor further includes logic to execute the user applications using the allocated physical configurable units and memory.

  • Publication number: 20230305860
    Abstract: Argument registers in a reconfigurable processor are loaded from a runtime program running on a host processor. The runtime program stores a configuration file in a memory. A program load controller reads the configuration file from the memory and distributes it to configurable units in in the reconfigurable processor which sequentially shift it into a shift register of the configuration data store. The runtime program stores an argument load file in the memory and a fast argument load (FAL) controller reads the argument load file from memory and distributes (value, control) tuples to the configuration units in the reconfigurable processor. The configurable units process the tuples by writing the value directly into an argument register made up of a portion of the shift register in the configuration data store specified by the control of the tuple without shifting the value through the shift register.

  • Publication number: 20230251994
    Abstract: A reconfigurable processor includes an array of configurable units connected by a bus system. Each configurable unit has a configuration data store, organized as a shift register, to store configuration data. The configuration data store also includes individually addressable argument registers respectively made up of word-sized portions of the shift register to provide arguments to the configurable unit. The configurable unit also includes program load logic shift data into the configuration data store, and argument load logic to directly load data into the argument registers without shifting the received argument data through the shift register. A program load controller is associated with the array to respond to a program load command by executing a program load process, and a fast argument load (FAL) controller is associated with the array to respond to an FAL command by executing an FAL process.

  • Publication number: 20230241393
    Abstract: An electrode lead comprises an electrically insulative cuff body and at least three axially aligned electrode contacts circumferentially disposed along the inner surface of the cuff body when in the furled state. The electrode contacts may be circumferentially disposed around a nerve, and an electrical pulse train may be delivered to the electrode contacts thereby stimulating the nerve to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The electrical pulse train may be one that pre-conditions peripherally located nerve fascicles to not be stimulated, while stimulating centrally located nerve fascicles. A feedback mechanism can be used to titrate electrode contacts and electrical pulse train to the patient. A sensor that is affixed to the case of a neurostimulator can be used to measure physiological artifacts of respiration, and a motion detector can be used to sense tapping of the neurostimulator to toggle the neurostimulator between an ON position and an OFF position.

  • Patent number: 11681645
    Abstract: A reconfigurable data processor includes a plurality of configurable units, and a configuration controller. The configuration controller is configured to start execution of a first application graph in a first set of configurable units. Then, concurrently with the execution of the first application graph in the first set of configurable units, the configuration controllers receive a command to load a configuration file into a second set of configurable units and obtain the configuration file. The configuration file contains information to configure the second set of configurable units to execute a second application graph. The configuration file is then loaded into the second set of configurable units and execution of the second application graph is started in the second set of configurable units.
