  • Publication number: 20100091447
    Abstract: A device comprising a first thermal interface material, and a first micro-channel cold plate. The first thermal interface material is in physical communication with a first plurality of memory modules of a computer system. The first micro-channel cold plate is in physical communication with the first thermal interface material. The first micro-channel cold plate is adapted to allow a fluid flow through a first plurality of micro-channels, and configured to remove a first amount of heat produced by the first memory modules of the computer system through the first thermal interface material.

  • Publication number: 20090313188
    Abstract: Methods provided by this description may include receiving input signals for classification, and deriving specified signal parameters from the input signals. These methods may also compare the specified signal parameter to signal parameters derived from training signals, with the training signals being associated with predefined signal classes. These methods may also classify the input signals based on this comparison of the signal parameters, as derived respectively from the input signals in the training signals.

  • Patent number: 7536669
    Abstract: A Direct Memory Access (DMA) system is provided for simplified communication between a processor and IP cores in an FPGA. The DMA system includes use of dual-port BRAM as a buffer and a decoder as a DMA control signal identification mechanism. The DMA control signals are stored in an area of the BRAM memory recognized by the decoder using chip enable (CE), write enable (WE), and address (ADR) signals. The decoder, upon recognizing a DMA control signal, will generate an event vector. The event vector triggers a READ operation by the receiving device at the associated BRAM control data memory address. DMA control codes can be detected as sent from either the processor or the IP core or both, depending upon whether the system employs a MASTER/SLAVE, SLAVE/MASTER, or PEER/PEER control model.

  • Publication number: 20090107269
    Abstract: A telescoping actuator is described which provides a first and third segments operatively connected to a second segment. A locking system locks the first and third segment in rotation with respect to one another. Upon rotation of the second segment, the first and third segments are displaced relative to one another and the second segment. The first and third segments are operatively coupled to the second segment by corresponding sets of threads in some embodiments. The locking system may be interlocking tubes, or shafts displaced internal to the actuator. Rotational energy may be imparted to the second stage externally about its outer diameter or internally by a driveshaft operatively connected to a drive source.

  • Publication number: 20080304632
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for obtaining statistics from the use of a voice application. More particularly, the invention may comprise an interception engine that is configured to receive a document from an IVR application server and inject a marker(s) into the document, and pass the document on to an IVR browser. The interception engine is further configured to receive a response document from the IVR browser, remove the marker results, and pass the document on to the IVR application server. The marker results are used to create statistical information useful in the analysis of the operation of the voice application in the IVR system. In an exemplary embodiment, the markers are used in connection with a map of the call flow of the voice application.

  • Publication number: 20080304650
    Abstract: A method and exploration engine for automatically detecting a call flow path of a voice application having a plurality of dialog states, the method comprising the steps of: identifying, in an automated manner, the plurality of dialog states of the voice application through execution of the voice application; and identifying at least one relationship between the plurality of dialog states. The method may further comprise some of the following steps: creating a unique identifier (ID) for one of the plurality of dialog states, wherein the unique ID is based on information received when executing the voice application, wherein the information comprises attributes associated with one of the plurality of dialog states; storing the unique ID and other information associated with the dialog state; and graphically illustrating a call flow path of the voice application based on the unique ID and other information stored in the database.
