Abstract: Systems and methods for information retrieval are described. Embodiments generate a dense embedding for each of a plurality of media objects to be searched, generate a sparse embedding for each of the media objects using an encoder that takes the dense embedding as an input, wherein the sparse embedding satisfies a sparsity constraint that is applied to at least one layer of the encoder during training, and perform a search on the plurality of media objects based at least in part on the sparse embedding.

Abstract: A method of communicating with a network interface includes providing a packet to the network interface, where the packet includes an address field indicating a destination of the packet. The network interface analyzes the address field, and determines if it reflects an address associated with the network interface. If not, the network interface provides the packet to a network. If the network interface determines the address field reflects an address associated with the interface, it provides information in the packet to an application executing at the network interface. Accordingly, information targeted to an application can be communicated by associating an address, such as a network address, with the network interface, allowing for communication of the information without extensive processing of each packet at the interface.

Abstract: A method for receiving a first indication from a host device is comprised. The device is a first port of the host device that has been reserved fro a network device. The method also poses as the host device at the network device in response to a receipt of the first indication.

Abstract: A method is disclosed that receives a function call at an application program interface. The method selects a first processor of a plurality of processors to execute the function call. The method further executes a first transmit function associated with a bus coupled to the first processor. The first transmit function includes a function parameter associated with the function call.

Abstract: A method includes communicating a first message between processors of a multiprocessor system via a coherency interconnect, whereby the first message includes coherency information. The method further includes communicating a second message between processors of the multiprocessor system via the coherency interconnect, whereby the second message includes interprocessor message information. A system includes a coherency interconnect and a processor. The processor includes an interface configured to receive messages from the coherency interconnect, each message including one of coherency information or interprocessor message information. The processor further includes a coherency management module configured to process coherency information obtained from at least one of the messages and an interrupt controller configured to generate an interrupt based on interprocessor message information obtained from at least one of the messages.

Abstract: A processing device includes a first storage location configured to store a first value associated with a first address space, a second storage location configured to store a second value associated with a second address space, and a third storage location configured to store a third value associated with a third address space. The processing device further includes a memory management unit, which includes a first input configured to receive a first address value associated with a data transfer operation, a second input configured to receive an identifier associated with the data transfer operation, and an address space select module configured to identify a select value from the first value, the second value and the third value based on the identifier. The memory management module further includes an address modification module configured to generate a second address value based on the first address value and the select value.
