  • Patent number: 9996409
    Abstract: A big data processing system includes a workload trimming function that separates out from among a set of identified anomalies, those that are clearly outliers, rather than ones residing within clusters of anomalies as mapped within an anomalies distribution space. The outlier anomalies are not subjected to a computationally-intensive anomalies aggregating process and thus, processing resources are conserved.

  • Patent number: 9065521
    Abstract: Under one aspect, a system includes circuitry that digitizes and Fourier transforms first and second beams and outputs first and second sets of spectral bins. Each bin may include a portion of a group of signals or interference. The circuitry compares the collective power levels of each set of spectral bins to a predetermined threshold, and excises at least one bin of that set that contains the interference if the collective power level of that set exceeds the predetermined threshold. The circuitry determines an angular location of the interference based on excised bins, combines remaining bins with weights selected to form a null in a pattern of the first and second beams that is aligned with the interference's angular location, and inversely Fourier transforms the combined remaining bins and outputs the group of signals less any interference that was excised or excluded by the null.

  • Publication number: 20130247019
    Abstract: System and method for managing and specifying hardware implementation of a graphical program. A graphical program that implements an algorithm is stored in a memory of a computer system. The graphical program meets one or more first specified implementation requirements and is targeted for deployment to a programmable hardware element. A plurality of sets of descriptive directives are also stored in the memory, where the descriptive directives are associated with the graphical program and specify one or more additional specified implementation requirements, e.g., memory resource implementations, optimization directives, and so forth, where the additional directives result from programmatic and/or user-specification. Each set of descriptive directives is useable by a synthesis tool to generate a respective hardware configuration program for deployment to the graphical programmable hardware element.
