Patent number: 11922535Abstract: Embodiments provide mechanisms to facilitate compute operations for deep neural networks. One embodiment comprises a graphics processing unit comprising one or more multiprocessors, at least one of the one or more multiprocessors including a register file to store a plurality of different types of operands and a plurality of processing cores. The plurality of processing cores includes a first set of processing cores of a first type and a second set of processing cores of a second type. The first set of processing cores are associated with a first memory channel and the second set of processing cores are associated with a second memory channel.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2023Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Prasoonkumar Surti, Narayan Srinivasa, Feng Chen, Joydeep Ray, Ben J.

Patent number: 7844554Abstract: A system and method to remotely enable and disable features in a mailing system is provided. When a customer desires to change the operating features of a mailing system, the customer places an order with a data center. The data center generates a file that identifies each of the features that should be enabled within the mailing system, and the file is sent to the mailing system, along with any files required to implement and support the enabled features, via a network. The mailing system will store the required files, and purge any files no longer required to implement and support features that are no longer enabled. The enabling and disabling of operating features is thus performed remotely from the data center, and does not require a customer service representative to physically visit the location at which the mailing system is installed.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2004Date of Patent: November 30, 2010Assignee: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Robert H. Kummer, Jr., Linda S. Lin, Lynn W. D'Amico, Wesley A. Kirschner

Publication number: 20090171861Abstract: A mailing machine that provides for permanent postage is described. Postage may be purchased at one point of time at a then prevailing rate and used in the future at the same effective purchasing power even if a new more expensive rate schedule is in effect. The mailing machine provides for the accounting of such rate purchased postage using a Postal Security Device and may include multiple rate-table based accounts each associated with a particular postage rate table.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2007Publication date: July 2, 2009Applicant: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Richard Horree, Wojciech M. Chrosny, Linda S. Lin, George M. Macdonald

Publication number: 20090070277Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for processing a plurality of mail pieces that is able to make appropriate class of service determinations during processing based on a first class of service received from a user and a measured weight and dimension(s) of each mail piece. If the first class of service is determined to not be appropriate, a second, appropriate, class of service is determined for the each mail piece using the measured weight and dimension(s). A postage amount is determined for each mail piece using the measured weight and dimension(s) and the appropriate class of service. The method may further include determining whether each of a number of requested special services is applicable to each mail piece so that special service fees may be applied in a discriminate manner. More accurate transaction information may thus be stored for each mail piece.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2008Publication date: March 12, 2009Applicant: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Robert H. Kummer, JR., Jacques E. Hasbani, Linda S. Lin

Patent number: 6649849Abstract: A handheld mailing system that is easily portable while still maintaining the functionality and security necessary for a complete mailing system is disclosed. A handheld device, such as, for example, a Personal Data Assistant (PDA), is provided with a rating engine and metering device functionality. The weight of an item to be mailed can be input manually, or provided via a communication link from a scale. The rating engine in the PDA will determine the necessary amount of postage, and the metering functionality will provide the authorization and funds for the necessary postage. A printer coupled to the PDA provides a printed label. A security device, such as, for example, a dongle, is provided to ensure security for the mail processing functionality.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2001Date of Patent: November 18, 2003Assignee: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Edward R. Bass, Konstantin G. Kodonas, Kimberly S. Chotkowski, Linda S. Lin, Jacques E. Hasbani

Patent number: 6169977Abstract: The invention is a method and system of assigning and updating rates within an electronic scale, wherein the rates are based upon class service and discount level. A set of classes of service available for a particular carrier is established. Each one of the classes comprises one or more discount levels. The classes are embedded into the memory of an electronic scale and a set of data comprising the classes is made available to the system. Updating of the data in the embedded set of classes, is accomplished by defining the update data and the one or more discount levels which are available in each class. A system user limits the classes for which they want access and the carrier and/or service choices are encoded; the encoding determining a unique number that is indicative of the parameters selected by a system user for a particular system. The unique number comprises: a carrier token; a class token; and a set of discount level bytes representative of the available discount within the class.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 1998Date of Patent: January 2, 2001Assignee: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Jacques E.
