Abstract: A multicycle path circuit capable of operating at a functional mode and an at-speed test mode. The multicycle path circuit includes an on-chip controller configured to receive an on-chip clock signal and modulate the on-chip clock signal to provide a first clock signal to a first circuit and a second clock signal to a second circuit. The first clock signal and the second clock signal are in a multicycle phase relationship. The on-chip controller is configured to ensure the clock paths to and from the second circuit to be the same for the functional mode and the at-speed test mode and therefore to avoid hold and setup timing conflict between these modes.

Abstract: Technologies are shown for storing data from a data object in a distributed application architecture and reassembling the data object from the stored data.

In response to a request for the data object, a script from the blockchain is executed to generate a reassembled data object by: obtaining, from the blockchain, metadata to reassemble the data object, obtaining the second set of data from the blockchain and the first set of data from the distributed file system, and generating the reassembled data object using the first set of data and the second set of data based on the metadata.

Abstract: A data management system (DMS) may facilitate snapshot exports between a snapshot storage account and a computing system. The DMS may receive, from the computing system, a request to download data associated with one or more snapshots stored in the snapshot storage account in a first cloud environment. The DMS may generate an export job for execution by one or more computing resources within the first cloud environment based on the request. The export job may be operable to decrypt the data and write the decrypted data to an export storage account in a second cloud environment. The DMS may generate an encrypted download link that is operable to download the decrypted data from the export storage account. The DMS may transmit the encrypted download link to the computing system associated with the request to download the data.

Abstract: An apparatus and system are provided for detecting leaks in cooling tubing using sensor cabling. In the leak detection system, a leak detection cable is routed along the full length of the cooling tube. The leak detection cable and the cooling tubing are encased within a shrunken tube, which leaves such a small gap between the cooling tubing and the heat-shrunk tube that leakage is distributed within the gap about the outside of the cooling tubing by capillary action. The relative position of the detection cable above or below the cooling tubing is then irrelevant, since the capillary action may overcome the effect of gravity and distribute leakage from the bottom of the tubing to a detection cable at the top of the tubing.

Abstract: Technologies are shown for storing a data object in a distributed application architecture. Critical data in the data object is stored in an object data block on a blockchain. Noncritical data elements in the data object are stored in data block files at an address on a distributed file system, where the addresses are stored in the data block. The object data block is retrieved from the blockchain. The noncritical elements are retrieved from the file system using the address in the data block. The critical and noncritical elements are combined into a reassembled data object. The critical and noncritical data elements can be differentiated in a data definition for the data object or algorithmically analyzing data in the data object. Metadata for the data object can be stored in the object data block and utilized to combine the critical and noncritical elements into the reassembled data object.

Abstract: A tones processing system including an interference tone determination module (ITDM), an interference tone tracker module (ITTM) and an interference tone removal module (ITRM) is provided. The ITDM sequentially searches for one or more continuous wave interference (CWI) tones in N samples of intermediate frequency (IF) data within a programmable signal frequency band. The ITTM tracks the detected CWI tones. The ITRM removes the tracked CWI tones from the N samples of IF data using one or more interference tone removal units (ITRUs). Each of the ITRUs includes a second signal generator, a second mixer, a tone filter for suppressing the tracked CWI tones, and a quantizer for reducing the number of processing bits in a tone suppressed output signal. The ITRM performs frequency shift compensation and phase rotation compensation with reduced logic area and power consumption in the global navigation satellite system, receiver.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for validation of speech commands from an aircraft pilot. The method comprises receiving a speech command from the aircraft pilot with a voice communication device that is part of a cockpit system. Next, the speech command is decoded into a computer readable format. The decoded speech command is then checked against the present aircraft state as indicated by avionic sensors of the aircraft and against an approved pre-condition that is stored in a pre-condition database. The decoded speech command is validated if the decoded speech command is consistent with the present aircraft state and consistent with the approved pre-condition. An input to the cockpit system is updated to execute the speech command from the aircraft pilot if the decoded speech command is validated.
