  • TRANSITION DUCT SUPPORT AND METHOD TO PROVIDE A TUNED LEVEL OF SUPPORT STIFFNESS
    Publication number: 20170268355
    Abstract: A transition duct support apparatus and a method to support an exit frame in a transition duct in a gas turbine engine are provided. A stiffener (24) may be arranged to provide support to an outer edge (27) of an exit frame (12) in a transition duct (14). Stiffener (24) may be configured to circumferentially extend between mutually opposed corners (30) of the exit frame of the transition duct. A brace (26) may be connected to a centrally-disposed section (20) and may extend to support respective end portions (32) of the stiffener. The support apparatus is effective to provide a respective tuned level of stiffness support with respect to one or more axes of the exit frame in the transition duct.

  • Error source identification on time-of-day network
    Patent number: 9747147
    Abstract: In an approach to identifying a source of a time-of-day network error, one or more computers increment a first counter and a second counter on each of one or more computer processors simultaneously. The one or more computers determine whether an error is detected in the one or more computer processors. In response to determining the error is detected, the one or more computers freeze the second counter on the one or more computer processors associated with the detected error. The one or more computers determine on which of the one or more computer processors the second counter is frozen. The one or more computers report a time-of-day network error, where reporting a time-of-day network error includes assigning a priority to one or more sources of the time-of-day network error.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for performing a read operation of an RRAM cell, which applies a non-zero bias voltage to unselected bit-lines and select-lines to increase a read current window without damaging corresponding access transistors. In some embodiments, the method may be performed by activating a word-line coupled to a row of RRAM cells comprising a selected RRAM device by applying a first read voltage to the word-line. A second read voltage is applied to a bit-line coupled to a first electrode of the selected RRAM device. One or more non-zero bias voltages are applied to bit-lines and select-lines coupled to RRAM cells, within the row of RRAM cells, having unselected RRAM devices.

  • DYNAMICALLY CONFIGURABLE SHARED SCAN CLOCK CHANNEL ARCHITECTURE
    Publication number: 20170184665
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing an electronic device with multiple cores is provided. The method begins when at least one scan is input for scan configuring. A signal having a predetermined number of bits is then input to a decoder. The decoder then outputs at least one assigned test channel based on the output of the decoder. A test control block then switches at least one selected scan in channel to a test control block. A hard macro scan out of channels is then input to a channel maximization device which allocates or re-allocates the channels for testing. Testing proceeds once the channels are allocated. An apparatus includes a programmable scan configuration block for adjusting the number of scan out channels to maximize testing resources and a predetermined bit register in communication with the programmable scan configuration block.

  • ZERO DAY THREAT DETECTION USING HOST APPLICATION/PROGRAM TO USER AGENT MAPPING
    Publication number: 20170134419
    Abstract: A technique allows associating host applications and user agents in network traffic and detecting possible malware without relying on signatures of the user agents. A database of host applications and user agents is maintained, allowing automatic update of the database when a new application or new application to user agent mapping is discovered. Partial matches may be made when a change is made to the application, allowing learning the new mapping automatically. If an application is associated with more than a threshold number of user agents, an indication may be generated that the application is suspicious and possibly malware.

    Publication number: 20170103004
    Abstract: An approach is provided in which a system selects a first processor as a master Time of Day (TOD) processor in a first TOD topology. The system then assigns a second processor as an alternate master TOD processor to a second TOD topology based upon determining that the second processor is on a different node than the first processor. The system configures to the first TOD topology and, when the system detects a TOD failure requiring a topology switch, the system re-configures to the second TOD topology.
