  • Publication number: 20190110274
    Abstract: A method and system for datacasting and content management. Such a system may have, as its core, a dashboard system for managing data feeds. A dashboard system may receive data feeds from one or more associated devices, such as the hardware devices of first responders or other public safety officers, and may aggregate and prioritize them. The dashboard system may then manage, prioritize and encrypt the video, files and other data in preparation for broadcast over the television or satellite transmitter, via, for example, a television broadcasting station, and may then broadcast the video, files, or other data to a plurality of users. Alerts and notifications may be created, files attached and links to video streams distributed over this same broadcast network. The broadcasting system may be able to send multiple streams of content simultaneously, may be able to target specific users to be broadcast to, and may be able to incorporate data from public data sources, such as public security cameras.

  • Patent number: 9235674
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with an integrated circuit that includes a plurality of parallel pillar structures is described. In one embodiment, a system includes a design logic configured to analyze a design of an integrated circuit to identify open tracks on each layer by determining a location of structures in each layer of the design. The open tracks are spaces on each layer of the design that are free from structures that obstruct routing the plurality of pillar metals. The system also includes routing logic configured to successively route the plurality of pillar metals in each of the layers of the design based, at least in part, on the parameters and the location of the structures. The routing logic routes pillars of the plurality of pillar metals that are in adjacent layers to be perpendicular and pillar metals that are within a same layer of the design to be parallel.
