Patent number: 12286966Abstract: A valved manifold module is disclosed, constructed and arranged to be readily connected in a chain with similar modules to form a manifold assembly. The modular manifolds allows for expansion or modification of the manifold assembly to control a group of pneumatically or hydraulically driven pumps, valves or combinations thereof in a liquid flow control apparatus. The valved manifold module can be configured to accept a group of four substantially identical valve assemblies, and can be controlled by a local controller mounted to the manifold module, thus forming an independently programmable valved manifold module. The resulting modular system is expandable to allow for coordinated operations of a liquid flow control system, using substantially independent controller functions originating at the manifold assembly level.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2023Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: DEKA Products Limited PartnershipInventors: Dirk A. van der Merwe, Timothy D.

Publication number: 20250111274Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for determining a probability of incident occurrence resulting from one or more changes to one or more computer networked applications. A machine learning (ML) model is trained to identify probability of likelihood of one or more incidents from occurring to one or more computer applications attributable to one or more changes to the one or more computer applications. Information is received corresponding to at least one application change attribute, which is then analyzed by the trained ML model to identify one or more incident occurrence indicators applicable to the at least one application change attribute.

Publication number: 20250112200Abstract: A surface of an integrated circuit (IC) die structure and a substrate to which the IC die structure is to be bonded include biphilic regions suitable for liquid droplet formation and droplet-based fine alignment of the IC die structure to the substrate. To ensure warpage of the IC die structure does not interfere with droplet-based fine alignment process, an IC die structure of greater thickness is aligned to the substrate and thickness of the IC die structure subsequently reduced. In some embodiments, a back side of the IC die structure is polished back post attachment. In some alternative embodiments, the IC die structure includes sacrificial die-level carrier is removed after fine alignment and/or bonding.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Adel Elsherbini, Kimin Jun, Feras Eid, Thomas Sounart, Yi Shi, Shawna Liff, Johanna Swan, Michael Baker, Bhaskar Jyoti Krishnatreya, Chien-An Chen

Publication number: 20250112177Abstract: Hybrid bonded die stacks, related apparatuses, systems, and methods of fabrication are disclosed. An integrated circuit (IC) die backside surface and a surface of a structural substrate each include bonding regions surrounded by hydrophobic structures. A liquid droplet is applied to the die or structural substrate bonding region and the die is placed on the bonding region of the structural substrate. Capillary forces cause the die to self-align to the bonding region, and a bond is formed by evaporating the liquid and subsequent anneal. A hybrid bond is then formed between the opposing active surface of the die and a base substrate using wafer-to-wafer bonding. IC structures including the IC die and portions of the structural substrate and base substrate are segmented from the bonded wafers and assembled.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Feras Eid, Thomas Sounart, Yi Shi, Michael Baker, Adel Elsherbini, Kimin Jun, Xavier Brun, Wenhao Li

Publication number: 20250112199Abstract: Hybrid bonded multi-level die stacks, related apparatuses, systems, and methods of fabrication are disclosed. First-level integrated circuit (IC) dies and a base substrate each include hybrid bonding regions surrounded by hydrophobic structures. The hybrid bonding regions are brought together with a liquid droplet therebetween, and capillary forces cause the IC die to self-align. A hybrid bond is formed by evaporating the droplet followed by anneal. Hybrid bonding regions of second-level IC dies are similarly bonded to hybrid bonding regions on backsides of the first-level IC dies. This is repeated for any number of subsequent levels of IC dies. IC structures including the bonded IC dies and portions of the base substrate are segmented and assembled.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Intel CorporationInventors: Thomas Sounart, Feras Eid, Adel Elsherbini, Yi Shi, Michael Baker, Kimin Jun, Wenhao Li

Publication number: 20250063021Abstract: Aspects described herein may relate to cyber threat detection based on threat context and/or threat changes. Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) data may be received from a CTI provider. Endpoint data that indicates evidence that endpoints are cyber threats may be determined based on the CTI data. The endpoint data may be analyzed and/or compared to stored data associated with the endpoint. The analysis and/or comparison may be performed to determine whether evidence that the endpoint is a cyber threat has changed. Based on any changes, dispositions for the endpoint may be determined and sent. The dispositions may change how devices filter network traffic associated with the endpoint. Alternatives to default dispositions may be determined based on a impact of blocking potentially legitimate network traffic to and/or from the endpoints. Machine-learning models may assist in processing and analyzing CTI data, performing threat monitoring, and/or determining feeds that include the dispositions.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2024Publication date: February 20, 2025Inventors: David K.
