  • Patent number: 9441119
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention generally relate to methods and compositions for forming conformal coatings on textured substrates. More specifically, embodiments of the invention generally relate to sol-gel processes and sol-gel compositions for forming low refractive index conformal coatings on textured transparent substrates. In one embodiment a method of forming a conformal coating on a textured glass substrate is provided. The method comprises coating the textured glass substrate with a sol-gel composition comprising a solidifier. It is believed that use of the solidifier expedites the sol-gel transition point of the sol-gel composition leading to more conformal deposition of coatings on textured substrates.

  • Patent number: 9417987
    Abstract: A load store advisory program sets a breakpoint within a load-store sequence of a program, determines if the breakpoint will cause unexpected behavior, and generates a warning if it is determined that the breakpoint will cause unexpected behavior. The unexpected behavior may be the result of setting a breakpoint within a load-store sequence that, because of the breakpoint, will repeatedly fail.

  • Patent number: 9397913
    Abstract: In general, techniques are described for performing packet loss measurement in a distributed data plane. In one example, a local router includes a plurality of forwarding units that implement a distributed data plane. First and second forwarding units may switch layer two (L2) packet data units (PDUs) between the local router and a remote router using a virtual path. The first and second forwarding may unit may increment, in response to processing any PDU of the PDUs for the virtual path, respective counters stored by the first and second forwarding units. The first and second forwarding units may update, based on the respective counters, a loss-measurement packet (LMP). For instance, the first forwarding unit, upon updating the LMP, may internally forward the LMP to the second forwarding unit. The second forwarding unit, upon updating the LMP, may send the LMP to the remote router.

  • Patent number: 9350863
    Abstract: The customer experience is enhanced by detecting leakage-to-voice from chats and providing recommendations to operations, chat agents, and customers. A chat is classified into leakage-to-voice or leakage-to-text chat and actionable recommendations are then provided to operations, chat agents, and customers based on the leakage information. Once leakage is identified, various other insights are extracted from chats and such insights are fed into the knowledge-base. Such insights also used in agent training and are provided to chat agents as recommendations. This results in a better customer experience.

  • Patent number: 9301375
    Abstract: A multi-strike ballast to ignite an electrodeless lamp is disclosed, and includes an inverter circuit, a protection circuit, and a controller. The inverter circuit, upon activation, sends an ignition pulse to the lamp. The inverter circuit shuts down upon receiving a deactivation signal, and activates upon receiving an activation signal, triggering another ignition pulse. The protection circuit senses a change in a voltage associated with the lamp. The sensed changed may indicate that the lamp has not yet ignited or that the lamp is broken. The controller receives the sensed change in voltage and, in response, sends a deactivation signal to the inverter circuit. The controller waits a predetermined time and then sends an activation signal to the inverter circuit. The controller repeats until a change in voltage associated with the lamp is not sensed, or until a predefined number of repeats occur, providing multiple ignition pulses to the lamp.
