Abstract: A credit-based flow control system can utilize speculative credit. If an agent has not received a credit return from a downstream agent for a given period of time, the agent can return speculative credit to an upstream agent. This way, even if the agent is not currently capable of performing operations represented by the speculative credit, the upstream agent can be enabled to proceed with operations.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one approach, is for establishing coherent analysis across distributed locations. The computer-implemented method includes: processing messages at an initiator location. In response to detecting a query indicator set on one of the messages: an inspection resource is allocated from a pool of available inspection resources to collect initial information associated with the processing of the message having the set query indicator. Moreover, the message is sent to a receiver location with the set query indicator for processing and collecting supplemental information associated with the processing of the message at the receiver location. The initial and supplemental information is eventually collected, and the collected information is processed for determining performance characteristics of the processing of the message at the initiator and receiver locations.

Abstract: Techniques facilitating voltage droop reduction and/or mitigation in a processor core are provided. In one example, a system can comprise a memory that stores, and a processor that executes, computer executable components. The computer executable components can comprise an observation component that detects one or more events at a first stage of a processor pipeline. An event of the one or more events can be a defined event determined to increase a level of power consumed during a second stage of the processor pipeline. The computer executable components can also comprise an instruction component that applies a voltage droop mitigation countermeasure prior to the increase of the level of power consumed during the second stage of the processor pipeline and a feedback component that provides a notification to the instruction component that indicates a success or a failure of a result of the voltage droop mitigation countermeasure.

Abstract: A two sided digital platform for medical patients and medical providers is described in this document. On the provider side, users are able to create digital healthcare assets and programs which prescribe a set of instructions to patients. These instructions may vary from a detailed long-term medical care-plan to a quick survey of questions to be filled. From the patient side, users may browse medical programs which are made open by providers, as well as be assigned personalized programs by their caregivers. Feedback is given to the system by both providers and patients, which feeds a recommendation mechanism that suggests patients relevant programs that may help them achieve healthcare and lifestyle goals. Users are able to view their programs in a compartmentalized view, whether it is providers editing their programs under both public and private settings or patients reviewing all of the programs they are enrolled in and assigned divided based on the programs' inherent instructions.

Abstract: This document describes a system that combines medical screenings capabilities for multiple conditions and disease with dynamic alerting and learning mechanisms. Via digital questionnaires and surveys, clinical patients utilize the system as a risk-assessment tool which classifies individuals' likelihood to have or develop a certain condition. Real-time dynamic alerting reacts to patients' answers with actionable information when high-risk classification is observed from a patient's responses. Historical medical records are fed into a feedback loop which improves the system's risk assessment by learning previous survey answers that correlate to a patient with specific positive diagnosis of the screened condition.

Abstract: Techniques implemented by a game-hosting service to place a load balancer between client devices engaged in a game session and servers that maintain state data for the game session. Rather than having a single server maintain state data and host the game session, the load balancer will broadcast action data received from the client devices to the server that is hosting the game session, or “primary server,” and also to a redundant server that is maintaining state data for the game session, or “secondary server.” Thus, if the primary server is unable to continue hosting the session, the secondary server may begin hosting the game session using the state data maintained for the game session. Further, by offloading the network input/output (I/O) tasks of communicating with the client devices from the server to the load balancer, the server can allocate larger amounts of resources to hosting game sessions.
