Patent number: 10936404Abstract: Technologies for error recovery in compressed data streams include a compute device configured to compress uncompressed data of an input stream to generate compressed data, perform a compression error check on the compressed data to verify integrity of the compressed data, and determine, as a result of the performed compression error check, whether the compressed data included a compression error. The compute device is further configured to transfer, in response to a determination that the performed compression error check indicated that the compressed data included the compression error, the uncompressed data into a destination buffer, and store an indication with the uncompressed data into the destination buffer, wherein the indication is usable to identify that the uncompressed data has been transferred into the destination buffer. Other embodiments are described herein.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2018Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Laurent Coquerel, Paul Hough

Patent number: 10151475Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system for determining scaling in a boiler. At least one sensor may monitor a boiler during operation and provide sensor data to a boiler monitoring module including a boiler scaling determination module that may determine an amount of scaling in the boiler. Example sensor data may comprise power input, a temperature of liquid in the boiler and an air temperature within an enclosure housing the boiler. The boiler monitoring module may determine thermal energy transfer to the boiler based on the liquid and enclosure temperatures. A machine learning engine may determine a rate of thermal energy transfer to the liquid in view of the power input, the rate of thermal energy transfer being evaluated by the machine learning engine to identify delay in the rate of thermal energy transfer that quantifies an amount of scaling in the boiler.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2014Date of Patent: December 11, 2018Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Rita Chattopadhyay, Hoang Van, Trevor Ryan, Paul Hough
