  • Cognitive expected program code installation result assessment
    Patent number: 11106444
    Abstract: Cognitive expected program code installation result assessment by a method that includes collecting environment information about a cloud computing environment and collecting description information about program code for potential installation. The method maintains a hierarchical model for determining whether the program code is expected to install properly on the computer system, and uses the hierarchical model for such determining, including performing an analysis that proceeds through level(s) of the model based on the description information and arrives at an indication as to whether the program code is expected to install properly. The method performs processing based on determining whether the program code is expected to install properly, for instance by generating and providing a recommendation to a user regarding installation of the program code.

  • Light sensor device controlled with dual-mode master-and-slave MCU application
    Patent number: 10915079
    Abstract: A light sensor device is provided. It is controlled with a dual-mode master-and-slave microcontroller unit (MCU) application. An MCU is embedded into a light sensor chip. The original dual-mode master-and-slave dual-CPU architectures are combined to be operated as a single-CPU architecture. Since the original circuit pin design is followed, it is possible to be compatible with the old circuit design. The present invention uses a single-CPU architecture to directly control light sensors. Through the configuration of RAM, an inter-integrated circuit bus (I2C I/F) can be redirected to an internal non-volatile memory to switch the operational mode of the light sensor chip from a slave machine to a host machine which switches off the interrupt pin and, then, turns to a GPIO pin. Thus, the present invention provides a simple single-CPU architecture with easy use and effectively-lowered cost.
