Patent number: 11775561Abstract: Systems and methods provide custom synchronization procedures in file synchronization. A primary agent is used to monitor for changes, create synchronization plans to synchronized changes, and execute the synchronization plan. The primary agent, however, interacts with one or more separate custom agents to customize the synchronization plans. One exemplary technique involves monitoring for local changes to a first copy of a file tree and updates from another computing device regarding remote changes to a second copy of the file tree. When a change to either copy is identified, a synchronization plan for the change is created based on a default synchronization procedure. The synchronization plan is sent to a custom agent for customization. The custom agent creates the custom synchronization plan by modifying the synchronization plan and sends the custom synchronization plan to the primary agent. The custom synchronization plan is then executed by the primary agent.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: ADOBE, INC.Inventors: Neil Moore, Adrian O'Lenskie, Peter Brown

Patent number: 11598613Abstract: Aluminum structures, such as tactical vehicle hulls, include plural aluminum components formed from a first alloy composition and joined by one or more welded seam(s). The welded seam(s) may be formed by friction stir welding and/or gas metal arc welding using welding wire made from the first alloy composition. In this manner, all component parts are made from the same alloy composition, providing a more homogeneous structure. The welded component parts then may be placed in a heat treatment furnace to temper the structure. Because essentially all of the aluminum structure before heat treating—the welded seam(s) and the individual component parts—is formed of the same starting material and these parts/seam(s) are simultaneously and evenly heat treated, the resultant hardened, heat-treated part (e.g., a vehicle hull) has a more homogeneous hardened/heat treated structure in the individual parts and across the welded seam(s).Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2019Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: Science Applications International CorporationInventors: Peter Brown, George S. Chryssomallis, Eric Smay

Publication number: 20220404980Abstract: Systems and methods are described for a cross-site high availability distributed storage system. According to one embodiment, a computer implemented method includes providing a remote direct memory access (RDMA) request for a RDMA stream, and generating, with an interconnect (IC) layer of the first storage node, multiple IC channels and associated IC requests for the RDMA request. The method further includes mapping an IC channel to a group of multiple transport layer sessions to split data traffic of the IC channel into multiple packets for the group of multiple transport layer sessions using an IC transport layer of the first storage node and assigning, with the IC transport layer, a unique transaction identification (ID) to each IC request and assigning a different data offset to each packet of a transport layer session.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2022Publication date: December 22, 2022Inventors: Peter Brown, Houze Xu, Bipin Tomar, Joseph Brown, JR.

Publication number: 20220405220Abstract: Systems and methods for an interconnect layer send queue reservation system are provided. In one example, a method involves performing a transfer of data (e.g., an NVLog) from a storage system to a secondary storage system. A send queue having a fixed number of slots is maintained within an interconnect layer interposed between a file system and a Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) layer of the storage system. The interconnect layer implements an application programming interface (API) for the reservation system. A deadlock situation is avoided by, during a suspendable phase of a write transaction, making a reservation for slots within the send queue via the reservation system for the transfer of data. When the reservation is successful, the write transaction proceeds with a modify phase, during which the reservation is consumed and the interconnect layer is caused to perform an RDMA operation to carry out the transfer of data.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2021Publication date: December 22, 2022Inventors: Ping Zhou, Joseph Brown, JR., Peter Brown, Bipin Tomar

Publication number: 20220143415Abstract: An emulation apparatus emulates an electrophysiological signal derived from a target area of a human or animal nervous system under the influence of a stimulation signal applied to the human or animal body. A prior signal generator generates a prior signal representing an electrophysiological signal in the absence of stimulation. A test signal representing a stimulation signal is received and used by a modelling unit to derive a modulation signal representing the degree of modulation of the electrophysiological signal, in accordance with a model of the temporal evolution of the modulation of the electrophysiological signal caused by the stimulation signal. A modulation unit modulates the prior signal in accordance with the modulation signal to output an emulation signal representing an electrophysiological signal derived under the influence of the stimulation signal. The emulation apparatus has wide use in neuroscience research, bioengineering and clinical applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2020Publication date: May 12, 2022Inventors: Jean DEBARROS, Peter BROWN, Huiling TAN, Timothy DENISON

Patent number: 11327338Abstract: Eyewear device includes an eyeglass frame, a temple, and a coupling device for hingedly coupling the temple to the eyeglass frame, formed of an elastically deformable material, and including a single flexible arm of an elongate shape and a front end portion positioned and retained against the front surface of the eyeglass frame. The single flexible arm extends from the front end portion into a slot in the frame and an internal elongate slot in the temple positioned in opposing alignment therewith. The elasticity of the coupling device flexibly, hingedly couples the temple to the eyeglass frame and allows a temple that has suffered inordinate bending moments and directions to instantly return to nominal use by retightening or replacing the coupling device, and/or by repositioning the temple to properly abut the eyeglass frame.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2020Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Inventor: Peter Brown

Publication number: 20210370070Abstract: When generating a stimulation signal comprising stimulation pulses delivered to a target area of a human or animal body, an electrophysiological signal measured from the body for closed-loop control of the stimulation signal, is sampled, at a sampling frequency in an analogue-to-digital converter for deriving a feedback signal for closed-loop control of the stimulation signal. The generation of the stimulation signal and the sampling of the electrophysiological signal are synchronised and have a relative phase selected to cause the sampling to occur outside the stimulation pulses, which prevents the effect of the stimulation pulses from interfering with the digital electrophysiological signal, whiles allowing maintenance of Nyquist-Shannon rules and the integrity of the discrete Laplace transform (z-transform) required in discrete control theory.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2019Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Jean DEBARROS, Huiling TAN, Peter BROWN
