  • Patent number: 9424862
    Abstract: The APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A DIGITAL CONVERSATION MANAGEMENT PLATFORM (“DCM-Platform”) transforms digital dialog from consumers, client demands and, Internet search inputs via DCM-Platform components into tradable digital assets, and client needs based artificial intelligence campaign plan outputs. In one implementation, The DCM-Platform may capture and examine conversations between individuals and artificial intelligence conversation agents. These agents may be viewed as assets. One can measure the value and performance of these agents by assessing their performance and ability to generate revenue from prolonging conversations and/or ability to effect sales through conversations with individuals.

  • Publication number: 20160131367
    Abstract: A portable heating system includes a plenum chamber forming a base. The plenum chamber has a plurality of side walls and defines an upper opening. The side walls also define a plurality of side openings, each configured for attachment to an elongate flexible duct. A heating unit is coupled to the plenum and has an air intake opening for drawing air into the heating unit and an air vent opening for blowing warm air out of the heating unit, into the upper opening of the plenum chamber and out through the ducts. The ducts can be located throughout a structure to provide heating in various remote locations from the heating unit. A frame assembly is coupled to the plenum chamber and includes a handle for grasping by a user and a pair of wheels to allow the heating system to be moved.

  • Publication number: 20160019066
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for executing divergent threads using a convergence barrier are disclosed. A first instruction in a program is executed by a plurality of threads, where the first instruction, when executed by a particular thread, indicates to a scheduler unit that the thread participates in a convergence barrier. A first path through the program is executed by a first divergent portion of the participating threads and a second path through the program is executed by a second divergent portion of the participating threads. The first divergent portion of the participating threads executes a second instruction in the program and transitions to a blocked state at the convergence barrier. The scheduler unit determines that all of the participating threads are synchronized at the convergence barrier and the convergence barrier is cleared.

  • Publication number: 20150348317
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for processing primitive-specific attributes. A portion of a graphics processor is determined to operate in a fast geometry shader mode and a vertex associated with a set of per-vertex attributes is determined to be a shared vertex. The shared vertex is determined to be a non-provoking vertex corresponding to a first primitive that is associated with a first set of per-primitive attributes and the shared vertex is determined to be a provoking vertex corresponding to a second primitive that is associated with a second set of per-primitive attributes. Only one set of the per-vertex attributes associated with the shared vertex is stored and only one of the second set of per-primitive attributes associated with the second primitive is stored.

  • Publication number: 20150089198
    Abstract: An issue control unit is configured to control the rate at which an instruction issue unit issues instructions to an execution pipeline in order to avoid spikes in power drawn by that execution pipeline. The issue control unit maintains a history buffer that reflects, for N previous cycles, the number of instructions issued during each of those N cycles. If the total number of instructions issued during the N previous cycles exceeds a threshold value, then the issue control unit throttles the instruction issue unit from issuing instructions during a subsequent cycle. In addition, the issue control unit increases the threshold value in proportion to the number of previously issued instructions and based on a variety of configurable parameters. Accordingly, the issue control unit maintains granular control over the rate with which the instruction issue unit “ramps up” to a maximum instruction issue rate.

  • Patent number: 8799311
    Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems implementing intelligent data caching are disclosed. A client can send a request for data to a server. The request can include a query and a query context. The query can retrieve more data than can be displayed in a current page. The query context can specify a quantity of data records that can be displayed in the current page. The client can receive from the server two sets of data in response to the request. The first set of data can include row identifiers of data records that satisfy the query. The second set of data can include data records that can be displayed in the current page. The client can store the two sets of data in one or more buffers (e.g., two buffers) and update buffer(s) when different data records are displayed (e.g., when a user scrolls through pages).
