Abstract: An insert to limit the rate of flow of liquid from a drinking cup includes a mount to locate the insert within a cup above a liquid contained therein but below a brim of the cup. A peripheral edge of the insert is spaced a predetermined distance from an inner surface of a cup such that, when a person drinks from the brim of a cup fitted with the insert, the rate of flow of liquid to the brim is limited by the insert.

Abstract: A method for modular script design includes receiving, at a modular script designer component, script information from a user, generating a list of suggested modules based on the script information, and receiving, at the modular script designer component, a selection of a next module from the user. The selection of the next module includes a selection of the next module from among the list of the suggested modules or a request for a new module. If the selection of the next module includes the request for the new module, the method further includes generating the new module.

Abstract: Clock signal generation circuitry. A frequency multiplier is coupled to receive a clock signal and to generate a frequency-multiplied clock signal. A switching circuit is coupled to receive at least two reference clock signals. The switching circuit provides one of the reference clock signals in response to a reference select signal. A phase locked loop (PLL) is coupled to receive the frequency-multiplied clock signal and the selected reference clock signal. The PLL generates an output clock signal.

Abstract: A method of prioritizing and assigning test scripts is provided in a testing platform configured to organize, manage, and facilitate the debugging of test scripts. The test scripts are used in testing software modules. The method includes receiving a plurality of test scripts, applying a predetermined set of factors to each test script, and assigning a weight value to each factor based on a relative importance of the factor. A priority value is set for each test script based on the weighted factors, and the test script is assigned to a queue position for execution based on the corresponding priority value, where the assigned test script is associated with one or more bias factors. The test script is then selected from the testing queue and forwarded if the bias factors indicate that requirements of the test script match corresponding bias factors of the testing individual.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for converting between a full memory address and a compressed memory address. For example, one embodiment comprises one or more translation tables having a plurality of translation entries, each translation entry identifiable with a pointer value and storing a portion of a full memory address usable within the processor to address data and instructions; and address translation logic to use the translation tables to convert between the full address and a compressed version of the full address, the compressed version of the full address having the pointer value substituted for the portion of the full memory address, wherein a first portion of the processor performs operations using the compressed version of the full address and a second portion of the processor performs operations using the full address.

Abstract: An automation controller for next generation testing system includes a database including a plurality of scripts and modules, a business layer component, and an automation component. The automation component includes an automation agent and an automation worker. The business layer component is operable to determine a next script from the plurality of scripts and modules and send the next script to the automation component in response to a get next script request sent by the automation component. The automation agent is operable to send the get next script request to the business layer, receive the next script from the business layer, and send the next script to the automation worker for execution. The automation worker is operable to execute the next script or section thereof, obtain a result, send status updates, send proof of life notifications and the result of execution to the automation agent.

Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a codebook for wireless transmissions may be generated by dividing a codebook into a fixed set of codewords and an adaptive set of codewords. The adaptive set of codewords may be scaled to cluster together and then rotated to be centered or nearly centered about a target. The adaptive set of codewords may then be merged with the fixed set of codewords to provide a hybrid codebook. A codeword from the hybrid codebook may be selected for precoding a transmission to provide a minimum, or nearly minimum, quantization error.

Abstract: Techniques for controlling alignment of conditions between modular functional blocks in an integrated circuit having a hierarchical network of modular functional blocks. The output of each functional block can be logically determined by its external inputs combined with internal state feedback and internal state and is derived from a pattern of prior external inputs. Alignment of output conditions from independent and interdependent functional blocks within the hierarchical network of functional blocks is induced to provide unique conditions by modifying internal state and timing alignments with internal data and internal controls within one or more of the modular functional blocks. Functional outputs from one or more of the modular functional blocks can be monitored based on the modified internal state and timing alignments. Pattern results can be generated based on the monitoring. Test results based on the pattern results can be stored.
