Abstract: An example system for routing session requests between existing application code and new application code can: receive a request for an application; access a synthetic session identifier associated with the request; when the synthetic session identifier is associated with the existing application code, route the request to the existing application code; and when the synthetic session identifier is associated with the new application code, route the request to the new application code.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved training methodology that enables supervised contrastive learning to be simultaneously performed across multiple positive and negative training examples. In particular, example aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an improved, supervised version of the batch contrastive loss, which has been shown to be very effective at learning powerful representations in the self-supervised setting. Thus, the proposed techniques adapt contrastive learning to the fully supervised setting and also enable learning to occur simultaneously across multiple positive examples.

Abstract: Techniques facilitating voltage droop reduction and/or mitigation in a processor core are provided. In one example, a system can comprise a memory that stores, and a processor that executes, computer executable components. The computer executable components can comprise an observation component that detects one or more events at a first stage of a processor pipeline. An event of the one or more events can be a defined event determined to increase a level of power consumed during a second stage of the processor pipeline. The computer executable components can also comprise an instruction component that applies a voltage droop mitigation countermeasure prior to the increase of the level of power consumed during the second stage of the processor pipeline and a feedback component that provides a notification to the instruction component that indicates a success or a failure of a result of the voltage droop mitigation countermeasure.

Abstract: A system to aid in design for manufacturing an object includes a processor and a memory configured to store instructions. The processor is configured to receive first data representing a design of the object to be manufactured and second data representing a machine-learning model. The processor is configured to execute the instructions to generate third data using the first data and the second data. The third data indicates at least one of a modification to the design of the object or process conditions for production of the object. The processor is configured to send the design of the object, the process conditions, or both, to a manufacturing tool to enable production of the object. The machine-learning model is representative of production data and based at least partially on one or more of: object features, process parameters, environmental factors, and quality data.

Abstract: A park lock for an output drive gear includes a pawl, a rotational cam, and a rotational spring. The pawl has an engagement protrusion that extends outward from a body disposed on a pawl rotational shaft, such that rotation moves the engagement protrusion toward the output drive gear. The rotational cam rotates such that a circumferential side engages with a portion of the pawl opposite the engagement protrusion, causing rotation of the pawl about the rotational pawl shaft to move the engagement protrusion towards the output drive gear. The rotational spring maintains tension on the pawl and cam such that the engagement protrusion maintains an engagement with the output drive gear based on rotation of the cam and a speed of the output drive gear.

Abstract: Provided are battery packs and interface modules for electrically interconnecting electrochemical cells in the packs and for providing heat distribution with the packs. An interface module interfaces one side of all electrochemical cells in a battery pack. The interface module may have a substantially planar shape such that the space occupied by the module in the battery pack is minimal. Most, if not all, conductive components of the interface module may be formed from the same sheet of metal. In some embodiments, the interface module includes multiple bus bars such that each bus bar interconnects two or more terminals of different electrochemical cells in the battery pack. Each bus bar may have a separate voltage sense lead extending from the bus bar to a connecting portion. The bus bars may be flexibly supported within the module. The interface module may also include multiple thermistors disposed on different bus bars.
