Patent number: 12332770Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for automated locating of user interface elements during graphical user interface testing. When a graphical user interface (GUI) is received for testing, images of the GUI are inputted to a machine learning algorithm, where image processing techniques are applied to identify groups of user interface elements and their constituent elements. Multi-dimensional index values are assigned to groups and elements corresponding to their positions within the GUI. Automated testing of the user interface elements of the GUI is performed by locating the user interface elements by their index values. If an element is not found, a scrolling technique is applied to generate an expanded virtual GUI of one or more groups of user interface elements, and the machine learning algorithm refreshes the index values using the expanded virtual GUI.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: June 17, 2025Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jin Shi, Lu Chen, Tang Xue Bo, Ping Yang, Meng Qi Chen, Rui Na Liu

Publication number: 20250077362Abstract: Post-copy is one of the two key techniques (besides pre-copy) for live migration of virtual machines in data centers. Post-copy provides deterministic total migration time and low downtime for write-intensive VMs. However, if post-copy migration fails for any reason, the migrating VM is lost because the VM's latest consistent state is split between the source and destination nodes during migration. PostCopyFT provides a new approach to recover a VM after a destination or network failure during post-copy live migration using an efficient reverse incremental checkpointing mechanism. PostCopyFT was implemented and evaluated in the KVM/QEMU platform. Experimental results show that the total migration time of post-copy remains unchanged while maintaining low failover time, downtime, and application performance overhead.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2024Publication date: March 6, 2025Inventors: Kartik Gopalan, Ping Yang, Dinuni K.

Patent number: 12243848Abstract: Methods and systems for improving fusion bonding are disclosed. Plasma treatment is performed on a substrate prior to the fusion bonding, which leaves residual charge on the substrate to be fusion bonded. The residual charge is usually dissipated through an electrically conductive silicone cushion on a loading pin. In the methods, the amount of residual voltage on a test silicon wafer is measured. If the residual voltage is too high, this indicates the usable lifetime of the silicone cushion has passed, and the electrically conductive silicone cushion is replaced. This ensures the continued dissipation of residual charge during use in production, improving the quality of fusion bonds between substrates.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2022Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Hong-Ta Kuo, Yen Hao Huang, I-Shi Wang, Ming-Yi Shen, Tzu-Ping Yang, Hsing-Yu Wang, Huang-Liang Lin, Yin-Tung Chou, Yuan-Hsin Chi, Sheng-Yuan Lin
