Abstract: A secure programming system and method for provisioning and programming a target payload into a programmable device mounted in a programmer. The programmable device can be authenticated before programming to verify the device is a valid device produced by a silicon vendor. The authentication process can include a challenge-response validation. The target payload can be programmed into the programmable device and linked with an authorized manufacturer. The programmable device can be verified after programming the target payload by verifying the silicon vendor and the authorized manufacturer.

Abstract: Described is a packaging technology to improve performance of an AI processing system. An IC package is provided which comprises: a substrate; a first die on the substrate, and a second die stacked over the first die. The first die includes memory and the second die includes computational logic. The first die comprises DRAM having bit-cells. The memory of the first die may store input data and weight factors. The computational logic of the second die is coupled to the memory of the first die. In one example, the second die is an inference die that applies fixed weights for a trained model to an input data to generate an output. In one example, the second die is a training die that enables learning of the weights. Ultra high-bandwidth is changed by placing the first die below the second die. The two dies are wafer-to-wafer bonded or coupled via micro-bumps.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for predicting the impact of various weather conditions on signal quality in a satellite communication system. A first model is generated for predicting RF signal degradation, and trained with link quality metrics from selected terminals over a first time interval. A second model is generated for predicting RF signal degradation resulting from weather conditions, and trained with both the link quality metrics from the selected terminals and weather conditions over a second predetermined time interval. Real time link quality metrics are analyzed using the trained first model and the trained second model in order to identify changes in current RF signal quality. At least one recommendation is subsequently generated to indicate a cause for changes in the current RF signal quality.

Abstract: This Application sets forth techniques for managing subscriber identity module (SIM) toolkit (STK) scheduling for multiple enabled electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profiles on an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) of a wireless device, including managing multiple STK sessions at a baseband processor external to the eUICC of the wireless device. To forestall STK communication for different eSIMs from interfering with execution of processes associated with the eSIMs, a baseband processor can schedule STK sessions to avoid overlap and reduce opportunities for errors in handling eSIM processes. The baseband processor can prioritize whether to queue commands for a second STK session for a second eSIM until a first STK session for a first eSIM ends or to terminate the first STK session to handle the second STK session.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an article with a liquid-impregnated surface, the surface having a matrix of features thereupon, spaced sufficiently close to stably contain a liquid therebetween or therewithin, and preferable also a thin film thereupon. The surface provides the article with advantageous non-wetting properties. Compared to previous non-wetting surfaces, which include a gas (e.g., air) entrained within surface textures, these liquid-impregnated surfaces are resistant to impalement and frost formation, and are therefore more robust.

Abstract: A system and a method include monitoring a discharge temperature of a compressor of a powered system while the compressor is in an unpowered state, and changing the state of the compressor from the unpowered state to an unloaded powered state to start operation of the compressor responsive to the discharge temperature of the compressor reaching a first temperature threshold. The discharge temperature of the compressor is monitored for a first length of time while the compressor operates in the unloaded powered state. The state of the compressor is changed from the unloaded powered state to a loaded powered state responsive to the discharge temperature being within a first temperature range for the first length of time.

Abstract: This invention provides an improved display system and method that is created by adjusting the properties of one or more displays to obtain coarse control over display behavior, by using sensors to optimize display parameters. The display is further improved by constructing a display map by selectively driving the display and sensing the optical image created. Furthermore, the sensors are used to ensure that the resulting optimized display meets target quality measurements over time, potentially taking into account ambient conditions. The system reports on status, and can predict when it no longer meets a quality target. It is able to optimize a display system and keep it optimized over time. Individual displays with the display system can have operating points that are matched to each other. Corrections to the input image signal, delivering improved display system performance, are minimized, and therefore, unwanted artifacts of those changes can be minimized.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a Raman spectral signature for detection of plant metabolites, specifically carotenoids, in tissue of a plant leaf. Carotenoids are used as a biomarker for an early, real-time diagnosis of shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) in growing plants in a non-invasive or non-destructive way in order to detect the adverse effect of the SAS upon their health, and ultimately their yield. The early, real-time diagnosis of SAS provides a window period within which further adverse effects of SAS may be slowed or prevented without negatively affecting the yield of growing plants or leafy vegetables.
