Abstract: Provisioning business functions is provided. A runtime binary activation code is sent to a nodal edge server that has a needed runtime binary for a set of edge devices to perform a business function. A secure shell protocol connection with root operating system access is established to the nodal edge server that has the needed runtime binary to execute the runtime binary activation code.

Abstract: Setting a primary server within a business density cluster when the business density location changes. A new primary edge provisioning server replaces a current primary edge provisioning server when the business density cluster is determined not to include the current primary edge provisioning server. An edge provisioning framework handles the associations and dissociations of the edge network(s) to build the new primary server within the business density cluster. The former primary server is respawned as a new secondary node to the new primary server.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a semiconductor die having a chip outline boundary, a die seal, a row of input/output contact pads separated from the chip outline boundary by the die seal, a first row of solder bump connections positioned between the row of input/output contact pads and the die seal, and a second row of solder bump connections separated from the first row of solder bump connections by the row of input/output contact pads.

Abstract: An improved Phase Locked Loop (PLL) for digital integrated circuits. A characteristic of this PLL is that the Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) output is fed to the phase and frequency detector (PFD) input through a clock-tree replica providing a delay equal to the routed clock tree. “This enables the PLL to maintain the proper phase even during a sleep mode of operation.
