Abstract: A slip ring transmitter for electrically connecting assemblies of rotary-table machines is described and comprises a slip ring with a signal unit for transmitting signals and/or data and with a power unit for transmitting electrical power. As the signal unit is formed such that it is modularly detachable can in particular be axially drawn off from the power unit, the signal unit can be inspected and/or replaced separately from the power unit. This improves the reliability of the transmission of signals and/or data and enables individual optimization of the power unit.

Abstract: In an embodiment, an integrated circuit includes multiple instances of a component (e.g. a processor) and a control circuit. The instances may be configured to operate in various modes. Some of the modes are incapable of presenting a worst-case load on the power supply. The control circuit may be configured to monitor the instances and detect the modes in which the instances are operating. Based on the monitoring, the control circuit may request to recover a portion of the voltage margin established for worst-case conditions in the instances. If the instances are to change modes, they may be configured to request mode change from the control circuit. If the mode change causes an increase in the current supply voltage magnitude (e.g. to restore some of the recovered voltage margin), the control circuit may cause the restore and permit it to complete prior to granting the mode change.

Abstract: A method is provided for maintaining an onboard reasoner for diagnosing failures on an aircraft that includes aircraft systems configured to report faults to the onboard reasoner. The method includes accessing diagnostic data received from an onboard computer of the aircraft that includes the onboard reasoner. An off-board reasoner builds an off-board diagnostic causal model that describes causal relationships between the failed tests and the diagnosed failure modes. The off-board diagnostic causal model is compared to the diagnostic data. Based thereon, a discrepancy is identified between the graph of the off-board diagnostic causal model, and the other graph of the onboard diagnostic causal model, to determine a new causal relationship relative to the known causal relationships. The onboard diagnostic causal model is updated to further describe the new causal relationship, including producing an updated model, and uploading the updated model to the onboard computer.

Abstract: A method is provided for diagnosing a failure on an aircraft that includes aircraft systems configured to report faults to an onboard reasoner. The method includes receiving a fault report at an onboard computer of the aircraft from an aircraft system of the aircraft systems, the fault report indicating failed tests reported by the aircraft system. The onboard reasoner accesses an onboard diagnostic causal model represented by a graph describing known causal relationships between possible failed tests reported by the respective ones of the aircraft systems, and possible failure modes of the respective ones of the aircraft systems. The onboard reasoner diagnoses a failure mode of the aircraft system or another of the aircraft systems, from the failed tests, and using a graph-theoretic algorithm and the onboard diagnostic causal model. A maintenance action is determined for the failure mode, and a maintenance message is generated including the maintenance action.

Abstract: Embodiments of present disclosure discloses system and method for reconstruction of FOV. Initially, presence of one of single object and distinct objects in FOV of image of sample comprising one or more objects is determined based on sharpness of one or more objects. A single optimal representation of FOV may be generated when presence of single object is determined. At least one of single optimal representation and a depth-based enhanced representation of FOV may be generated when presence of distinct objects is determined. For generating depth-based enhanced representation, one or more first optimal images associated with each of distinct objects in FOV may be retrieved. An optimal representation of each of distinct objects is generated based on corresponding one or more first optimal images. Further, optimal representation of each of distinct objects is placed at corresponding optimal depth associated with respective distinct object to generate depth-based enhanced representation.

Abstract: A clock glitch alerting circuit is configured to detect a glitch in an input clock signal, and activate and provide an alert signal to a security controller when the glitch is detected. The clock glitch alerting circuit is further configured to delay the input clock signal based on multiple selection signals, and provide one of a delayed clock output signal and a filtered clock output signal to the security controller based on the alert signal. The clock glitch alerting circuit is further configured to generate and provide a count value to the security controller that indicates a time duration available by the security controller to execute a security critical operation after receiving the activated alert signal.

Abstract: Generating a table with at least one skewed row, skewed column, shifted row, or shifted column is described. A table generation system generates a table that includes cells arranged in a grid comprising rows and columns, and defines each cell using a grid address, a grid span, a grid angle, a string skew value, a string shift value, and a shift indicator for the cell. The table generation system may receive input modifying a grid angle for at least one row or column and generate a modified table by skewing cells included in the at least one row or column by the grid angle. The table generation system may additionally or alternatively receive input shifting at least one row or column by a string shift value and modify the display of the table by shifting the at least one row or column according to the string shift value.

Abstract: A method for marking text in digital typography includes identifying one or more glyphs that intersect or overlap with a text marking bounding box, drawing a modified text marking to avoid intersecting with the one or more glyphs, and causing a display device to display the modified text marking with the text. The text marking is associated with a line of text including the glyphs or adjacent to a waxline of text including the glyphs. For each of the glyphs, the glyph corresponding to the glyph bounding box intersecting with the text marking is indicated. The modified text marking is drawn based on outlines of the glyphs, intersections between a text marking bounding box and the glyph outlines, and a user-specified glyph offset, text marking weight, and/or text marking offset to avoid intersecting with the glyphs. The shape of the modified text marking avoids intersecting with or overlapping the glyph.

In one example, the system can receive a user command to generate a digital mixtape including a user-defined compilation of music. The user command identifies a recipient of the digital mixtape and identifies one or more media content items to be included in the music compilation for the recipient. The digital mixtape can also include audio recordings from the user to be added to the digital mixtape.

Abstract: A method for handling kernel services for interrupt routines in a multi-core processor in an electronic device. The method comprises receiving a first interrupt on a first core of the multi-core processor, wherein the first interrupt includes at least one kernel service request and at least one non-kernel service request. The method further determines whether a worker queue of the first core in empty and whether a kernel service lock for the at least one kernel service request is acquired by at least one second core of the multi-core processor, in response to determining that the worker queue of the first core is empty. The method further comprises executing the at least one non-kernel service request of the first interrupt on the first core. The pending kernel service request are queued in the worker queue based on whether worker queue is empty or not and availability of kernel lock.
