Patents by Inventor Saro Meguerdichian

Saro Meguerdichian has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9888868
    Abstract: A sensor system and method configured to take multiple channels of sensors, and based on context and user behavior reflected in the signals, identifies specified channels for sensing according to a sensing policy. The sensing policy is used to reduce the amount of data sampled, such that it is possible to reconstruct the values of the non sampled sensors efficiently. The sensing policy is influenced by user and system's behavior and can be assigned either offline or in real time.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 17, 2011
    Date of Patent: February 13, 2018

  • Patent number: 9411922
    Abstract: Techniques described herein generally include methods and systems related to the selection of a combination of graphene and non-graphene transistors in an IC design. To reduce the increase in leakage energy caused by graphene transistors, selected non-graphene transistors may be replaced with graphene transistors in the IC design while other non-graphene transistors may be retained in the IC design. To limit the number of graphene transistors in the IC design, graphene transistors may replace non-graphene transistors primarily at locations in the IC design where significant delay benefit can be realized.

  • Publication number: 20140041040
    Abstract: A security method includes securely exchanging information related to delays of logic gates of a plurality of security primitives, and configuring a first and a second security primitive such that the delays associated with a subset of logic gates of the first and second security primitives match, for secure communication between the first and second security primitive. The security method may further include configuring the first security primitive and a third security primitive such that the delays associated with a subset of logic gates of the first and third security primitives match, for secure communication between the first and third security primitive. The security method may further include switching the configuration of the first security primitive in one clock cycle between the configuration for secure communication with the second security primitive and configuration for secure communication with the third security primitive.
