Abstract: A method includes generating configuration data for a computing apparatus having a plurality of processing units with associated memory. The configuration data defines (i) a plurality of nodes corresponding to the processing units, and (ii) a plurality of buffers connecting respective pairs of the nodes, each buffer having a storage capacity. The method further includes executing a dataflow simulation using the configuration data, and in response to detecting a deadlock in the simulation, determining a candidate buffer associated with the deadlock. The method includes updating the configuration data to increase a storage capacity of the candidate buffer, and deploying the updated configuration data to the computing apparatus.

Abstract: Systems, devices, articles, and methods, described in greater detail herein, including robotic systems which include at least one rangefinder, at least one manipulator, and at least one processor in communication with the at least one rangefinder, and methods of operation of the same. The at least one processor obtains rangefinder pose information which represents, at least, the at least one manipulator in a plurality of poses. The at least one processor obtains manipulator pose information, optimizes a model of mismatch between the rangefinder pose information and the manipulator pose information, wherein the model of mismatch includes a plurality of parameters, and updates at least one processor readable storage device with the plurality of parameters based at least in part on the optimization.
