  • Patent number: 12111780
    Abstract: A system-on-chip (SoC) in which trace data is managed includes a first memory device, a first interface to couple the first memory to a second memory external to the system-on-chip, and a first processing resource coupled to the first interface and the first memory device. The first processing resource includes a data buffer and a first direct access memory (DMA) controller. The first DMA controller transmits data from the data buffer to the first interface over a first channel, and transmits the data from the data buffer with associated trace information for the data to the first memory device over a second channel.

  • Patent number: 12088589
    Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling access in a network of servers, which may include generating a set of nodes including a node for each account of each server. For each respective node, at least one other node of the set of nodes having credential-free access to the respective node may be determined. For each respective node, an edge connecting the respective node to each of the other node(s) of the set of nodes having credential-free access may be generated. The set of nodes and edges may collectively define a graph. For at least a first node, second nodes of the set of nodes that have indirect access to the first node(s) via at least one of the other node(s) having credential-free access to the first node(s) may be determined based on the graph. A system and computer program product are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9835363
    Abstract: Evaporative heat transfer system. The system includes a substrate and a plurality of substantially parallel, spaced-apart ridges extending from the substrate forming vertical liquid manifolds therebetween. A nanoporous membrane is supported on the ridges and a pump delivers a dielectric fluid across the ridges. The fluid is drawn through the liquid manifolds via capillarity provided by the nanoporous membrane and evaporates to dissipate heat flux through the substrate. A preferred dielectric fluid is pentane. It is preferred that membrane porosity vary across the membrane to tailor thermal resistances to limit temperature rises.
