Publication number: 20250060784Abstract: An electronic device having a display assembly is disclosed. Several layers may combine to form the display assembly. For example, the display assembly may include a touch sensitive layer (or touch detection layer), a display layer that present visual information, and a force sensitive layer (or force detection layer). The display layer may include a bend or curve that allows a portion of the display layer to bend around the force sensitive layer. Also, the connectors (that provide electrical and mechanical connections) may be positioned at different locations of the layers. For example, the display layer may include a connector on a first edge region, and the force sensitive layer may include a connector on a second edge region that is perpendicular, or at least substantially perpendicular, to the first edge region. By positioning the connectors on perpendicular edge regions, the display assembly may reduce its footprint.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2024Publication date: February 20, 2025Inventors: Douglas G. FOURNIER, James R. KROGDAHL, Daniel W. JARVIS, Edward S. HUO, Lee E. HOOTON, Srikanth V. THIRUPPUKUZHI, Garret R. OWOC, Michael NGO, David A. PAKULA, Robert F. MEYER

Publication number: 20250027887Abstract: A load lock system including an imaging subsystem and an image processing subsystem to capture comprehensive data of a substrate within a load lock chamber. The imaging subsystem can include multiple imaging elements (e.g. cameras or image sensors), to capture image data of a substrate. The image processing subsystem can process the image data with a number of computer vision, or feature extraction techniques to identify nonconformities associated with the substrate. These nonconformities can include chips, breaks, scratch, placement errors, orientation errors, or a number of other errors associated with the substrate and substrate components. The image processing subsystem can further output a message indicating any one of these errors have occurred.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2024Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Srikanth V.

Patent number: 11082398Abstract: An approach for securing a DHCP server against unauthorized client attacks in a SDN environment is presented. In an embodiment, a method comprises: determining a count of sub-interfaces implemented on an interface card of a virtual machine; setting a count of unique client identifiers for the virtual machine to zero; determining whether a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) request has been received from the virtual machine; in response to determining that a DHCP request has been received from the virtual machine, incrementing the count of unique client identifiers; determining whether the count of unique client identifiers exceeds the count of sub-interfaces implemented on the interface card of the virtual machine; and in response to determining that the count of unique client identifiers does not exceed the count of sub-interfaces implemented on the interface card of the virtual machine, forwarding the DHCP request to an uplink port.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2017Date of Patent: August 3, 2021Assignee: NICIRA, INC.Inventors: Ankur Kumar Sharma, Srikanth V.

Patent number: 11057459Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for load balancing packets within a data center. The approach leverages dynamically collected and up-to-date health information on each virtual computing instance located within the data center. In one embodiment, health monitoring modules, located within hypervisors of each host computer, collect health statistics on local virtual computing instances. Each health monitoring module shares its locally collected health statistics with every other health monitoring module. Each health monitoring module provides the shared health statistics, on all virtual computing instances within the data center, to a local load balancing module located within the hypervisor of each host computer. Each load balancing module uses health statistics of all virtual computing instances to load balance packets within the data center.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2018Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Jagdish S.

Patent number: 9690530Abstract: A computer method and system to allow reconciliation of documents that were originally part of a first mail production job, but that may have been produced as part of a different second mail production job. A database stores a first record that identifies documents in the first mail production job. The record includes one or more fields indicating a production status of the documents in the first mail production job. At some point in the production process, a document is separated from what was originally defined as the first mail production job, to be instead produced as part of a second mail production job. The database further stores a second record identifying documents in the second mail production job. These records are updated to include a pointer indicating the relationship between the document and the first mail production job and the second mail production job. During mail production the production status of a document is determined.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2012Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: Pitney Bowes Inc.Inventors: Susan L Chapin, Eugene Pritchard, Bruce J Barrows, Srikanth V Dasamandam
