Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for proving feedback on database instructions, identifying, for example, existing patterns and providing suggested replacement instructions. This may have the effect of improving the efficiency of instructions used to create and/or manipulate databases. According to some aspects, these and other benefits may be achieved by parsing received instructions into an organizational structure, traversing the organizational structure for known patterns, and suggesting replacement patterns. In implementation, this may be effected by receiving one or more sets of known patterns and corresponding replacement patterns, parsing received instructions, comparing the known patterns with the parsed instructions, and providing suggested replacement patterns based on one or more known patterns matching the parsed instructions. A benefit of may include reducing Cartesian products during the merging of tables.

Abstract: An apparatus has four transistors. The first and third transistors each have a gate coupled to a first input terminal and second input terminal respectively, a source coupled to a current source and to a first terminal of a bias voltage source, and a substrate coupled to a second terminal of the bias voltage source. The second and fourth transistors each have a gate coupled to the first input terminal and the second input terminal respectively, a source coupled to the drain of the first and third transistors respectively, a drain coupled to a lower voltage supply and a substrate coupled to its source. The bias voltage source increases the threshold voltages of the first and third transistors above the second and fourth transistors, respectively. This ensures that the first and third transistors turn on after the second and fourth transistors, respectively.

Abstract: Generally, the present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for performing task-oriented response generation that can provide advantages for artificial intelligence systems or other computing systems that include natural language processing for interpreting user input. Example implementations can process natural language descriptions of various services that can be accessed by the system. In response to a natural language input, systems can identify relevant values for executing one of the service(s), based in part on comparing embedded representations of the natural language input and the natural language description using a machine learned model.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) includes a current source device configured to generate a bias current. The IC also includes a comparator, a circuit, a memory, and a digital-to-analog circuit (DAC). The comparator has a first input, a second input, and a comparator output. The first input receives a reference voltage, and the second input receives a voltage indicative of a bias current through the IC. The circuit is coupled to the comparator output. The circuit iteratively generates a final trim code based on an output signal from the comparator. The memory stores the final trim code. The DAC controls a level of the bias current through the current source device based on the final trim code.

Abstract: A trust chain having client system and a remote system in a secure connection, wherein an intermediary system associated with the network flow path serves as a signing entity to establish an end to end transitive trust. The intermediate system is a corroborative entity in the operations technology realm of the client system. The remote system serves as the host for a plurality of services in the information technology realm. A two way handshake during the initial secure exchange protocol between a local client application and a remote service is extended to a three way handshake that includes a nonce issued by the remote service on the remote system and a digital signature for the nonce issued by a signature service on an associated intermediate system. The nonce signature is verified authoritatively at the remote system based on the signing certificate of the intermediate system for explicit proof of association.

Abstract: The method provides a multi system trust chain between a client system and a remote system in a secure connection, wherein an intermediary system associated with the network flow path serves as a signing entity to establish an end to end transitive trust. The intermediate system is a corroborative entity in the operations technology (OT) realm of the client system. The remote system serves as the host for a plurality of services in the information technology (IT) realm. A two way handshake during the initial secure exchange protocol between a local client application and a remote service is extended to a three way handshake that includes a nonce issued by the remote service on the remote system and a digital signature for the nonce issued by a signature service on an associated intermediate system. The nonce signature is verified authoritatively at the remote system based on the signing certificate of the intermediate system for explicit proof of association.
