  • Publication number: 20240129353
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to improve webservers using dynamic load balancers. An example method includes identifying a first and second data object type associated with media and with first and second data objects of the media. The example method also includes enqueuing first and second event data associated with the first and second data object in a first and second queue in first circuitry in a die of programmable circuitry. The example method further includes dequeuing the first and second event data into a third and fourth queue associated with a first and second core of the programmable circuitry, the first circuitry separate from the first core and the second core. The example method additionally includes causing the first and second core to execute a first and second computing operation based on the first and second event data in the third and fourth queues.

  • Publication number: 20230214771
    Abstract: An intelligent supply-chain wide tracking and analysis system is described. In some instances, the system may receive variant data describing a variant of a product from a first client system, generate a variant profile based on the variant data, and determine a connection definition specific to the variant profile and defining a connection between the first client system and a second system. The system may provide access to a first data field containing data in the client profile from the first client system to the second client system based on the connection definition. The system may also receive an inventory value for the variant from the second client system and, using the variant profile and connection definition, provide access to the inventory value to the first client system.

  • Patent number: 10244103
    Abstract: An apparatus monitoring calls of a system includes a processor and memory causing the apparatus to perform operations including capturing recordings of calls in real-time from recorded devices. The processor may further cause the apparatus to compare audio call data of the calls detected by a switch with audio content of recorded calls by recorder devices to determine whether the audio call data matches the audio content of recorded calls. The processor may further cause the apparatus to monitor conditions of recorder devices during calls to determine whether a component(s) of recorder devices or of communication devices exceeds a threshold. The processor may further cause the apparatus to monitor memory in which recorded calls are transferred for archiving to determine whether there is enough storage in the memory. The processor may further cause the apparatus to determine metrics impacting quality of recorded calls and perform analytics on the recorded calls.

  • Patent number: 10020206
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to enhancing the thermal performance of encapsulated flip chip dies. According to an exemplary process, a plurality of flip chip dies are attached on a top surface of a carrier, and a first mold compound is applied over the top surface of the carrier to encapsulate the plurality of flip chip dies. The first mold compound is thinned down to expose a substrate of each flip chip die and the substrate of each flip chip die is then substantially etched away to provide an etched flip chip die that has an exposed surface at the bottom of a cavity. Next, a second mold compound with high thermal conductivity is applied to substantially fill each cavity and the top surface of the second mold compound is planarized. Finally, the encapsulated etched flip chip dies can be marked, singulated, and tested as a module.
