Publication number: 20240115955Abstract: A machine learning model classifies points of interest in a parallel reality game hosted by a server. The server generates training data sets that include verified properties for points of interest. The machine learning model may predict unverified properties for points of interest. Players in the parallel reality game may input properties for the points of interest. The machine learning model use the received properties from players as inputs to the machine learning model to verify unverified properties or generate new properties for the points of interest. The server may classify the points of interest as suitable for particular activities, and the server may use the classifications for future activities within the parallel reality game.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2022Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Herbert Law, Yuanjian Carla Li, Yuan Zhang, Hang Tan

Patent number: 11782873Abstract: There is described a system and method for managing timeseries data. A timeseries consumer receives timeseries data from multiple devices, provides the timeseries data to a particular partition of a data table based on an insert time of the timeseries data to the data table, and records metadata associated with the timeseries data provided to the particular partition at a track table. A timeseries archiver identifies recent records of the data table based on insert time(s) and archival time(s) of a milestone table, archives the timeseries data of the data table associated with the recent records to an external system, and updates the archival time(s) of the milestone table and the track table. The timeseries purger drops an archived partition of the data table based on determining that all records of the archived partition have been archived.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2020Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: eMeter CorporationInventors: Elena Shur, Tan Li, Thaddeus Jimenez, Brad Johnson

Patent number: 10747668Abstract: A shared cache memory can be logically partitioned among different workloads to provide isolation between workloads and avoid excessive resource contention. Each logical partition is apportioned a share of the cache memory, and is exclusive to a respective one of the workloads. Each partition has an initial size allocation. Historical data can be collected and processed for each partition and used to periodically update its size allocation.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2018Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Zhihao Yao, Tan Li, Sunil Satnur, Kiran Joshi

Publication number: 20200175074Abstract: Nodes in tree data structure can be cached in a cache memory. When the cache memory becomes full, an eviction policy selects cached nodes based on their location in the tree data structure. The eviction policy selects cached nodes that correspond to leaf nodes in the tree data structure as candidates for eviction. The eviction policy selects cached nodes that correspond to internal (non-leaf) nodes from the lowest level possible for eviction, only if there are no cached leaf nodes.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2018Publication date: June 4, 2020Inventors: Tan Li, Zhihao Yao, Sunil Satnur, Kiran Joshi

Patent number: 9355202Abstract: A method of designing integrated circuits includes forming a restricted cell library from a first cell library by selecting only those cells in the first cell library that are most efficient according to predetermined efficiency criteria and executing an integrated circuit design operation in an electronic design automation program while directing the electronic design automation program to make cell selections exclusively from the restricted cell library. The integrated circuit design operation is one that can be directed to make cell selections from any of the cells in the first cell library without changing its essential purpose. The method improves QoR for the resulting circuit design.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2013Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Huang-Yu Chen, Ya Chen Wang, Tan-Li Chou
