  • Patent number: 12289283
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, computer readable instruction media, and other embodiments are described for automated image processing and insight presentation. One embodiment involves receiving a plurality of ephemeral content messages from a plurality of client devices, and processing the messages to identify content associated with at least a first content type. A set of analysis data associated with the first content type is then generated from the messages, and portions of the messages associated with the first content type are processed to generate a first content collection. The first content collection and the set of analysis data are then communicated to a client device configured for a display interface comprising the first content collection and a representation of at least a portion of the set of analysis data.

  • Publication number: 20220256309
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for reducing NAS signaling of LCS and LPP procedures initiated by UE in EMM idle mode and EMM registration state. The disclosed method involves multiple methods of encapsulating LPP/LCS messages into control plane service requests. This makes it possible for the UE and eNB to transmit LPP/LCS messages during the RRC connection establishment procedure, and can be regarded as an extension of the control plane EPS CIoT optimization.

  • Patent number: 10372871
    Abstract: An IC design layout is decomposed into multiple masks to produce an initial output. A post-decomposition optimization is performed. The post-decomposition optimization includes identifying hotspots in the multiple masks, clustering features that contribute to the hotspots into clusters, identifying ones of the clusters that can be relocated to a different mask to eliminate the hotspot, without violating design rules, as reversible clusters, ranking movement of the reversible clusters by comparing the reversible clusters, as potentially moved, to known manufacturability metrics, and moving the reversible clusters to different masks according to the priority established by the ranking, to produce a post-decomposition optimized tape-out. The IC devices are manufactured by applying the post-decomposition optimized tape-out to manufacturing equipment.
