The method includes steps of receiving input information, determining the location/position of different NoC agents, interconnecting channels, pins, I/O interfaces, physical/virtual boundaries, number of layers, size/depth/width of different channels at different time, and locating/configuring the different NoC agents, interconnecting channels, pins, I/O interfaces, and physical/virtual boundaries.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates dialog states, which computers use to internally represent what users have in mind in dialog. A dialog state tracker employs various rules that enhance the ability of computers to correctly identify the presence of slot-value pairs, which make up dialog states, in utterances or conversational input of dialog. Some rules provide for identifying synonyms of values of slot-values pairs in utterances. Other rules provide for identifying slot-value pairs based on coreferences between utterances and previous utterances of dialog sessions. Rules are also provided for carrying over slot-value pairs from dialog states of previous utterances to a dialog state of a current utterance. Yet other rules provide for removing slot-value pairs from candidate dialog states, which are later used as dialog states of utterances.

Abstract: A method for determining a flow speed of a liquid in a fluid conduit is provided. During a signal-generating phase, an impulse signal is applied to a first ultrasonic transducer. A response signal is then received at a second ultrasonic transducer. A measuring signal is later derived from the response signal, wherein the derivation comprises reversing a signal portion with respect to time. During a measurement phase, a liquid moves with respect to the fluid conduit. The measuring signal is then applied to one of the two transducers and a response signal of the measuring signal is measured at the other transducer. A flow speed is derived from the response signal of the measuring signal.

Abstract: A variety of methods and arrangements for implementing a start/stop feature in a skip fire engine control system are described. In one aspect, the implementation of the start/stop feature involves automatically turning off an internal combustion engine under selected circumstances during a drive cycle. A determination is made that the engine should be restarted. During the engine startup period, the engine is operated in a skip fire manner such that a desired engine speed is reached.

Abstract: Digital content interaction prediction and training techniques that address imbalanced classes are described. In one or more implementations, a digital medium environment is described to predict user interaction with digital content that addresses an imbalance of numbers included in first and second classes in training data used to train a model using machine learning. The training data is received that describes the first class and the second class. A model is trained using machine learning. The training includes sampling the training data to include at least one subset of the training data from the first class and at least one subset of the training data from the second class. Iterative selections are made of a batch from the sampled training data. The iteratively selected batches are iteratively processed by a classifier implemented using machine learning to train the model.

Abstract: A cache memory includes cache lines to store information. The stored information is associated with physical addresses that include first, second, and third distinct portions. The cache lines are indexed by the second portions of respective physical addresses associated with the stored information. The cache memory also includes one or more tables, each of which includes respective table entries that are indexed by the first portions of the respective physical addresses. The respective table entries in each of the one or more tables are to store indications of the second portions of respective physical addresses associated with the stored information.

Abstract: Techniques are presented for determining current levels based on the behavior of a charge pump system while driving a load under regulation. Rather than diving the load directly, a fixed pump output voltage is used to supply a step-down regulator, which it turn drives the load at the selected voltage. While driving the load under regulation, the number of pump clocks during a set interval is counted. This can be compared to a reference that can be obtained, for example, from the numbers of cycles needed to drive a known load current over an interval of the duration. By comparing the counts, the amount of current being drawn by the load can be determined. This technique can be applied to determining leakage from circuit elements, such as word lines in a non-volatile memory.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided that determine required communications features to be used in a communication session and provide participants of the communication session with an identification of the required communications features. When a communication device used by the participant does not include one of the required communications features, the user is provided access to those features, based on compatibility. When a communication device is found to be compatible, the communication device accesses the features by running communications applications having the required communications features.

Abstract: The present invention involves processes and equipment for handling chloride in an ionic liquid alkylation system. The processes involve not only breaking down the organic chloride to active HCl for ionic liquid activation, but also recovering HCl in the effluent downstream to maintain the HCl requirements while also reducing HCl emissions. This equipment may be used in conjunction with an isomerization reaction zone which is integrated into the ionic liquid alkylation process to further isomerize n-paraffins to isoparaffins for recycle to the alkylation reaction zone.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods of providing real-time scanning of IP addresses. In aspects, input may be received by a real-time IP scanning system. The system may generate one or more work orders based on the input. A scanner associated with the system may access a work order and attempt to communicate with one or more devices identified by the work order. If the attempted communication with a device is successful, a protocol analyzer may be used to provide a predefined payload to the device. If the response from the device matches an expected string, the device may be determined to be a safe and/or legitimate device. If the response from the device does not match an expected string, the device may be determined to be a malicious device.
