Abstract: Embodiments of systems, apparatuses and methods provide enhanced function as a service (FaaS) to users, e.g., computer developers and cloud service providers (CSPs). A computing system configured to provide such enhanced FaaS service include one or more controls architectural subsystems, software and orchestration subsystems, network and storage subsystems, and security subsystems. The computing system executes functions in response to events triggered by the users in an execution environment provided by the architectural subsystems, which represent an abstraction of execution management and shield the users from the burden of managing the execution. The software and orchestration subsystems allocate computing resources for the function execution by intelligently spinning up and down containers for function code with decreased instantiation latency and increased execution scalability while maintaining secured execution.

Abstract: This application provides a method and apparatus for sequence processing, relates to the field of artificial intelligence, and specifically relates to the field of sequence data processing. The method includes: receiving an input sequence (S410); performing self-attention calculation on a first element in the input sequence by using an element included in M windows, to obtain a representation of the first element, where each window includes one element or a plurality of consecutive elements in the input sequence, there is an interval of at least one element between different windows, at least one of the M windows does not include the first element, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 1 (S420); and obtaining, based on the representation of the first element, an output sequence corresponding to the input sequence (S430).

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for dynamic closed loop testing of an emulated ASIC interfaced to a sensor device. An adapter adjusts non-pre-recorded active sensor device data to be readable by an emulated ASIC design by adjusting data rates and performing formatting per a selected compatible interface. The adapter also adjusts control commands generated by the emulated ASIC design, including those generated in response to received and evaluated sensor device data, to be readable by the sensor device. The control commands dynamically cause changes in the data the sensor device subsequently outputs. Exemplary sensor devices include cameras that generate multimedia data in consumer electronics devices.
