Patent number: 11967012Abstract: A method of operation of a texturing/shading unit in a GPU pipeline is used for efficient convolution operations. The method uses texture hardware to collectively fetch all the texels required to calculate properties for a group of output pixels without any duplication. The method then bypasses bilinear filter hardware in the texture hardware and passes the fetched and unfiltered texel data from the texture hardware unit to shader hardware in the texturing/shading unit. The shader hardware uses the fetched texel data to perform a plurality of convolution operations to calculate the properties of each of the output pixel.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Imagination Technologies LimitedInventors: Rostam King, William Thomas

Patent number: 11958374Abstract: An electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) is provided with an integrated arc fault detection circuit interruption (AFCI) device to supply electricity to an electric vehicle (EV) being a load. The EVSE comprises a coupler and an AFCI device including: a controller including a processor and a memory, circuitry and computer-readable firmware code stored in the memory which, when executed by the processor, causes the controller to: detect an arcing level of arcing between the coupler and a charge port of the EV or any other series or parallel arcing within the EVSE, compare the arcing level to a threshold level to determine a hazardous nature of arching, and analyze the arcing level to determine not only if it is currently hazardous but if it is likely to become hazardous in a near term and recommend repair or replacement of the coupler and the charge port before damage occurs.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Siemens Industry, Inc.Inventors: William A.

Patent number: 11946131Abstract: Designs and arrangements for sublimation cells are provided, which enriches an inert carrier gas with organic vapor such that the partial pressure of the organic vapor is highly stable in time. Stability is achieved by controlling the local rates of evaporation along the solid-gas interface through one or more crucibles, thereby reducing the effects of greater headspace and lowering interfacial area as the source depletes. Local evaporation rates also can be controlled using either temperature distribution or convective flow fields.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2018Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Universal Display CorporationInventors: Gregory McGraw, Edwin Van Den Tillaart, William E.

Publication number: 20240095846Abstract: A shared ledger operated by a group of network participants according to a set of consensus rules manages and resolves subrogation claims between a clamant and a defendant with arbitration. Evidence regarding the value of the subrogation claim is sent to the shared ledger by the parties to the subrogation claim such as sending data to a smart contract deployed on the shared ledger. The parties to the subrogation claim or entities that are not parties to the subrogation claim may broadcast data relating to fault to the blockchain. The data relating to fault may be evaluated by the parties or entities acting on the parties' behalf to determine fault. A fault determination may be broadcast to the blockchain based upon the analysis of the data relating to fault. Once the claim is resolved, arbitrator may release funds on the chain to the prevailing party or may accept confirmation that any payments have been made between the parties off-chain.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Shawn M. Call, Jaime Skaggs, Eric Bellas, Douglas A. Graff, William J. Leise, Vicki King, Jacob J. Alt, Eric R. Moore, Stacie A. McCullough

Publication number: 20240091000Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve may include a collapsible and expandable frame that, in an expanded condition, includes a central portion, an atrial portion flaring radially outwardly from the central portion, and a ventricular portion flaring radially outwardly from the central portion. A tube positioned within the frame may have a lumen extending along a longitudinal axis of the frame, wherein the tube is formed of tissue or fabric. Prosthetic leaflets may be directly coupled to the tube to form a valve allowing blood to flow through the lumen of the tube in an antegrade direction but substantially blocking blood from flowing through the lumen of the tube in a retrograde direction. A plurality of cords may each have a first end coupled to the frame and a second end coupled to the tube. Each of the plurality of cords may extend in a radial direction toward the longitudinal axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: St. Jude Medical, Cardiology Division, Inc.Inventors: Alec King, David A.

Patent number: 11934256Abstract: In accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure, a first instance of a data intake and query system (DIQS) may receive latency data that indicates latency states of second instances of the DIQS, the latency states indicative of latencies associated with processing of event data by the plurality of second instances. The first instance may then determine overall latency state of the first instance based, at least in part, on determining number or percentage of the first instance and the second instances of the DIQS having one or more particular latency states, and determining whether the number or percentage of the first instance and the f second instances of the DIQS having the one or more particular latency states is equal to or exceeds a threshold. The first instance may then present the overall latency state of the first instance.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Vitaly Akulov, Amritpal Singh Bath, William King Colgate, Sarah Harun, Jibang Liu, Vishal Patel, Tingjin Xu

Publication number: 20230301299Abstract: Cleaning compositions that include carvacrol, in an amount sufficient to provide an antimicrobial effect. For example, the compositions can include 0.1% to 2% by weight of carvacrol. The cleaning compositions advantageously further include a surfactant, particularly an anionic surfactant, which enhances the antimicrobial efficacy characteristics of the carvacrol. For example, the composition can include at least 0.1%, at least 0.3%, or at least 0.5% of one or more anionic surfactants. Alkyl sulfates (e.g., C8 to C12 alkyl sulfates) are particularly suitable. A buffer may also be present. The compositions may have a relatively high pH, e.g., 9 to 12. The cleaning composition may exhibit a significant log reduction against a target microorganism (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus and/or others) within a given time period (e.g., 10 minutes, 5 minutes, or the like), when used on a target surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Nancy A.
