  • Publication number: 20250250076
    Abstract: A bottle assembly has a bottle and a removable cap. The cap includes a nozzle and a vent arrangement. The vent arrangement can include a vent conduit that extends into an air cavity present at the bottom of the bottle assembly when the bottle assembly is inverted. The vent arrangement allows for pressure equalization within the bottom assembly in response to liquid being dispensed from the bottle assembly to permit high flow rates of the dispensed liquid without squeezing of the bottle.

  • Publication number: 20250199850
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficiently scheduling kernels for execution in a computing system. In various implementations, a computing system includes a cache and a processing circuit with multiple compute circuits and a scheduler. The scheduler groups kernels into scheduling groups where each scheduling group includes particular kernels of the multiple kernels that access a same data set different from a data set of another scheduling group. Each of these scheduling groups is referred to as a “cohort.” The scheduler accesses completion time estimates of kernels of the cohorts. Using the completion time estimates, the number of kernels currently executing, and the number of remaining kernels that have not yet begun execution of each currently scheduled cohort, the scheduler determines whether to immediately schedule a next cohort or delay scheduling the next cohort. By doing so, the scheduler balances throughput and cache contention.
