Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for video coding. In some examples, the apparatus includes processing circuitry for video encoding. The processing circuitry selects a resolution from a set of resolutions that includes a 1-integer-pel resolution and a 4-integer-pel resolution. A current block is encoded with an intra block copy mode based on the selected resolution. The processing circuitry determines a block vector of the current block. The processing circuitry determines a block vector difference of the current block based on the block vector and a block vector predictor of the current block. The block vector difference is in the selected resolution. The processing circuitry encodes prediction information indicating the selected resolution and the block vector difference.

Abstract: A method of video processing in a decoder includes determining, by a processor, an initial block vector for predicting a current block in a current coding tree unit (CTU) in response to the current block being predicted in an intra block copy (IBC) mode. The initial block vector is determined based on a merge index included in a coded video bitstream. The method further includes performing, by the processor, template matching based on the initial block vector indicated by the merge index in the video bitstream to determine a refined block vector that points to a reference block in a picture as the current block, and reconstructing, by the processor, the current block based on the reference block.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for video encoding/decoding. An apparatus for video decoding includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry checks an inferable condition for a flag of a specific prediction mode for a current block before parsing the flag of the specific prediction mode for the current block from a coded video bitstream. The specific prediction mode is one of a plurality of inter picture prediction modes. When the inferable condition indicates that the flag is inferable, the processing circuitry infers the flag without parsing the flag from the coded video bitstream. When the inferable condition indicates uncertainty for inferring the flag, the processing circuitry parses the flag from the coded video bitstream. Then, the processing circuitry reconstructs the current block according to the specific prediction mode when the flag is indicative of an application of the specific prediction mode on the current block.

Abstract: A multi-slot connector having reduced DIMM-to-DIMM pitch distances can support up to 64 memory channels for next generation DDR (double data rate) technology, including DDR6. To support the increase in memory channels, while compensating for limited form factor motherboards, the multi-slot connector includes two or more slots for devices, such as DIMMs, to connect to a motherboard or other platform. Reduced pitch distances between the DIMMs, shortened connector pins, thinner contacts, and complementary reduced pitch distances in a ball grid array (BGA) used to connect to the motherboard or other platform, provides a compact multi-slot connector that can support up to 64 memory channels with improved performance characteristics. An optional cooling device can be employed between the slots as needed to maintain optimal performance.
