Abstract: A method for a parallelism-aware wavelength-routed optical networks-on-chip design is proposed, which is executed by a computer, the method comprising using the computer to perform the following: providing a WRONoC netlist, design specs and design rules; performing a network construction such that potential positions of each core of a plurality of cores, a plurality of waveguides and a plurality of microring resonators (MRRs) are determined to create a topology; performing a message routing to minimize MRR type usage of the MRRs in the topology; and performing a MRR radius selection to select a radius from MRR-radius options for each MRR type in said topology based on a simulated annealing.

Abstract: A system and method for coding and decoding of an asset having transparency. The method for coding of an asset includes: receiving the asset; obtaining a frame image for each frame in the asset, the frame image having an integer value for each of a red channel, a green channel, a blue channel, and a transparent channel; generating a first sub-image and a second sub-image from each frame image, the first sub-image including a mask derived from the transparent channel, the second sub-image including a red channel, a green channel, and a blue channel derived from the red channel, the green channel, and the blue channel of the frame image respectively; placing the first sub-image in proximity to the second sub-image; and generating a combined asset including a series of combined frames, each combined frame including the first first sub-image in proximity to the second sub-image.

Abstract: There is provided a system and method for automated overlay insertion to a video. The method includes: associating each overlay with one or more overlay categories; detecting scene categories within each frame and a confidence probability value; adjusting the confidence probability values based on preceding frame groupings; matching overlay categories to comparable adjusted scene categories; generating a selection score for each overlay category that is relative to the probability value for the matched adjusted scene category; randomly selecting an overlay from the one or more overlays, the probability for each overlay based on the respective selection score; and inserting the selected overlay into the video.

Abstract: A system and method for insertion of one or more advertisement assets into a source dynamic video. The method includes: determining a media format of each of the one or more advertisement assets; converting each of the media formats for each of the one or more advertisement assets for compatibility with a dynamic media format of the source dynamic media; selecting a portion of a timeline of the source dynamic media for each of the advertisement assets; blending the one or more advertisement assets into the source dynamic media during the respective determined portion of the timeline; encoding the source media and the blended one or more advertisement assets as a combined dynamic media; and outputting the combined dynamic media.

Abstract: A ventilation apparatus with a two-section feedback compensation control and a method for operating the same are disclosed. The ventilation apparatus includes a power conversion unit, a driven circuit, a DC motor, a current-sensing unit, a voltage compensation unit, and a control unit. The power conversion unit receives and converts an AC power voltage into a DC power voltage. The driven circuit receives the DC power voltage and outputs a driven voltage. The DC motor is driven through the driven voltage. The current-sensing unit senses an output current of the DC motor. The control unit receives the output current to compare to a threshold current value, thus controlling the voltage compensation unit. Accordingly, the DC power voltage is adjusted to adjust the speed of the DC motor.
