  • Publication number: 20180107264
    Abstract: Power consumption of an integrated circuit (IC) clock mesh can be managed by a method of clock mesh design. Clock mesh data, including a location of a set of circuit elements and gating information of the set of circuit elements of the clock mesh, can be retrieved. A portion of the clock mesh, known as a local clock mesh, can be identified by analyzing the clock mesh data. The local clock mesh can include a subset of circuit elements having substantially similar clock gating characteristics, and which satisfy a placement density threshold. Mesh clock gating (MCG) cells can be added to wires surrounding the perimeter of the local mesh. MCG cells can be configured to enable and disable clock loads and clock mesh wires within the local clock mesh.

  • Patent number: 9792398
    Abstract: A system provides placement of components for an integrated circuit having a plurality of flip-flops. The system clusters the plurality of flip-flops into a plurality of clusters and relocates one or more of the flip-flops in response to overlapping placement locations. The clustering includes using a K-means algorithm to assign a flip-flop to a cluster while adding weight to each cluster based on its current size.

  • Publication number: 20170097958
    Abstract: Retrieving data records from a database is provided. A query is received by a database access API requesting a number of data records stored in the database. A parallel batch processor is created for data transmittal, and the parallel batch processor is returned to a client program. A next data record responsive to the query is requested, and the next data record is removed from a list of records. The next data record is then provided from the parallel batch processor to the client program.

  • Publication number: 20160332648
    Abstract: A train driving assistance method includes: pre-setting a train traveling line database (S0); acquiring the position of a train (S1); acquiring the position information about the next early-warning point (S2); calculating an early-warning distance between the train and the next early-warning point according to the position of the train and the position information about the next early-warning point (S3); when the early-warning distance is calculated to be smaller than a pre-set value, displaying the early-warning information corresponding to the position information about the next early-warning point (S4); screening an optimal solution according to the train arrival time information and the number brake times of the train (S5); and determining the driving information according to the optimal solution and displaying the determined driving information (S6). Through the method, more driving reference information can be provided for the driver. Also provided is a train driving assistance system.

  • Patent number: 9199885
    Abstract: In order to render sewage sludge suitable for beneficial purposes, it must be disinfected and stabilized. EDC deactivation is rapidly becoming a desirable result of any sludge or biosolids treatment process. Disclosed herein is a process of treating sewage sludge so as to stabilize the sludge that involves the presence of an iron-containing compound during dewatering of the sludge. Process embodiments described also achieve biosolid samples that have reduced EDC activity, Other embodiments disclosed involve use of a combination of iron salts ferrate and ferric chloride that are added to wastewater sludge in the dewatering step before heat drying. The biosolids resulting from sludge treated with aniron-containing compound are able to resist putrefaction for more than two to three weeks.

  • Patent number: 9053277
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for clock tree construction across clock domains, an integrated circuit and fabrication method thereof. A method for clock tree construction includes acquiring a netlist describing an integrated circuit (IC), comprising data for describing physical locations and logic connections of clock sinks belonging to multiple clock domains on the pattern of the IC, and constructing the clock tree across clock domains based on the netlist, such that clock cells belonging to different clock domains can share more physical locations. Accordingly, clock trees can be constructed across clock domains to improve IC performance.
