Abstract: A peripheral device includes a processor, a memory interface, a host interface and a cache controller. The processor executes software code. The cache memory caches a portion of the software code. The memory interface communicates with a NVM storing a replica of the software code. The host interface communicates with hosts storing additional replicas of the software code. The cache controller is to determine whether each host is allocated for code fetching, to receive a request from the processor for a segment of the software code, when available in the cache memory to fetch the segment from the cache memory, when unavailable in the cache memory and at least one host is allocated, to fetch the segment from the hosts that are allocated, when unavailable in the cache memory and no host is allocated, to fetch the segment from the NVM, and to serve the fetched segment to the processor.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing one or more map segments to one or more vehicles are disclosed. In one implementation at least one processor is programmed to receive navigational information from a vehicle, the navigational information including an indicator of a location of the vehicle, an indicator of a speed of the vehicle, and an indicator of a direction of travel of the vehicle; analyze the received navigational information and determine a potential travel envelope for the vehicle; and send to the vehicle one or more map segments including map information for a geographical region at least partially overlapping with the potential travel envelope of the vehicle.

Abstract: A volumetric segmentation method is disclosed for brain region analysis, in particular but not limited to, regions of the basal ganglia such as the subthalamic nucleus (STN). This serves for visualization and localization within the sub-cortical region of the basal ganglia, as an example of prediction of a region of interest for deep brain stimulation procedures. A statistical shape model is applied for variation modes of the STN, or the corresponding regions of interest, and its predictors on high-quality training sets obtained from high-field, e.g., 7T, MR imaging. The partial least squares regression (PLSR) method is applied to induce the spatial relationship between the region to be predicted, e.g., STN, and its predictors. The prediction accuracy for validating the invention is evaluated by measuring the shape similarity and the errors in position, size, and orientation between manually segmented STN and its predicted one.

Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring life signs in a subject. A radar unit comprising generates raw data and a processor unit receives raw data and identifies oscillating signals in a series of arrays of complex values representing radiation reflected from each voxel of a target region during a given time segment. A phase value is determined for each voxel in each frame and a waveform representing phase changes over time for each voxel is generated. Voxels indicating an oscillating signal are selected and life sign parameters are extracted.

Abstract: An automatic injection device has an insertion needle configured to be inserted into a patient and a drug container which contains a pharmaceutical product. The drug container includes a stopper. The automatic injection device also has a fluid path which fluidly connects the drug container to the insertion needle. The automatic injection device further has a drive system configured to cause parallel linear movement of the stopper to force the pharmaceutical product into the fluid path. The drive system has a driving element and a movable element. The automatic injection device additionally has electronics configured to provide a signal to the drive system to move the stopper and have means for sensing the stopper position. The movable element has an outer magnet at least partially surrounding the drug container and an inner magnet inside the drug container.

Abstract: A system and method to synchronize independent local clocks in multi-core processing system are disclosed. A shared counter or a shared memory/file is provided to establish a partial happened-before relationship (e1<e2 in the happened-before order if we know that the event e1 happened before the event e2) and a synchronizer device is utilized to generate a global time of events in threads or processes.

The synchronizer device estimates each clock's start time and approximates elapsed time between events in threads or processes by executing an all-pair shortest-path algorithm.
