  • Patent number: 12289120
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure propose an Erasing-based Lossless Floating-point compression method, i.e., Elf. The main idea of Elf is to erase the last few bits (i.e., set them to zero) of floating-point values, so the XORed values are supposed to contain many trailing zeros, where the erased bits are determined based on the decimal place count and the digits on the exponent bits.

  • Patent number: 12286952
    Abstract: An ignition method is provided for an internal combustion engine having an engine cylinder and a remote ignition chamber in fluid communication with the main combustion chamber via a tubing assembly. The remote ignition chamber and tube are charged with a first combustible charge gas. The main combustion chamber is charged with a second combustible charge gas. A plurality of high-voltage electrodes arranged along the tube are used to pretreat the first combustible charge gas to generate radicals therein. The pretreated first combustible charge gas is ignited to produce a deflagration flame. A plurality of high-energy discharge sparkplugs arranged along the tube are used to sense a property of the deflagration flame. When the sensed property of the deflagration flame is within predetermined threshold limits, at least one of the high-energy discharge sparkplugs is used to provide a transient high energy spark to the deflagration flame to stimulate deflagration-to-detonation transition.
