  • Patent number: 11809345
    Abstract: A memory system supports single- and dual-memory-module configurations, both supporting point-to-point communication between a host (e.g., a memory controller) and the memory module or modules. Each memory module includes an address-buffer component, data-buffer components, and two sets of memory dies, each set termed a “timing rank,” that can be accessed independently. The one memory module is configured in a wide mode for the single-memory-module configuration, in which case both timing ranks work together, as a “package rank,” to communicate full-width data. Each of two memory modules are configured in a narrow mode for the dual-memory-module configuration, in which case one timing rank from each memory module communicates data in parallel to appear to the host as single package ranks. The data-buffer components support separate and configurable write and read delays for the different timing ranks on each module to provide read and write leveling within and between memory modules.

  • Patent number: 11049536
    Abstract: A memory device includes a memory control unit and a write output clock device. The memory control unit is used to provide a write input clock and a first control value. The write output clock device produces a plurality of internal clocks based on the write input clock, and selects a target internal clock from the plurality of internal clocks, and further delays the target internal clock to become a write output clock to a memory unit based on the first control value. The memory unit produces a data signal based on the write output clock. The memory control unit identifies whether the write output clock meets the time-sequence requirements of the memory unit. If the time-sequence requirements are not met, the memory control unit changes the first control value and/or changes the selected target internal clock to change the write output clock.

  • Patent number: 10911796
    Abstract: A content provider might be responsible for content transmitted over a large number of channels, including premium channels that may have fixed quality settings. In order to provide the appropriate quality, the encoders for the premium channels are able to obtain the bit rates (and other capacity) needed. The total bit rate used for the premium channels can then be compared against a maximum bit rate for all channels for the provider to determine a remaining bit rate. The remaining bit rate can then be allocated, evenly or otherwise, across the various non-premium channels. Transmission components such as statmuxes used for the non-premium channels can be configured to adjust the bit rates as necessary based at least in part upon the allocation. Such an approach enables the premium channels to provide the fixed quality ensuring that the aggregate bandwidth meets the bit rate limit.

  • Patent number: 10831954
    Abstract: Efficiency of electronic design automation is increased by accessing a data structure characterizing a hierarchical integrated circuit design including sub-blocks each with a plurality of ports. For each given one of the ports of each of the sub-blocks, obtain a wire specification for a corresponding net connected to the given one of the ports in the design, and based on the wire specification, consult a technology-specific lookup table to determine at least one of a corresponding default driving cell and default electrical model for an external wire coupling one of the default driving cell and an actual driving cell to the given one of the ports. Optimize each of the sub-blocks out-of-context based on the at least one of default driving cells and default electrical models; verify in-context closure for the optimized sub-blocks; and, responsive to the in-context closure, update the data structure to reflect the optimized sub-blocks.

  • Patent number: 10783102
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for configuring and operating hardware to sustain real-time hashing throughput. In an embodiment, during a first set of clock cycles, a particular amount of data items of a first data column are transferred into multiple hash lanes. During a second set of clock cycles, the same particular amount of data items of a second data column are transferred into the hash lanes. The transferred data items of the first and second data columns are then processed to calculate a set of hash values. When combined with techniques such as pipelining and horizontal scaling, the loading, hashing, and other processing occur in real time at the full speed of the underlying data path. For example, hashing throughput may sustainably equal or exceed the throughput of main memory.

  • Patent number: 10713265
    Abstract: Methods and systems quantize and compress time series data generated by a resource of a distributed computing system. The time series data is partitioned according to a set of quantiles. Quantized time series data is generated from the time series data and the quantiles. The quantized time series data is compressed by deleting sequential duplicate quantized data points from the quantized time series data to obtain compress time series data. Quantization and compression are performed for different combinations of quantiles. The user may choose to minimize information loss of information due to quantization while selecting a lower bound for the compression rate. Alternatively, the user may choose to maximize the compression rate while placing an upper limit on the loss of information due to quantization. The compressed time series data that satisfies the user selected optimization conditions may be used to replace the original time series data in the data-storage device.

  • Patent number: 10699310
    Abstract: In general, techniques are disclosed to facilitate communicating within computer networks. For example, a layer three (L3) router including a service card and an interface card may be configured to perform the techniques. The interface card receives a query from a network that sources communications in accordance with a plurality of models. The query may specify a customer device and one of the sourced communications, and request that the service card select one of the models for the specified sourced communication and the specified customer device. The service card further stores data defining a profile for the one of the customer devices. The service card may also, in response to the query, analyze the profile data for the specified customer device to determine the selected one of the models for the specified sourced communication with respect to the specified customer device.

  • Patent number: 10666413
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) transmits uplink control information (UCI) and a base station receives UCI when the UE is configured to have a number of cells configured for operation with carrier aggregation (CA). The base station configures the UE with a code rate and the UE determines a maximum UCI payload to transmit in a subframe that results in a transmission code rate that is no larger than the configured code rate. For transmission of aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI), a number of triggering states depends on the number of cells.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for routing audio for audio-video recordings allow a user to record desired audio with captured video at the time the video is being captured. Audio from one or more sources may be routed to the video capture application and recorded with the video. In one or more examples, audio may be routed from another application, e.g., an audio playback application, running on the same device as the video capture application. In another example, audio may be received from a remote device through a wireless connection. Multiple streams of audio content may be mixed together prior to storing with video. The audio, upon reception, may then be routed to the video capture application for recordation. An audio progression bar may also be provided to indicate duration and elapsed time information associated with the audio being recorded.
