A resistive element in an electrochemical artificial neural network, includes a transition metal oxide thin film forming a working electrode, a pair of first electrodes connected to the working electrode, and a reference electrode for electrochemical doping of the working electrode. The biasing of the pair of first electrodes with respect to the reference electrode according to a determination of conductivity between the pair of first electrodes controls the resistance of the working electrode.

A method provides cross enterprise communication in which intermediary communication components carry out cross enterprise communication. The method at a first sending enterprise comprises: receiving a signed encrypted message from a sender within a first enterprise; validating the sender; decrypting the message; encrypting the message for receipt by a second enterprise; signing the encrypted message by the first enterprise; and sending the re-signed re-encrypted message to a second enterprise. The method at the second receiving enterprise comprises: receiving a signed encrypted message from a first enterprise; validating that the first enterprise is the sender; decrypting the message; encrypting the message for receipt by one or more recipients at the second enterprise; signing the encrypted message by the second enterprise indicating that the message is from the first enterprise; and sending the re-signed re-encrypted message to the one or more recipients of the second enterprise.
摘要:
A method and system for distributing tasks from an external application among concurrent database application server instances in a database system for optimum load balancing, based on consensus among the instances. Each application instance identifies a task partition ownership by those in a membership group based on a time window and generates a new membership group and partition ownership based on the current partition ownership. The instance makes the new membership group and partition ownership known to other members by recoding them in the membership table and partition map. Each participation by an instance in the membership group is identified by a random number. The new membership group and partition ownership are generated and adjusted based on an average partition allocation to achieve consensus among the instances.

An improved method of making interconnect structures with self-aligned vias in semiconductor devices utilizes sidewall image transfer to define the trench pattern. The sidewall height acts as a sacrificial mask during etching of the via and subsequent etching of the trench, so that the underlying metal hard mask is protected. Thinner hard masks and/or a wider range of etch chemistries may thereby be utilized.

A computer-implemented method simplifies a netlist, verifies the simplified netlist using induction, and remaps resulting inductive counterexamples via inductive trace lifting within a multi-algorithm verification framework. The method includes: a processor deriving a first unreachable state information that can be utilized to simplify the netlist; performing a simplification of the netlist utilizing the first unreachable state information; determining whether the first unreachable state information can be inductively proved on an original version of the netlist; and in response to the first unreachable state information not being inductively provable on the original netlist: projecting the first unreachable state information to a minimal subset; and adding the projected unreachable state information as an invariant to further constrain a child induction process. Adding the projected state information as an invariant ensures that any resulting induction counterexamples can be mapped to valid induction counterexamples on the original netlist before undergoing the simplification.

A memory system and data processing system for controlling memory refresh operations in dynamic random access memories. The memory controller comprises logic that: tracks a time remaining before a scheduled time for performing a high priority, high latency operation a first memory rank of the memory system; responsive to the time remaining reaching a pre-established early notification time before the schedule time for performing the high priority, high latency operation, biases the re-order queue containing memory access operations targeting the plurality of ranks to prioritize scheduling of any first memory access operations that target the first memory rank. The logic further: schedules the first memory access operations to the first memory rank for early completion relative to other memory access operations in the re-order queue that target other memory ranks; and performs the high priority, high latency operation at the first memory rank at the scheduled time.

A method for mirroring virtual machines from a primary host to a secondary host. The method includes tracking changes for each of a plurality of memory pages and processor states for one or more primary host virtual machines. Responsive to an occurrence of a checkpoint, the primary host virtual machines are stopped. A determination is made if each of the memory pages is frequently changed. In response to the memory page being frequently changed, the frequently changed memory page is marked as being writeable and copied to a buffer. In response to the memory page being infrequently changed, the infrequently changed memory page is marked as being read only. The one or more primary host virtual machines are resumed. A copy of the memory pages, the buffer and changes to the processor states are transmitted to the secondary host.

A system and computer program product allocates energy entitlement to a logical partition (LPAR) executing on a data processing system. An energy entitlement allocation (EEA) utility enables an administrator to specify a minimum and/or maximum energy entitlement and An LPAR priority. When the relevant LPARs utilize the respective minimum energy entitlement based on respective energy consumption, the EEA utility determines whether the LPAR (and other LPARs) has satisfied a respective maximum energy entitlement. When the LPAR has not satisfied its maximum energy entitlement, the EEA utility allocates unused energy entitlement from the data processing system to the LPAR, according to an allocation policy. Additionally, the EEA utility dynamically adjusts a priority level for the LPAR to efficiently control resource allocation, according to the LPAR's energy consumption relative to its energy entitlement. In addition, the EEA utility is able to transfer unused energy entitlement to other data processing systems requiring further allocation of energy entitlement.

The present application provides a method and system for Cross Domain Single Sign On. The method comprises: receiving a request from a user to a service provider; processing the user request prior to relaying the request to the service provider; forwarding the processed request to the corresponding service provider according, to the type of request; in response to receiving a response to the request from the service provider, processing the response, and forwarding the processed response to the user. By adopting the method and system of the present application, a Single Sign On management proxy is introduced as a united management system for a session lifetime of the user. The SSO management proxy manages operations of logging in, checking a session expiration and recovering, logging out, URL mapping, error processing, and access control, and effectively improves the availability, security, functional continuity of the service as well as the user's experience.

A method provides efficient dispatch/completion of an N Dimensional (ND) Range command in a data processing system (DPS). The method comprises: a compiler generating one or more commands from received program instructions; ND Range work processing (WP) logic determining when a command generated by the compiler will be implemented over an ND configuration of operands, where N is greater than one (1); automatically decomposing the ND configuration of operands into a one (1) dimension (1D) work element comprising P sequentially ordered work items that each represent one of the operands; placing the 1D work element within a command queue of the DPS; enabling sequential dispatching of 1D work items in ordered sequence from to one or more processing units; and generating an ND Range output by mapping the 1D work output result to an ND position corresponding to an original location of the operand represented by the 1D work item.
