Abstract: Disclosed are a touch display device (10), a touch driving circuit (TDC), and a touch driving method. When a touch driving circuit drives touch electrodes, there may exist a difference between time constants (e.g., RC delays) of the touch electrodes, the difference between signal delivery lengths of paths through which touch driving signals are received from the touch driving circuit, or the difference between distances thereof from the touch driving circuit. Therefore, provided are a touch display device (10), a touch driving circuit (TDC), and a touch driving method capable of supplying touch driving signals (TDS) having different signal characteristics (e.g., driving frequencies) to touch electrodes (TE) or sensing groups by considering such touch electrode-specific or sensing group-specific difference. By this configuration, without reducing touch sensitivity, the touch sensing time required to sense all of the touch electrodes (TE) can be reduced, and a display driving time can be significantly lengthened, making it possible to implement a display requiring a large screen and high-resolution.

Abstract: The techniques describe adaptive load-balancing based on traffic feedback from packet processors. In one example, a source virtual network node of the network device may determine whether a particular destination packet processor is or may become oversubscribed. For example, source packet processors of the source virtual network node may exchange feedback messages including traffic flow rate information. The source virtual network node may compute a total traffic flow rate and compare the total traffic flow rate with a bandwidth of the particular destination packet processor. In response to determining that the bandwidth of the destination packet processor is oversubscribed, the source virtual network node may update a forwarding plane data structure to reduce a likelihood of selecting the destination packet processor to which to forward packet flows.

Abstract: An optimized testing method is used to determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a particular antimicrobic for use with a particular microbe. The testing method includes iteratively imaging the microbes mixed with various concentrations of the antimicrobic. The images are thereafter processed to determine one or more of the amount/count of the microbes in each image, the total area occupied by the microbes in each image, and the ratio between the area occupied by the microbes and the count of the microbes. Once a sufficient amount of data is collected, the MIC is determined based on one or more of the count, area, and ratio datasets.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to processing in-flight blocks in a processor pipeline according to an expected execution mode to reduce synchronization delays that could otherwise arise due to transitions among processor modes with varying privilege levels (e.g., user mode, supervisor mode, hypervisor mode, etc.). More particularly, a program counter associated with an instruction block to be fetched may be translated to one or more execute permissions associated with the instruction block and the instruction block may be associated with a speculative execution mode based at least in part on the one or more execute permissions. Accordingly, the instruction block may be processed relative to the speculative execution mode while in-flight within the processor pipeline.

IPC: H04B7/0413
Filed: 2018-03-02
Abstract: A low complexity multiple input multiple output transmitter that transmits a single codeword per channel is disclosed herein. Instead of sending multiple codewords per channel for transmissions that support higher data layer transmissions, the transmitter can send single codewords over multiple channels in order to improve spectral efficiency over a range of signal to interference plus noise ratios. For instance, if a downlink transmission to a user equipment (UE) has a rank of 4, capable of supporting 4 data layers, instead of sending 2 or more codewords over a single downlink control channel, the transmitter can schedule multiple control channels and transmit a single codeword per channel. The transmitter can also include in the signaling to the UE that the multi-codewords are included in multiple downlink control channels.
