Abstract: Disclosed are a scheduling-free transmission method and apparatus. The method comprises: monitoring a service interaction state to obtain a service requirement evaluation result; determining whether the service requirement evaluation result represents a low service load, and if so, allocating dedicated resources to a terminal, otherwise, allocating shared resources to the terminal; acquiring a transmission result of data transmission carried out by the terminal based on the allocated resources; and based on the transmission result, sending response information to the terminal according to a pre-set dynamic response rule. In this way, a terminal can transmit data by means of dedicated resources when a service load is low, and the terminal transmits data using shared resources when the service load is high, thereby reducing time delays, preventing resource conflicts, and increasing the transmission rate and reliability.

Title: Machine learning runtime library for neural network acceleration
Inventor: NG AARON
IPC: G06N3/063
Filed: 2018-09-26
Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for interfacing a neural network application (120) with a neural network accelerator (165) using a library (130). The neural network application (120) may execute on a host computing system (105) while the neural network accelerator (165) executes on a massively parallel hardware system, e.g., a FPGA (150). The library (130) operates a pipeline (500) for submitting the tasks received from the neural network application (120) to the neural network accelerator (165). In one embodiment, the pipeline (500) includes a pre-processing stage, an FPGA execution stage, and a post-processing stage (135) which each correspond to different threads. When receiving a task from the neural network application (120), the library (130) generates a packet (410) that includes the information required for the different stages in the pipeline to perform the tasks. Because the stages correspond to different threads (415), the library (130) can process multiple packets in parallel which can increase the utilization of the neural network accelerator (165) on the hardware system.

Abstract: Anchoring means for anchoring a guy line of a tent to the ground are formed by two equally large elongated tent pegs (3, 5) which two are in contact with a main surface (3a, 5b) and can be moved in longitudinal direction relative to each other. For extracting the tent pegs from the ground, one has to pull the tent peg (5). This tent peg is in contact with the ground only with one of its main surfaces (5a) and with the other main surface (5b) is relatively easily movable over the other tent peg (3). After the tent peg (5) has been extracted from the ground along the tent peg (3), the tent peg (3) will be extracted from the ground by further pulling at tent peg (5). This tent peg (3) is also clear of the ground on a main surface (3b), where the tent peg (5) has just been located and can therefore be pulled out of the ground in a simple manner.
