Title: A method and system for triggering events
Inventor: DANIEL JOHN JONES
IPC: G06F16/683
Filed: 2017-06-15
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of triggering an event. The method includes receiving a signal stream, detecting a trigger point within the signal stream using a fingerprint associated with the trigger point and triggering an event associated with the detected trigger point. The signal stream may be an analogue signal. The analogue signal may be an audio signal. The audio signal may be from an audio track. The audio signal steam may be received via a microphone. The trigger point may be one of many trigger points. The fingerprint may comprise a plurality of spectral peaks. The spectral peaks may be the highest spectral peaks at a predefined time. The trigger point may be detected by comparing fingerprints for at least some of the trigger points to the signal stream. The signal stream may be processed by fast Fourier transform (FFT) to produce a magnitude spectrum frame. The trigger point may be detected within magnitude spectrum frame.

Title: Pre-loading page table cache lines of a virtual machine
Inventor: SHAKTI KAPOOR
IPC: G06F12/1009
Filed: 2016-09-27
Abstract: Embodiments herein pre-load memory translations used to perform virtual to physical memory translations in a computing system that switches between virtual machines (VMs). Before a processor switches from executing the current VM to the new VM, a hypervisor may retrieve previously saved memory translations for the new VM and load them into cache or main memory. Thus, when the new VM begins to execute, the corresponding memory translations are in cache rather than in storage. Thus, when these memory translations are needed to perform virtual to physical address translations, the processor does not have to wait to pull the memory translations for slow storage devices (e.g., a hard disk drive).
