20130067036 | INTELLIGENT DEVICE MEDIA STREAM CACHING - A media stream delivery system encodes numerous media streams into media stream fragments. The media stream delivery system may encode each media stream into a number of variants each having different resolutions, frame rates, audio quality levels, etc. Devices access the media stream fragments from a fragment server in order to reconstruct a particular media stream for playback. A device may perform caching of media stream fragments so that particular fragments need not be accessed from a fragment server. The device monitors and analyzes media streams and viewing characteristics to intelligently select fragments that will likely be needed again, such as fragments associated with repeated advertisements, introduction sequences, and end sequences. | 03-14-2013 |
20140012958 | FRAGMENT SERVER DIRECTED DEVICE FRAGMENT CACHING - The media stream delivery system encodes and fragments media streams into numerous media stream fragments maintained on fragment servers. Devices obtain fragments to reconstruct media streams including live real-time media streams for playback on the devices. A device may perform caching of media stream fragments so that particular fragments need not be accessed again from a fragment server. A fragment server or even a content provider can analyze and monitor characteristics of media streams, viewing behavior, content popularity, etc., to identify fragments for caching at the playback devices. Caching indicators along with time period indicators may be included in the media stream fragments. | 01-09-2014 |

20130107880 | Method and Apparatus for Scalable Network Transaction Identifier for Interconnects | 05-02-2013 |
20130117593 | Low Latency Clock Gating Scheme for Power Reduction in Bus Interconnects - A System-on-a-Chip (SoC) comprising a controller, an activity counter, a reference pattern detection logic, a master pattern detection logic, an arbiter, a comparator, a tracker circuit, a delay cell circuit, and a request mask circuit coupled to a bus. The bus is configured to support master control. The controller is configured to cause components to enter a low power state. The activity counter is configured to monitor activity. The detection logics are configured to operate on an activity based clock or always on clock. The arbiter is configured to select an initiator. The comparator is configured to compare the output of the detection logics. The tracker circuit is configured to track selection of components. The delay cell circuit is configured to store output of components. The request mask circuit is configured to prevent request to arbiter or any arbiter selected request made from a previous clock cycle. | 05-09-2013 |
20130191572 | TRANSACTION ORDERING TO AVOID BUS DEADLOCKS - Methods and apparatus for transaction ordering to avoid bus deadlocks are provided. In an exemplary method, custom routing rules for data transport are defined for data transport between a plurality of masters and a plurality of slaves via a plurality of interconnects, based on a network topology and traffic profile. In an example, the customized rule allows a request address to arbitrate in a first phase of arbitration at a first interconnect in the plurality of interconnects prior to receiving write data associated with the request address at a second interconnect in the plurality of interconnects, and does not allow the request address to arbitrate during a subsequent second phase of arbitration unless the request address beats other competing address requests. | 07-25-2013 |
20140115221 | Processor-Based System Hybrid Ring Bus Interconnects, and Related Devices, Processor-Based Systems, and Methods - Processor-based system hybrid ring bus interconnects, and related devices, systems, and methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, a processor-based system hybrid ring bus interconnect is provided. The processor-based system hybrid ring bus interconnect includes multiple ring buses, each having a bus width and configured to receive bus transaction messages from a requester device(s). The processor-based system hybrid ring bus interconnect also includes an inter-ring router(s) coupled to the ring buses. The inter-ring router(s) is configured to dynamically direct bus transaction messages among the ring buses based on bandwidth requirements of the requester device(s). Thus, less power is consumed than by a crossbar interconnect due to simpler switching configurations. Further, the inter-ring router(s) allows for provision of multiple ring buses that can be dynamically activated and deactivated based on bandwidth requirements. This provides conservation of power when full bandwidth requirements on the processor-based system hybrid ring bus interconnect are not required. | 04-24-2014 |

20100332183 | DYE-DOPED NANOPARTICLES, A METHOD OF MANUFACTURE OF THE SAME, AND A METHOD OF DETERMINING A PERCENTAGE WEIGHT OF A DYE WHICH YIELDS A REQUIRED RELATIVE FLUORESCENT INTENSITY FROM A DYE-DOPED NANOPARTICLE - The invention provides dye-doped nanoparticles comprising silica doped with molecules of a near infra red dye comprising 4,5-Benzo-1′-ethyl-3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-1-(4-sulfobutyl)indodicarbocyanin-5′-acetic acid N-succinimidyl ester, and dye-doped nanoparticles derivatised with a functional group. The invention further provides a method of manufacture of dye-doped nanoparticles comprising the steps of preparing a dye mixture by dissolving a dye in the surfactant hexanol and conjugating the dye with an organosilane, forming a microemulsion of water droplets in oil, adding the dye mixture to the microemulsion, and adding a source of silicon and a catalyst to the microemulsion, which causes growth of silica nanoparticles in the water droplets of the microemulsion which silica nanoparticles are doped with the dye. The invention further provides, in a dye-doped nanoparticle, a method of determining a % weight of the dye which yields a required relative fluorescent intensity from the nanoparticle. | 12-30-2010 |
