Abstract:
Integrated circuit devices, methods, and circuitry for performing boundary scan chain testing is provided. Such an integrated circuit device may include a Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) network, a first input/output (IO) subsystem, and a second IO subsystem. The first IO subsystem includes first segmented boundary scan chain circuitry that can receive JTAG Test Data In (TDI) signals from a main JTAG test access port (TAP) of the JTAG network and use the JTAG TDI signals to perform a first boundary scan chain test. The second IO subsystem includes second segmented boundary scan chain circuitry that can receive the JTAG TDI signals from the main JTAG TAP of the JTAG network and use the JTAG TDI signals to perform a second boundary scan chain test in parallel with the first boundary scan chain test.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for performing angled confocal spectroscopy. Angled confocal spectroscopy permits sensitive, non-invasive investigation of numerous analytes in a wide variety of samples, including tissues and bodily fluids. The methods and systems disclosed herein can be used to measure spectroscopic signatures of analytes within well-defined and very small regions of samples, while at the same time achieving superior rejection of signal contributions from analytes within the sample that do not fall within a volume of interest. Accordingly, measurements can be performed at comparatively high signal-to-noise ratios, and can provide information such as concentrations and distributions of sample analytes at high spatial resolution. By using cylindrically-focused illumination light, samples can be excited by a “sheet” of light, allowing spatial signal averaging and enhancing the stability and reproducibility of the measurements.
Abstract:
A method for selecting a subset of at least one traffic sensor includes modeling multiple sensor types to generate at least one sensor model, creating a sample space of at least one sensor combination of multiple sensors, modeling traffic movement of a region, running a traffic simulation based on the at least one sensor model, the sample space of at least one sensor combination and traffic movement of the region, wherein the traffic simulation generates multiple candidate sets of sensors, and selecting a subset of the multiple sensors based on the multiple candidate sets of sensors.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for performing parallel multi-level data computations in a storage system are provided. One system includes a memory storing data, multiple caches, and a processor. The processor is configured to perform the method below. One method includes determining the total amount of data in the memory, dividing the amount of data by each cache capacity to determine the number of nodes needed for processing the data in the memory, and automatically creating the nodes. Here, the nodes form a tree structure including multiple levels where the lowest level includes a first number of nodes equal to the amount of data divided by the cache memory capacity. Also, each lowest level node is configured to process an amount of data equal to the cache memory capacity and each level above the lowest level is configured to include one or more nodes for receiving an input from lower level nodes.
