20090216939 | Emulation of abstracted DIMMs using abstracted DRAMs - One embodiment of the present invention sets forth an abstracted memory subsystem comprising abstracted memories, which each may be configured to present memory-related characteristics onto a memory system interface. The characteristics can be presented on the memory system interface via logic signals or protocol exchanges, and the characteristics may include any one or more of, an address space, a protocol, a memory type, a power management rule, a number of pipeline stages, a number of banks, a mapping to physical banks, a number of ranks, a timing characteristic, an address decoding option, a bus turnaround time parameter, an additional signal assertion, a sub-rank, a number of planes, or other memory-related characteristics. Some embodiments include an intelligent register device and/or, an intelligent buffer device. One advantage of the disclosed subsystem is that memory performance may be optimized regardless of the specific protocols used by the underlying memory hardware devices. | 08-27-2009 |
20120102292 | MEMORY MODULE WITH MEMORY STACK AND INTERFACE WITH ENHANCED CAPABILITIES - A memory module, which includes at least one memory stack, comprises a plurality of DRAM integrated circuits and an interface circuit. The interface circuit interfaces the memory stack to a host system so as to operate the memory stack as a single DRAM integrated circuit. In other embodiments, a memory module includes at least one memory stack and a buffer integrated circuit. The buffer integrated circuit, coupled to a host system, interfaces the memory stack to the host system so to operate the memory stack as at least two DRAM integrated circuits. In yet other embodiments, the buffer circuit interfaces the memory stack to the host system for transforming one or more physical parameters between the DRAM integrated circuits and the host system. | 04-26-2012 |

The disclosure addresses the problem of cost-effectively scaling the number of devices securely connected to the Internet. More specifically, some claims are directed to approaches for rapidly adding device subdomains while minimizing the deployment of digital security certificates by observing a fractional subdomain specification and translation protocol, which claims advance the technical fields related to cost-effectively scaling the number of devices securely connected to the Internet, as well as advancing peripheral technical fields. Some claims improve the functioning of multiple systems within the disclosed environments. | 02-19-2015 |
20150052258 | DIRECT MAP PROXY SYSTEM AND PROTOCOL - The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques used in methods, systems, and computer program products for a direct map proxy system and protocol. The claimed embodiments address the problem of flexibly and efficiently mapping to a large number of devices connected to the Internet using domain names. More specifically, some claims are directed to approaches for receiving from a user device a first domain name, mapping it to a different second domain name associated with a target device, and using the second domain name to initiate and establish a connection between the user device and target device, which claims advance the technical fields for addressing the problem of flexibly and efficiently mapping to a large number of devices connected to the Internet using domain names, as well as advancing peripheral technical fields. | 02-19-2015 |
20150088982 | LOAD BALANCED INTER-DEVICE MESSAGING - The present disclosure provides a detailed description of techniques used in methods, systems, and computer program products for using multiple connection URLs to enable load balanced inter-device messaging. The claimed embodiments address the problem of cost-effectively scaling the communications with an increasing number of devices connected to the Internet. More specifically, the claimed embodiments are directed to approaches for registering a listener device (e.g., mobile phone or handset) to receive messages from one or more notification devices (e.g., web camera), selecting a notification server from multiple servers to receive each notification message (e.g., using multiple URLs) and forward the message (e.g., through a push service) to the listener device. The selection of the notification server can be based on load balancing the multiple servers. | 03-26-2015 |
