USING ENTROPY TO PREVENT INCLUSION OF PAYLOAD DATA IN CODE EXECUTION LOG DATA
Using entropy to prevent inclusion of payload data in code execution log data. Embodiments determine that a payload data item associated with code execution log data has entropy exceeding a defined entropy threshold and identify a particular executable code that interacted with the payload data item. Embodiments then take a preventative action that excludes the payload data item from inclusion with a record of execution of the particular executable code. Examples of preventative actions include preventing the payload data item from being exported from the computer system, preventing the payload data item from being included in the code execution log data, and adding the payload data item to a block list in reference to the particular executable code.
Methods and systems are provided for training a machine learning model to generate density values and radiance components based on positional data, along with a weighting scheme associated with a particular view direction based on directional data to compute a final RGB value for each point along a plurality of camera rays. The positional data and directional data are extracted from set of training images of a particular static scene. The radiance components, density values, and weighting schemes are cached for efficient image data processing to perform volume rendering for each point sampled. A novel viewpoint of a static scene is generated based on the volume rendering for each point sampled.
A method disclosed herein provides for receiving, at a user device, a media stream including frames of a first resolution generated by a graphics-rendering application and utilizing one or more weight matrices pre-trained in association with the graphics-rendering application to locally upscale each received frame of the media stream at the user device to a second resolution greater than the first resolution. Local upscaling of the media stream may be performed "on the fly," such as with respect to individual content streams (e.g., a game) or segments of content streams (e.g., a scene within a game).
The discussion relates to disaggregated computing. One example can monitor multiple two-phase liquid immersion tanks. Individual two-phase liquid immersion tanks can contain multiple components of a single type of component type. The example can receive requests for virtual machines and allocate sets of components from individual two-phase liquid immersion tanks to work together to support the virtual machines requests.
A cloud-computing system dynamically manages allocation of infrastructure nodes and compute nodes in an edge zone of the cloud-computing system. The edge zone begins with a first number of infrastructure nodes and a second number of compute nodes. As the edge zone executes customer workloads, the cloud-computing system determines whether the infrastructure nodes are over utilized or under utilized. When the infrastructure nodes are under utilized, the cloud-computing system re-assigns an infrastructure node to the compute nodes. When the infrastructure nodes are over utilized, the cloud-computing system re-assigns a compute node to the infrastructure nodes. In this way, the cloud-computing system dynamically maintains an optimal balance between resources devoted to supporting the edge zone (the infrastructure nodes) and resources devoted to executing customer workloads (the compute nodes). In other words, the cloud-computing system continually maximizes use of edge zone resources for executing the customer workloads while maintaining necessary infrastructure.

A second video unit different from the first video unit is encoded based on the encoding parameter. In this way, it is possible to achieve a better quality of experience (QOE) for real time communication with computation overhead being reduced.

Embodiments are provided for imaging an operating system (OS) by creating a new OS image from an installer OS image copy maintained in durable storage. During the OS imaging, only a subset of OS files from the installer image are fully copied into the new OS image. Placeholder files are created for other files not included in the initial subset of OS files which were determined to be critical for booting of the OS and/or a minimum set of OS functionality. The placeholder files are distinguished from sparse files and are inaccurately presented by the file system as being full copies of the underlying installer OS image. The data for the placeholder files is only copied when requested, on demand, and/or when there is available/unused processing bandwidth that is subsequently identified after rebooting the computing system with the new OS image.

Garbage collectors and other software may utilize performant lock-free multithreaded software. Unitary lock-free updates to a set of variables involves an updating value Z, release barriers and acquire barriers that enforce orderings on code execution, and atomicity resulting from variable alignment. Conveyance is accomplished with a values placing step and a values retrieving step. Values placing replaces a non-updated value in Var1 with Z, executes a release barrier, replaces the non-updated values of other variables with update values, executes another release barrier, and replaces Z with the Var1 update value. Values retrieving reads from Var1 into DestVar1A, executes an acquire barrier, reads from the other variables into respective destination variables, executes another acquire barrier, reads from Var1 into DestVar1B, and repeats if DestVar1A is Z or if DestVar1A and DestVar1B are unequal. This solution conveys the update values without locks, as a unit.

The platform may encrypt the code and provide it to a computing device comprising a hardware enclave. The computing device may load the encrypted code into the hardware enclave but load the data into memory outside the hardware enclave. The computing device may request a decryption key from an authentication server using a hash of the hardware enclave signed by a processor. The authentication server may provide the decryption key if it verifies the signature and the hash. The computing device may decrypt the code and mark the hardware enclave as non-readable.

Managing secondary objects efficiently increases garbage collection concurrency and reduces object storage requirements. Aliveness marking of secondary objects is integrated with aliveness marking of referenced objects. Allocation of reference-sized secondary object identifier fields in objects which are not primary objects is avoided; a dedicated bit specifies primary objects, together with an object relationship table. A primary object is one with at least one secondary object which is deemed alive by garbage collection if the primary object is alive, without being a referenced object of the primary object. Any referenced objects of the alive primary object will also still be deemed alive. Code paths for marking referenced objects can be shared to allow more efficient secondary object marking. Primary-secondary object relationships may be represented in dependent handles, and may be specified in a hash table or other data structure.
A client is able to decompress an internal portion of a compressed file on a server without having to download and decompress the part of the compressed file that precedes the internal portion. Initially, when the file is compressed, the state of the compressor, e.g., a dictionary, is periodically captured and stored in association with positions in the compressed file. A server stores the compressor states and positions in association with the compressed file. The client identifies the internal section of the compressed file to the server. The server selects a compressor state whose position is closest to the internal section. The server sends the client the selected compressor state and the internal portion of the compressed file. The client primes a decompressor with the sent compressor state, and the primed decompressor then decompresses the internal portion of the compressed file.
Environment type validation can provide a tamper-resistant validation of the computing environment within which the environment type validation is being performed. Such information can then be utilized to perform policy management, which can include omitting verifications in order to facilitate the sharing of policy, such as application licenses, from a host computing environment into a container virtual computing environment. The environment type validation can perform multiple checks, including verification of the encryption infrastructure of the computing environment, verification of code integrity mechanisms of that computing environment, checks for the presence of functionality evidencing a hypervisor, checks for the presence or absence of predetermined system drivers, or other like operating system components or functionality, checks for the activation or deactivation of resource management stacks, and checks for the presence or absence of predetermined values in firmware.

Garbage collection (GC) to reclaim memory in computing systems sometimes suspends applications, web services, and other mutator programs in order to scan their execution stacks, which reduces their responsiveness. But suspension times are decreased by behavior-driven stack scan optimization (BDSSO) functionality that increases the concurrency of mutator execution with GC stack scanning. BDSSO obtains execution stack frame occurrence data, determines frame execution likelihoods, selects a stack scan depth based on the likelihoods, and installs a scan return barrier at the selected depth. Then the GC scans the execution stack below the barrier while the mutator runs, thus increasing concurrency and improving mutator responsiveness. Selected barrier locations vary according to actual stack activity to provide optimized concurrency instead of using an inflexible approach to barrier placement. Existing profiler samples or virtual machine interfaces can be reused by BDSSO. Skinny samples that lack profiler performance data may also be used.
Utilizing diffgrams for trace indexing and replay. A subset of instructions of a trace, beginning with a first instruction and ending with a second instruction, are replayed to obtain state of one or more named resources. Based on replaying the subset of instructions, a diffgram is generated, which is structured such that addition of the diffgram at the first instruction brings the one or more named resources to the second state, and subtraction of the diffgram at the second instruction brings the one or more named resource to the first state. A pat of reaching a target instruction, the diffgram is later added at the first instruction to restore the second state at the second instruction, or subtracted at the second instruction to restore the first state of the first instruction.

DEFERRING CACHE STATE UPDATES IN A NON-SPECULATIVE CACHE MEMORY IN A PROCESSOR-BASED SYSTEM IN RESPONSE TO A SPECULATIVE DATA REQUEST UNTIL THE SPECULATIVE DATA REQUEST BECOMES NON-SPECULATIVE
Deferring cache state updates in a non-speculative cache memory in a processor-based system in response to a speculative data request until the speculative data request becomes non-speculative is disclosed. The updating of at least one cache state in the cache memory resulting from a data request is deferred until the data request becomes non-speculative. Thus, a cache state in the cache memory is not updated for requests resulting from mispredictions. Deferring the updating of a cache state in the cache memory can include deferring the storing of received speculative requested data in the main data array of the cache memory as a result of a cache miss until the data request becomes non-speculative. The received speculative requested data can first be stored in a speculative buffer memory associated with a cache memory, and then stored in the main data array if the data request becomes non-speculative.

A function processing service may receive a request to execute source code. The source code may include instructions to perform a function. The function processing service may determine whether at least one hardware acceleration condition has been satisfied for the function. If at least one hardware acceleration condition has been satisfied, the instructions in the source code may be translated into hardware-specific code corresponding to a hardware circuit. The hardware circuit may be configured based on the hardware-specific code, and the hardware circuit may perform the function. The function processing service may then provide the result obtained from the hardware circuit to the requesting entity.
Combined operational steps and device characteristics help preserve data against integrity threats. Data is divided into critical data and non-critical data, based on criteria such as customer requirements, workload criticality, or virtual machine criticality. Data may be generated in a compute node for storage in a storage node, for example. Critical data is stored in a battery-backed memory aperture at physical addresses where it will be flushed ahead of the non-critical data due to a flush order imposed by or on the battery-backed memory, e.g., a bottom-up NVDIMM flush order. Redundant copies of the data (especially non-critical data) may also be kept in case it does not get flushed in time. Battery-backed memory apertures are sized and located according to their battery's characteristics, and may be relocated or resized as conditions change. Flush defragging is performed to optimize use of the aperture, especially within the portion that holds critical data.

A computing system is described herein that expedites deep neural network (DNN) operations or other processing operations using a hardware accelerator. The hardware accelerator, in turn, includes a tensor-processing engine that works in conjunction with a scalar-processing unit (SPU). The tensor-processing engine handles various kinds of tensor-based operations required by the DNN, such as multiplying vectors by matrices, combining vectors with other vectors, transforming individual vectors, etc. The SPU performs scalar-based operations, such as forming the reciprocal of a scalar, generating the square root of a scalar, etc. According to one illustrative implementation, the computing system uses the same vector-based programmatic interface to interact with both the tensor-processing engine and the SPU.
Systems and methods to determine when a media is a high-fidelity reproduction of an original media from a trusted entity are disclosed. In certain aspects, systems and method for generating a fragile watermark are disclosed. The fragile watermark may be inserted into digital media in a manner such that the watermark cannot be identified if the media content is significantly altered.

When the fragile watermark is present, provenance of the media content can be verified and an indication of provenance is provided to the user.
Memory is partitioned and isolated in container-based memory enclaves. The container-based memory enclaves have attestable security guarantees. During provisioning of the container-based memory enclaves from a container image, a purported link in the container to a memory address of the enclave is modified to verifiably link to an actual memory address of the host, such as partitioned memory enclave. In some instances, enclave attestation reports can be validated without transmitting corresponding attestation requests to remote attestation services, based on previous attestation of one or more previous container attestation reports from a similar container and without requiring end-to-end attestation between the container and remote attestation service for each new attestation request.

An adjustable-focus PV (picture/video) camera in a mixed-reality head-mounted display (HMD) device operates with an auto-focus subsystem that is configured to be triggered based on location and motion of a user's hands to reduce the occurrence of auto-focus hunting during camera operations. The HMD device is equipped with a depth sensor that is configured to capture depth data from the surrounding physical environment to detect and track the user's hand location, movements, and gestures in three-dimensions. The hand tracking data from the depth sensor may be assessed to determine hand characteristics - such as which of the user's hands or part of a hand is detected, its size, motion, speed, etc. - within a particular region of interest (ROI) in the field of view of the PV camera. The auto-focus subsystem uses the assessed hand characteristics as an input to control auto-focus of the PV camera to reduce auto-focus hunting occurrences.
Described herein is a mechanism for utilizing a neural network to identify and rank search results. A machine learning model is trained by converting training data comprising query-document entries into query term-document entries. The query term-document entries are utilized to train the machine learning model. A set of query terms are identified. The query terms can be derived from a query history. The trained machine learning model is used to calculate document ranking scores for the query terms and the resultant scores are stored in a pre-calculated term-document index. A query to search the document index is broken down into its constituent terms and an aggregate document ranking score is calculated from a weighted sum of the document ranking scores corresponding to the individual query terms. Because the term-document index can be pre-calculated, it can be downloaded to provide deep learning search capabilities in a computationally limited environment.
A method for image-based localization includes, at a camera device, capturing a plurality of images of a real-world environment. A first set of image features are detected in a first image of the plurality of images. Before additional sets of image features are detected in other images of the plurality, the first set of image features is transmitted to a remote device configured to estimate a pose of the camera device based on image features detected in the plurality of images. As the additional sets of image features are detected in the other images of the plurality, the additional sets of image features are transmitted to the remote device. An estimated pose of the camera device is received from the remote device.
The technology described herein builds an optimal refresh schedule by minimizing a cost function constrained by an available refresh bandwidth. The cost function receives an importance score for a content item and a change rate for the content item as input in order to optimize the schedule. The cost function is considered optimized when a refresh schedule is found that minimizes the cost while using the available bandwidth and no more. The technology can build an optimized schedule to refresh content with incomplete change data, content with complete change data, or a mixture of content with and without complete change data. It can also re-learn content item change rates from its own schedule execution history and re-compute the refresh schedule, ensuring that this schedule takes into account the latest trends in content item updates.

REDUCING SYNCHRONIZATION RELIANCE IN GARBAGE COLLECTION MARKING
Memory reclamation is tailored to avoid certain synchronization instructions, speeding concurrent garbage collection while preserving data integrity and availability. Garbage collection reclaims objects no longer in use, or other unused areas of memory. Pointers are partitioned into address portions holding address values and garbage collection portions having a special bit. Marking code writes only the garbage collection portions, setting the special bit as a mark reference, relocation candidate, etc. Mutator threads may concurrently mutate the entire pointer to update the address, but mutation does not cause incorrect reclamations or failure of operations such as relocation. Execution speed is increased by avoiding certain synchronization instructions in the garbage collector, and using different atomic writes instead. Mutators run in user or kernel address spaces. The garbage collector may enclose partitioned pointers and their use, to avoid runtime errors by code that expects references to be in a canonical nonpartitioned form.
A multi-threaded programming language and compiler generates synchronous digital circuits that maintain thread execution order by generating pipelines with code paths that have the same number of stages. The compiler balances related code paths within a pipeline by adding additional stages to a code path that has fewer stages. Programming constructs that, by design, allow thread execution to be re-ordered, may be placed in a reorder block construct that releases threads in the order they entered the programming construct. First-in-first-out (FIFO) queues pass local variables between pipelines. Local variables are popped from FIFOs in the order they were pushed, preserving thread execution order across pipelines.

In a masking phase, a first segment of an amorphous mask is formed on an underlying layer of a substrate. The first segment comprises a first set of trenches exposing the underlying layer. In the masking phase, a second segment of the amorphous mask is formed on the underlying layer. The second segment comprises a second set of trenches exposing the underlying layer. The segments are non-overlapping. An open end of one of the first set of trenches faces an open end of one of the second set of trenches, but the ends are separated by a portion of the amorphous mask. In a semiconductor growth phase, semiconductor material is grown, by selective area growth, in the first and second sets of trenches to form first and second sub-networks of nanowires on the underlying layer. The first and second sub-networks of nanowires are joined to form a single nanowire network.

Methods, systems and computer program products are described herein that enable the identification and correction of incorrect and/or inconsistent tones in the bright regions in an HDR image. A bright region is identified in an image. The bright region is classified into an assigned classification. A luminance value of the bright region is determined and compared to a predefined luminance values corresponding to the classification. The luminance value of the bright region is adjusted to match the predefined luminance values where there is a mismatch. Bright regions including mismatched or incorrect luminance values may be rendered on display to include a visual indicator that such regions include mismatched luminance values.
To increase the speed with which the hierarchical levels of a Second Layer Address Table (SLAT) are traversed as part of a memory access where the guest physical memory of a virtual machine environment is backed by virtual memory assigned to one or more processes executing on a host computing device, one or more hierarchical levels of tables within the SLAT can be skipped or otherwise not referenced. While the SLAT can be populated with memory correlations at hierarchically higher-levels of tables, the page table of the host computing device, supporting the host computing device's provision of virtual memory, can maintain a corresponding contiguous set of memory correlations at the hierarchically lowest table level, thereby enabling the host computing device to page out, or otherwise manipulate, smaller chunks of memory. If such manipulation occurs, the SLAT can be repopulated with memory correlations at the hierarchically lowest table level.

Described technologies aid execution control during replays of traced program behavior. Cross-level mapping correlates source code, an intermediate representation, and native instructions in a trace. The trace includes a record of native code instructions which were executed by a runtime-managed program. The trace does not include any executing instance of the runtime. Breakpoints are set to align trace locations with source code expressions or statements, and to skip over garbage collection and other code unlikely to interest a developer. A live debugging environment is adapted to support trace-based reverse execution. An execution controller in a debugger or other tool may utilize breakpoint ranges, cross-level mappings, backward step-out support, and other items to control a replay execution of the trace. Aspects of familiar compilers or familiar runtimes may be re-purposed for innovative execution control which replays previously generated native code, as opposed to their established purpose of generating native code.
Optimizations are provided for interconnecting event sources with event subscribers in a seamless manner so that the native formatting/schema methodologies used by event sources and subscribers will not need to be natively modified. An event grid service is provided as a routing and mapping service. This event grid service receives event data that may be organized in any kind of format. By analyzing the format, the event grid service determines whether the format correlates with a format used by a consumer of that event data. If the formats conform, then the event grid service extracts relevant data from the event data and pushes it to the subscriber. If the formats do not conform, the event grid service intelligently generates a mapping to map the two formats together.
Features of the present disclosure solve the above-identified problem by implementing techniques to detect the contact or proximity of a stylus to a display screen of a computer device in the absence of pressure information within the constraints of existing pen protocols. To this end, a digitizer associated with the display screen of the computer device may determine when the stylus is touching (or significantly close) the screen when a signal communication between the pen and digitizer exceeds a threshold (e.g., time or voltage).

Trace logging based on an upper cache layer determining how to log an influx by a lower cache layer. A second cache receives, from a lower layer first cache, a logging request referencing a memory address. The second cache determines whether it has a cache line for the memory address. When the cache line is present, the second cache either forwards the request to a next logging cache layer or causes the cache line to be logged if second cache is the outermost logging layer. When the cache line isn't present, the second cache causes the cache line to be logged when the cache line isn't determined by the second cache to be logged, or when it is determined by the second cache to be logged but it is not determined whether the first cache is aware of a current value of the cache line in the second cache.
Trace recording based on recording an influx to a lower-level cache by reference to prior log data, based on knowledge of an upper-level cache. A computing device includes a plurality of processing units, a plurality of N-level caches, and an (N+i)-level cache that is a backing store for the N-level caches. Based on activity of a first processing unit, the computing device detects an influx of data to a first N-level cache. The computing device checks the (N+i)-level cache to determine if the data was already logged for a second processing unit. Based on the check, the computing device (i) causes the data to be logged for the first processing unit by reference to log data (i.e., when the data was already logged), or causes the data to be logged by value for the first processing unit (i.e., when the data was not already logged).
