PARALLEL PROCESSING SYSTEM RUNTIME STATE RELOAD
A parallel processing system includes at least three processors operating in parallel, state monitoring circuitry, and state reload circuitry. The state monitoring circuitry couples to the at least three parallel processors and is configured to monitor runtime states of the at least three parallel processors and identify a first processor of the at least three parallel processors having at least one runtime state error. The state reload circuitry couples to the at least three parallel processors and is configured to select a second processor of the at least three parallel processors for state reload, access a runtime state of the second processor, and load the runtime state of the second processor into the first processor. Monitoring and reload may be performed only on sub-systems of the at least three parallel processors. During reload, clocks and supply voltages of the processors may be altered. The state reload may relate to sub-systems.
REDUNDANCY CONTROL DEVICE FOR AIRCRAFT
The redundancy control device includes three controllers that output status signals, a majority voting circuit to which a first voltage or a second voltage is supplied as an output signal through an output line of each controller, a switch provided in each output line, a voltage supply unit provided for each output line to supply the second voltage to the output line when the first voltage is lost, a latch circuit provided for each output line to latch the second voltage when the second voltage is supplied thereto and continue to output the second voltage, a comparison circuit provided for each controller to output a comparison signal based on a comparison of the status signals, and a switch control unit provided for each switch to outputs a switch signal to the switch in response to the comparison signal from the comparison circuit.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRIORITIZED PROCESSING OF ALERTS FROM INFORMATION HANDLING SYSTEMS
A system receives a first alert pertaining to a main part from a managed information handling system, determines whether an alternative part is available at the managed information handling system as a substitute for the main part, and determines a life expectancy of the alternative part. The system may also determine whether an expected level of service can be expected to be provided by the alternative part based on the life expectancy of the alternative part, select between a plurality of levels of criticality to apply to the first alert, and dispatch the first alert for resolution at a selected level of criticality.
Processor for detecting and preventing recognition error
Provided is an image recognition processor. The image recognition processor includes a plurality of nano cores each configured to perform a pattern recognition operation and arranged in rows and columns, an instruction memory configured to provide instructions to the plurality of nano cores in a row unit, a feature memory configured to provide input features to the plurality of nano cores in a row unit, a kernel memory configured to provide a kernel coefficient to the plurality of nano cores in a column unit, and a difference checker configured to receive a result of the pattern recognition operation of each of the plurality of nano cores, detect whether there is an error by referring to the received result, and provide a fault tolerance function that allows an error below a predefined level.
DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH
A networked database management system (DBMS) is disclosed. In particular, the disclosed DBMS includes a plurality of nodes, one of which is elected as a designated leader. The designated leader is elected using a consensus algorithm, such as tabulated random votes, RAFT or PAXOS. The designated leader is responsible for managing open coding lines, and determining when to close an open coding line.

SCALING PERFORMANCE FOR LARGE SCALE REPLICA SETS FOR A STRONGLY CONSISTENT DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM
A system and a method are disclosed that provides a data replication management technique for a distributed environment that eliminates a need to order members of a replica set. A node of a node cluster in the distributed system may be configured to send in parallel an IO request to each respective member of the replica set. Reponses are received from members of the replica set that indicate a completion status of the IO request at the replica set member sending the IO response. A request is sent to other nodes of the node cluster to remove a replica from the replica set based on an error response received from the replica. The replica that responded with the error response is removed from the replica set based on an agreement of nodes of the node cluster to remove the replica from the replica set.
System and method for designating a leader using a consensus protocol within a database management system
A networked database management system (DBMS) is disclosed. In particular, the disclosed DBMS includes a plurality of nodes, one of which is elected as a designated leader. The designated leader is elected using a consensus algorithm, such as tabulated random votes, RAFT or PAXOS. The designated leader is responsible for managing open coding lines, and determining when to close an open coding line.
Data preservation for node evacuation in unstable nodes within a mesh
Described is a system and method that includes executing, by a processing device, a data risk mitigation service (DRMS), to monitor, for each node of a plurality of nodes in a mesh network, at least one of metadata indicating a health state of a node or a call for help from the node. The method includes determining, by the DRMS, whether the node is in an unstable state in view of the metadata or the call for help from the node. The method includes in response to determining that the node is in the unstable state, rerouting incoming data of the node and evacuating data stored in the node.
Updating counters distributed across a plurality of nodes
Techniques are disclosed relating to methods that include initializing, by a computer in a computer system, an event counter that includes a plurality of sub-counter groups, each plurality of sub-counter groups including at least two sub-counters located on different nodes of a plurality of nodes in the computer system. In response to an occurrence of an event associated with the event counter, the method may include the computer selecting a particular sub-counter group of the plurality of sub-counter groups to update, and sending, to sub-counters corresponding to the particular sub-counter group, a request to update a sub-counter value for the particular sub-counter group. In response to a request for a current count value of the event counter, the method may include outputting, by the computer, a sum of the sub-counter values for the plurality of sub-counter groups as the current count value.
