Technologies for performing switch-based collective operations in a fabric architecture include a network switch communicatively coupled to a plurality of computing nodes. The network switch is configured to identify sub-operations of a collective operation of a collective operation request received from one of the computing nodes and identify a plurality of operands for each of the sub-operations. The network switch is additionally configured to request a value for each of the operands from a corresponding target computing node at which the respective value is stored, determine a result of the collective operation as a function of the requested operand values, and transmit the result to the requesting computing node. Other embodiments are described herein.

If the sequence of a traffic of a first communication link from a communication apparatus to another communication apparatus includes a traffic of a second communication link from that another communication apparatus to a communication apparatus, latency is reduced, thereby saving processing time. If, after data is transmitted from a communication apparatus to another communication apparatus by the upper layer, a data receive response signal is required from that another communication apparatus to the communication apparatus, a predetermined frame including transmission grant information for that another communication apparatus to transmit the receive response signal and data is generated in the communication apparatus. The communication apparatus transmits this generated frame to that another communication apparatus. That is, data and transmission grant information are transmitted from the communication apparatus to that another communication apparatus as a predetermined frame.

Provided is a remote controller for controlling an object placed in a remote location. The remote controller may include: a communication interface configured to form a communication channel with the object; an operator including an input interface configured to receive a user input, and at least one first magnet; a movement sensor configured to detect a movement of the operator generated by the user input, and measure characteristics of the movement of the operator; at least one second magnet disposed around the first magnet; a controller configured to, in response to the detection of the movement, apply a current to at least one of the first magnet and the second magnet to generate a magnetic force applied to the operator, wherein the controller is further configured to adjust the current to change the magnetic force according to the measured characteristics of the movement of the operator.

A distributed radio frequency communication system facilitates communication between a wireless terminal and a core network. The system includes a remote radio unit (RRU) coupled to at least one antenna to communicate with the wireless terminal. The RRU includes electronic circuitry to perform at least a first portion of a first-level protocol of a radio access network (RAN) for communicating between the wireless terminal and the core network. The system also includes a baseband unit (BBU) coupled to the core network, and configured to perform at least a second-level protocol of the RAN. A fronthaul link is coupled to the BBU and the RRU. The fronthaul link utilizes an adaptive fronthaul protocol for communication between the BBU and the RRU. The adaptive fronthaul protocol has provisions for adapting to conditions of the fronthaul link and radio network by changing the way data is communicated over the fronthaul link.

A solution is provided that can be used in a communication node. A case is provided that supports a first circuit board that is connected to a second circuit board via a connection. The first circuit board supports an integrated circuit module and the second circuit board supports a PHY module. A transformer box is mounted on the first circuit board and supports terminals for engagement with a mating connector. A third circuit board can be provided that is parallel to the second circuit board and is mounted on the transformer box so that termination of signals provided to the terminals can take place on a different circuit board than the second circuit board. The third circuit board can also provide power over Ethernet (POE) circuitry.

A gaming system includes a video gaming system and one or more video monitors operatively connected to receive a game video signal. A wager input device is also included in the system and configured to receive a wager on a result in the video game. An image evaluation processing system is connected to receive the game video signal and is configured to evaluate the game video signal to identify a result in the game. The wager resolution system is connected to the image evaluation processing system and to the wager input device, and is configured to receive the wager and the result identified by the image evaluation processing system, and to resolve the wager based at least in part on that result.

A front adapter for connecting to a control device, has a connection device connected to a predetermined system cable for connecting at least one field component, at least one wireless communication interface for wirelessly transmitting and receiving signals to or from at least one wireless one transmitting and/or receiving device which can be connected to a first field unit, and/or at least one bus-capable communication interface for transmitting and receiving signals via a signal bus to or from at least one bus-capable transmitting and/or receiving device which can be connected to a second field device, and a control and/or evaluation device which is adapted to control the transmitting of signals between the control device and the at least one wireless transmitting and/or receiving device and/or the at least one bus-capable transmitting and/or receiving device.

Apparatus and methods are provided for ameliorating distortion issues associated with a conductor that passes over a void in a reference plane. In an example, the signal conductor can include a first part routed over the major surface of a first side of the reference plane structure on a first side of the void and that approaches a first edge of the reference plane structure with a first trajectory, a second part routed over the major surface of the reference plane structure on a second side of the void and that approaches a second edge of the reference plane structure with a second trajectory, and a third portion connecting the first portion with the second portion, the third portion spanning the void, and having a plurality of spurs extending from a body of the third portion.

The present disclosure is directed at methods, systems, and techniques for sharing data in a physical security system that includes multiple server nodes. One of the server nodes (a first node) accesses a node identifier identifying another of the server nodes (a second node), following which the first node sends the data to the second node. Both the first and second nodes are part of a server cluster that includes multiple server nodes, and each of the server nodes in the server cluster has access to cluster membership information. The cluster membership information identifies all of the server nodes in the server cluster, and the node identifier is part of the cluster membership information.

A transmission method includes: generating one or more transfer frames that each store one or more streams used for content transfer; and transmitting the one or more generated frames through broadcast, each of the one or more streams storing one or more second transfer units, each of the one or more second transfer units storing one or more first transfer units, and each of the one or more first transfer units storing one or more Internet Protocol (IP) packets. In at least one stream among the one or more streams, each of the first transfer units positioned at a head contains reference clock information indicating time used for reproduction of the content.
