    Abstract: Techniques for instruction tagging for intra-object memory tagging are described. In an embodiment, an apparatus includes an instruction decoder to decode a first instruction having an instruction tag value; and execution circuitry coupled to the instruction decoder, the execution circuitry to perform one or more operations corresponding to the first instruction, including generating a first data tag value based on the instruction tag value and a relative enumeration in a pointer to data.

    Abstract: A method and system for error check and scrub (ECS) error data collection and reporting for a memory device. A controller includes circuitry and a buffer. The circuitry may be configured to read ECS error data from a register of a memory device and calculate an ECS error increase rate based on the ECS error data. The circuitry may be configured to inform basic input output system (BIOS) by interrupt if a total number of ECS errors reaches or exceeds an ECS error number threshold or if the ECS error increase rate reaches or exceeds an ECS error rate threshold. The controller may be an out-of-band device, e.g., a baseboard management controller or a memory micro controller.

    Abstract: Techniques for hardware based acceleration of synchronous data flow graphs for data-driven multi-core signal processing systems are described. In certain examples, a system includes a processor comprising a processing circuit to perform a task of a synchronous data flow graph, an input memory for the task of the synchronous data flow graph, an output memory for the task of the synchronous data flow graph, and a synchronous data flow manager circuit to store user-visible state for the input memory and the output memory; and a synchronous data flow functional circuit, coupled to the processor, to cause the processing circuit to perform the task based on the user-visible state from the synchronous data flow manager circuit.

    Abstract: Photonic integrated circuits and optical couplers with improved process tolerance, and methods of forming the same, are disclosed herein. In one example, an integrated circuit package includes a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) to send or receive optical signals and an optical coupler to optically couple the PIC to one or more optical fibers. The PIC includes a first interface with at least two recesses and one or more grooves positioned between the recesses, and the optical coupler includes a second interface with at least two protrusions and one or more ridges positioned between the protrusions (or vice versa). The protrusions on the optical coupler are mated with the recesses on the PIC, and the ridges on the optical coupler are mated with the grooves on the PIC.

    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium is provided. The non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein that when executed by a processor cause the processor to: receive current information of a semiconductor device, calculate an absolute current value of the semiconductor device from the current information and compare the absolute current value with a first threshold; receive information regarding a duration of a forward bias of the semiconductor device and compare the duration with a second threshold if the absolute current value is more than the first threshold; perform a layout review of tap spacing of selected semiconductor device components; and output safe operation area (SOA) information indicating a forward bias junction result based on the absolute current value, the duration of forward bias and the layout review.
