Abstract: Apparatus for data communications includes a host interface, which is configured to be connected to a bus of a host computer having a processor and a memory. Processing circuitry, which is coupled to the host interface, is configured to receive video data with respect to a sequence of pixels, the video data including data words of more than eight bits per pixel for at least one pixel component of the pixels, and to write the video data, via the host interface, to at least one buffer in the memory while justifying the video data in the memory so that the successive pixels in the sequence are byte-aligned in the at least one buffer.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for a quantum key distribution enabled intra-datacenter network. An example system includes a first vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL), a second VCSEL and a network interface controller. The first VCSEL is configured to emit a first optical signal associated with data. The second VCSEL is configured to emit a second optical signal associated with quantum key distribution (QKD). Furthermore, the network interface controller is configured to manage transmission of the first optical signal associated with the first VCSEL and the second optical signal associated with the second VCSEL via an optical communication channel coupled to a network interface module.

Abstract: A Quadrature Voltage Controlled Oscillator (Quad VCO) based on standard digital cells and delay cells, is adapted to generate two high-frequency output signals that are “in quadrature”, so they both oscillate with similar frequency while exhibiting a mutual phase offset of about 90 degrees, and a) the digital cells include a mix of digital circuits used for implementing standard flip-flop circuits and standard logic gates; and b) the delay cells include circuits accepting a logic signal at their input and outputting a time-delayed version of said input signal, with a time delay that may be varied by a control voltage analog signal that determines the cell delay.

Abstract: In some disclosed embodiments, a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) processes multiple symbols in parallel using a novel architecture that avoids violating a timing constraint. The DFE comprises Feed-Back (FB) filters that can be configured to equalizing nonlinear phenomena. Using a Look-Up Table (LUT)-based implementation, the FB filters may implement complex nonlinear functions at low hardware complexity, low latency and low power consumption. A LUT-based implementation of the FB filter supports adaptive FB filtering to changing channel conditions by updating LUT content.

Abstract: A layout for a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) is provided. In an example embodiment, the layout comprises a VCSEL, an etched shape around a mesa of the VCSEL, a signal contact layer deposited on section of the mesa, and a ground contact layer. The ground contact layer comprises three parts and is positioned around a first section of the etched shape. The first part of the ground contact layer is deposited on a second section of the etched shape. The second and third parts of the ground contact layer comprise two legs off of the first part. The two legs are symmetrically positioned about two sides of the signal contact layer to form a ground-signal-ground configuration.

Abstract: A network adapter includes circuitry and one or more ports. The ports connect to a communication network including multiple network elements. The circuitry accesses outbound messages that are pending to be sent over the communication network to multiple remote nodes via the ports. At least some of the outbound messages request the remote nodes to send respective amounts of data back to the network adapter. Based on the amounts of data requested by the outbound messages, the circuitry forecasts a bandwidth of inbound response traffic, which is expected to traverse a selected network element in response to the outbound messages toward the network adapter, determines a schedule for transmitting the outbound messages to the remote nodes so that the forecasted bandwidth meets a bandwidth supported by the selected network element, and transmits the outbound messages to the remote nodes in accordance with the determined schedule.

Abstract: An apparatus reads a chip design comprising first and second blocks corresponding to first and second hardware modules, nodes, and data path segments that each connect a pair of nodes or a node to a block. Tracing backward along data paths that terminate at the second block, the apparatus identifies a secure cone. The secure cone comprises secure path segments of the data paths terminating at the second block and corresponding nodes. The apparatus identifies data paths originating at the first block and that are at least partially within the secure cone and determines whether any terminate outside the secure cone. When none of the data paths originating at the first block terminate outside the secure cone, the apparatus verifies the chip design. When a data path originating at the first block terminates outside the secure cone, the apparatus determines that the chip design has a potential leak.

Abstract: A communication apparatus includes a host interface, connected to a peripheral component bus so as to communicate with a CPU and a memory of a host computer. A network interface is connected to a network. Packet processing circuitry is configured to receive from a first interface a data packet including a set of one or more headers that include header fields having respective values, to identify, responsively to at least one of the header fields, a corresponding entry in a header modification table that specifies a header modification operation, to modify the set of headers in accordance with the header modification operation, to check whether the entry specifies an additional header modification operation, to output the modified set of headers if the entry does not specify an additional header modification operation, and, if the entry specifies an additional header modification operation, to feed-back the modified set of headers.
