摘要： A includes a memory device and a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory device. The processing device is to: initialize a block family associated with the memory device; initialize a timer at initialization of the block family; and aggregate temperature values received from sensor(s) of the memory device over time to generate an aggregate temperature. Responsive to programming a page residing on the memory device, the processing device associates the page with the block family. The processing device closes the block family in response to the aggregate temperature being greater than a first temperature value and the timer reaching a first time value. The processing device closes the block family in response to the aggregate temperature being less than or equal to the first temperature value and the timer reaching a second time value that is greater than the first time value.

摘要： A dual-function heat indicator for monitoring two or more modes of heat exposure is described. A manufacturing process for the dual-function heat indicator is also described. Dual-function heat indicators as described may be useful for monitoring the exposure of host products, with which the dual-function heat indicators may be associated, to cumulative ambient heat exposure and to a peak ambient heat exposure, and for other purposes.

摘要： The disclosed embodiments are related to storing critical data in a memory device such as Flash memory device. In one embodiment, a method performed by a controller of a memory device comprises receiving a critical operation from a host processor, the critical operation accessing a memory array; retrieving a temperature value of the memory array from a temperature sensor; and conditionally processing the critical operation based on the temperature value.

摘要： A method for determining a thermal impedance of a sample device is described. According to the method, a sample device is heated to an initial temperature. A pulsed power including a sequence of pulses is applied to the sample device. Temperature of the sample device is measured in a time-dependent manner. A thermal impedance of the sample device is determined based on the temperature of the sample device and the pulsed power.

摘要： A blast furnace control system may include a hardware processor that generates a deep learning based predictive model for forecasting hot metal temperature, where the actual measured HMT data is only available sparsely, and for example, measured at irregular interval of time. HMT data points may be imputed by interpolating the HMT measurement data. HMT gradients are computed and a model is generated to learn a relationship between state variables and the HTM gradients. HMT may be forecasted for a time point, in which no measured HMT data is available. The forecasted HMT may be transmitted to a controller coupled to a blast furnace, to trigger a control action to control a manufacturing process occurring in the blast furnace.

摘要： A method of analyzing conditions pertaining to a shipping container includes determining container characteristics during a trip, which include at least one of a temperature within the container over time, a set point temperature, a number of times the container is opened, a change in contents within the container, or an amount of light within the container over time. Determined trip characteristics include at least one of a number of stops along the trip, an amount of time that passes during the trip, a number of day-night cycles during the trip, or a distance traveled by the container. Container relationships between the determined container characteristics and corresponding characteristics from selected previous trips are determined along with trip relationships between the determined trip characteristics and corresponding characteristics from the previous trips. An output includes information regarding the container relationships, trip relationships, container characteristics and trip characteristics.

摘要： Sensors, systems, and methods for monitoring environmental conditions, such as physical, electromagnetic, thermal, and/or chemical parameters within an environment, over extended periods of time with the use of one or more electromechanical sensing devices and electronic circuitry for processing an output of the sensing devices. The sensing devices each include a cantilevered structure and at least one contact configured for contact-mode operation with the cantilevered structure in response to the cantilevered structure deflecting toward or away from the contact when exposed to the parameter of interest. The cantilevered structure has at least first and second beams of dissimilar materials, at least one of which has at least one property that changes as a result of exposure to the parameter.
