A non-contacting inductive interconnect of a three-dimensional integrated circuit includes a first silicon substrate having a first inductive loop. A first layer of high permeability material is deposited on the first silicon substrate that has the first inductive loop forming a first high permeability structure. The circuit further includes a second silicon substrate having a second inductive loop. A magnetic coupling is formed between the first inductive loop and the second inductive loop. The first high permeability structure can enhance the magnetic coupling between the first inductive loop and the second inductive loop. In some embodiments, a second layer of the high permeability material is deposited on the second silicon substrate that has the second inductive loop forming a second high permeability structure. The first high permeability structure and the second high permeability structure can form a magnetic circuit coupling the first inductive loop and the second inductive loop.

Non-contacting inductive interconnects

The hardware component can be operable to track the plurality of taints.

Taint injection and tracking

A processor can be used to ensure that program code can only be used for a designed purpose and not exploited by malware. Embodiments of an illustrative processor can comprise logic operable to execute a program instruction and to distinguish whether the program instruction is a legitimate branch instruction or a non-legitimate branch instruction.

Processor operable to ensure code integrity

An apparatus for identifying active access, by a viewer, of a source containing an advertisement includes a video capture device for recording user interaction in an area and a video processor electrically coupled to the video capture device. The video processor is configured to analyze the video obtained by the video capture device. The video process analysis includes identification of active access, by the viewer, of the source containing the advertisement. The source is electrically decoupled from the video capture device.

Systems and methods for registering advertisement viewing

In some implementations, a processor may include a data structure, such as a translation lookaside buffer, that includes an entry containing first mapping information having a virtual address and a first context associated with a first thread. Control logic may receive a request for second mapping information having the virtual address and a second context associated with a second thread. The control logic may determine whether the second mapping information associated with the second context is equivalent to the first mapping information in the entry of the data structure. If the second mapping information is equivalent to the first mapping information, the control logic may associate the second thread with the first mapping information contained in the entry of the data structure to share the entry between the first thread and the second thread.

Sharing TLB mappings between contexts

Embodiments of memory devices, computer systems, security apparatus, data handling systems, and the like, and associated methods facilitate security in a system incorporating the concept of a security perimeter which combines cryptographic and physical security.

Security perimeter

An embodiment or embodiments of an information handling apparatus can use an entitlement vector to simultaneously manage and activate entitlement of objects and processes to various resources independently from one another. An information handling apparatus can comprise an entitlement vector operable to specify resources used by at least one object of a plurality of object. The information handling apparatus can further comprise a scheduler operable to schedule a plurality of threads based at least partly on entitlement as specified by the entitlement vector.

Entitlement vector for managing resource allocation

A apparatus for controlling heat transfer between portions of a substrate is provided. The apparatus includes a substrate including at least part of a hydraulic circuit, the hydraulic circuit including a plurality of microconduits, the plurality of microconduits including a first microconduit and a second microconduit. The apparatus further includes a liquid metal flowing through the hydraulic circuit and a magnetic field configured to selectively direct the flow of the liquid metal between the plurality of microconduits. The flow of the liquid metal through the hydraulic circuit transfers heat between a first portion of the substrate and the liquid metal.

Microchannel heat transfer with liquid metals

An embodiment of an information handling apparatus can use an entitlement vector to specify resources used by an object of a plurality of multiple objects. The information handling apparatus can include logic for issuing a hint instruction based on the entitlement vector for usage in scheduling the resources.
