A method for generating chip layout images based on boundary tracking scan line algorithm

This invention discloses a chip layout image generation method based on a boundary tracking scan line algorithm. By designing a sub-image-polygon data structure and establishing a maximum matrix of adjacent polygons in the sub-image, this method improves the boundary scan line algorithm to quickly segment the complete chip layout into sub-images and generate corresponding binary images. The algorithm designs a sub-image bounding box-polygon bounding box data structure to quickly locate which polygons are most likely to intersect with the sub-image. Saving this data constructs the maximum bounding box of all polygons contained in the current sub-image, eliminating the need for the algorithm to calculate the intersection points of polygons with the sub-image, thus reducing the time consumption for intersection point calculation. Furthermore, a boundary tracking method is designed to improve the scan line algorithm. By saving each point in the boundary, when scanning a row, it is not necessary to calculate the intersection points of the scan line and the polygon boundary, further reducing the algorithm complexity.

PendingUS20260198385A1WaferingHigh density
A wafer-scale 3D stacked inference engine integrates stacked logic die and stacked memory die on a unitary silicon substrate with an on-silicon interconnect fabric to execute neural-network models using low-precision arithmetic. Compute chiplets and high-bandwidth memory stacks are coupled across reticle-stitched interconnect regions that form a single all-silicon domain. A redistribution-layer network provides ultra-short-reach links and express lanes for inter-region data movement while a control subsystem issues tile-level schedules that overlap compute and transfer. Wafer-integrated power delivery and microchannel cooling support high density operation, and test access structures enable loopback and boundary-scan verification of stacked connections. The architecture reduces multi-hop latency, improves energy efficiency, and allows large models to be inferenced at wafer scale without leaving the all-silicon domain.

A method and system for dynamic optimization of time-of-use pricing for virtual power plants

This invention discloses a method and system for dynamic optimization of time-of-use pricing in virtual power plants. By acquiring distributed resource power time-series data and user response records, it identifies power fluctuation components and generates price sensitivity coefficients, constructing an elastic response space reflecting user response potential. Boundary scanning of the elastic response space generates a dispatchable capacity envelope; trigger thresholds are set along the envelope, and the timing of energy storage intervention is derived in reverse, forming a time-of-use scheduling strategy. The grid dispatch price is projected onto the elastic space and truncated based on power balance requirements to determine the price fluctuation range. Within this range, user response paths are searched, inflection points of response intensity changes are identified, and stability is evaluated to generate price anchor points. Time interval analysis is performed on the anchor points to obtain price ramp-up rates and change rates, extracting synchronization rate indicators of group response behavior. The synchronization rate is compared with the target value to generate an optimized price sequence, achieving dynamic adaptive adjustment of time-of-use pricing.
