U.S. Patent Documents:

  • US9619213B2

    • Full Citation: US9619213B2, "Method and apparatus for efficient data processing using reconfigurable computing resources," published April 11, 2017.
    • Filing Date: April 30, 2015.
    • Brief Description: This patent describes a method and apparatus for efficient data processing utilizing reconfigurable computing resources, often involving FPGAs, to execute tasks.
    • Potential Anticipation: US9619213B2 appears to be broadly relevant to the concepts of using programmable logic components (like FPGAs) and reconfigurable computing for data processing, as mentioned in Claim 1 and Claim 20 of US11886750. The concept of executing data processing operations with a programmable logic component (compute array 142) is a core element in US11886750.

  • US9928178B2

    • Full Citation: US9928178B2, "Dynamic data processing for reconfigurable computing systems," published March 27, 2018.
    • Filing Date: June 17, 2016.
    • Brief Description: This patent details methods for dynamically processing data within reconfigurable computing systems, which can adapt their hardware configuration for different tasks.
    • Potential Anticipation: This patent's focus on dynamic data processing in reconfigurable computing systems could potentially anticipate aspects of Claim 1, Claim 11, and Claim 20, particularly concerning the programmability and adaptability of the compute nodes (programmable logic block 410, compute array 142) for various data processing operations and algorithms.

  • US10114674B2

    • Full Citation: US10114674B2, "Data processing system and method with distributed processing units and optimized data access," published October 30, 2018.
    • Filing Date: June 22, 2017.
    • Brief Description: This patent describes a data processing system and method that utilizes distributed processing units and aims to optimize data access.
    • Potential Anticipation: US10114674B2, with its emphasis on distributed processing units and optimized data access, could potentially anticipate aspects of all three independent claims (Claim 1, Claim 11, and Claim 20) of US11886750, especially regarding the distributed hardware architecture with compute nodes and efficient data movement.

  • US10620861B2

    • Full Citation: US10620861B2, "Scalable distributed data processing system and method," published April 14, 2020.
    • Filing Date: October 26, 2018.
    • Brief Description: This patent describes a scalable distributed data processing system and method.
    • Potential Anticipation: This patent's focus on scalable distributed data processing directly relates to the distributed hardware architecture and the use of multiple compute nodes in series or parallel described in US11886750. Therefore, it may anticipate elements of Claim 1, Claim 11, and Claim 20, particularly concerning the distributed processing environment and the scalability aspects of the system (system 100).

  • US10996841B2

    • Full Citation: US10996841B2, "Memory architecture for high-performance data processing," published May 4, 2021.
    • Filing Date: March 20, 2020.
    • Brief Description: This patent describes a memory architecture designed for high-performance data processing.
    • Potential Anticipation: The memory architecture aspects of US10996841B2 could be relevant to the detailed memory management and data transfer described in US11886750, especially concerning the node memory (node memory 144, 450) and data store (data store 143) interactions. This could potentially anticipate elements within Claim 1 and Claim 11 related to data transfer and memory components.

  • US11119565B2

    • Full Citation: US11119565B2, "Method and apparatus for data reformatting in a data processing system," published September 14, 2021.
    • Filing Date: May 19, 2020.
    • Brief Description: This patent covers a method and apparatus specifically for reformatting data within a data processing system.
    • Potential Anticipation: This patent is highly relevant as it explicitly addresses "data reformatting." The core inventive step of Claim 1 and Claim 11 of US11886750, which involves reformatting data from records with multiple field types into new records with a single field type, could be directly anticipated or rendered obvious by US11119565B2.

Foreign Patent Documents:

  • EP3440733A1

    • Full Citation: EP3440733A1, "Data processing system and method," published February 6, 2019.
    • Filing Date: August 2, 2018.
    • Brief Description: This European patent application describes a data processing system and method.
    • Potential Anticipation: Given its broad title and the earlier publication date than the priority date of US11886750, EP3440733A1 could potentially contain disclosures relevant to the overall system architecture, distributed processing, or data handling methods, potentially anticipating aspects of Claim 1, Claim 11, and Claim 20, depending on its specific technical details.

  • WO2020220268A1

    • Full Citation: WO2020220268A1, "Analytics, algorithm architecture, and data processing system and method," published October 29, 2020.
    • Filing Date: April 24, 2020.
    • Brief Description: This PCT application shares an identical title with US11886750 and is likely a related international application.
    • Potential Anticipation: As this document has the same title as US11886750, it is highly probable to disclose similar or identical subject matter. If its priority date predates that of US11886750 (February 6, 2019), it could be considered prior art anticipating all claims (Claim 1, Claim 11, Claim 20) of US11886750. However, the filing date of April 24, 2020, is after the priority date of US11886750, suggesting it may be a foreign counterpart rather than true prior art for the novelty assessment of the US patent. A deeper analysis would require examining its own priority claims.
