摘要:
Techniques are disclosed relating to a three-dimensional computer interface. In one embodiment, an apparatus is disclosed that includes a camera and a proximity sensor. The camera is configured to capture an image that includes an object. In some embodiments, the proximity sensor is configured to perform a measurement operation that includes determining only a single distance value for the object. The apparatus is configured to calculate a location of the object based on the captured image and the single distance value. In some embodiments, the apparatus is configured to determine a motion of the object by calculating a plurality of locations of the object. In some embodiments, the apparatus is configured to identify the object as a user's hand, and to control a depiction of content on a display based on the determined path of motion for the user's hand.
摘要:
A computer system which utilizes processor boards including a first level cache system integrated with the microprocessor, a second level external cache system and a third level external cache system. The second level cache system is a conventional, high speed, SRAM-based, writeback cache system. The third level cache system is a large, writethrough cache system developed using conventional DRAMs as used in the main memory subsystem of the computer system. The three cache systems are arranged between the CPU and the host bus in a serial fashion. Because of the large size of the third level cache, a high hit rate is developed so that operations are not executed on the host bus but are completed locally on the processor board, reducing the use of the host bus by an individual processor board. This allows additional processor boards to be installed in the computer system without saturating the host bus. The third level cache system is organized as a writethrough cache. However, the shared or exclusive status of any cached data is also stored. If the second level cache performs a write allocate cycle and the data is exclusive in the third level cache, the data is provided directly from the third level cache, without requiring an access to main memory, reducing the use of the host bus.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for performing concurrent operations on the host bus, expansion bus, and local I/O bus as well as the processor bus connecting the processor and cache system to increase computer system efficiency. A plurality of CPU boards are coupled to a host bus which in turn is coupled to an expansion bus through a bus controller. Each CPU board includes a processor connected to a cache system including a cache controller and cache memory. The cache system interfaces to the host bus through address and data buffers controlled by cache interface logic. Distributed system peripheral (DSP) logic comprising various ports, timers, and interrupt controller logic is coupled to the cache system, data buffers, and cache interface logic by a local I/O bus. The computer system supports various areas of concurrent operation, including concurrent local I/O cycles, host bus snoop cycles and CPU requests, as well as concurrent expansion bus reads with snooped host bus cycles.
