摘要:
A WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) communication device and method are provided where a MAC (Medium Access Control) control unit controls access to a wireless medium. The MAC control unit is capable of selectively applying any one of at least two different control mechanisms to data to be transmitted. The data received from a target system comprises data frames, each having associated an individual control header comprising control information. The control information specifies at least one control mechanism to be applied to data of the associated data frame. The MAC control unit extracts control information from each control header associated to a data frame, and selects a control mechanism specified by the extracted control information.

A wireless computer system (30) is formed to have a host section (31) and a wireless hardware section (40). A first portion of a transmission frame is formed in system memory (36) of a host section (31) and a second portion of the transmission frame is formed in the wireless hardware section (40). The wireless hardware section (40) begins transmitting the first transmission frame portion while downloading the second transmission frame portion from the system memory (36) into the wireless hardware section (40).

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for accessing memories having a time-variant response over a PCI bus by using two-stage DMA transfers. The invention provides a method for executing a read request over a PCI bus by transferring the requested data from a main memory of a PCI card to a device located on the PCI bus, comprising the steps of obtaining an access request from a read access queue, transferring, by a first DMA transfer, the requested data from the main memory to a buffer memory on the PCI card, and transferring, by a second DMA transfer, the data from the buffer memory to the device.

A wireless computer system (30) is formed to have a host section (31) and a wireless hardware section (40). A first portion of a transmission frame is formed in system memory (36) of a host section (31) and a second portion of the transmission frame is formed in the wireless hardware section (40). The wireless hardware section (40) begins transmitting the first transmission frame portion while downloading the second transmission frame portion from the system memory (36) into the wireless hardware section (40). Bus latencies are masked by at least overlapping transmitting the first portion of the transmit frame while downloading the second portion.
摘要:
A system is provided that facilitates read access in a memory device. The system comprises a plurality of row addresses buffers that store high order addresses associated with one or more software threads. The system further comprises a plurality of row data buffers. The row data buffers are each associated with at least one row address buffer and store row data within the range of the high order addresses of the row address buffers. The system increase memory device performance by limiting the latency associated with context switching. The plurality of row address buffers and row data buffers enables software threads to associate with one or more buffers and maintain efficient subsequent memory accesses despite context switching.

A memory buffering system is disclosed that arbitrates bus ownership through all arbitration scheme for memory elements in chain architecture. A unified host memory controller arbitrates bus ownership for transfer to a unified memory buffer and other buffers within the chain architecture. The system is used within a communication system with a bus in chain architectures and parallel architectures.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for receiving and transmitting asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cell streams over a bus. The invention provides a method for receiving ATM cells in a host from a client over a bus, comprising the steps of determining whether an ATM cell in a first storage device within the client is ready to be transferred over the bus to a second storage device within the host, preventing overflow of the second storage device by calculating a first available cell space in the second storage device as a function of a write value, a read value image and a size value of the second storage device, and transferring an ATM cell from the first storage device to the second storage device.
