Abstract:
Embodiments include a device and a method. In an embodiment, a method applies a first resource management strategy to a first resource associated with a first processor and executes an instruction block in a first processor. The method also applies a second resource management strategy to a second resource of a similar type as the first resource and executes the instruction block in a second processor. The method further selects a resource management strategy likely to provide a substantially optimum execution of the instruction group from the first resource management strategy and the second resource management strategy.

Abstract:
Embodiments of a lumenally-active system and method of use and control thereof are disclosed. According to various embodiments, a lumenally-active device is positioned in a body lumen of an organism, where the device may sense a parameter of a fluid in the body lumen and perform an action on the fluid. Control logic and/or circuitry may be located on the device, or the system may include a separate control module. Liquid or gaseous fluids may be treated by embodiments of the device. Actions may include, for example, modification of a body fluid by addition or removal of a material, or by modification of a property of a body fluid or a component thereof.
Abstract:

Abstract:
Embodiments include a device, and a method. In an embodiment, a device includes a processor operable to execute an instruction set, and an execution-optimization circuit. The execution circuit includes an execution circuit for receiving an identification of a first instruction to be fetched from the instruction set for execution by the processor, and for pointing to a second instruction of the instruction set of the processor to be fetched for execution by the processor if indicated by an execution-based optimization profile. The execution-based optimization profile being previously derived by a hardware device utilizing data invisible to software and generated during a runtime execution of at least a portion of the instruction set. The execution-optimization circuit may include at least one of a microengine, a micro-programmed circuit, and/or a hardwired circuit.
