摘要: A computer-implemented process for determining a ranked set of solutions to a bipartite graph matching problem, such is involved in multi-target tracking, maximum flow matching, or data association in matching elements of a first set to elements of a second set to minimize the cost of the association. A feature of the process is a partitioning into subproblems such that the most probable solutions are in the smaller subproblems and the computation begins by solving the smallest subproblem in the search for the best solution.

摘要: A Write/Load cache protocol is described which may be used for maintaining cache coherency and performing barrier synchronization in multiprocessor computer systems, and for cooperating with prefetch mechanisms to allow data to be loaded into a central processor unit's (CPU) cache (in both single and multiprocessor systems) in anticipation of future memory references. The new protocol is defined such that when a cache observes a Write/Load command (and associated data item) on a bus to which the cache is attached, the cache is accessed and (a) if the data item is in the cache, the new value of the data item from the bus is copied into and replaces the data item in cache; and (b) if the data item is not in the cache, a new data item is created therein (preferably using the normal cache replacement policy), and the value of the data item on the bus is loaded into the cache. Thus, a protocol is provided which allows cache to be loaded via an external entity, i.e., other than the processor being directly serviced by the cache.

摘要: An optical bus for interconnecting electronic devices. The bus has a substrate with through-holes therein. An optically conductive material is disposed on one side of the substrate. The material fills the through-holes and forms a layer of predetermined thickness on this side of the substrate. In the outer surface of this layer there are facets or angled regions. The surface and facets are optically reflective. Cards or modules are optically connected by means of optical connectors to the through-holes on the opposite side of the substrate. Light emitted by the connector travels to the associated faceted surface from which it reflects towards other faceted surfaces from which it is partially transmitted and partially reflected to another connector. The arrangement permits optical communication between a plurality of electronic devices.

摘要: Suspensions of programs running in a multi-programming environment are made to occur when the footprint of a program to be suspended is relatively small. This occurs when a process releases data or instruction storage in the cache because the program has moved to a different phase of behavior. An interrupt is armed to occur at small-footprint points, and then the point where that occurs is detected.

摘要: A system for the adaptive reordering of sequential decisions in the search of a data base is provided with a device that simplifies and speeds up a heuristic search method by implementing in hardware the computation required for the adaptive reordering. The system includes an arithmetic unit for computing for each decision the ratio p/c where p is the probability of a successful outcome of the decision and c is the cost of computation to make that decision. The arithmetic unit includes a device for estimating the logarithms of the prabability p and the cost c for each decision. Logarithms of ratios p/c are calculated for each decision by subtracting the log c from the log p, and then the logarithms of the ratios for the decisions are compared to produce a priority value for each decision. The decisions are reordered based on the priority value assigned to each decision to obtain the optimal ordering of the decisions.

摘要: An adaptive mechanism is presented in the context of optimization of expert system applications. Both single and multiple processor implementations are disclosed. The mechanism is used to maintain a near-optimal sequence for scanning rule lists in expert systems. For a program containing a sequential-decision chain with many independent or mutually exclusive outcomes with each decision having associated with it some fixed cost and probability, the adaptive mechanism tends to produce the optimal ordering automatically from repeated observations of the execution of the decision chain.
