摘要:
A method for adaptive runtime reconfiguration of a co-processor instruction set, in a computer system with at least a main processor communicatively connected to at least one reconfigurable co-processor, includes the steps of configuring the co-processor to implement an instruction set comprising one or more co-processor instructions, issuing a co-processor instruction to the co-processor, and determining whether the instruction is implemented in the co-processor. For an instruction not implemented in the co-processor instruction set, raising a stall signal to delay the main processor, determining whether there is enough space in the co-processor for the non-implemented instruction, and if there is enough space for said instruction, reconfiguring the instruction set of the co-processor by adding the non-implemented instruction to the co-processor instruction set. The stall signal is cleared and the instruction is executed.

A method of (and system for) of displaying information, includes an extended bus bridge, a graphics adaptor coupled to the extended bridge, and a monitor coupled to the graphics adaptor to display the information, such that the graphics adaptor is localized to the monitor.
摘要:
A computer network system includes a plurality of computers each including a central processing unit (CPU), a memory and at least one peripheral device, a connection fabric having selectable first and second sides, the first side being coupled to a first computer of the plurality of computers and the second side being coupled to at least a second computer of the plurality of computers. Each of the first and second computers performs a negotiation to determine which one of the first and second computers controls resources of the other of the first and second computers.
摘要:
A computer system, includes a mobile computer, a docking station for receiving the mobile computer, a bridge having a first side coupled to the mobile computer and a second side coupled to the docking station, and a flat panel display formed with the docking station for being coupled to the mobile computer via the docking station. The docking station includes a dock housing coupled to a desktop display and including a first bus, and a bridge coupled between the first bus and a second bus, the first bus residing in the dock housing and the second bus for being coupled to the mobile computer.
