Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and processors for reducing memory latency in the presence of barriers. When a barrier operation is executed, subsequent memory access operations are delayed until the barrier operation retires. While the memory access operation is delayed, the memory access operation is converted into a prefetch request and sent to the L2 cache. Then, data corresponding to the prefetch request is retrieved and stored in the L1 data cache. When the memory access operation wakes up, the data for the operation will already be stored in the L1 data cache, reducing the memory latency of the operation.

Abstract translation: 用于在存在障碍的情况下减少内存延迟的方法，设备和处理器。 当执行屏障操作时，后续存储器访问操作被延迟直到屏障操作退出。 当存储器访问操作被延迟时，存储器访问操作被转换为预取请求并被发送到L2缓存。 然后，检索与预取请求对应的数据并存储在L1数据高速缓存中。 当内存访问操作唤醒时，操作数据已经存储在L1数据缓存中，从而减少了操作的内存延迟。

Abstract: A surface treatment robot includes a chassis having forward and rear ends and a drive system carried by the chassis. The drive system includes right and left driven wheels and is configured to maneuver the robot over a cleaning surface. The robot includes a vacuum assembly, a collection volume, a supply volume, an applicator, and a wetting element, each carried by the chassis. The wetting element engages the cleaning surface to distribute a cleaning liquid applied to the surface by the applicator. The wetting element distributes the cleaning liquid along at least a portion of the cleaning surface when the robot is driven in a forward direction. The wetting element is arranged substantially forward of a transverse axis defined by the right and left driven wheels, and the wetting element slidably supports at least about ten percent of the mass of the robot above the cleaning surface.

Abstract: This invention describes soluble, monovalent, non-natural protein molecules that can activate NK cells and certain T-cells to attack specific cellular target cells by attaching the NKG2D-binding portions of monovalent MICA or MICB protein, i.e. their α1-α2 platform domain, to the intended target cell specifically. The α1-α2 domain is contiguous with a heterologous α3 domain that has been genetically modified to bind directly or indirectly to the extracellular aspect of the target cell, thereby serving as the targeting domain. The genetic modification to create a non-natural and non-terminal targeting motif within the α3 domain can include a portion of an antibody, another protein molecule or portion thereof, a peptide, or a non-natural, modified α3 domain of a MIC protein.

Abstract: A showerhead system includes an arm structure adapted to couple to a water pipe to receive water flow therefrom. The arm structure includes a first fluid conduit, a second fluid conduit, and a mode selector operatively coupled to the first fluid conduit and the second fluid conduit. The mode selector transitions between a first setting to direct water flow from a first chamber to a second chamber positioned below the first chamber and a second setting to direct water flow from the first chamber to a third chamber positioned below the first chamber. The second chamber is in fluid communication with the first fluid conduit and the third chamber is in fluid communication with the second fluid conduit. The showerhead system further includes a spray head configured to distribute the water from at least one of the first and second the fluid conduits.
