The present invention minimizes the amount of traffic that traverses the fabric in support of the cache coherency protocol. It also allows rapid transmission of all traffic associated with the cache coherency protocol, so as to minimize latency and maximize performance. A fabric is used to interconnect a number of processing units together. The switches are able to recognize incoming traffic related to the cache coherency protocol and then move these messages to the head of that switch's output queue to insure fast transmission. Also, the traffic related to the cache coherency protocol can interrupt an outgoing message, further reducing latency. The switch incorporates a memory element, dedicated to the cache coherency protocol, which tracks the contents of all of the caches of all of the processors connected to the fabric. In this way, the fabric can selectively transmit traffic only to the processors where it is relevant.

A dragchain substitute in the form of a line guiding assembly comprising at least one line receiving channel for receiving at least one line loosely disposed therein. At least one of the channel walls of each line receiving channel is designed in projecting manner and resilient towards the channel interior relative to a channel wall supporting it, such that the line can be urged from outside of the line receiving channel through the resilient channel wall and into the interior of the line receiving channel and is enclosed in the line receiving channel after said resilient channel wall has resiled.

A line guiding assembly is provided comprising a line assembly including one or more lines and having a first length and a second length extending parallel thereto. The length ends are connected to a stationary element and to a reciprocable element in the line longitudinal direction, respectively. The two lengths merge with each other in loop-shaped manner in a bending portion located therebetween. The line assembly, at least in the portion in which the two lengths are facing each other, is provided with a material having good slidability for sliding on each other. A roller is introduced in the bending portion in such a manner that, upon movement of the reciprocable element, the line assembly performs a rolling motion on the roller.

The present invention provides an improved apparatus and method for the receipt of high-speed sequential data streams. It utilizes the concept of banked memories to reduce the required speed and size of the input buffers used to receive the data streams. This allows the device to employ large, relatively slow memory elements, thereby permitting large amounts of sequential data to be stored by the receiving device. Using control information that was written as the data was being stored in the memory banks, a reordering element is later able to retrieve the data elements from the plurality of memory banks, in an order that is different from that in which the stream was received, and to reassemble the data stream into the original sequence.

An improved architecture for switches and a method for transmitting data with the switching are disclosed. An increased amount of memory is utilized, operating at speeds lower than are required by Input Queued switches, and a simple scheduling algorithm. The architecture divides the input ports into groups, where each input port group has an associated set of memory elements. Incoming packets are routed to the appropriate element in the set of memory elements. The number of groups and the number of ports that are included in each group can be varied, allowing the architecture to be modified based on the system architecture, the semiconductor technology, and other design considerations.

The invention utilizes a separate queue per output port as implemented in the traditional simple queuing schemes of the prior art. Further, it also uses the information found in the packet header to determine the output port and the next output port. Based on this information, it utilizes queues dedicated to congested flows, or “Congested Flow” queues. When the switch determines that, based on the first output port and the second subsequent output port, a packet in the output queue is destined for a congested path, it sets the offending packet aside in a Congested Flow queue, thereby allowing other packets destined for the first output port to continue to be transmitted. In this way, the HOL blocking issue is addressed, without the need for a significantly increased number of output queues.

The weaving machine contains an insertion system for a plurality of generally different weft threads, which comprises for each weft thread a thread supply (2), a thread store (3) and a color selector (4) for the selective serving of the weft threads as well as a rapier (10) for inserting the served weft thread. At least one common thread brake (7) is provided for all weft threads (1) in order to brake the respective served weft thread (1) during the insertion as required. In addition to the simple mechanical construction, the simple handling and controlling are seen as advantageous.
