Abstract: A method is provided for communication between a plurality nodes organized as a ring provided with transmission resources at least one of which is a control resource dedicated to transmitting control information and associated with at least one transmission resource, said method comprising the following step executed by a node of the ring: a step of receiving information relating to a reservation of a transmission window of the transmission resource received over the associated control resource. The method further comprises, if the transmission window is reserved by another node of the ring, steps of: comparing the respective volumes of reservations of resources of the ring made by the node in question and by the other node during a reference period; and pre-empting said reservation of the transmission window as a function of the result of the comparison step.

Abstract: This disclosure describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms, e.g., Cyanobacteria, that overexpress an acyl carrier protein (ACP), an acyl-ACP synthase (Aas), or both, optionally in combination with one or more overexpressed or exogenous lipid biosynthesis proteins, and/or one or more overexpressed or exogenous glycogen breakdown proteins. Exemplary biosynthesis proteins include diacyglycerol acyltransferases, thioesterases, phosphatidate phosphatases, phospholipases, triacylglycerol (TAG) hydrolases, fatty acyl-CoA synthetases, and/or acetyl-CoA carboxylases, including combinations thereof. Also included are photosynthetic microorganisms comprising mutations or deletions in a glycogen biosynthesis or storage pathway, which accumulate a reduced amount of glycogen under reduced nitrogen conditions as compared to a wild type photosynthetic microorganism. The modified photosynthetic microorganisms provided herein are capable of producing increased amounts of lipids such as fatty acids and/or synthesizing triglycerides.

Abstract: A system and method for buffering intermediate data in a processing pipeline architecture stores the intermediate data in a shared cache that is coupled between one or more pipeline processing units and an external memory. The shared cache provides storage that is used by multiple pipeline processing units. The storage capacity of the shared cache is dynamically allocated to the different pipeline processing units as needed, to avoid stalling the upstream units, thereby improving overall system throughput.

Abstract: A system and method for converting data from one format to another in a processing pipeline architecture. Data is stored in a shared cache that is coupled between one or more clients and an external memory. The shared cache provides storage that is used by multiple clients rather than being dedicated to separately convert the data format for each client. Each client may interface with the memory using a different format, such as a compressed data format. Data is converted to the format expected by the particular client as it is read from the cache and output to the client during a read operation. Bytes of a cache line may be remapped to bytes of an unpack register for output to a naïve client, which may be configured to perform texture mapping operations. Data is converted from the client format to the memory format as it is stored into the cache during a write operation.

Abstract translation: 一种用于在处理流水线架构中将数据从一种格式转换为另一种格式的系统和方法。 数据存储在耦合在一个或多个客户端和外部存储器之间的共享高速缓存中。 共享缓存提供由多个客户端使用的存储，而不是专用于分别转换每个客户端的数据格式。 每个客户端可以使用不同的格式（例如压缩数据格式）与存储器接口。 在读取操作期间，数据将从特定客户端转换为预期的格式，并从缓存中读取并输出到客户端。 高速缓存行的字节可以重新映射到解包寄存器的字节，以输出到初始客户机，其可以被配置为执行纹理映射操作。 数据从客户端格式转换为存储格式，因为它在写操作期间存储到高速缓存中。

Abstract: One embodiment of the invention sets forth a mechanism for using the L2 cache as a buffer for data associated with read/write commands that are processed by the frame buffer logic. A tag look-up unit tracks the availability of each cache line in the L2 cache, reserves necessary cache lines for the read/write operations and transmits read commands to the frame buffer logic for processing. A data slice scheduler transmits a dirty data notification to the frame buffer logic when data associated with a write command is stored in an SRAM bank. The data slice scheduler schedules accesses to the SRAM banks and gives priority to accesses requested by the frame buffer logic to store or retrieve data associated with read/write commands. This feature allows cache lines reserved for read/write commands that are processed by the frame buffer logic to be made available at the earliest clock cycle.

Abstract translation: 本发明的一个实施例提出了一种使用L2高速缓存作为与由帧缓冲器逻辑处理的读/写命令相关联的数据的缓冲器的机制。 标签查找单元跟踪L2高速缓存中每个高速缓存行的可用性，为读/写操作预留必要的高速缓存行，并将读命令发送到帧缓冲器逻辑进行处理。 当与写命令相关联的数据被存储在SRAM存储体中时，数据片调度器将脏数据通知发送到帧缓冲器逻辑。 数据片调度器调度对SRAM组的访问，并且优先级由帧缓冲器逻辑请求的访问来存储或检索与读/写命令相关联的数据。 该功能允许由帧缓冲器逻辑处理的读/写命令保留的高速缓存行在最早的时钟周期内可用。

Abstract: Management of the activity status of flows in a packet-switched telecommunications network is disclosed. For each packet received belonging to the flow, the location of a flow register in a data structure is determined from an identifier of the flow. An activity status of the flow is determined from an activity credit in the determined flow register. The flow is considered inactive if the activity credit has expired. An updating process progressively and simultaneously reduces the activity credits of the active flows, so that if a flow that has been determined active does not receive a packet during at least the time-out period, the credit of the flow expires at the end of the time-out period.
