A host device SCSI bus controller in SCSI bus system for uniformly distributing I/O tasks, thereby providing all devices equal access to a SCSI bus without decreasing the overall utilization of the bus. The controller prevents system errors from occurring due to I/O tasks not being transmitted when the connectivity of the bus is fully utilized and the bus is operating near saturation. The controller alters the host device performance during the arbitration phase by replacing the single occurrence of the SCSI standard specified arbitration phase with multiple arbitration phases. In the multiple arbitration phases the controller does not assert the host device ID until a user determined time after the completion of the SCSI standard specified arbitration phase. When the host device has an I/O command to transmit, SCSI bus controller executes a first arbitration phase, wherein it does not assert the host device ID unless there are no reselecting target devices and not until a user defined time after the SCSI standard specified arbitration delay has completed. This gives a reselecting target device the opportunity to gain control over the SCSI bus. Then, if there are additional reselecting target devices on the SCSI bus, the SCSI bus controller performs additional arbitration phases until the bus is free. At that time, the SCSI bus controller issues the pending I/O command. By delaying the assertion of the host device ID during repeated arbitration phases, the SCSI bus controller enables the remaining target devices the opportunity to sequentially gain control over the SCSI bus. The SCSI bus controller therefore allows all target devices to reselect the host device to complete previously issued I/O tasks prior to the host device issuing additional I/O commands. The SCSI bus controller allows for an exception when a host I/O command is delayed to such an extent that further delay will cause a system error. Under such conditions, the SCSI bus controller asserts the host ID during the next standard arbitration phase. The host will then win arbitration and transmit the critical I/O command.

A method of packet processing by a network switch appliance includes receiving a first packet at a first network port of the network switch appliance, determining a first workload at the network switch appliance at a first time instant, performing a task to process the first packet when the first workload is below a first prescribed threshold, and passing the first packet to an instrument port at the network switch appliance. A method of packet processing by a network switch appliance includes receiving a first packet at a first network port of the network switch appliance, determining a first resource at the network switch appliance at a first time instant, performing a task to process the first packet when the first resource is above a first prescribed threshold, and passing the first packet to an instrument port at the network switch appliance.
摘要:
The current thickness limitations of battery electrodes are addressed. An electrode includes an electrically conductive porous foam layer, an energy-storage material in contact with the porous foam layer, and electrically conductive porous foam protrusions extending from the porous foam layer into the energy-storage material. The energy-storage material is not contained within the pores of the foam layer or the foam protrusions. These electrodes allow lithium ions (and other metal ions, if desired) to diffuse deeper into a thick energy-storage material layer, compared to conventional planar electrodes. In particular methods, fluidic foam precursors can be templated in a mold, followed by conversion into a solid conductive foam that includes the electrically conductive porous foam protrusions. The result is batteries with surprisingly high energy densities.

A method is described for separating off trace components from a fraction (1) containing at least nitrogen and helium, wherein this fraction is partially condensed (E) before enrichment of the helium. The partially condensed fraction (2) is fed at least in part to at least one separation column (T) and separated therein into a helium-rich gas fraction (6) and a nitrogen-rich liquid fraction which also contains the unwanted trace components (5).
