摘要:
A data processing apparatus is disclosed including trace logic for monitoring behaviour of a portion of said data processing apparatus and prediction logic for providing at least one prediction as to at least one step of the behavior of the portion of the data processing apparatus. The trace logic monitors behavior of the portion of the data processing apparatus, determines from the monitored behaviour whether the at least one prediction is correct, and outputs a prediction indicator indicating whether the at least one prediction is correct.

Within a system-on-chip device 2 having multiple processing circuits 4, 6, 8, one processing circuit 4 may serve to perform diagnostic operations upon another processing circuit 8 by accessing diagnostic data relating to that other circuit. Thus, one processor may, for example, control and perform halting mode type diagnostic or code profiling upon another.

A system is described having a JTAG diagnostic unit 2 and a serial wire diagnostic unit 4. A watcher unit 6 is connected to a data connection 14 shared between the diagnostic units 2, 4. Special patterns detected upon the shared data connection 14 serve to switch between diagnostic modes with respective ones of the diagnostic units 2, 4 becoming active.
摘要:
An application programmer's interface provides a facility for accessing metadata describing the content or attributes of information material. The application programmer's interface comprises a signalling protocol processor operable to receive a metadata string which includes a resource identifier providing an address of a metadata resource, and a file transfer processor operable to provide access to the metadata resource in accordance with a request from the application program. The signalling protocol processor provides an efficient facility for communicating the metadata string. The metadata string may be in the form of a mark-up language such as XML. The metadata resource may be for example a proxy version of the information material, such as a video proxy if the information material is video. Accordingly, the file transfer processor is arranged to provide efficient access to the video proxy using the address provided with metadata string. The address may be a Uniform Resource Identifier address allowing access to the resource from any network linked via the World Wide Web. The application programmer's interface therefore provides a standard interface format for making metadata and metadata resources available to application programs.

A processing system 2 is described including a processor unit 4 and a memory 6. Diagnostic hardware 10 within the processing system 2 includes a shadow PC register 12 that stores a shadow program counter value following the true program counter value held within a program counter register 8 of the processor unit 4. The diagnostic hardware 10 is responsive to a program counter request signal from an external diagnostic system 14 to transfer a program counter value into a scan chain 16 from where it can be returned to the diagnostic system 14. The operation of the processor unit 4 is independent of any of the diagnostic operations and so true real time operation of the system may be observed and de-bugged.
摘要:
Aqueous structured surfactants, e.g., lamellar, or preferably spherulitic systems optionally containing suspended solids are used as functional fluids, such as drilling fluids, cutting fluids, hydraulic fluids, heat transfer fluids, construction muds and lubricants. A composition consisting essentially of: water; a surfactant or mixture of surfactants present in a concentration sufficient to form a mobile spherulitic or dispersed lamellar phase in the absence of an electrolyte; and a substantially water insoluble functional material, suspended in the composition, the composition being substantially free from electrolyte.
摘要:
A protective cover for cable connectors and methods of fabricated the protective cover. The protective cover comprises a tube open at one end and substantially closed at the opposed end by an end cap. The end cap bears at least one opening formed therein. The protective cover has a foil outer layer, a soft felt inner layer, and an insulating fiberglass core between the outer and inner layers. The tube is made by overlappingly rolling and bonding a section of foil-backed fiberglass. The end cap may be separately made, made as part of the pattern for the tube, or may be formed by cutting pointed teeth into one end of the tube pattern and bonding them generally perpendicularly to the length of the tube.
摘要:
A data processing apparatus is provided having a hierarchy of layers comprising at least two data processing layers, each data processing layer configured to receive data and to generate processed data for passing to a next lower layer in said hierarchy, according to a protocol specific to that data processing layer. Each data processing layer is configured intermittently to add synchronization information to its processed data, the synchronization information providing semantic information required to interpret the processed data. Each data processing layer is further configured to output its synchronization information in response to a synchronization request signal received from a lower layer in said hierarchy, and at least one data processing layer is configured, when outputting its synchronization information, to issue its synchronization request signal to a higher layer in the hierarchy.

Embodiments of methods and systems for improved gridding of complex networks such as geological fractures are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, a method in accordance with the present disclosure includes adjusting a location of at least one non-fixed pillar of an initial grid, including: establishing a multi-point stencil of pillars that includes the at least one non-fixed pillar; selecting a fixed pillar of the initial grid toward which the non-fixed pillar is to be adjusted; determining a distance from each pillar of the multi-point stencil to the selected fixed pillar; calculating an inverse-distance weighted mean position based on the determined distances of the pillars of the multi-point stencil; and adjusting a position of the at least one non-fixed pillar to the inverse-distance weighted mean position.
摘要:
A method of generating an event log of game events associated with elements in a sporting event. The method includes tracking, within a sequence of video images, image features which correspond to respective elements in the sporting event and selecting, from the tracked image features, a first image feature which corresponds to one of the elements so as to designate that element as a selected element. The method further includes selecting a game event from an event list of possible game events for association with the selected element, and associating the selected game event with the selected element so as to generate the event log.
