A method for improving performance of generation of digitally represented graphics. The method comprises: receiving a first representation of a base primitive; providing a set of instructions associated with vertex position determination; executing said retrieved set of instructions on said first representation of said base primitive using bounded arithmetic for providing a second representation of said base primitive, and subjecting said second representation of said base primitive to a culling process. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also presented.

Exemplary methods at a content centric networking (CCN) gateway located at an autonomous system (AS), wherein the CCN gateway is communicatively coupled to a CCN domain name system (DNS) server, include receiving, on a first face, a first interest message comprising of a first content name identifying a first content being requested by the first interest message. The methods include in response to determining the first content is not located at the AS, determining a first remote AS name that identifies a first remote AS where the first content is located, generating a first 2-level (2L) content name comprising of the first remote AS name and the first content name, forwarding the first interest message comprising of the first 2L content name, and in response to receiving a first content object (CO) message comprising of the first 2L content name and the first content, forwarding the first content.

Systems and methods for non-blocking implementation of cache flush instructions are disclosed. As a part of a method, data is accessed that is received in a write-back data holding buffer from a cache flushing operation, the data is flagged with a processor identifier and a serialization flag, and responsive to the flagging, the cache is notified that the cache flush is completed. Subsequent to the notifying, access is provided to data then present in the write-back data holding buffer to determine if data then present in the write-back data holding buffer is flagged.
摘要:
A method implemented by a server in communication with a client for supporting an online communication platform for parents of children enrolled at a school. The method includes receiving a class search request from the client describing class search criteria. The server sends a set of virtual classes associated with the selected virtual school that match the class search criteria. The server receives a selection of a virtual class from the client where the virtual class responds to a real-world class offered during an academic term. The server adds a user as a member of the virtual class.

According to one embodiment of the invention, an integrated circuit device comprises one or more processor cores and a control unit coupled to the processor core(s). The control unit is adapted to control an operating frequency of at least one processor core based on an estimated activity level in lieu of a power level. The estimated activity level differing from an estimated power level by being independent of leakage power and voltage characteristics particular to that integrated circuit device.
摘要:
A method of transporting a client signal across an optical transport network (OTN) comprises dividing a received client signal into a plurality of parallel signals at a lower bit rate. The parallel signals are mapped into a respective number of optical data units (ODUs), each ODU having payload bytes and overhead bytes. Each ODU is mapped into a respective optical transport unit (OTUs) having payload bytes and overhead bytes. The OTUs are transmitted across respective optical carriers. Optical channel control information is inserted into the overhead bytes of the ODU and/or OTU. The optical channel control information is used to request a change in the optical carriers used to transport the client signal.
摘要:
A virtual conferencing system is described which provides discussion support services such as during a debate between virtual conference participants. For example, one embodiment of virtual conferencing system comprises: a plurality of clients operated by participants and at least one moderator of a virtual conference, each of the clients comprising state management logic to maintain a current state of the virtual conference; a virtual conferencing service to establish audio and/or video connections between the plurality of clients during the virtual conference, the virtual conferencing service further including a state synchronization service communicatively coupled to the state management logic on each client to ensure that the current state of the virtual conference is consistent on each client; a virtual conferencing graphical user interface (GUI) to be rendered on the plurality of clients, the virtual conferencing GUI configured, via signals sent from the state synchronization service, to display a video stream of one or more current speakers during the virtual conference utilizing the established video connections; and a discussion support module to implement a discussion between two or more selected participants in the virtual conference by generating a discussion configuration including data structures and GUI features required to implement the discussion in response to a set of discussion parameters specified by the virtual conferencing moderator, wherein the discussion configuration implemented by the discussion support module are synchronized to clients through the state synchronization service.
摘要:
An intelligent power allocation architecture for a processor. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises: a plurality of processor components for performing a corresponding plurality of processor functions; a plurality of power planes, each power plane associated with one of the processor components; and a power control unit (PCU) to dynamically adjust power to each of the power planes based on user experience metrics, workload characteristics, and power constraints for a current use of the processor.
摘要:
A method and system provides for path maximum transmission unit (PMTU) discovery (PMTUD) for a multicast distribution implemented in a network using bit indexed explicit replication (BIER) architecture. The network has a set of bit forwarding routers (BFRs) that form a BIER domain including at least one ingress BFR (BFIR) and a set of egress BFRs (BFERs). The method improves efficiency of the PMTUD by limiting probe packet traffic. The method includes selecting a BFER from the set of BFERs in the BIER domain to be processed, generating a probe packet to the selected BFER using a current MTU, sending the probe packet to the selected BFER, and updating the current MTU and adding BFERs identified by a response to the probe packet to the set of BFERs in the BIER domain to be processed.
摘要:
An apparatus and method are described for stacking a plurality of cores. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises: a package; an uncore die mounted on the package, the uncore die comprising a plurality of exposed landing slots, each landing slot including an inter-die interface usable to connect vertically to a cores die, the uncore die including a plurality of uncore components usable by cores within the cores die including a memory controller component, a level 3 (L3) cache, a system memory or system memory interface, and a core interconnect fabric or bus; and a first cores die comprising a first plurality of cores, the cores spaced on the first cores die to correspond to all or a first subset of the landing slots on the uncore die, each of the cores having an inter-die interface positioned to be communicatively coupled to a corresponding inter-die interface within a landing slot on the uncore die when the first cores die is vertically coupled on top of the uncore die, wherein the communicative coupling between the inter-die interface of a core and the inter-die interface of its corresponding landing slot communicatively couples the core to the uncore components of the uncore die.
