    Abstract: A system in which firmware residing in ROM may be upgraded without re-spinning silicon. A one-bit flag may be assigned for each patchable function representing a firmware upgrade. The first statement of each function may check its associated flag and determine if patch-code should be executed in place of the current function residing in ROM. If the flag is not set, the code may continue executing normally. If the flag is set, a function identifier may be placed into a global memory location, and an assembly language “jump” instruction may be executed, redirecting program control to a specified location in a volatile Scratch Read Only Memory (SROM) where the corresponding patched code may be stored. If more than one function is patched, the global identifier may be used to determine which patched function to execute. Using an assembly language “jump” instruction to redirect control results in the patched function's returning normally to its calling function once it has completed executing.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to Lefty derivatives and the uses of Lefty polypeptides as antagonists of the function of certain ligands such as Nodal, GDF-8 (Myostatin), and GDF-11. These derivatives may be fused to other functional heterologous proteins such as IgG, especially the Fc portion of IgG. According to the disclosure, Lefty polypeptides are useful in the treatment of a variety of disorders, including, for example, neuronal diseases, muscle and bone conditions, and metabolic disorders.

    Abstract: An IR transient thermography imaging system includes high-power flash lamps fitted with spectrally tuned optical filters and a focal-plane array camera for IR image data acquisition. The image data processing control computer analyzes acquired IR image data frames and provides a color-keyed display of an imaged object that correlates to object thickness over the imaged surface area. Acquisition of IR data is initiated at a firing of flash lamps used to heat a surface of the object along with a reference standard. A predetermined number of IR image frames are acquired and recorded over a predetermined period of time after firing of the lamps to develop a temperature-time (T-t) history of the object surface and the reference standard. A contrast curve is calculated for each pixel in the image frame, each pixel corresponding to an elemental region on the object surface. Gaussian temporal smoothing of contrast curve data is performed to improve signal-to-noise characteristics and a derivative of the contrast curve is determined using data points mathematically related to image frame number. All local peaks in the derivative of the contrast curve are identified and given significance according to a predetermined weighting function. The frame number of the most significant peak is used to determine time of occurrence of an “inflection point” in the contrast curve which is then used in determining object thickness. Gain correction of pixel intensity data is employed to offset IR emissivity variations caused by surface curvatures and varying surface conditions on an object.

    Abstract: Dynamically typed registers in a processor are provided by associating a type specifier with a register specifier for each register in the processor, storing the register specifiers and associated type specifiers in a register type table. The type specifier associated with an operand register of an instruction is employed to dispatch the instruction to an appropriate execution unit within the processor. The results of the instruction are stored in a register having an associated type specifier matching the execution unit type. Register specifiers are dynamically allocated to particular execution units within the processor by altering the type specifier associated with the register specifiers. Register values may be either discarded or converted when the register specifier type is altered. A general instruction allows conversion of the value from one type to another without storing the converted value in memory.
