    摘要: A switching network has a plurality of switches including at least a switch and a managing master switch. At the managing master switch, a first capability vector (CV) is received from the switch. The managing master switch determines whether the first CV is compatible with at least a second CV in a network membership data structure that records CVs of multiple switches in the switching network. In response to detecting an incompatibility, the managing master switch initiates an image update to an image of the switch. In response to a failure of the image update at the switch, the switch boots utilizing a mini-DC module that reestablishes communication between the switch with the managing master switch and retries the image update.

    摘要: A technique for executing normally interruptible threads of a process in a non-preemptive manner includes in response to a first entry associated with a first message for a first thread reaching a head of a run queue, receiving, by the first thread, a first wake-up signal. In response to receiving the wake-up signal, the first thread waits for a global lock. In response to the first thread receiving the global lock, the first thread retrieves the first message from an associated message queue and processes the retrieved first message. In response to completing the processing of the first message, the first thread transmits a second wake-up signal to a second thread whose associated entry is next in the run queue. Finally, following the transmitting of the second wake-up signal, the first thread releases the global lock.

    摘要: A method of performing a built-in-self-test (BIST) of at least one memory element of a circuit is disclosed. In a specific example, a determination is made during running of a BIST whether one or more algorithms are to be run. If any algorithm is not designated for running, the particular algorithm is skipped and the test moves to other algorithms to be run. A BIST controller is configured to perform a group of test algorithms. Certain algorithms from the group may be checked to see if they are to be run or bypassed. A delay or skip state is desirably interposed following the inclusion of a particular algorithm and prior to the start of a next algorithm. A determination is made during the delay or skip state whether the next algorithm is to be run. The user may also have the option of running all of the algorithms if desired for performance of a particular BIST.

    摘要: A versatile testing scheme provides both off-line and on-line integrated circuit testing using common test circuitry. The testing scheme generates test patterns, applies test patterns and compacts test responses to test the integrated circuit. The original design of the integrated circuit may be modified so that the functional units of the original design perform test operations during idle processing cycles in the normal mode of operation. To this end, functional units of the design may be constrained to perform the test function by coordinating the generation and application of the test patterns and the compaction of the test responses with a usage profile of the functional units.

    摘要: A computer-implemented method of modifying a finite element mesh. The method includes providing an original-input-orphan-mesh, selecting and extracting at least a part of the original-input-orphan-mesh as an orphan-element-patch-object, generating faces on the orphan-element-patch-object as a faces-on-mesh-object geometry, generating a new mesh patch element based on the faces-on-mesh-object-geometry and at least one changed meshing-parameter. The changed meshing-parameter is assigned to generate a new mesh patch element that is different to the corresponding original-input-orphan-mesh. The method further includes generating an amended orphan mesh by replacing the orphan-element-patch-object of the original-input-orphan-mesh by the new mesh patch element.

    摘要: Each of first and second bridges of a data network having respective links to an external node implement a network bridge component that forwards traffic inside the data network and a virtual bridge component that forwards traffic outside of the data network. A virtual bridge is formed including the virtual bridge components of the first and second bridges and an interswitch link (ISL) between the virtual bridge components of the first and second bridges. Data frames are communicated with each of multiple external network nodes outside the data network via a respective one of multiple link aggregation groups all commonly supported by the virtual bridge.
