Abstract:
The invention relates to a compressed data managing system and method for circular buffer. By using the system and method of the invention, when storing the compressed data in a circular buffer and an event occurs, the hardware compression mechanism can stop immediately, without jeopardizing the decompression of the compressed data. Therefore, the system and method of the invention can overcome the following conventional problem: Conventional real-time tracers need several cycles to write the compressed data into the trace memory, which is unbeneficial to error diagnosis. Since when an error occurs, the system might enter the unstable state, this could cause that the tracers fail to write the last compressed data into the trace memory.
Abstract:
A method and system for synchronizing a control chart of an SPC system and equipment performance has a chart model (22) with new chart properties; a method for calculating a control limit based on a statistical deviation, a synchronization frequency for setting a time for reviewing new data gathered by the SPC system, and a process catalog for categorizing all control charts that control the same process step, such that the control charts are organized for assignment of the same performance based control limit calculated by using statistics formed by data for control limit values of the control charts.
Abstract:
A backward compression system and a backward compression method are provided. By using the system and the method, under limited memory space, a relationship between input data and previous data is identified in real time, the input data or previous data is encoded according to the relationship, and the order of data output is such that the encoded data is output first and the complete data is output second. When the output data is stored in circular memory and the memory gets full, the oldest encoded data is overwritten first, and the complete data is not overwritten until all the related encoded data is overwritten. Therefore, more original data can be preserved after decompression. Thus, system signals can be compressed and utilization of limited memory space can be improved.
