    摘要: The invention relates to a crossbar switch controller including an input terminal configured to receive a set of service request signals from a set of virtual output queues each comprising a set of packets. The invention also includes a matrix circuit coupled to the input terminal and configured to represent the set of service request signals in the form of a matrix, wherein each service request signal is described by a row position M and a column position N. The invention further includes an output terminal configured to receive a portion of the set of packets during an epoch, an arbiter circuit configured to iteratively scan the matrix during the epoch and issue the set of grant signals to the virtual output queues to determine which service requests are granted, and an arbiter controller configured to initiate the arbiter circuit with an array of non-conflicting matrix elements. Whereby, the arbiter circuit scans the matrix during a first epoch, issues the set of grant signals, allows the set of granted service requests to substantially complete, and if necessary, scans the matrix during subsequent epochs. The invention also relates to a crossbar switch controller including an arbitration pre-processor coupled to the input terminal and the matrix circuit, and configured to represent the set of service request signals in the form of a mapping matrix, and further configured to transform a first mapping position of the service request signal to a second mapping position based, in part, on a mapping algorithm. The invention also includes an arbitration post-processor coupled to the output terminal and the matrix circuit, and further configured to transform the second mapping position of the service request signal back to the first mapping position.

    摘要: The present invention directly measures localized electrochemical processes on a planar electrode using differential interferometry. The ionic charge accumulation at the electrode-electrolyte interface may be directly measured by using differential interferometry as a function of magnitude and frequency (for example, 2-50 kHz) of an external potential applied on an electrode. Methods in accordance with the present invention probe the ion dynamics confined to the electrical double layer. An electric field is applied using a pure AC potential and a superposition of AC and DC-ramp potential to measure ion concentration and detect redox processes.
