Abstract: A warming product that contains an exothermic composition configured to generate heat in the presence of oxygen and moisture is provided. The exothermic composition is applied to a thermal composite containing two or more fibrous layers, which are structured to provide enhanced distribution of the exothermic composition through the thermal composite structure. For example, a first fibrous layer may rapidly acquire the exothermic composition and distribute it primarily in the −z direction (direction of thickness) to a second fibrous layer, which may then distribute the exothermic composition primarily in the −x and −y directions. Typically, at least a portion of the exothermic composition is able to flow through the second fibrous layer and contact additional layers. For example, the exothermic composition may contain a moisture-holding layer configured to supply moisture to the exothermic composition. This places the exothermic composition into close contact with the moisture-holding layer, which may provide enhanced heating efficiency. Further, the exothermic composition may also adhere the moisture-holding layer to the composite without the need for additional bonding mechanisms.

Abstract: A configurable buffer arbiter is provided that combines a time-slot based algorithm, a fairness-based algorithm, and a priority-based algorithm to meet the bandwidth and latency requirements of multiple channels needing access to a buffer memory. The channels have different static and dynamic characteristics. The static channel characteristics include aspects such as a required latency for access to the buffer memory, a required bandwidth to the buffer memory, a preferred latency or bandwidth to the buffer memory, the amount of data the channel can burst in each access to the buffer memory, and the ability for the channel to continuously burst its data to the buffer memory with or without any pauses. The dynamic characteristics include aspects such as whether a channel's FIFO is nearing full or empty, or whether one of the static characteristics has suddenly become more critical. Configuration of the arbiter algorithms exists to optimize the arbiter for both the static and dynamic channel characteristics.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for removal of instructions for context re-evaluation. The mechanism receives an external request to perform the instruction remove. In response to this external request, the mechanism next determines when the state of the system is stable for allowing the instruction remove. Then the mechanism creates a first event to remove a current data instruction in a DMA, if present, and merge it back onto the list of pending contexts from where it originated. The mechanism waits for feedback that the first event has completed. Then the mechanism creates a second event to remove a pending data instruction that was chosen to be next in the DMA, if present, and merge it back onto the list of pending contexts from where it originated. Finally the mechanism waits for feedback that the second event has completed. The merging of contexts back onto the pending list from where they originated aborts any activity related to preparing further data instructions and holds off further decisions about which context to DMA next until the instruction remove procedure is completed and a correct priority decision can be made again. The result of the ability to remove instructions is that the system can respond to changing conditions on a protocol bus and be capable of preparing the best DMA instructions possible for optimizing the performance on the protocol bus.

Abstract: A flow-based FIFO sub-system for a disk formatter in a data processing system that performs data width conversion. The sub-system has a first FIFO unit having a first width interfacing to a first bursting channel, and a second FIFO unit having a second width interfacing to a second bursting channel, the second width not being a multiple of the first width and the first width not being a multiple of the second width. Data width conversion is performed between the first FIFO unit and the second FIFO unit to convert data moving from the first FIFO unit to the second FIFO unit from the first width to the second width, and to convert data moving from the second FIFO unit to the first FIFO unit from the second width to the first width. The sub-system also includes an Error Correcting Code interface between the first FIFO unit and the second FIFO unit for performing in-line correction.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus in a data controller in a storage drive for retrieving, evaluating, and processing a context that describes a direct memory access (DMA) request. The data controller includes a buffer for storing data transferred in response to execution of a direct memory access (DMA) transfer request, a host address pointer pointing to a current location in the buffer, and a retrieval channel device included in the data controller. The retrieval channel device is configured to: (1) fetch a context that describes a direct memory access (DMA) transfer requested by the host computer to which the storage drive is coupled, where the DMA requests a transfer of a particular amount of data, (2) determine whether a current capacity of the buffer for transferring data exceeds a threshold, (3) generate an instruction to transfer a second amount of data to complete at least a portion of the requested DMA transfer in response to the retrieval channel device determining that the current capacity does exceed the threshold, (4) assert the instruction generated by the retrieval channel device, and (5) adjust the host address pointer by the second amount of data, all without feedback from any data movement block.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are elastic laminate materials. The elastic laminate materials are laminates of extensible nonwoven fibrous webs and thermoplastic elastic materials. The laminate may be a two-layer composite material having a single nonwoven fibrous web bonded to one side of the thermoplastic elastic material, or it may be a three-layer composite having a nonwoven fibrous web bonded to each side of the thermoplastic elastic material. The extensible nonwoven fibrous webs may be staple fiber webs. The thermoplastic elastic material may be single-layer or multi-layer elastic films, or elastic fibrous layers. Where single- or multi-layer elastic films are used, the films may be breathable films. The elastic material, or some of the staple fibers, or both, may be selected such that the staple fiber webs are thermally compatible with the thermoplastic elastic material to facilitate laminate bonding. Processes for forming the elastic laminate material are also disclosed.

Abstract: Skip logic is provided in a storage controller that informs a direct memory access (DMA) context list manager of consecutive ones and zeroes in a skip mask table. The DMA context list manager then manages data counters and location pointers based on the number of consecutive ones and the number of consecutive zeroes. For writes and non-cached reads, the number of zeroes is used to adjust a logical sector address without actually moving data. For cached reads, the number of zeroes is used to adjust the logical sector address and a host address pointer. The DMA context list manager also determines an instruction length based on a number of consecutive ones and issues one or more instructions for each group of consecutive ones and subtracts the instruction lengths from the overall transfer length until the transfer is complete.
