Abstract:
A method and related apparatus for reordering access requests used to access main memory of a data processing system. The method includes receiving one or more access requests for accessing the memory device in a first predetermined order, and reordering the access requests in a second predetermined order to be processed in a request queue by relocating a first access request to follow a second access request accessing a same memory page to increase processing efficiency. In addition, the relocating is prohibited if it increases a processing latency for a third access request to exceed a predetermined limit.
Abstract:
A method for a graphics chip to access data stored in a system memory of a computer device is disclosed. The method includes using a memory controller to set a block capacity value; using the memory controller to divide a plurality of read requests corresponding to a predetermined request sequence into a plurality of request groups, wherein a total amount of data required by read requests grouped in each request group is less than the block capacity value; and using the memory controller to adjust a request sequence corresponding to read requests grouped in each request group for retrieving data stored at different N pages so that a memory device only performs N−1 page switching operations.
Abstract:
A system and method for converting Hangeul characters to Hanja characters in the Korean language. The method and system permit the user to select the conversion mode as either a character mode or a word based mode to provide flexible and accurate conversion operations.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprises a manipulandum, a housing, a sensor and an actuator. The housing has a palpation region spaced apart from the manipulandum. The sensor is coupled to the palpation region of the housing. The sensor is configured to send a signal based on a palpation of the palpation region of the housing. The actuator is coupled to the manipulandum. The actuator is configured to send haptic output to the manipulandum based on the signal.
Abstract:
A directional practice device includes a directional frame and a rail base. The directional frame provides a part being defined to move rectilinearly and an engaging member for locating a sport apparatus. The rail base provides two parallel rail parts and each of the rail parts has a component to define a movement of the directional frame.
Abstract:
A mass storage cradle device that enables different types of storage devices to be conveniently added or removed from a computer or equipment without disassembling and reassembling the computer or equipment which comprising: a cradle portion that can be secured to a drive bay of the computer or equipment, which comprises openings; an enclosure portion that can slide in and out of the cradle portion for containing the storage devices and providing connection of the electrical signals of the storage devices; and a bridge portion that can be positioned inside the enclosure portion and comprises a first interface as well as a second interface, wherein, the first interface is different to the second interface, either in signals type or physical connecting type.

Abstract:
A directional practice device includes an elongated ball-receiving member disposed on a flat surface and having a slot adapted for receiving a plurality of golf balls, and an upright heel-engaging surface disposed at a side of the ball-receiving member and perpendicular to the flat surface. The heel-engaging surface has a lower end defining a side of a head-traveling path extending along a longitudinal direction. The golf balls can be pushed by a putter head to drop from the slot onto the head-traveling path one at a time. After one of the golf balls drops onto the head-traveling path, the putter head can be moved along the head-traveling path to strike the one of the golf balls in the longitudinal direction in such a manner that the heel of the putter head moves on the heel-engaging surface.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for testing a bridge circuit. The method includes inputting a first test clock to a first conversion unit for triggering the first conversion unit to transfer a test data to a second conversion unit according to rising edges of the first test clock, inputting a second test clock to the second conversion unit for triggering the second conversion unit to output an output data according to falling edges of the second test clock, and controlling the first test clock and the second test clock so that the rising edges of the second test clock are not synchronized to the rising edges of the first test clock. A frequency of the first test clock is an even multiple of a frequency of the second test clock.
Abstract:
A crypto pass-through dangle that enables various memory devices with USB interface to be conveniently inserted into or removed from with encryption/decryption function, which comprising: a housing, having an upper housing and a lower cover that can be mutually engaged together for forming a space, wherein the housing further comprises a first opening and a second opening; a printed circuit board, disposed in the space; a first connector, disposed on the printed circuit board and exposed outward the first opening for being inserted into or removed from a USB slot of a host computer; a controller, disposed on the printed circuit board and coupled to the first connector for receiving data from the first connector or transmitting data to the first connector and executing encryption/decryption operation then output; and a second connector, disposed on the printed circuit board and coupled to the controller for connecting the controller to a memory device with a USB interface.
