In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may a processor, at least one memory coupled to the processor, the at least one memory comprising an indication of a database and instructions, the instructions, when executed by the processor, to cause the processor to determine a database utilization value for a database, perform a comparison of the database utilization value to at least one utilization threshold, and set an active data access mode to one of a low-utilization data access mode or a high-utilization data access mode based on the comparison. Other embodiments are described.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods implementing a hardware queue management device for reducing inter-core data transfer overhead by offloading request management and data coherency tasks from the CPU cores. The apparatus include multi-core processors, a shared L3 or last-level cache (“LLC”), and a hardware queue management device to receive, store, and process inter-core data transfer requests. The hardware queue management device further comprises a resource management system to control the rate in which the cores may submit requests to reduce core stalls and dropped requests. Additionally, software instructions are introduced to optimize communication between the cores and the queue management device.
Abstract:
An audio data processing method is provided. The method includes: obtaining human voice audio data to be adjusted and reference human voice audio data; performing framing on the human voice audio data to be adjusted and the reference human voice audio data respectively so as to obtain a first audio frame set and a second audio frame set respectively; recognizing a pronunciation unit corresponding to each audio frame respectively; determining, based on a timestamp of each audio frame, a timestamp of each pronunciation unit in the human voice audio data to be adjusted and the reference human voice audio data respectively; and adjusting the timestamp of at least one pronunciation unit to make the timestamp of the pronunciation unit in the human voice audio data to be adjusted to be consistent with the timestamp of the corresponding pronunciation unit in the reference human voice audio data.
Abstract:
Technologies for a distributed hardware queue manager include a compute device having a procesor. The processor includes two or more hardware queue managers as well as two or more processor cores. Each processor core can enqueue or dequeue data from the hardware queue manager. Each hardware queue manager can be configured to contain several queue data structures. In some embodiments, the queues are addressed by the processor cores using virtual queue addresses, which are translated into physical queue addresses for accessing the corresponding hardware queue manager. The virtual queues can be moved from one physical queue in one hardware queue manager to a different physical queue in a different physical queue manager without changing the virtual address of the virtual queue.
Abstract:
Techniques for conditional move operations using a single instruction are described. An example instruction at least includes a prefix, one or more fields to identify a first source operand location, one or more fields to identify a destination operand location, and an opcode to indicate execution circuitry is to conditionally move data from the identified first source operand to the identified destination operand based at least in part on evaluation of a condition code, wherein a payload of the prefix is to provide most significant bits to identify at least one of the first and second source operand locations.
Abstract:
Techniques for accessing 32 general purpose registers, suppressing flags, and/or using a new data destination for an instance of a single instruction are described. An example of a single instruction to at least include a prefix and an opcode to indicate execution circuitry is to do perform a particular operation, wherein the prefix comprises at least two bytes and a second of the two bytes of the prefix is to provide most significant bits for at least register identifier.
Abstract:
Techniques for push or pop operations using a single instruction are described. An example instruction at least include a prefix, one or more fields to identify a first source operand location, one or more fields to identify a second source operand location, and an opcode to indicate execution circuitry is to do push data from the identified first source operand and the identified second source operand onto a stack, wherein a payload of the prefix to provide most significant bits to identify at least one of the first and second source operand locations.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and systems for tuple space search-based flow classification using cuckoo hash tables and unmasked packet headers are described herein. A device can communicate with one or more hardware switches. The device can include memory to store hash table entries of a hash table. The device can include processing circuitry to perform a hash lookup in the hash table. The lookup can be based on an unmasked key include in a packet header corresponding to a received data packet. The processing circuitry can retrieve an index pointing to a sub-table, the sub-table including a set of rules for handling the data packet. Other embodiments are also described.
Abstract:
Techniques for conditional test or comparison using a single instruction are described. An example instruction includes one or more fields to identify a first source operand location, one or more fields to identify a first source operand location, and an opcode to indicate execution circuitry is to conditionally perform a comparison of data from the identified first source operand to the identified second source operand based at least in part on an evaluation of a source condition code and update a flags register, wherein a payload of the prefix is to provide most significant bits to identify at least one of the first and second source operand locations.
