Apparatus and systems for implementing simulated environments are disclosed. Remote implementation of function calls is also disclosed. A simulated environment apparatus may include a plurality of simulation servers coupled to each other over data transfer links. The simulation servers may be configured to perform computations related to simulating an environment. A plurality of view servers may be coupled to the simulation servers over data transfer links. Each view server is configured to facilitate interaction between a plurality of client devices and the simulation servers. Each user device may control an avatar within the simulated environment. A simulated environment system may include a data center configured to communicate over a network with one or more remotely distributed client devices.

Atomic operation may be implemented in a processor system comprising a main memory and a power processor element (PPE) including a power processor unit (PPU) coupled to an external cache. The PPE may atomically load data from a lock-line in the main memory into a first location X in the external cache. A size of the data and the lock line may be larger than a data size for the standard atomic operations that may be performed with the PPE. The data may be reserved in a second location Y in the external cache.
摘要:
Atomic operations may be implemented on a processor system having a main memory and two or more processors including a power processor element (PPE) and a synergistic processor element (SPE) that operate on different sized register lines. A main memory address containing a primitive is divided into a parity byte and two or more portions, wherein the parity byte includes at least one bit. A value of the parity byte determines which of the two or more portions is a valid portion and which of them is an invalid portion. The primitive is of a memory size that is larger than a maximum size for atomic operation with the PPE and less than or equal to a maximum size for atomic operation with the SPE. Read with reservation and conditional write instructions are used by both the PPE and SPE to access or update a value of the atomic.

Forward error correction may be implemented in a network having first, second and third nodes. The second node receives streaming media message packets and one or more check packets from an upstream first node. The second node transmits the message packets and check packets to a downstream third node. The second node uses the check packets to decode missing message packets and transmits the decoded missing packets to the third node before the missing message packets are to be presented by the third node. The third node may receive message packets and a first set of check packets from the second node and a second set of check packets from the first node. The third node may use check packets from both sets to decode missing message packets.
摘要:
Network bandwidth detection and distribution and prioritizing network traffic among two or more distinct channels of communication within a single application in a node configured to communicate with one or more other nodes over a network is disclosed. For a particular time quantum, a bandwidth quantum may be distributed amongst two or more communication channels according to priorities associated with those channels.

A client device configured to interact with an interactive environment, a computer implemented method for obtaining auxiliary content in such a device, a mediation server, a computer implemented method for managing distribution of auxiliary content with such a server, an auxiliary content distribution method and an auxiliary content distribution system are disclosed
摘要:
Each peer node in a plurality has a different corresponding key value. Each of the nodes can broadcast one or more items to a plurality of recipient nodes. The recipient nodes are arranged into a list according to a key value order. The list is divided into two or more parts of approximately equal size, and each part of the list and the one or more items is forwarded to a recipient peer node corresponding to a first key value in that part of the list. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. This abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Forward error correction may be implemented in a network having first, second, third and fourth nodes. The second node receives streaming media message packets and one or more check packets from an upstream first node. The second node transmits the message packets and check packets to a downstream third node. The second node transmits a second set of one or more check packets to a fourth node that is downstream of the third node.
