    摘要: A computer array (10) has a plurality of computers (12) for accomplishing a larger task that is divided into smaller tasks, each of the smaller tasks being assigned to one or more of the computers (12). Each of the computers (12) may be configured for specific functions and individual input/output circuits (26) associated with exterior computers (12) are specifically adapted for particular input/output functions. An example of 24 computers (12) arranged in the computer array (10) has a centralized computational core (34) with the computers (12) nearer the edge of the die (14) being configured for input and/or output. Mechanisms are described for communications between computers (12) and the outside environment.

    摘要: A microprocessor system in which an array of processors communicates more efficiently through the use of a worker mode function. Processors that are not currently executing code remain in an inactive but alert state until a task is sent to them by an adjacent processor. Processors can also be programmed to temporarily suspend a task to check for incoming tasks or messages.

    摘要: A computer array (10) has a plurality of computers (12). The computers (12) communicate with each other asynchronously, and the computers (12) themselves operate in a generally asynchronous manner internally. When one computer (12) attempts to communicate with another it goes to sleep until the other computer (12) is ready to complete the transaction, thereby saving power and reducing heat production. The sleeping computer (12) can be awaiting data or instructions (12). In the case of instructions, the sleeping computer (12) can be waiting to store the instructions or to immediately execute the instructions. In the later case, the instructions are placed in an instruction register (30a) when they are received and executed therefrom, without first placing the instructions first into memory. The instructions can include a micro-loop (100) which is capable of performing a series of operations repeatedly. In one application, the sleeping computer (12) is awakened by an input such that it commences an action that would otherwise have required an interrupt of an otherwise active computer.

    摘要: A resource broker agent may be configured to monitor computing resources available on a computing device. The resource broker agent may be further configured to request additional computing resources in response to detecting a request to perform a computing task that cannot be adequately performed with the computing resources currently available on the computing device. The additional computing resources may be requested from one or more remote resource providers via a network. The additional computing resources may comprise remote execution of portions of the computing task. The resource broker agent may be further configured to perform the requested computing task by use of a virtualized computing environment of the computing device.

    摘要: An imaging pixel array and associated method and system are disclosed in which the array contains first pixels each having a first photo-conversion device, and second pixels each having a first photo-conversion device and a second photo-conversion device. The first photo-conversion devices are configured to acquire an image during a first integration period. The second photo-conversion devices are configured to acquire a plurality of images during the first integration period. A circuit uses the plurality of image signals and determines from them relative motion between the array and an image during a portion of the first integration period and provides a signal representing the motion which is used for image stabilization.

    摘要: A linear PLL includes a VCO with first and second tuning elements. The first tuning element is adjusted in proportion to the phase error between an input signal and a VCO signal and the second tuning element is adjusted by an integral function of the phase error. By configuring the VCO with separate tuning elements that are separately adjusted in proportion to the phase error and by an integral function of the phase error, the 3 dB bandwidth frequency of the linear PLL depends primarily on the phase detector gain and the VCO gain that is contributed from the proportional adjustment. A linear PLL with separate proportional and integral tuning elements can be designed to exhibit a relatively constant gain over a relatively large frequency range.

    摘要: Described is a circuit for receiving a differential input signal at two substantially symmetrically built up current paths and for providing an output signal therefrom. At least one current path comprises means for adjusting the timing information of the input signal to the timing information of the output signal. The adjustment can be accomplished by modifying a voltage level in the respective current path until the timing information of the output signals at least substantially represents the timing information of the input signal, e.g. by modifying an impedance or a current in the respective current path. The adjusting of the timing information is executed by applying a defined input signal with a known timing information, comparing the timing information of the resulting output signal with the timing information of the input signal, and modifying at least one voltage level in at least one of the current paths until the timing information of the output and input signals at least substantially match.
