The present invention provides for selectively overwriting sets of a cache as a function of a replacement management table and a least recently used function. A class identifier is created as a function of an address miss. A replacement management table is employable to read the class identifier to create a tag replacement control indicia. The cache, comprising a plurality of sets, is employable to disable the replacement of at least one of the plurality of sets as a function of the tag replacement control indicia.

Disclosed is a procedure or design approach for functional modules that may be used in connection with a multiprocessor integrated circuit chip. The approach includes keeping the dimensions of each module substantially the same and having the bus, power, clock and I/O connection configured the same on all modules. Further requirements for ease of use are to generalize the capability of each module as much as possible and to decentralize functions such as testing to be primarily performed within each module. The use of such considerations or rules substantially eases the design of a given type of custom chips, and based upon an initial chip design greatly facilitates the design of further custom chips, similar in application, but subsequent to the successful completion of the initial chip. The standardization modules and replication of the modules on a given chip also reduces physical verification time in initial chip design as well as redesign time of the initial chip when requirements for chip capability are redefined or otherwise changed. Any subsequent or further custom chips can include more or less of specific modules based upon already established parameters.

A computer architecture and programming model for high speed processing over broadband networks are provided. The architecture employs a consistent modular structure, a common computing module and uniform software cells. The common computing module includes a control processor, a plurality of processing units, a plurality of local memories from which the processing units process programs, a direct memory access controller and a shared main memory. A synchronized system and method for the coordinated reading and writing of data to and from the shared main memory by the processing units also are provided. A hardware sandbox structure is provided for security against the corruption of data among the programs being processed by the processing units. The uniform software cells contain both data and applications and are structured for processing by any of the processors of the network. Each software cell is uniquely identified on the network. A system and method for creating a dedicated pipeline for processing streaming data also are provided.

The present invention provides for a system comprising a DMA queue configured to receive a DMA command comprising a tag, wherein the tag belongs to one of a plurality of tag groups. A counter couples to the DMA queue and is configured to increment a tag group count of the tag group to which the tag belongs upon receipt of the DMA command by the DMA queue and to decrement the tag group count upon execution of the DMA command. A tag group count status register couples to the counter and is configured to store the tag group count for each of the plurality of tag groups. And the tag group count status register is further configured to receive a request for a tag group status and to respond to the request for the tag group status.

An information processing apparatus configured to create a schedule to be presented to a user includes an estimation unit and a creation unit. The estimation unit is configured to estimate whether or not the user acts in accordance with a first schedule including a task to do for accomplishing a preset aim. The creation unit is configured to create, when estimated that the user does not act in accordance with the first schedule, a new second schedule for accomplishing the aim from a state of the user who acts without following the first schedule.

Provided is a wavelength selective switch, which includes: an input/output unit; a dispersive portion; a condensing optical system; and the deflection portion. The input/output unit has input/output ports. The dispersive portion disperses signal light incident from the input/output ports. The condensing optical system condenses a plurality of signal light beams dispersed by the dispersive portion. The deflection portion has a plurality of deflection elements. The deflection elements deflect, along a second direction, the signal light beams condensed by the condensing optical system. In the condensing optical system, the aberration amount of the meridional component in a sagittal coma aberration remains substantially constant irrespective of an angle formed between the optical axis of the condensing optical system and a signal light beam incident on the condensing optical system from the input/output portion, at an incident position of the incident signal light beam at a certain height in the second direction.
