    摘要: An apparatus is provided for determining an average number of instructions entering a stage of a processor pipeline of a computer system during a clock cycle of a processor clock. The number of instructions entering a particular stage of the pipeline are stored in a queue during each of a predetermined number (N) of clock cycles. The total number of instructions processed over the last P clock cycles is computed, where P is less than or equal to N. The total number of instructions processed is divided by the last P processor cycles to yield the instantaneous average number of instructions processed for each processor cycle. This average number of instructions processed is communicated to software.

    摘要: An apparatus for sampling states of a computer system having a hierarchical memory arranged at a plurality of levels, the hierarchical memory storing data at addresses. The apparatus includes a selector for selecting memory transactions based on first state and transaction information. The memory transactions are to be processed by the hierarchical memory. A trigger activates the selector based on second state and transaction information. A sampler stores states of the computer system that are identified with the selected instructions while processing the selected memory transactions in the hierarchical memory.

    摘要: A method is provided for guiding virtual-to-physical mapping policies in a computer system including a processor and a memory. State information is randomly sampled from selected memory references in a stream of memory references issued by the processor to the memory. Cache hit/miss status, translation-look-aside buffer hit/miss status, and effective virtual and physical memory addresses of the sampled memory references are recorded in a profile record. The recorded information is aggregated by virtual memory address, and a new virtual-to-physical mapping is choosen to reduce cache and translation-look-aside buffer miss rates.

    摘要: A method and apparatus keeps track of ingestible objects (such as pills or food items) ingested by humans or animals. The objects are supplied with radio frequency identification (RFID) tags encoding data describing the objects. The humans or animals ingesting the objects are equipped with RFID sensors for detecting, decoding, and archiving the data encoded in the tags. A user may scan the body of the human or animal subject with a sensor to determine if a tagged object has been ingested. The tags may be covered with substances or contain elements that dissolve upon entering a digestive system. This allows detection of ingestion and also allows the RFID tag encoding to change in the course of digestion.
