    摘要: Methods, apparatus and software products are described for design-time data-assignment techniques for hierarchical memories, e.g., multi-banked memories in an essentially digital system as well as methods, apparatus and software products for run-time memory management techniques of such a system. Memory assignment techniques are described for assigning data to a hierarchical memory particularly for multi-tasked applications where data of dynamically created/deleted tasks is allocated at run-time. The energy consumption of hierarchical memories such as multi-banked memories depends largely on how data is assigned to the memory banks. Methods, apparatus and software products are described for design-time data-assignment techniques for hierarchical memories, e.g., multi-banked memories in an essentially digital system which improve a cost function such as energy consumption.

    摘要: A road marker having a remotely controllable display includes a shell, a light panel, a power source, a receiver and a controller. The shell has at least one lens. The light panel emits light through the lens. The power source provides electricity for operation of the light panel. The receiver receives control signals from a remote control system. The controller controls the light emitted by the light panel in accordance with the control signals from the remote control system.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a synthetic fireplace log and a process for making a synthetic fireplace log which is adapted to utilize wood derivative materials, such as wood chips, sawdust or virtually any wood-based product, such as paper and cardboard. The wood derivative materials are molded into a desired shape and held together with a non-petroleum based binder to form a synthetic fireplace log. In order to increase the flammability of the log, the synthetic fireplace log may optionally be sprayed or soaked with either a petroleum or non-petroleum-based flammability agent. Even though a petroleum-based flammability agent is used for soaking and/or spraying the synthetic log, the off-gassing is minimized since the petroleum-based spray is burned off relatively quickly. In other embodiments of the invention, a non-petroleum-based flammability agent is utilized. Suitable non-petroleum-based flammability agents include, for example, vegetable oil, corn oil, soybean oil, granola oil, and lard. These non-petroleum-based flammability agents produce no unpleasant odors. Moreover, the process for making the synthetic log is relatively simple and can be made from relatively inexpensive components, thus reducing the cost for making such synthetic logs.
