摘要:
Within a data processing system, a user-entered data declaration within a program source file is inspected to determine whether a first qualifier is provided with or omitted from the user-entered data declaration. If the first qualifier is provided, an unreserved data storage location disposed within a data-processing integrated-circuit (IC) device is identified and allocated for storage of data associated with the user-entered data declaration.

A system for multiple task management between processors includes a first processing device for executing tasks. A respective storage element is provided for storing one or more commands from each of the tasks. A command dispatcher is provided for selectively transferring a command from one of the storage elements to a command queue provided within a second processing device.

A method and apparatus for managing the display of multiple windows in a computer user interface in an efficient manner. Two separate window areas are allocated in a display area. A first area is an overlapped window area where windows may overlap each other. A second area is a tiled window area where windows may not overlap each other. User interface controls are provided to allow the user to designate a displayed window as tiled or overlapped and the designated window is moved from area to area, accordingly. Windows in either area may be resized and repositioned, although with some restrictions in the tiled area. The computer system automatically adjusts window and area sizes within predefined limits.

An apparatus and method for in-system programming of programmable devices includes a device configuration program with adaptive programming source code instructions that characterize device configuration instructions and data. The adaptive source code instructions may include conditional branches, subroutines, variables, configurable arrays, integer operators, and Boolean operators. These features allow for more compact and efficient device configuration instructions and data. An interpreter converts the device configuration program into formatted device configuration instructions and data. The formatted device configuration instructions and data are preferably compatible with IEEE 1149.1 JTAG-BST specifications. The formatted device configuration instructions and data are used to program a programmable device in the manner specified by the adaptive programming source code instructions.

摘要:
A method of loading data into register files that correspond to respective execution units within a data-parallel processor. After receiving a first set of parameters that specify a subset of data within a first memory, the first set of parameters are compared to a plurality of sets of conditions that correspond to respective patterns of data. The first set of parameters is then converted to a second set of parameters in accordance with one of the sets of conditions satisfied by the first set of parameters. A sequence of memory addresses are generated based on the second set of parameters. Data is retrieved from locations within the first memory specified by the sequence of memory addresses and loaded into register files that correspond to respective execution units within a processor.
摘要:
A reconfigurable computer system based on programmable logic is provided. A system design language may be used to write applications. The applications may be automatically partitioned into software components and programmable logic resource components. A virtual computer operating system may be provided to schedule and allocate system resources. The virtual computer operating system may include a virtual logic manager that may increase the capabilities of programmable logic resources in the system.

A method for upgrading software is described. According to the invention, in response to operation of the software on a first platform, a connection is established between the first platform and a remote platform. Where first version data associated with the software are different from second version data from the remote platform, a portion of the software is overwritten with first updated code from the remote platform.
