摘要:
A cache memory wherein data words identified by odd address numbers are stored separately from data words identified by even address numbers. A group of diagnostic control registers supply signals for controlling the testing of the cache within the cache memory to determine the operability of the individual elements included in the cache memory.

In a data processing system, a system memory includes first memory modules having a data path of a first bit width and second memory modules having a data path of a second bit width with the first bit width being less than the second bit width. A central subsystem includes a cache memory unit and processing units for initiating requests for data transfers of the second bit width between the system memory and the subsystem processing units. An interface coupling the system memory and the central subsystem for bidirectional data transfers generates, in response to a memory request of a second bit width wherein the requested data is stored in a first memory module, additional memory requests until sufficient data has been retrieved from the system memory to satisfy the central subsystem request. The interface also monitors data transfers between the system processing units and the system memory and transfers the data transfers to the central subsystem in order to update and to retain the integrity of the cache memory in the central subsystem.

A data processing system includes a logical address to a physical address translator in an extended memory management unit. A 128 word memory stores task segment descriptor words which include a base address. A 16 word memory stores corresponding present bits to indicate if the addressed task segment descriptor is present in its memory. This arrangement allows a 128 word memory to be cleared in 16 memory cycles.
摘要:
A cache memory for use in a data processing system wherein data words identified by even address numbers are stored separately from data words associated with odd address numbers to enable the simultaneous transfer of two successively addressed data words to or from the cache memory by the transferring of a data word associated with an odd address number and a data word associated with an even address number.
摘要:
In a data processing system, a central subsystem includes a plurality of special purpose processing units with one of the processing units serving as a control processing unit within a central subsystem. The processing units are coupled to a common subsystem bus for the transfer of data, control information, and address information within the central subsystem. Access to the subsystem bus is allocated by a bus control unit which also interfaces the central subsystem with other processing units such as a system memory or system I/O devices that are included in the data processing system.

A retaining ring (30) for use in combination with a wheel rim (10) having a separable bead flange (14) to secure the separable bead flange on the rim in the absence of a properly inflated tire is characterized by an inboard facing portion (30a) and an outboard facing portion (30b) and a split in the ring defining terminal ends, (32,33) each terminal end having a circumferentially oriented first bore (36,37) in the inboard facing portion (30a) and a second bore (38,39) in the outboard facing portion (30b) at an angular relationship with respect to the first bore. A groove (40,41)(70,71) in the outer surface of the retaining ring (30) interconnects each first bore with each second bore and a steel lockwire (50) is threaded through the bores from one terminal end to the other and seated in the grooves and the ends of the wire (50a,50b) are twisted together to lock the terminal ends (32,33) in a specific spaced orientation (d) such that the ring may expand a limited amount when subjected to centrifugal forces tending to expand the ring and the wire (50) limits the amount of such expansion and maintains the separable bead flange (14) on the wheel rim (10).
摘要:
A holder for implements such as a mortal board, which is to be horizontally positioned, knives, such as broad, spackle, and shear knives, which are to be positioned at an angle, and a roll of drywall tape, vertically positioned. Holder comprises a back plate to secure implements, and a second plate in which the implement holder is temporarily attached to the user, more specifically, the waist area of the user. The mortar board is inserted into the Y-shaped slots which are horizontally aligned to the back plate and are disposed in spaced relationship. The knives are inserted into the compression loaded slots having adjacent relationship and positioned at an angle from the back plate. The tape is inserted into the J-shaped hook which is spaced away from the back plate to allow for the tapes positioning and removal to and from the implement holder. The parts which comprise the implement holder are made from a rigid material, preferably aluminum. When the implements are engaged in their appropriate locations within the implement holder, both hands of the worker are free to conduct other operations.

A priority resolver for providing unambiguous resolution of requests among competing processes vying for access to a common device and which is adapted to a non-distributed environment.
摘要:
A translator is organized to include at least a pair of content addressable memories (CAMs), each for storing a different portion of the total number of bits of each of the words to be translated. The outputs from each CAM are logically combined within a multiple input random access memory (RAM). Both CAMs are interrogated simultaneously and deliver the results of comparing the word portions of an input word and the CAM contents to the RAM in substantially less time then required for a single CAM memory. The results are logically combined with in the RAM which, in response to a match condition, delivers the results of the translation as an output.

A liquid-lubricated roll has an annular roller element rotatably supported by anti-friction bearings on an elongated axle which is longitudinally curved. Liquid lubricant for the bearings is supplied to an annular passageway between the roller element and the axle. During rotation of the roller, the liquid forms into a thin annular layer on its inner surface, which is agitated by projections on the axle to produce a lubricating mist.Barrier rings placed adjacent to the bearings are adapted to permit liquid to flow along the passageway while the roll is rotating, but to block flow of liquid above a selected level when the roll is stationary. This maintains a more uniform longitudinal distribution of liquid within the roll during periods of disuse, so that none of the bearings will be flooded when rotation starts, and a saving in power consumption and bearing life will therefore be realized.
