摘要:
A computer system comprising a plurality of caching agents with a cache hierarchy, the caching agents sharing memory across a system bus and issuing memory access requests in accordance with a protocol wherein a line of a cache has a present state comprising one of a plurality of line states. The plurality of line states includes a modified (M) state, wherein a line of a first caching agent in M state has data which is more recent than any other copy in the system; an exclusive (E) state, wherein a line in E state in a first caching agent is the only one of the agents in the system which has a copy of the data in a line of the cache, the first caching agent modifying the data in the cache line independent of other said agents coupled to the system bus; a shared (S) state, wherein a line in S state indicates that more than one of the agents has a copy of the data in the line; and an invalid (I) state indicating that the line does not exist in the cache. A read or a write to a line in I state results in a cache miss. The present invention associates states with lines and defines rules governing state transitions. State transitions depend on both processor generated activities and activities by other bus agents, including other processors. Data consistency is guaranteed in systems having multiple levels of cache and shared memory and/or multiple active agents, such that no agent ever reads stale data and actions are serialized as needed.

Colorless distributed combustion (CDC) reactors or green combustion gas turbine combustors having a combustion chamber are presented for improved performance of gas turbine combustion engines. The combustors are configured and designed for providing a superior pattern factor (uniform thermal field in the combustion zone) and a reduction or complete elimination of pollutants emission from the combustor (i.e., zero emission gas turbine combustor) and uniform thermal field in the entire combustion zone to provide significantly improved pattern factor. Colorless distributed combustion is achieved with fuel and air entering the combustion chamber via one or more injection ports as non-premixed, or premixed. Rectangular, cylindrical, stadium and elliptical shaped combustors are presented with injection ports and exit ports located in various locations of the combustors. The mixture preparation between fuel and air with the hot combustion products is carried out either with the gases present in the combustion chamber or via a communication link between the exit gases from the combustor back to the combustion chamber.

A method and apparatus for instruction refetch in a processor is provided. To ensure that a macro instruction is available for refetching after the processor has handled an event or determined a correct restart address after a branch misprediction, an instruction memory includes an instruction cache for caching macro instructions to be fetched, and a victim cache for caching victims from the instruction cache. To ensure the availability of a macro instruction for refetching, the instruction memory (the instruction cache and victim cache together) always stores a macro instruction that may need to be refetched until the macro instruction is committed to architectural state. A marker micro instruction is inserted into the processor pipeline when an instruction cache line is victimized. The marker specifies an entry in the victim cache occupied by the victimized cache line. When the marker instruction is committed to architectural state, the victim cache entry specified by the marker is deallocated in the victim cache to permit storage of other instruction cache victims.

Method and system are presented for the combustion of hydrogen sulfide mixed with other gases for simultaneous recovery of sulfur and energy from hydrogen sulfide at higher efficiency. The amounts and velocity of the hydrogen sulfide into the reactor is selected in such a way that it is not possible to burn the hydrogen sulfide in a normal thin reaction zone during its combustion. The injected hydrogen sulfide gas is mixed in a thermal reactor with fresh air and hot active combustion gases in the reactor on account of internal jet pump effect and self-induced entrainment. The reaction is exothermic so that the chemical energy present in hydrogen sulfide is recovered together with the sulfur. Various reactors are shown capable of controlling the formation of a thermal distribution flow pattern based on the position, and position and direction (and other factors) regarding fluid introduction within a combustion chamber of the reactors.
