Some processors, like the Intel 80386 and its successors, have hardware support for context switches, by making use of a special data segment designated the task state segment (TSS). A task switch can be explicitly triggered with a CALL or JMP instruction targeted at a TSS descriptor in the...
the operating system's spin lock acquisition and release routines raise the IRQL on single-processor systems; they do not actually manipulate a lock object. On multiprocessor machines, however, spin lock acquisition routines raise the IRQL on the current processor while other processors spin on the...
Global context is best described by scalable execution views that do not change in format, size, meaning, or clarity as processors are added to an execution. One way to produce a scalable view is to categorize processors by behavior and display category statistics. Categorical views are ...
one or more computer-readable media to store processor-executable instructions that, when executed, program the one or more processors to: identify a plurality of n-grams associated with at least a portion of a digital work, an n-gram of the plurality of n-grams comprising a sequence of at...
11. A computer readable storage medium comprising one or more sequences of instructions, which when executed by one or more processors cause: receiving a search request comprising a query term and a context document; identifying a target document of a plurality of documents based on a relationship...
The core selection in the affinity context menu is indeed untenable, and already hidden on systems with 32 or more logical processors. There are plans to improve this, and I think you'll see that come to fruition in the near future! Software Engineer. Bitsum LLC. Jeremy Collake Administ...
interviews with IPS participants, unit managers, processors, IPS employment specialists and managers, IPS documentation and statistics will form the basis for the review. This standardised procedure of monitoring adherence entails scoring (1 to 5) of 25 items related to staffing, organisation, and ...
Also prefetchnta seems useless, and movntdq worse-than-useless on my modern machine. Admittedly only tried them once but also saw ref's saying the same thing, that modern processors don't get much from them. (Of course u can't trust ref's) ...
1. One or more computer-readable media maintaining instructions executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising: presenting a portion of text of a digital work on a display of an electronic device; receiving a selection of a term of one or more words from the text of th...
Computing-based device 1100 also comprises one or more processors 1101 which may be microprocessors, controllers or any other suitable type of processors for processing computing executable instructions to control the operation of the device in order to provide an activity management system.
