(ring3). Thus, if TEF224provides its own internal VMM, it may not have direct access privileges to system resources. However, TEF224may use “gates” to access resources such as memory and storage in a manner that maintains the integrity of the ring architecture, and still enables the VMM...
All of the player station systems 360a-360k can couple to a central router or hub 370, which can be coupled to a master table controller (“TC”) having a CPU 380 and memory or storage 381. The TC can be coupled to one or more table displays, as well as an interface 391 for ou...
Integration methods of main memory and file system management for non-volatile main memory and implications of file system structures Byte addressable non-volatile (NV) memory, such as STT-RAM, MRAM, and PCM, is the next generation memory that can be used as both main memory and secondary.....
1.A stack caching method for use in a system comprising a first memory and a second memory, the method comprising:profiling the first memory to acquire access frequencies of corresponding stack blocks of the first memory;identifying a first stack block from a plurality of stack blocks stored in...
1. A system for managing swaps of tangible and intangible items, comprising: a network connection; an electronic database; and a server computer that is connected to the electronic database, and communicates with users through the network connection, wherein the server computer registers a first ...
in a Symmetrix data storage device provided by EMC Corporation of Hopkinton, Mass. The core kernel code may be written for the general target platform, such as the PowerPC architecture. Since the PowerPC implementation specific modules are well defined, the system may be quite portable between ...
Connected between processing core12and memory14is a memory controller20. Memory controller20communicates with processing core12and memory14, and handles the memory I/O requests to memory14from processing core12and from other processors and I/O devices. Connected to memory controller20is a distributed...
over and/or under rollers, or around delivery and take up spools for the sheet118of material. Thus, while the path120may be generally (but not necessarily) uniform through the working volume114, the conveyer104may move in any direction suitable for moving completed items from the working volum...
While this approach may produce search results having documents that are conceptually related at the level of individual words, it does not typically capture topical relationships that inhere between co-occurring phrases themselves. Another problem with existing individual term based indexing systems lies ...
For example, if a user has completely traversed a menu hierarchy and is viewing the lowest level menu items, a certain command (e.g., “control-c”) can be used to signify that the user wants to immediately ret
