Illustrative embodiments of systems for characterizing resonance behavior of magnetostrictive resonators are disclosed. In one illustrative embodiment, an apparatus may comprise a first channel including one or more driving coils and one or more magnetostrictive resonators, the first channel having a first impedance; a second channel having a second impedance, the second impedance differing from the first impedance by an impedance attributable to the one or more magnetostrictive resonators; a signal source configured to apply an input signal to both the first and second channels; and a signal receiver configured to generate a combined output signal in response to output signals measured from both the first and second channels.

An example embodiment of the present invention provides processes relating to a cache coherence protocol for distributed shared memory. In one process, a DSM-management chip receives a request to modify a block of memory stored on a node that includes the chip and one or more CPUs, which request is marked for fast invalidation and comes from one of the CPUs. The DSM-management chip sends probes, also marked for fast invalidation, to DSM-management chips on other nodes where the block of memory is cached and responds to the original probe, allowing the requested modification to proceed without waiting for responses from the probes. Then the DSM-management chip delays for a pre-determined time period before incrementing the value of a serial counter which operates in connection with another serial counter to prevent data from leaving the node's CPUs over the network until responses to the probes have been received.

Included in the present disclosure are a system, method and program of instructions operable to protect vital information by combining information about a user and what they are allowed to see with information about essential files that need to be protected on an information handling system. Using intelligent security rules, essential information may be encrypted without encrypting the entire operating system or application files. According to aspects of the present disclosure, shared data, user data, temporary files, paging files, the password hash that is stored in the registry, and data stored on removable media may be protected.

Compositions and methods for binding to Salmonella bacteria are provided. The compositions comprise peptide sequences which bind to Salmonella bacteria with high specificity. The compositions are useful in identification, detection, and isolation of Salmonella bacteria. The compositions are also useful for the delivery of a wide variety of compounds to Salmonella bacteria or their vicinity. Such compounds include nucleotides, proteins (including, for example, toxins), liposomes, and small molecule pharmaceuticals. The compositions are also useful in identifying bacterial cell surface markers to which the compositions bind.

In one embodiment, a processor comprises a plurality of hardware resources, each hardware resource having a clock cycle. The processor also comprises a plurality of work stores, each work store assigned into one of a plurality of virtual functions if a mode of the processor is set to a virtual function mode, and each work store assigned into one physical function if the mode of the processor is set to a physical function mode. The processor further comprises dispatch logic configured to dispatch work from any work store corresponding to any virtual function or physical function to any released hardware resources.

In one embodiment, a processor includes plural processing cores, and plural instruction stores, each instruction store storing at least one instruction, each instruction having a corresponding group number, each instruction store having a unique identifier. The processor also includes a group execution matrix having a plurality of group execution masks and a store execution matrix comprising a plurality of store execution masks. The processor further includes a core selection unit that, for each instruction within each instruction store, selects a store execution mask from the store execution matrix. The core selection unit for each instruction within each instruction store selects at least one group execution mask from the group execution matrix. The core selection unit performs logic operations to create a core request mask. The processor includes an arbitration unit that determines instruction priority among each instruction, assigns an instruction for each available core, and signals the instruction store.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems directed to the caching of blocks of lines of memory in a cache-coherent, distributed shared memory system. Block caches used in conjunction with line caches can be used to store more data with less tag memory space compared to the use of line caches alone and can therefore reduce memory requirements. In one particular embodiment, the present invention manages this caching using a DSM-management chip, after the allocation of the blocks by software, such as a hypervisor. An example embodiment provides processing relating to block caches in cache-coherent distributed shared memory.
摘要:
A method and system for dynamic distributed data caching is presented. The method includes providing a cache community (402) comprising at least one peer (413). Each peer has an associated first content portion (511) indicating content to be cached by the respective peer. A client (404) may be allowed to join the cache community. A peer list (426) associated with the cache community is updated to include the client. The peer list indicates the peers in the cache community. A respective second content portion (511) is associated with each peer based on the addition of the client.

A cache module (26) at a client computer (12) controls a cache portion (28) on a storage device (24). The cache module communicates with other cache modules at other clients to form a cache community (15). The cache modules store World Wide Web or other content in the cache portions for retrieval in response to requests (32) for content from browsers (30) in the cache community. When the requested content is not available in the cache community, the requested content may be retrieved from an origin server (19) using the Internet.
摘要:
A magnetostrictive ligand sensor device (MLSD), system and method are provided having at least one magnetostrictive particle (MSP) to which is bound at least one binding element. The MSP may be dispersed in a sample containing a target ligand such that the target ligand binds thereto. A driver is also provided to emit a varying magnetic field such that the MSP produces a resonance response detectable by a measurement device configured to receive and detect changes in the resonance response that are due to alterations of the binding element. The MLSD and assays find use in identifying and quantitating ligands as well as chemicals and environmental conditions in a sample or patient.
