| 20090043620 | METHOD FOR COPY PROPAGATIONS FOR A PROCESSOR - A method for copy propagations of a processor including two clusters, each cluster comprising a first function unit and a second function unit, a first local register file and a second local register file being respectively accessible by the first and second function unit only, and a global register file having a ping-pong structure to access the first and second local register files, the method comprising the steps of: (a) listing possible copy propagation paths between two nodes of a data flow graph; (b) calculating a profit of machine cycles for each of the copy propagation paths according to constraints of the processor; and (c) performing a copy propagation through the copy propagation path if the profit thereof is greater than a threshold value. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20080313501 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ASSESSING AND ANALYZING SOFTWARE RELIABILITY - A method for assessing and analyzing software reliability comprises the steps of: collecting failure data from a software system during a testing period; providing a reliability model having a testing compression factor, wherein the reliability model is used to fit the failure data; providing an estimation function derived from the reliability model; obtaining the value of the testing compression factor in accordance with the estimation function; and using the testing compression factor to determine the efficiency of test cases. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20080308258 | MICRO-CHANNEL HEAT SINK - A micro-channel heat sink comprises an upper cover layer and a cooling layer. The cooling layer comprises at least one inlet fluid tank, a plurality of micro-channels, and at least one outlet fluid tank. The inlet fluid tank can store and deliver the working fluids, and the outlet fluid tank collects the heated working fluid flowing through the plurality of micro-channels. The plurality of micro-channels are disposed between the inlet fluid tank and the outlet fluid tank, wherein the cross sectional area of each of the micro-channels increases along the direction towards the outlet fluid tank. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20080305381 | FLAT FUEL CELL COMBINING A RUNNER PLATE AND CONDUCTING LAYER - The present invention relates to a flat fuel cell combining runner plates and a conducting layer. The flat fuel cell includes two runner plates and a conducting layer between the runner plates. There are conducting blocks embedded into the predefined locations on the assembly surfaces of two runner plates. A concave flow passage is shaped by the assembly surfaces of runner plates and the conducting blocks, thus providing a unique structure combining the runner plates and conducting layer. The conducting blocks are electrically connected through the contact of convex flanges on the conducting blocks. Thus, the flat fuel cells are developed thin, making it possible to greatly reduce manufacturing assembly costs without the need of electric wires and to achieve better economic efficiency and applicability. | 12-11-2008 |
