20090096481SCHEDULER DESIGN TO OPTIMIZE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE USING CONFIGURABLE ACCELERATION ENGINES - A reusable hardware control structure is provided for a hardware acceleration engine that can be configured for implementation within an electronic integrated circuit design according to any one of a plurality of configuration alternatives. The reusable hardware control structure comprises a digital logic circuit design developed to receive configuration data from the hardware acceleration engine describing a selected configuration alternative. The selected configuration alternative is any one of the plurality of configuration alternatives. The digital logic circuit design is developed to process the configuration data to provide an evaluation of an input-to-output latency and an input blocking pattern of the hardware acceleration engine configured according to the selected configuration alternative. The evaluation is capable of being leveraged by control logic within the electronic integrated circuit design to increase utilization of the hardware acceleration engine.04-16-2009
20090287860Programmable Direct Memory Access Controller - A Direct Memory Access controller controls access to memory in a data processing system via a system bus. The controller is made up of a data load unit configured for performing load operations with data. A data computation unit is configured for performing data conversion and is pipeline connected in sequence to the data load unit. A data store unit is also pipeline connected in sequence to the data computation unit and is configured for performing burst store operations onto a system bus for storage in system memory.11-19-2009
20100005213Access Table Lookup for Bus Bridge - Cross-bar segment routing and access table address remapping functions are combined within a cross-bar of a system-on-a-chip. In this manner, address remapping may occur prior to segment routing. One or more access table caching registers may be included for each master port. The caching registers may allow for a rapid lookup of one or more access table entries associated with each master, as well as allow for the simultaneous lookup by multiple masters without adding ports to the access table. A segment identifier may be stored in the caching registers to indicate how to route a matching request to the appropriate slave segment.01-07-2010

20080311417ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A CRYSTAL FROM A MELT OF A RAW MATERIAL AND SINGLE CRYSTAL - An arrangement for manufacturing a crystal of the melt of a raw material comprises: a furnace having a heating device with one or more heating elements, which are configured to generate a gradient temperature field directed along a first direction, a plurality of crucibles for receiving the melt, which are arranged within the gradient temperature field side by side, and a device for homogenizing the temperature field within a plane perpendicular to the first direction in the at least two crucibles. The arrangement further has a filling material inserted within a space between the crucibles wherein the filling shows an anisotropic heat conductivity. Additionally or alternatively, the arrangement may comprise a device for generating magnetic migration fields, both the filling material having the anisotropic heat conductivity and the device for generating magnetic migration fields being suited to compensate or prevent the formation of asymmetric phase interfaces upon freezing of the raw melt.12-18-2008
