| 20090265534 | Fairness, Performance, and Livelock Assessment Using a Loop Manager With Comparative Parallel Looping - A method, apparatus, and computer program are provided for assessing fairness, performance, and livelock in a logic development process utilizing comparative parallel looping. Multiple loop macros are generated, the multiple loop macros respectively correspond to multiple processor threads, and the multiple loop macros are parallel comparative loop macros. The multiple processor threads for the multiple loop macros are executed in which a common resource is accessed. A forward performance of each of the multiple processor threads is verified. The forward performance of the multiple processor threads is compared with each other. It is determined whether any of the multiple processor threads fails to meet a minimum loop count or a minimum loop time. It is determined whether any of the multiple processor threads exceeds a maximum loop count or a maximum loop time. It is recognized whether fairness is maintained during the execution of the multiple processor threads. | 10-22-2009 |

| 20100322358 | Parallel Execution of Trellis-Based Methods - A receiver system and method for recovering information from a symbol data sequence Y. The symbol data sequence Y corresponds to a symbol data sequence X that is transmitted onto the channel by a transmitter. The symbol data sequence X is generated by the transmitter based on associated information bits. At the receiver, a set of two or more processors operate in parallel on two or more overlapping subsequences of the symbol data sequence Y, where each of the two or more overlapping subsequences of the symbol data sequence Y corresponds to a respective portion of a trellis. The trellis describes redundancy in the symbol data sequence Y. The action of operating in parallel generates soft estimates for the associated information bits. The soft estimates are useable to form a receive message corresponding to the associated information bits. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20120089065 | Limb protection device - A joint-supporting device comprises tensile members extending from above the joint to below it, supplementing the tensile characteristics of the joint's tendons, ligaments, and other structure. The tension members extend between a proximal cuff above the joint to a distal cuff below it, and pass over a pad at the apex of the joint, redirecting the tension members. In order that the cuffs are supported in position so that the tension members can effectively support the joint, they are spaced away from the joint by compression members bearing on proximal and distal bolsters, in turn located positively by the boney structure of the joint. | 04-12-2012 |
