| 20080301371 | Memory Cache Control Arrangement and a Method of Performing a Coherency Operation Therefor - A memory cache control arrangement for performing a coherency operation on a memory cache comprises a receive processor for receiving an address group indication for an address group comprising a plurality of addresses associated with a main memory. The address group indication may indicate a task identity and an address range corresponding to a memory block of the main memory. A control unit processes each line of a group of cache lines sequentially. Specifically it is determined if each cache line is associated with an address of the address group by evaluating a match criterion. If the match criterion is met, a coherency operation is performed on the cache line. If a conflict exists between the coherency operation and another memory operation the coherency means inhibits the coherency operation. The invention allows a reduced duration of a cache coherency operation. The duration is further independent of the size of the main memory address space covered by the coherency operation. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20090063779 | CACHE MEMORY AND A METHOD FOR SERVICING ACCESS REQUESTS - A cache memory that includes: (i) an arbitrator, connected to multiple access generator, the arbitrator is adapted to receive different types of access requests from the multiple access generators and to select a single access request per arbitration cycle; (ii) a sequence of pipeline stages, the sequence comprises an input pipeline stage that is connected to the arbiter; and (iii) multiple cache resources, connected to the sequence of pipeline stages; wherein each cache resource can be read only by a small portion of the sequence of pipeline stages and can be written to only by a small portion of the sequence of pipeline stages. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20100325366 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FETCHING AN INFORMATION UNIT - A device and a method for fetching an information unit, the method includes: receiving a request to execute a write through cacheable operation of the information unit; emptying a fetch unit from data, wherein the fetch unit is connected to a cache module and to a high level memory unit; determining, when the fetch unit is empty, whether the cache module stores an older version of the information unit; and selectively writing the information unit to the cache module in response to the cache module in response to the determination. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20110022800 | SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR SELECTING A CACHE WAY - A method for selecting a cache way, the method includes: selecting an initially selected cache way out of multiple cache ways of a cache module for receiving a data unit; the method being characterized by including: searching, if the initially selected cache way is locked, for an unlocked cache way, out of at least one group of cache ways that are located at predefined offsets from the first cache way. | 01-27-2011 |

| 20090006594 | Method and system for remote manageability of networked computers - A method and system may allow a management server in a first network to communicate via a mediator server with a management module of a computing system in a second network. The mediator server may establish a communication connection to the management module and the data transferred from the management server to the management module may be associated with the communication connection. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090070467 | Enabling access to remote entities in access controlled networks - In network access control networks, it may be difficult to provide certain remote accesses such as remote boot or remote storage access. An available network connection established through chipset firmware (e.g. active management technology (AMT)) may be utilized to establish a connection and to enable the remote access. Then as soon the completion of the activity is detected, such as remote booting, then the connection may be immediately terminated to prevent access by improper agents. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20090083844 | Synchronizing between host and management co-processor for network access control - In network access controlled networks, it is desirable to prevent access to the network by any non-authenticated entities. Access control may be established through a trusted agent that, in some embodiments, may be implemented with a management co-processor. In some cases, active management technology may establish a connection while a host is inactive. Then, after the host becomes active, the host can attempt to use the management co-processor connection without obtaining the necessary authentications. This may be prevented, in some embodiments, by scanning for an active host and, if such an active host is found, blocking the host from using a layer 2 authentication channel unless the host is properly authenticated and has a proper Internet Protocol address. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090165099 | PROVISIONING ACTIVE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY (AMT) IN COMPUTER SYSTEMS - Active management technology (AMT) may be provisioned in a client device automatically, which may provide a secure connection between the provisioning server and the client device. The client device comprising the active management technology may support zero-touch provisioning and one-touch provisioning. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20100275243 | SECURING WAKEUP NETWORK EVENTS - In an embodiment, a method is provided. The method of this embodiment provides receiving a packet having a wake-up pattern, and waking up if the wake-up pattern corresponds to one of a number of dynamically modifiable passwords on a pattern wake list, each of the dynamically modifiable passwords being based, at least in part, on a seed value | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110134928 | TRANSMITTING A PACKET - Provided are a method, system, and program for selecting one of a plurality of adapters to use to transmit a packet. A packet is generated by a protocol driver having connection information in a packet header. A determination is made as to whether there is one value in a table for the connection information. The packet and the determined value are forwarded to a network driver in response to determining that the table has one value for the connection information. The network driver uses the forwarded value to determine one of a plurality of adapters to use to transmit the packet over a network. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110246633 | PROXY DETECTION BY SERVICE PROCESSOR - Embodiments provide methods, apparatus, and systems that enable an embedded processor to detect and configure one or more network access settings. The network access settings may enable the embedded processor to communicate over a network, via out-of-band messages, with a management server or service. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed. | 10-06-2011 |
