| 20110231524 | METADATA MANAGEMENT METHOD FOR NAS GLOBAL NAMESPACE DESIGN - A global namespace (GNS) is constructed across heterogeneous network-attached storage (NAS) devices by organizing metadata servers into a cluster layer having cluster nodes and a consistent hashing overlay layer having overlay nodes. The global namespace is distributed based on workload at the cluster and overlay nodes, and a portion of the GNS namespace may be migrated from one layer to the other. Cluster nodes may be added to the cluster layer, overlay nodes may be added to the consistent hashing overlay layer. Further, a cluster node may become an overlay node or an overlay node may become a cluster node. To access the global namespace, a request for namespace metadata managed by a cluster node is serviced by the cluster node, but if the requested namespace metadata have been migrated to the consistent hashing overlay layer, the cluster node will forward the request to the responsible overlay node for servicing. | 09-22-2011 |

| 20090193228 | MULTIPROCESSOR SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SYNCHRONIZATION FOR MULTIPROCESSOR SYSTEM - Each of processors has a barrier write register and a barrier read register. Each barrier write register is wired to each barrier read register by a dedicated wiring block. For example, a 1-bit barrier write register of a processor is connected, via the wiring block, to a first bit of each 8-bit barrier read register contained in the processors, and a 1-bit barrier write register of another processor is connected, via a wiring block, to a second bit of each 8-bit barrier read register contained in the processors. For example, a processor writes information to its own barrier write register, thereby notifying synchronization stand-by to the other processors and reads its own barrier read register, thereby recognizing whether the other processors are in synchronization stand-by or not. Therefore, a special dedicated instruction is not required along barrier synchronization processing, and the processing can be made at a high speed. | 07-30-2009 |
