Title: Système et procédé de réduction du temps d'attente de stockage dans des systèmes multiprocesseurs symétriques
Inventor: DEMENT JONATHAN JAMES
IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 2007-11-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé de réduction du temps d'attente de stockage dans des systèmes multiprocesseurs symétriques. Des agents de bus sont prévus et surveillent des requêtes de droit de propriété réfléchies (Dclaims) afin de déterminer si la Dclaim réfléchie est sa propre Dclaim. Si c'est le cas, l'agent de bus détermine qu'il a remporté la requête de droit de propriété et peut immédiatement effectuer une modification de données en utilisant sa mémoire cache locale associée. Si l'agent de bus détermine que la Dclaim réfléchie ne correspond pas à sa propre Dclaim, il détermine qu'il a perdu la requête de droit de propriété et invalide la ligne de mémoire cache correspondante dans sa propre mémoire cache locale. L'agent de bus perdant peut ensuite envoyer une demande « Read With Intent to Modify » afin d'obtenir les données d'une autre mémoire cache et de les placer dans sa propre mémoire cache en vue de leur modification. Ces opérations sont effectuées sans avoir besoin d'une requête « Kill » et sans avoir à effectuer de nouvelles tentatives quant à une requête de propriété qui aurait échoué.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the assessment of quantity and quality parameters of biological particles in a liquid analyte material. The method comprises applying a volume of a liquid sample to an exposing domain from which exposing domain electromagnetic signals from the sample in the domain can pass to the exterior, and exposing, onto an array of active detection elements such as CCD-elements, a spatial representation of electromagnetic signals having passed from the domain, the representation being detectable as an intensity by individual active detection elements, under conditions permitting processing of the intensities detected by the array of detection elements during the exposure in such a manner that representation of electromagnetic signals from the biological particles are identified as distinct from representations of electromagnetic signals from background signals. The size of the volume of the liquid sample is sufficiently large to permit the assessment of the quantity and quality parameters to fullfil a predetermined requirement to the statistical quality of the assessment based on substantially one exposure.
