Abstract: In some embodiments, the invention involves a system and method relating to software caching with bounded-error delayed updates. Embodiments of the present invention describe a delayed-update software-controlled cache, which may be used to reduce memory access latencies and improve throughput for domain specific applications that are tolerant of errors caused by delayed updates of cached values. In at least one embodiment of the present invention, software caching may be implemented by using a compiler to automatically generate caching code in application programs that must access and/or update memory. Cache is accessed for a period of time, even if global data has been updated, to delay costly memory accesses. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A waveguide 60 formed of material 62 allows propagation of image bearing light along a light pathway 64 by total internal reflection of the image bearing light. The layer of material 62 is a light transparent material arranged to allow an observer, not illustrated, to look through the layer of material 62 whilst also arranged to carry image bearing light. 
     A grating element 66 carried within the layer of material 62 is arranged such that impinging image bearing light following the light pathway 64 is either diffracted out of the layer of material 62 as a pupil of image bearing light 68a to 68n or is reflected by either surface 70 or surface 72. 
     The efficiency of the grating element 66 is varied along the length of the layer of material 62 to achieve the desired pupils of image bearing light 68a to 68n along the length of the layer of material 62. This results in a more even brightness of pupils of image bearing light 68a to 68n, as perceived by the observer looking through the layer of material 62.

IPC: F02D13/02
Filed: 2008-02-19
Abstract: This control apparatus estimates a full combustion correspondence period CP, which is the period from an ignition timing SA to a combustion completion time CAe, and controls a VVT advancement amount (burnt gas quantity, overlap period, intake valve open timing) such that the estimated full combustion correspondence period CP coincides with a constant target full combustion correspondence period CPtgt. The full combustion correspondence period CP substantially maintains a one-to-one relation with the VVT advancement amount at which HC, CO 2 , etc. start to increase, even when the ignition timing SA changes. Thus, even when the ignition timing changes, the burnt gas quantity (overlap period) can be properly controlled. As a result, without increasing the discharge quantities of HC and CO, the discharge quantity of NO x  can be reduced. In addition, pumping loss can be reduced, whereby fuel consumption can be improved.
