Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficient and consistent validation/conflict detection in a Software Transactional Memory (STM) system is herein described. A version check barrier is inserted after a load to compare versions of loaded values before and after the load. In addition, a global timestamp (GTS) is utilized to track a latest committed transaction. Each transaction is associated with a local timestamp (LTS) initialized to the GTS value at the start of a transaction. As a transaction commits it updates the GTS to a new value and sets versions of modified locations to the new value. Pending transactions compare versions determined in read barriers to their LTS. If the version is greater than their LTS indicating another transaction has committed after the pending transaction started and initialized the LTS, then the pending transaction validates its read set to maintain efficient and consistent transactional execution.

The arm (7) of the drive mechanism consists of many links, which are connected by chain articulations (15) and are provided by bottom and upper stops. The bottom stops limit the relative downward deflection of the links to keep the rectilinear form of the arm (7), and the upper stops limit the upward deflection of the links, letting the arm (7) to assume the form of an open polygon. The piston actuator (9) is firmly fixed to the end link of arm (7), and is located below and at a distance from the pins of the chain articulations (15) in which its cylinder adheres to all of them when the arm (7) is rectilinear. When the venting cover is being opened and is partly open in position II at approximately 45° from level, the first link of the arm (7) leans against the base element of the fixed frame, while in the fully open position (III) determined by the upper stops of the links when the piston rod is completely extended, the end link assumes a position which is above (b) and outside (c) the axis of the hinge (5).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for assigning automatic repeat request (ARQ)/hybrid-automatic repeat request (H-ARQ) processes in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) to support enhanced uplink (EU) data transmissions. After parameters associated with the ARQ/H-ARQ processes are configured, the WTRU assigns an ARQ/H-ARQ process for selected data. After transmitting the data, the WTRU determines whether feedback information for the data has been received. The WTRU releases the ARQ/H-ARQ process if an acknowledgement (ACK) message has been received, and retransmits the data if a non-acknowledgement (NACK) message or no feedback information has been received in a predetermined time period while incrementing a transmission counter in the WTRU. When an ARQ/H-ARQ transmission limit has been reached, the WTRU may discard the data or reinitiate the transmission. An ARQ/H-ARQ process assigned for transmission of lower priority data may be preempted for transmission of higher priority data when there is no available ARQ/H-ARQ process.
