Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for recognizing and processing reduction operations to optimize generated binary code for execution in a multiprocessor computer system. Reduction operations facilitate data parallelism whereby each processing thread contributes a value and the values are reduced using a function to obtain and return a reduced value to each of the threads. Embodiments of an idiom-based interprocedural compiler provide a unified framework for processing both implicit and explicit reductions. The compiler integrates explicit reductions and implicit reductions by providing a uniform intermediate format. The compiler resolves dependencies among processing threads within program code by checking for privatization of dependent threads or parallelizing reduction idioms within the threads, and generates parallelized object code for execution in a multiprocessor computer.

Abstract: A method and system for presenting electronic casino games to a player is provided. A player will establish a subscription between a workstation and a gaming server that pertains to a single game category to receive game data pertaining only to the selected game category. The gaming server will then send data pertaining to the selected game category to the workstation at predefined or regular intervals, so as to update the game data. The workstation provides filtering options for the player so that the player can filter out instances of game play not desired. Because the workstation receives the data pertaining to the selected game category, the workstation can perform the filtering, and the player may filter through the game data of this category for as long as the subscription persists.

Abstract: Embedding electrical machines in gas turbine engines has particular advantages by avoiding the need to provide mechanical connections. However, electrical machines such as switched reluctance electrical machines require relatively large electrical capacitors to accommodate and filter voltage variations in the phases of the electrical machine. Generally the electrical machine will have a motoring period 5 or generating period 6 with a spacer period 9 between. By injecting electrical current as electrical power in the spacer period 9 there is limited effect upon nett torque within the electrical machine or electrical power generation. However, such stored electrical power in an inductive winding element of the electrical machine augments power pulses provided by a power source incorporating an electrical capacitor. In such circumstances a smaller sized electrical capacitor can be used.
