Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing coherence between two processors of a two processor node of a multi-processor computer system. Generally the present invention relates to a software algorithm that simplifies and significantly speeds the management of cache coherence in a message passing parallel computer, and to hardware apparatus that assists this cache coherence algorithm. The software algorithm uses the opening and closing of put/get windows to coordinate the activated required to achieve cache coherence. The hardware apparatus may be an extension to the hardware address decode, that creates, in the physical memory address space of the node, an area of virtual memory that (a) does not actually exist, and (b) is therefore able to respond instantly to read and write requests from the processing elements.

Abstract: A method of starting a session in a synchronization system. The maximum size of a message that is to be sent from a synchronization server to a mobile station for the request, and coding instructions, by which at least one of the identifiers can be coded into a bit sequence requiring substantially fewer bits than its ASCII presentation, are determined in the synchronization server. Decoding instructions, by means of which the original identifier is obtained from the bit sequence, are determined in the mobile station. When the purpose is to transmit a request indicating the need for starting a session to at least one mobile station, a message is formed, is shorter or as long as the maximum size and includes the pre-selected identifiers, at least one of which is presented as a bit sequence defined according to the coding instructions. The mobile station forms a session initialization message on the basis of the information included in the message received from the server, at least part of information being defined from the received bit sequence according to the decoding instructions.

Abstract: A method to synchronize and upload an offloaded network stack connection between a host network stack and peripheral device is presented. A state object for each layer in the stack is sent to the device that includes state variables that are classified as a constant, a cached variable handled by the host, or a delegated variable handled by the device. State that must be updated by the network stack and the peripheral device is cleanly divided. For example, statistics are tracked by the host, the device, or the host and the device. A statistic tracked by both the host and peripheral device is divided into non-overlapping portions and combined to produce the statistic. Once an upload is initiated, the device achieves a consistent state and hands delegated states to the stack. Each layer in the stack takes control of its delegated state and resources at the device are freed. <IMAGE>
