Inventor: YAZAWA KAZUAKI
IPC: G06F9/30
Filed: 2004-12-22
Abstract: An instruction decoder 14 identifies, for each instruction, an operational block involved in the execution of the instruction and an associated heat release coefficient.  The instruction decoder stores identified information in a heat release coefficient profile 20. An instruction scheduler 16 schedules the instructions in accordance with the dependence of the instructions on data. A heat release frequency adder 32 cumulatively adds the heat release coefficient to the heat release frequency of the operational block held in the operational block heat release frequency register 22 as the execution of the scheduled instructions proceeds. A heat release frequency subtractor 34 subtracts from the heat release frequency of the operational blocks in the operational block heat release frequency register 22 in accordance with heat discharge that occurs with time. A hot spot detector 36 detects an operational block with its heat release frequency, held in the operational block heat release frequency register 22, exceeding a predetermined threshold value as a hot spot. The instruction scheduler 16 delays the execution of the instruction involving for its execution the operational block identified as a hot spot.

Patent CA-2564711-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEKORKIN VLADIMIR I
IPC: H03K3/00
Filed: 2005-05-05
Abstract: The ocillatory dynamics of inferior olive (10) neurons found in the olivo-cerebellar network of the brain are reproduced and applied to various control applications. An 10 neuron model is provided which produces quasi-sinusoidal oscillations with a characteristic amplitude and frequency. Action potentials occur at the peaks of the oscillations and have precise timing properties.  Stimuli applied to the 10 neuron model show no changes in oscillation amplitude and frequency but do produce a shift of the oscillation phase, and hence a time shift of the corresponding action potentials. The resulting phase is defined by the strength of the stimulus and does not depend on when the stimulus is applied, thus providing a self-referential phase reset (SPR) effect. The oscillations of multiple 10 neurons, or their models, coupled together tend to become organized in space and time in the form of oscillatory phase clusters. The phases of the 10 oscillators can be quickly set to a desired phase pattern irrespective of the history of phase evolution. A  circuit for implementing the 10 neuron model and a control system based on the circuit are described.

IPC: B60K6/52
Filed: 2005-05-20
Abstract: An engine ECU learns a base duty ratio command of an actuator for driving a throttle valve as an operation level of engine control on condition that a target idle rotation speed Nei* enters a predetermined rotation speed range during idling of an engine. When the learning is incomplete, the engine ECU  rejects an up request of the target idle rotation speed Nei* sent from an air conditioner ECU and prohibits the target idle rotation speed Nei* from being changed. The prohibition of the change desirably keeps the target idle rotation speed Nei* within the predetermined rotation speed range, thus preventing failed fulfillment of the learning condition and ensuring the sufficient learning opportunities of the operation level of engine control.
