Title: System and method for dynamic mirror-bank addressing
Inventor: JETER ROBERT E JR
IPC: G06F12/16
Filed: 2004-02-26
Granted: 2011-09-13
Abstract: A dynamic addressing technique mirrors data across multiple banks of a memory resource. Information stored in the memory banks is organized into separately addressable blocks, and memory addresses include a mirror flag. To write information mirrored across two memory banks, a processor issues a single write transaction with the mirror flag asserted. A memory controller detects that the mirror flag is asserted and, in response, waits for both memory banks to become available. At that point, the memory controller causes the write to be performed at both banks. To read data that has been mirrored across two memory banks, the processor issues a read with the mirror flag asserted. The memory controller checks the availability of both banks having the desired information. If either bank is available, the read request is accepted and the desired data is retrieved from the available bank and returned to the processor.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des nouveaux analogues d'acides gras modifiés dans lesquels un positron ou un marqueur émetteur de rayons gamma est placé dans une position sur le squelette d'acide gras et où un substituant organique est substitué aux positions de la séquence 2,3; 3,4; 4,5; 5,6 et autres du squelette d'acide gras. Ces nouveaux analogues d'acide gras sont conçus pour pénétrer dans les tissus d'intérêt par le même mécanisme porteur d'acide gras à chaîne longue que pour les acides gras naturels. Toutefois, les substituants fonctionnels aux positions de la séquence 2,3; 3,4; 4,5; 5,6 et autres bloquent la voie catabolique, ce qui a pour effet d'emprisonner ces analogues sous une forme pratiquement inchangée dans les tissus d'intérêt.

Abstract: [Problem to be solved]   The problem to be solved by the present invention is to reduce the load applied to the wearer by correcting a parameter in correspondence with detectivity of biosignals.  [Means to solve problem]   The calibration controlling part 162 of the movement assisting apparatus 10 enables the power amplifying part 158 to apply a driving force of the driving source 140 as a load (input torque) from the load generating part 164 to the wearer 12 when the wearer 12 wears the movement assisting wearing device. Then, the wearer 12 applied with the driving force of the driving source 140 generates power from the skeletal muscles by performing a predetermined calibration operation. Accordingly, the physical phenomenon detecting part 142 detects joint angle along with the calibration operation, and the biosignal detecting part 144 detects myoelectric signals. In the parameter correction part 156, a parameter K is corrected based on the difference between the load (input torque) and the driving force (muscular strength) being calculated by the difference deriving part 154 with respect to the phase identified by the phase identifying part 152.
