Title: Apparatus for forcing a reload from main memory upon cache memory error
Inventor: PORTER MARION GENE
IPC: G06F12/12
Filed: 1988-12-08
Granted: 1997-01-29
Abstract: In a data processing system, there is included a central processing unit (CPU) and a main memory for storing computer words, the CPU including a cache unit. In operation, the CPU requests that a computer word be fetched, the computer word to be fetched being identified by a real address location corresponding to a location where the predetermined computer word is stored in main memory. The CPU request to fetch the computer word is coupled through the cache unit such that the cache unit determines whether the computer word is stored within the cache unit. The cache unit comprises a cache for storing predetermined ones of the computer words. A directory is included for storing partial real address information to a corresponding computer word stored in the cache. A detecting element, operatively connected to the cache and to the directory, determines when a hit occurs without any errors. Control logic, operatively connected to the detecting element, makes available to the CPU the requested computer word from the cache or the main memory when an error is detected as a result of attempting to obtain the computer word from the cache.

Abstract: A rare gas-halogen excimer laser in which the laser gases are exposed virtually only to metal and ceramic, thereby reducing contamination of the gases and optics. In one preferred embodiment magnetic fluid seals (56) are used to isolate the bearings (58) supporting the shaft (46) upon which the tangential fan (44) rotates so that the lubricated bearings do not contaminate the laser gases. The fan (44) uses magnetic coupling (70, 76) so that an isolating enclosure may be placed over the seal to prevent the leakage of gases into the environment should the seal fail. An excimer laser that is therefore both safe enough to be used in medical and industrial applications as well as reliable may be fabricated.

Abstract: In the production of milling products for human consumption, it is proposed that the oxidation, particularly of the fat constituents and vitamins, occurring during milling operations, and also during storage or intermediate storage, be effectively prevented by maintaining a low-oxygen or oxygen-free atmosphere. In this manner, very high value milling products, particularly those containing the highly valuable germ fractions, can be produced and distributed by means of the existing economical production and distribution systems. In particular, e.g. full nutritional value ready-to-use baking mixes can be produced in the mill. These are virtually unchanged even after a considerable storage time of weeks or months, and contain substantially all the constituents of the freshly-milled cereal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved reference electrode is disclosed for use in potentiometric measurements of the amount of ions in an aqueous solution. The reference electrode illustratively comprises a metal member on a substrate, and a layer of a salt reversible to the ion X overlying the metal member. The reference electrode is overlaid by a quantity of an electrolyte, which may be a polymer gel having a salt including the ion X dispersed therein. This structure is overlaid by a membrane permeable to water but not to the ion X that extends beyond the portion of the electrolyte overlying the electrode, but leaves a portion of the electrolyte exposed. This assembly may be shipped dry. In use, when the electrode is disposed in an aqueous solution containing an ionic species to be measured, water permeates the membrane and "wets up" the electrolyte relatively quickly. Any changes in ionic concentration, however, have to be made over a substantially longer path through the electrolyte between the electrode and the exposed portion such that the transit time for such changes is substantially longer than the wet-up time of the electrolyte. This reference electrode may be used in combination with a wide variety of potentiometric indicating electrodes or other structures.

Abstract: Use is made of two A/D conversion systems of low accuracy to obtain digital output signals maintaining higher conversion accuracy than that of only one A/D conversion. By using two D/A conversion systems of low accuracy, furthermore, analog output signals are obtained maintaining higher conversion accuracy than that of only one D/A conversion system. Provision is further made of digital signal clock conversion means for forming second digital data in synchronism with second clocks by the interpolation processing based on the data obtained by highly sampling first digital data series and a difference between the first clock timing and the second clock timing. Using two PCM.CODEC's (54, 55) and one DSP which are cheap and small in size, A/D and D/A conversions are realized maintaining high accuracy. Therefore, the signal processing that was so far carried out using a large-scale analog circuit is now carried out easily using one DSP. In this case, furthermore, the digital signal clock conversion means is realized in the same DSP as the digital signal processing.
