Abstract: To improve the speed with which a worksheet is positioned in a
press brake, and to further eliminate the need for conventional moving
back gauge systems, the present invention replaces the conventional
back gauge mechanical system with sensors that non-contactedly
determine the positioning of the worksheet, with reference to the
bending tools. The thus sensed worksheet position is compared with
the desired worksheet location preprogrammed into the CNC controller.
Any deviation between the sensed, or the actual worksheet position,
with the desired worksheet position for each bend of the worksheet is
compensated by further moving the worksheet, until there no longer is
any discrepancy between the actual and the preprogrammed desired
locations.

IPC: G06F9/38

Abstract: A way prediction scheme for a partitioned cache is based on the contents of instructions that use indirect addressing to access data items in memory. The contents of indirect-address instructions are directly available for use, without a memory address computation, and a prediction scheme based on this directly available information is particularly well suited for a pipeline architecture. Indirect addressing instructions also provide a higher-level abstraction of memory accesses, and are likely to be more indicative of relationships among data items, as compared to the absolute address of the data items. In a preferred embodiment, the base register that is contained in the indirect address instruction provides an index to a way-prediction table for an n-way associative cache. Data items that are indirectly addressed using the same base register are likely to be related, and thus predicting a particular way in an n-way associative memory based on the base register of an indirect address instruction is likely to result in a cache-hit, thereby reducing the energy consumption associated with accessing all ways in the cache.
