A second group of threads is formed comprising the current candidate thread selected from each of the first groups of threads. A current winning thread is selected from the second group of threads using a high granularity selection scheme. An instruction is fetched from a memory based on a fetch address for a next instruction of the current winning thread. The instruction is then dispatched to one of the execution units for execution, whereby execution stalls of the execution units are reduced by fetching instructions based on the low granularity and high granularity selection schemes. | 11-10-2011 |
20110289257 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING CACHE MEMORY - A request for reading data from a memory location of a main memory is received, the memory location being identified by a physical memory address. In response to the request, a cache memory is accessed based on the physical memory address to determine whether the cache memory contains the data being requested. The data associated with the request is returned from the cache memory without accessing the memory location if there is a cache hit. The data associated is returned from the main memory if there is a cache miss. In response to the cache miss, it is determined whether there have been a number of accesses within a predetermined period of time. A cache entry is allocated from the cache memory to cache the data if there have been a predetermined number of accesses within the predetermined period of time. | 11-24-2011 |
20120233414 | SHORT POINTERS - A digital processor stores pointers of different sizes in memory. The processor, specifically, executes instructions to store a long or short pointer. Long pointers reference any address in the memory's logical address space, while short pointers merely reference any address in a subset of that space. However, short pointers are smaller in size as stored in memory than long pointers. Long pointers thus support relatively large address range capabilities, while short pointers use less memory. The processor also executes instructions to load a long or short pointer into the register file, and does so in a way that does not require the processor to distinguish between the different pointers when executing other instructions. Specifically, the processor converts long and short pointers into a common format for loading into the register file, and converts pointers in the common format back into long or short pointers for storing in the memory. | 09-13-2012 |

20110084362 | Active Diode Having No Gate and No Shallow Trench Isolation - An active diode with fast turn-on time, low capacitance, and low turn-on resistance may be manufactured without a gate and without a shallow trench isolation region between doped regions of the diode. A short conduction path in the active diode allows a fast turn-on time, and a lack of gate oxide reduces susceptibility of the active diode to extreme voltages. The active diode may be implemented in integrated circuits to prevent and reduce damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. Manufacturing the active diode is accomplished by depositing a salicide block between doped regions of the diode before salicidation. After the salicide layers are formed on the doped regions, the salicide block is removed. | 04-14-2011 |
