20090029034 | Protective anode coatings - A coating system, for use in reducing air burn oxidation of a carbon anode of an aluminium electrolytic smelter, includes a pre-coat and a top coat which together enable protection of the anode when applied thereover. The pre-coat contains finely divided carbonaceous material dispersed in a solution of a suitable binder. The top coat contains finely divided particulate material, comprising at least one of alumina and cryolite, dispersed in a solution of a suitable binder. | 01-29-2009 |
20090301328 | MANUFACTURE OF PRINTING CYLINDERS - The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a printing cylinder, which comprises the application of cold-gas dynamic spraying to provide a printing surface on a substrate cylinder More specifically, the method of the present invention involves cold-gas dynamic spraying of metal particles or metal alloy particles of a predetermined compositions onto a steel, aluminium or polymeric composite substrate cylinder in order to provide a printing layer having suitable surface characteristics capable of being engraved by conventional means such as electronic or laser, high hardness and excellent wear characteristics. | 12-10-2009 |
20110223053 | MANUFACTURE OF PIPES - The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a pipe, which method comprises cold-gas dynamic spraying of particles onto a suitable support member thereby producing a pipe, and separating the pipe from the support member. | 09-15-2011 |

20130254485 | COORDINATED PREFETCHING IN HIERARCHICALLY CACHED PROCESSORS - Processors and methods for coordinating prefetch units at multiple cache levels. A single, unified training mechanism is utilized for training on streams generated by a processor core. Prefetch requests are sent from the core to lower level caches, and a packet is sent with each prefetch request. The packet identifies the stream ID of the prefetch request and includes relevant training information for the particular stream ID. The lower level caches generate prefetch requests based on the received training information. | 09-26-2013 |
20140149632 | PREFETCHING ACROSS PAGE BOUNDARIES IN HIERARCHICALLY CACHED PROCESSORS - Processors and methods for preventing lower level prefetch units from stalling at page boundaries. An upper level prefetch unit closest to the processor core issues a preemptive request for a translation of the next page in a given prefetch stream. The upper level prefetch unit sends the translation to the lower level prefetch units prior to the lower level prefetch units reaching the end of the current page for the given prefetch stream. When the lower level prefetch units reach the boundary of the current page, instead of stopping, these prefetch units can continue to prefetch by jumping to the next physical page number provided in the translation. | 05-29-2014 |
20150026404 | Least Recently Used Mechanism for Cache Line Eviction from a Cache Memory - A mechanism for evicting a cache line from a cache memory includes first selecting for eviction a least recently used cache line of a group of invalid cache lines. If all cache lines are valid, selecting for eviction a least recently used cache line of a group of cache lines in which no cache line of the group of cache lines is also stored within a higher level cache memory such as the L1 cache, for example. Lastly, if all cache lines are valid and there are no non-inclusive cache lines, selecting for eviction the least recently used cache line stored in the cache memory. | 01-22-2015 |
