Register files for I/O packet compression

Roberts, David A.; Cheng, Kevin Y.; Hu, Nathan

Title: Register files for I/O packet compression

Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for reducing inter-node bandwidth are contemplated. A computer system includes requesting nodes sending transactions to target nodes. A requesting node sends a packet that includes a register identifier (ID) in place of a data value in the packet. The register ID indicates a register in the target node storing the data value. The register ID uses fewer bits in the packet than the data value. The data value may be a memory address referencing a memory location in the target node. The received packet may also include an opcode indicating an operation to perform on the targeted data value.

Register file soft error recovery

Patent Fleischer, Bruce M.; Fox, Thomas W.; Wait, Charles D.; ...

Register file soft error recovery including a system that includes a first register file and a second register file that mirrors the first register file. The system also includes an arithmetic pipeline for receiving data read from the first register file, and error detection circuitry to detect whether the data read from the first register file includes corrupted data. The system further includes error recovery circuitry to insert an error recovery instruction into the arithmetic pipeline in response to detecting the corrupted data. The inserted error recovery instruction replaces the corrupted data in the first register file with a copymore »« less

Parallel compression of data chunks of a shared data object using a log-structured file system

Patent Bent, John M.; Faibish, Sorin; Grider, Gary

Techniques are provided for parallel compression of data chunks being written to a shared object. A client executing on a compute node or a burst buffer node in a parallel computing system stores a data chunk generated by the parallel computing system to a shared data object on a storage node by compressing the data chunk; and providing the data compressed data chunk to the storage node that stores the shared object. The client and storage node may employ Log-Structured File techniques. The compressed data chunk can be de-compressed by the client when the data chunk is read. A storagemore »« less

Method for data compression by associating complex numbers with files of data values

Patent Feo, John Thomas [Dublin, CA]; Hanks, David Carlton [San Ramon, CA]; Kraay, Thomas Arthur [Leeburg, VA]

A method for compressing data for storage or transmission. Given a complex polynomial and a value assigned to each root, a root generated data file (RGDF) is created, one entry at a time. Each entry is mapped to a point in a complex plane. An iterative root finding technique is used to map the coordinates of the point to the coordinates of one of the roots of the polynomial. The value associated with that root is assigned to the entry. An equational data compression (EDC) method reverses this procedure. Given a target data file, the EDC method uses a searchmore »« less

Registering coherent change detection products associated with large image sets and long capture intervals

Patent Perkins, David Nikolaus; Gonzales, Antonio I

A set of co-registered coherent change detection (CCD) products is produced from a set of temporally separated synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of a target scene. A plurality of transformations are determined, which transformations are respectively for transforming a plurality of the SAR images to a predetermined image coordinate system. The transformations are used to create, from a set of CCD products produced from the set of SAR images, a corresponding set of co-registered CCD products.

Self-registering spread-spectrum barcode method

Patent Cummings, Eric B.; Even Jr., William R.

A novel spread spectrum barcode methodology is disclosed that allows a barcode to be read in its entirety even when a significant fraction or majority of the barcode is obscured. The barcode methodology makes use of registration or clocking information that is distributed along with the encoded user data across the barcode image. This registration information allows for the barcode image to be corrected for imaging distortion such as zoom, rotation, tilt, curvature, and perspective.
