Abstract

A method and apparatus for sharing integrated testing services with a plurality of autonomous remote clients is disclosed. In the disclosed method, in response to an access request message, a process controller transmits an access enabling message to the remote client. The access enabling message includes instructions performable by a remote client to generate test equipment commands. A process controller interprets and transforms these commands into automated test instrument suite commands, which are provided to laboratory modules to perform the indicated tests. Test data results are then obtained and transmitted to the remote client.

Method and apparatus for granting processors access to a resource

Patent Blumrich, Matthias A [Ridgefield, CT]; Salapura, Valentina [Chappaqua, NY]

An apparatus and method for granting one or more requesting entities access to a resource in a predetermined time interval. The apparatus includes a first circuit receiving one or more request signals, and implementing logic for assigning a priority to the one or more request signals, and, generating a set of first_request signals based on the priorities assigned. One or more priority select circuits for receiving the set of first_request signals and generating corresponding one or more fixed grant signals representing one or more highest priority request signals when asserted during the predetermined time interval. A second circuit device receivesmore »« less

Apparatus and method for servicing an elongated suspended pump motor in an electric power plant with limited access

Patent Chavez, Rossemary V [Monroeville, PA]; Ekeroth, Douglas E [Delmont, PA]; Johnson, F Thomas [Baldwin Boro, PA]; ...

Elongated coolant pumps suspended under steam generators within containment in a power plant with limited access space, are removed and replaced by an elongated maintenance cart with an elongated opening along one side in which the motor is received. Rollers support the cart for conveying the elongated motor in an upright position out from under the steam generator and onto an elevator. The elevator is lowered to transfer support of the cart and motor through trunnions to saddles straddling the elevator for rotation of the cart to a generally horizontal position. The elevator then raises the horizontally disposed cart carryingmore »« less

Method and apparatus for managing access to a memory

Patent DeBenedictis, Erik

A method and apparatus for managing access to a memory of a computing system. A controller transforms a plurality of operations that represent a computing job into an operational memory layout that reduces a size of a selected portion of the memory that needs to be accessed to perform the computing job. The controller stores the operational memory layout in a plurality of memory cells within the selected portion of the memory. The controller controls a sequence by which a processor in the computing system accesses the memory to perform the computing job using the operational memory layout. The operationalmore »« less

Apparatus, method and system to control accessibility of platform resources based on an integrity level

Patent Jenkins, Chris; Pierson, Lyndon G.

Techniques and mechanism to selectively provide resource access to a functional domain of a platform. In an embodiment, the platform includes both a report domain to monitor the functional domain and a policy domain to identify, based on such monitoring, a transition of the functional domain from a first integrity level to a second integrity level. In response to a change in integrity level, the policy domain may configure the enforcement domain to enforce against the functional domain one or more resource accessibility rules corresponding to the second integrity level. In another embodiment, the policy domain automatically initiates operations inmore »« less

Method and apparatus for reducing memory access latency

Patent Roberts, David A.

Logic such as a memory controller writes primary data from an incoming write request as well as corresponding replicated primary data (which is a copy of the primary data) to one or more different memory banks of random access memory in response to determining a memory access contention condition for the address (including a range of addresses) corresponding to the incoming write request. When the memory bank containing the primary data is busy servicing a write request, such as to another row of memory in the bank, a read request for the primary data is serviced by reading the replicatedmore »« less
