Abstract: A computer system comprising: a plurality of memories each containing one or more locations; and a first threadlet for causing a first program to run in the computer system when at least one first memory location of the plurality of memory locations is local to the threadlet. Also provided is a method allowing such a threadlet to move itself to memories that include some specified second memory location.
Abstract: A circuit arrangement to recover clock and data from a received signal comprises an electronic commutator for sampling the received signal in such a way that several sampling values of a bit cell transmitted with the received signal are distributed time-wise one after the other onto several output connections of the commutator device and emitted there in the form of corresponding intermediate signals. A first circuit combines a first group of intermediate signals of the commutator device into a first uniting signal, which serves as the basis for data recovery or comprises the recovered data signal, while a second circuit combines a second group of intermediate signals of the commutator device into a second uniting signal, which serves as the basis for clock recovery. The second uniting signal is fed to a phase regulator arrangement, which, dependent on this, sets the sampling phases assigned to the individual output connections of the commutator device.
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method and compound for sensing the presence of anionic phospholipids, especially phosphatidylserine, on the surface of vesicles and cells.
Abstract: Systems and methods are described for processing an emission signal, such as a fluorescent signal, to compensate for noise in an excitation beam, such as a laser beam. As one example, a scanning system is described that includes an excitation signal generator that provides an excitation signal having one or more representative excitation values representative of an excitation beam; an excitation reference provider that provides at least one excitation reference value; a normalization factor generator that compares the excitation reference value to at least one representative excitation value, thereby generating a normalization factor; and a comparison processor that adjusts at least one emission value corresponding to the at least one representative excitation value based, at least in part, on the normalization factor.
