Abstract: A convolution apparatus including a data memory, a matrix unknit-knit device, and a convolution operation device, a convolution method, a matrix unknit-knit device, and a matrix unknit-knit method are provided. The matrix unknit-knit device unknits a first matrix stored in the data memory into s*s second matrices (or knits the s*s second matrices into the first matrix), where s is greater than 1. Pixels in each of s*s subblocks in the first matrix serve one-to-one as pixels of the s*s second matrices. A convolution operation device unknits a convolution kernel of a convolution operation with a stride of s into s*s sub-kernels, uses any one of the sub-kernels to perform a convolution operation with a stride of 1 on one corresponding second matrix, and accumulates the operation results the second matrices as the operation result of performing the convolution operation with a stride of s on the first matrix.

Abstract: A computing device and a method for reusing data are provided. The computing device includes a general register and an arithmetic unit coupled to the general register. The arithmetic unit includes a data reuse unit, which is coupled to multiple dot product data units. The data reuse unit is configured to read from the general register and temporarily store a data set used for multiple convolution operations, and determine multiple data subsets from the data set to be respectively inputted into the multiple dot product data units. Two data subsets inputted into two adjacent dot product data unit include a portion of the same data. Each of the multiple dot product data units is configured to perform a dot product operation on the inputted data subset, so as to generate a dot product operation result.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for configuring cooperative warps in a vector computing system. The apparatus includes general-purpose registers (GPRs); an arithmetic logical unit (ALU); and a warp instruction scheduler. The warp instruction scheduler is arranged operably to: allow each of a plurality of warps to access to data of a whole or a designated portion of the GPRs through the ALU in accordance with a configuration by a software when being executed; and complete calculations of each warp through the ALU.

Abstract: A wheeled crane and self-demounting and self-mounting methods for supporting legs thereof is disclosed. The wheeled crane includes a vehicle frame and auxiliary supports, and the auxiliary supports can enable the vehicle frame to keep balance. Since the wheeled crane has auxiliary supports, when the supporting legs are demounted or mounted, the auxiliary supports function as supporting legs, so that the supporting legs can be mounted and demounted by the operation part of the wheeled crane with no need of using an auxiliary crane, and thus the self-mounting and self-demounting of the supporting legs of the wheeled crane are realized.

Abstract: A speaker assembly is made of a base unit, a light source, a ring and a cover. The speaker is built inside the base unit and its vibration surface is a reflection surface. Two more reflection surfaces are arranged around the base. Two light sources are respectively positioned on two reflection surfaces, by which the light can be emitted from light sources to be reflected uniformly. A ring, having a reflection surface, is disposed around the speaker so as to make it a unique, light-emitting object. The cover is mounted on the base to protect the speaker from damage.
