Abstract: Row activation operations within a memory component are carried out with respect to subrows instead of complete storage rows to reduce power consumption. Further, instead of activating subrows in response to row commands, subrow activation operations are deferred until receipt of column commands that specify the column operation to be performed and the sub-row to be activated.

Abstract: A method for displaying the status of at least a portion of a CATV system comprises providing a first layer including first geographic indicia, selectively overlaying a second layer including second indicia of the CATV system in a region illustrated in first layer on the first layer, and selectively overlaying a third layer including third indicia of reports of anomalies in the operation of the CATV system equipment in a geographic region illustrated in the first layer. A display thus includes a first layer containing first geographic indicia, a second layer displaying second indicia of the CATV system in the region illustrated in the first layer, and a third layer containing third indicia of reports of anomalies in the operation of the CATV system equipment in the geographic region illustrated in the first layer.
