Abstract: A monitoring device configured to be attached to a body of a subject includes a physiological sensor configured to detect and/or measure physiological information from the subject, an activity sensor configured to sense physical activity information from the subject, an actuator configured to adjust stability of the monitoring device relative to the body of the subject, and a processor in communication with the activity sensor and the actuator. The processor is configured to process the physical activity information to detect a change in the physical activity of the subject and to control the at least one actuator to adjust the stability of the monitoring device relative to the body of the subject in response to detecting that a change in the physical activity of the subject has occurred.

Abstract: An apparatus with an integrated circuit (IC) chip can provide protection against attacks on a cryptographic coprocessor. An attacker can compromise a cryptographic coprocessor by, for instance, obtaining a private encryption key or instruction code. To combat these attacks, example implementations store information in encrypted form. The information may correspond to data, instruction code, or intermediate values located in state registers. To securely and quickly “erase” such stored information, the cryptographic coprocessor can change the encryption key. In other example implementations, random numbers are provided with two different levels of “randomness quality” that is appropriate for different types of procedures. A cryptographic coprocessor can include two registers that store randomized bits in accordance with the two different quality levels for rapid access during cryptographic operations.

A suspension system facilitates cart transport, keeping the cart generally level on uneven surfaces and enabling front and rear wheels to pass over barriers.

Abstract: To protect the integrity of data stored in a protected area of memory, data in the protected area of memory is retrieved in data blocks and an authentication code is associated with a memory granule contiguously comprising a first data block and a second data block. Calculation of the authentication code comprises a cryptographic calculation based on a first hash value determined from the first data block and a second hash value determined from the second data block. A hash value cache is provided to store hash values determined from data blocks retrieved from the protected area of the memory. When the first data block and its associated authentication code are retrieved from memory, a lookup for the second hash value in the hash value cache is performed, and a verification authentication code is calculated for the memory granule to which that data block belongs. The integrity of the first data block is contingent on the verification authentication code matching the retrieved authentication code.

Abstract: Compositions, methods, and applications for ablative-chemical infused hydrogels are described. The hydrogels are biodegradable and can be formed in situ. The hydrogels are effective for delivering tissue ablative chemicals to target sites. The hydrogel delivered tissue ablative chemicals can be particularly effective for performing intrauterine ablation, even when fibroids are present, or for scarring fallopian tubes for birth control via minimally invasive procedures. The hydrogels can also be particularly effective at avoiding contact of tissue ablative chemicals with off-target tissues. The hydrogels can be installed using various delivery vehicles, including injections and catheters. The hydrogels can be designed to be retained in the target site for a period of hours to days, so that targeted tissue ablation can proceed in an ambulatory patient. Methods for transcervical installation of in situ formed hydrogels into the uterus or one or more fallopian tubes are described.

Abstract: A data responder may determine a selection between granting a request for a priority byte to be prioritized for transmission ahead of other bytes via a bus and ignoring the request. Granting the request may include transferring a block of bytes of data across multiple clock cycles with the priority byte transferred in a first clock cycle before other clock cycles of the multiple clock cycles. Ignoring the request may include transferring the block across multiple clock cycles with the priority byte transferred in a clock cycle after the first clock cycle. The data responder may receive the request from a data requestor. The data responder may assert a signal on a wire, connected to the data requestor, to indicate a grant of the request and a transfer of the priority byte in the first clock cycle.

Abstract: An article of footwear includes an upper and a sole coupled to the upper. The sole includes an upper sole and a plurality of fluid filled bladder modules coupled to a bottom surface of the upper sole. The plurality of fluid-filled bladder modules include a first bladder module disposed in a first region of the sole and a second bladder module disposed in the first region of the sole, where the second bladder module is spatially separated in a transverse direction from the first bladder module and the first and second bladder modules do not extend into a second region of the sole. The first and second bladder modules are each fluidly isolated from remaining bladder modules. The first and second bladder modules are each asymmetrical. The first bladder module is reflectively symmetrical with respect to the second bladder module.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for a cache coherency state request vector is described. A method includes selecting, by a first agent, one or more bits in a cache coherency state request vector, where a selected bit in the cache coherency state request vector indicates an acceptable cache coherency state for a cache block indicated in a request message, transmitting, by the first agent to a second agent, the request message for the cache block, the request message including the cache coherency state request vector, and receiving, by the first agent from the second agent, a response message with a cache coherency response state, wherein the cache coherency response state indicates a cache coherency state responsive to the cache coherency state request vector.

Abstract: Prefetch circuitry may be configured to transmit a message to prefetch one or more cache blocks of a group. The message may indicate an address for the group of cache blocks and a bit field that indicates the one or more cache blocks of the group to prefetch. In some implementations, the message may target a higher level cache to prefetch the one or more cache blocks, and the message may be transmitted to the higher level cache via a lower level cache. In some implementations, the message may target a higher level cache to prefetch the one or more cache blocks, the message may be transmitted to a lower level cache via a first command bus, and the lower level cache may forward the message to the higher level cache via a second command bus.

Abstract: Prefetch circuitry may be configured to transmit a message to cancel a prefetch of one or more cache blocks of a group. The message may correspond to a prefetch message by indicating an address for the group and a bit field for the one or more cache blocks of the group to cancel. In some implementations, the message may target a higher level cache to cancel prefetching the one or more cache blocks, and the message may be transmitted to the higher level cache via a lower level cache. In some implementations, the message may target a higher level cache to cancel prefetching the one or more cache blocks, the message may be transmitted to a lower level cache via a first command bus, and the lower level cache may forward the message to the higher level cache via a second command bus.

Abstract: Cache circuitry may be configured to receive a first message to downgrade a permission associated with data stored in a current level cache. For example, the current level cache could be a level two (L2) cache. The cache circuitry could receive the first message from a processor core having a level one (L1) cache. The cache circuitry may forward the first message to a higher level cache. For example, the higher level cache could be a level three (L3) cache. The cache circuitry may downgrade the permission associated with data stored in the current level cache based on receiving a second message from the higher level cache. The cache circuitry may forward the first message before receiving the second message and downgrading the permission. The second message may cause downgrade of the permission in multiple caches (e.g., the L1, L2, and L3 caches).

Abstract: An agent may be configured to invoke a first eviction operation that is interruptible by probe operations when receiving a first type of eviction message and invoke a second eviction operation in which probe operations are interruptible by the second eviction operation when receiving a second type of eviction message. In some implementations, the agent may maintain a data storage that is inclusive of at least one of unique or dirty cache blocks in a cache maintained by an agent that transmits the second type of eviction message. In some implementations, the agent may prevent a cache block from transitioning from a modified state to an exclusive state when the agent invokes the second eviction operation to evict the cache block. In some implementations, the agent may convert from the second eviction operation to the first eviction operation when receiving the second type of eviction message.

Abstract: A method for managing orders of operations between one or more clients and one or more servers is disclosed. The method includes partitioning addressable regions of logical servers on or within an interconnect link into multiple regions including a first orderable region, and providing logical client an ability to push ordering responsibility within the first orderable region to a server. Over the first orderable region, two request messages for access to memory-mapped sources including two respective operations are transmitted, and the two request messages originate from a same logical client. The ordering responsibility can include a first rule for order of operations between the two request messages.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for a speculative request indicator is described. A method includes providing, for a cache hierarchy, a messaging protocol used for transfer operations among agents in the cache hierarchy, the messaging protocol indicating acceptable cache coherency states for a cache block indicated in a request message and providing, in the messaging protocol for selection by an agent, a speculative request indicator when sending the request message, wherein the speculative request indicator differentiates between a demand request and a speculative request with respect to the cache block.

Abstract: First agent circuitry may receive from a second agent a first request and a first set of one or more bits. The first request may be part of a data operation. The first agent circuitry may transmit to the second agent a message including a first response to the first request, the first set of one or more bits, a second request, and a second set of one or more bits. The second set of one or more bits may be generated by the first agent circuitry to transmit state information about the second request. In some implementations, a set of one or more wires may be generated for transmission of the second set of one or more bits. The first agent circuitry may receive from the second agent a second response to the second request and the second set of one or more bits.
