  • Patent number: 10565134
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to multicast in a configurable spatial accelerator are described. In one embodiment, an accelerator includes a first output buffer of a first processing element coupled to a first input buffer of a second processing element and a second input buffer of a third processing element; and the first processing element determines that it was able to complete a transmission in a previous cycle when the first processing element observed for both the second processing element and the third processing element that either a speculation value was set to a value to indicate a dataflow token was stored in its input buffer (e.g., as indicated by a reception value (e.g., bit)) or a backpressure value was set to a value to indicate that storage is to be available in its input buffer before dequeuing the dataflow token from the first output buffer.

  • Patent number: 9794334
    Abstract: Methods and systems to process a request received at an application program interface are described. The system receives a request from a client machine that includes a job that is associated with data. The request is received at an application program interface. Next, a peer-to-peer network of processing nodes generates a plurality of sub-jobs based on the job. The peer-to-peer network of processing nodes schedules the plurality of sub-jobs for parallel processing based on an availability of resources that are respectively utilized by the sub-jobs and parallel processes the plurality of sub-jobs before generating task results that are respectively associated with the plurality of sub-jobs.

  • Patent number: 8728296
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for extracting gallium from fly ash, which comprises the following steps: crushing the fly ash and removing Fe by magnetic separation; then dissolving it by using hydrochloric acid to obtain hydrochloric acid leachate; adsorbing gallium contained in the hydrochloric acid leachate with macro-porous cationic resin, followed by eluting to obtain an eluent containing gallium; adding masking agent to mask ferric ion to obtain an eluent containing gallium after masking; adsorbing gallium in the eluent containing gallium after masking with macro-porous cationic resin, followed by eluting to obtain a secondary eluent; adding sodium hydroxide solution into the secondary eluent to react; filtering and removing precipitates after reaction, and then concentrating the filtrate and electrolyzing to obtain metal gallium. The method simplifies the process and improves extraction efficiency of gallium.
