Abstract: A cache subsystem is disclosed. The cache subsystem includes a cache configured to store information in cache lines arranged in a plurality of ways. A requestor circuit generates a request to access a particular cache line in the cache. A prediction circuit is configured to generate a prediction of which of the ways includes the particular cache line. A comparison circuit verifies the prediction by comparing a particular address tag associated with the particular cache line to a cache tag corresponding to a predicted one of the ways. Responsive to determining that the prediction was correct, a confirmation indication is stored indicating the correct prediction. For a subsequent request for the particular cache line, the cache is configured to forego a verification of the prediction that the particular cache line is included in the one of the ways based on the confirmation indication.

Abstract: An anti-corruption coin/token chute assembly is provided for use with conventional coin acceptance assemblies. The assembly includes a coin race having first and second side walls and a floor. The floor is provided with a plurality of apertures to facilitate release of foreign substances. An ejection member is movably coupled the coin race. The ejection member includes a coin race insert that, in the rest position, is nested in the coin race. The coin race insert also includes first and second side walls and a floor. The floor of the coin race insert is provided with a plurality of apertures and is advantageously positioned so that the apertures are in substantial alignment with the apertures of the floor of the coin race. Accordingly, unauthorized foreign substances, such as liquids, that are injected into the chute assembly are drained through the apertures before fouling the electronics of the coin acceptance assemblies.

Abstract: In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a trailer-like multi-sectioned frame is mounted on supporting spaced-apart wheels adjustable intermittently of the height of the frame and having mounted on the various sections of the frame, functional elements including a forward rotatable cutting blade for cutting upper earth soil, a following sub-soil cutting blade aligned to follow in the upper earth cut formed by the forward cutting blade and being formable of a sub-soil groove beneath the slot, a soil-fill-in tine rotatable wheel having laterally curved and directed tine ends extending a breadth wider than the slot such that are trailed along the slot the tine ends cave-in soil to fill the sub-soil groove, a seed-bed-preparing tine wheel mounted to trail in the slot behind the soil-fill-in tine rotatable wheel, and a seed planter of conventional nature mounted to trail the seed-bed-preparing tine wheel to plant within prepared soil along the slot, the tine elements of the seed-bed-preparing tine wheel being c
