Abstract: One embodiment of the present includes a heterogenous, high-performance, scalable processor having at least one W-type sub-processor capable of processing W bits in parallel, W being an integer value, at least one N-type sub-processor capable of processing N bits in parallel, N being an integer value smaller than W by a factor of two. The processor further includes a shared bus coupling the at least one W-type sub-processor and at least one N-type sub-processor and memory shared coupled to the at least one W-type sub-processor and the at least one N-type sub-processor, wherein the W-type sub-processor rearranges memory to accommodate execution of applications allowing for fast operations.

Abstract: An electronic music display device having a scanning device for inputting music score image data from a printed musical score. A memory device receives and stores the inputted music score image data. The data is segregated into sections and a performance sequence is programmed whereby a performer can program repeats and forward or backward skips in the music score image data. A display displays at least two pages of the music score image data. An actuator is manipulated by the performer to progress the display to display the sections in accordance with the sequence. Upon each manipulation of the actuator a pre-programmed part of the musical score is displayed. The performer is thus able to smoothly progress between pages of the score, repeat previously preformed parts, and skip to a different part of the score by merely pressing the actuator.

Abstract: A telecommunication interface provides a user or recipient with the capability of a reduced-stressed environment. In particular, the telecommunication interface is interfaced with a telephone system at a call recipient location. The telecommunication interface may be configured to detect an incoming telephone call. The telecommunication interface intercepts the incoming telephone call prior to the ringing and presents the caller with a menu of several options to contact the users at the call recipient location. The telecommunication interface may be configured to place the caller on hold and to send a message to a portable notifier carried by the specific user in response to a selection of the user by the caller. The portable notifier vibrates or visually cues the user of an incoming telephone call or message. The portable notifier may display answering options for the specific user.

Abstract: A shower head, including a container section partitioned into a plurality of containers for storing a plurality of respective products to be dispensed; a selection section rotatably mounted on the container section for selecting a product to be dispensed via an opening provided in the selection section; a mixing section coupled to the selection section for receiving a selected product from the selection section and mixing the selected product with a water stream; and an internal water spout passing through the container section and the selection section into the mixing section for introducing the stream of water into the mixing section for mixing with the selected product.
