  • Method and apparatus for scanning a textile
    Patent number: 8186231
    Abstract: Some embodiments disclosed herein provide novel approaches for rapidly sensing sense line cross-point interaction in a textile such as a carpet or rug. A textile may comprise transmit and receive sense lines configured so that when an object contacts the textile and depresses one or more transmit lines against one or more receive lines, the object may be detected by monitoring unique signals produced by the transmit sense lines into the receive sense lines to detect the object.

  • Method and apparatus for out of order memory scheduling
    Patent number: 7127574
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an algorithm for scheduling read and write transactions to memory out of order to improve command and data bus utilization and gain performance over a range of workloads. In particular, memory transactions are sorted into queues so that they do not have page conflict with each other and are scheduled from these queues out of order in accordance with read and write scheduling algorithms to optimize latency.
