  • Patent number: 12248406
    Abstract: The present application discloses a computing system and an associated method. The computing system includes a memory, a master computing device and a slave computing device. The master computing device includes a memory controller and an input-output memory management unit (IOMMU). When the slave computing device accesses a first virtual address, and a first translation lookaside buffer (TLB) of the slave computing device does not store the first virtual address, the first TLB sends a translation request to the IOMMU. The IOMMU traverses page tables of the memory controller to obtain a first physical address corresponding to the first virtual address, selects and clears a first virtual address entry from a second TLB of the computing system according to a recent use time and a dependent workload of each virtual address entry to store the first virtual address and the first physical address.

  • Patent number: 12248809
    Abstract: A method for data processing on a programmable logic controller (PLC) having a control task comprising a plurality of executable programs, where at least two programs of the control task each have at least one parallel processing section comprising a work package having a plurality of subtasks. The parallel processing sections in the respective programs are assigned predetermined priority levels, which are inserted into a data structure once execution has reached the parallel processing section. At least one parallel processor core checks whether there are entries in the data structure, and, if so, processes subtasks from the work package of the program the priority level at the top of the entries. An expected computational throughput of the control task is continuously evaluated, and at least one of the priority levels is dynamically adjusted if the computational throughput of the control task increases as a result.
