  • Publication number: 20230409322
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for determining a relative order in which respective microoperations of execution threads are performed. In an embodiment, a processor comprises a control register and circuitry which enables an executing program to set a control parameter which is provided by the control register. The control parameter determines whether the processor is to provide a control which applies one or more synchronization requirements to threads of execution which are of the same thread group. In another embodiment, the control is configurable to selectively provide implicit synchronization between some or all such threads.

    Abstract: A machine direction (MD) position profile measurement of a moving sheet records the MD position of each of the cross direction (CD) measurements. A sheet monitoring system includes means for measuring the MD speed of the sheet of material; means for associating measured MD speed with time to generate time-associated MD speeds; means for recording the time-associated MD speeds; a first scanning sensor for measuring a first characteristic of the sheet material wherein the first scanning sensor is located at a first position along the MD and the first scanner sensor traverses back and forth along a CD; and means for associating first characteristic measurements with time to generate time-associated first characteristic measurements. Single and multiple scanning sensors can be employed. For multiple scanner systems where the scanners are synchronized, the technique enables recreation of the real zig-zag measurement path and same spot measurements.
