Abstract: Selectively bypassing cache directory lookups for processing-in-memory instructions is described. In one example, a system maintains information describing a status—clean or dirty—of a memory address, where a dirty status indicates that the memory address is modified in a cache and thus different than the memory address as represented in system memory. A processing-in-memory request involving the memory address is assigned a cache directory bypass bit based on the status of the memory address. The cache directory bypass bit for a processing-in-memory request controls whether a cache directory lookup is performed after the processing-in-memory request is issued by a processor core and before the processing-in-memory request is executed by a processing-in-memory component.

Abstract: Preemptive flushing of data involved in executing a processing-in-memory command, from a cache system to main memory that is accessible by a processing-in-memory component, is described. In one example, a system includes an asynchronous flush controller that receives an indication of a subsequent processing-in-memory command to be executed as part of performing a computational task. While earlier commands of the computational task are executed, the asynchronous flush controller evicts or invalidates data elements involved in executing the subsequent processing-in-memory command from the cache system, such that the processing-in-memory command can proceed without stalling.

Abstract: Speculative cache invalidation techniques for processing-in-memory instructions are described. In one example, a system includes a cache system including a plurality of cache levels and a cache coherence controller. The cache coherence controller is configured to perform a cache directory lookup using a cache directory. The cache directory lookup is configured to indicate whether data associated with a memory address specified by a processing-in-memory request is valid in memory. The system employs speculative evaluation logic to identify whether the data associated with the processing-in-memory request is stored in the cache system before the processing-in-memory request is transmitted to the cache coherence controller. If the data is stored in the cache system, the cache system locally invalidates or flushes the data to avoid stalling the processing-in-memory request during a cache directory lookup.

Abstract: A system for automatic reordering of replenishment stock is described herein. The system generally comprises a storage bin defining a first compartment and a second compartment in proximity to the first compartment where the storage bin is configured to store a predetermined product. A cover assembly may normally restrict access to the second compartment. When the product is exhausted from the first compartment, opening the cover assembly to access the product in the second compartment may trigger a sensor in proximity to the second compartment. This triggering causes the sensor to wirelessly transmit a signal to a processor to reorder a quantity of the product.

A storage device is provided for storing at least one calibration factor for compensating for errors associated with at least one of at least one current transformer (CT) and at least one potential transformer (PT) that operates on the electrical energy provided to the meter device. At least one processor is provided for processing the at least one calibration factor for adjusting the measuring for compensating for the errors when measuring the electrical energy.

Abstract: An apparatus for reducing the post-detonation pressure of a perforating gun, the apparatus including a perforating gun carrying at least one explosive charge, wherein when the explosive charge is detonated the explosive charge produces a pressurized detonation gas, and a mechanism for reducing the pressure of the detonation gas proximate the perforating gun. The detonation gas pressure is desirably reduced in a time frame sufficient to create a dynamic underbalance condition to facilitate a surge flow of fluid from a reservoir into a wellbore. The pressure reduction mechanism may include singularly or in combination a heat sink to reduce the temperature of the detonation gas, a reactant to recombine with the reactant gas and reduce the molar density of the detonation gas, and a physical compression mechanism to utilize the waste energy of the detonation gas to create work, simultaneously reducing the temperature of the gas and the molar density of the detonation gas.
