Abstract: A turbine engine having a longitudinal centerline axis. The turbine engine including a fan comprising a plurality of fan blades that rotate about the longitudinal centerline axis and a rotational component coupled to the fan. The turbine engine including a fluid circuit for supplying fuel or lubricant to the turbine engine and a hydraulic fan brake coupled to the fluid circuit to prevent rotation of the rotational component, thus preventing rotation of the fan. The hydraulic fan brake including a hydraulic cylinder fluidly coupled to the fluid circuit and a valve coupled to the hydraulic cylinder and having a first valve position that disengages the hydraulic fan brake to allow rotation of the rotational component and a second valve position that engages the hydraulic fan brake to prevent rotation of the rotational component.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating using of a shared local memory for register spilling/filling relating to graphics processors at computing devices. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes reserving one or more spaces of a shared local memory (SLM) to perform one or more of spilling and filling relating to registers associated with a graphics processor of a computing device.

Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate data intelligent dispatching is disclosed. The apparatus includes one or more processing units including a plurality of execution units (EUs) to execute a plurality of processing threads and collection logic to collect statistics data for threads executed at the processing unit during execution of an application, and dispatch logic to dispatch the threads to be executed at a subset of the plurality of EUs during a subsequent execution of the application based on the statistics data.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods are described including distributing batches of geometric objects to a multi-core system, at each processor core, performing vertex processing and geometry setup processing on the corresponding batch of geometric objects, storing the vertex processing results shared memory accessible to all of the cores, and storing the geometry setup processing results in local storage. Each particular core may then perform rasterization using geometry setup results obtained from local storage within the particular core and from local storage of at least one of the other processor cores.
