  • Patent number: 8825933
    Abstract: A bus apparatus is provided, which includes a bus master and a bus slave coupled to the bus master through a bus interface. When the bus master sends a bus transaction to the bus slave, the bus slave executes the bus transaction. The bus transaction is speculative by default. The command of the bus transaction indicates whether the bus transaction is a write transaction or a read transaction. When the bus transaction is a write transaction, the bus slave stores the write data of the bus transaction at the address of the bus transaction. When the bus transaction is a read transaction, the bus slave responds the bus transaction with a read data stored at the address of the bus transaction. The bus slave informs the bus master that the bus slave will not recognize further bus transactions in a specific period of time by asserting a bus wait signal.

  • Patent number: 8822697
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a paramagnetic polynuclear metal complex having enhanced self-relaxation rate and thermodynamic stability, and more particularly, to a synthetic method of a novel DTPA-bis-amide-histidine ligand and DTPA-bis-amide-aspartic acid ligand, a novel gadolinium complex ([Gd(L)H2O]) using the ligand, and a paramagnetic polynuclear metal complex using the gadolinium complex. The paramagnetic polynuclear metal complex is able to fix three or more metals (one gadolinium and two metal ions), thereby providing more excellent self-relaxation rate than the commercially available contrast agents. Thus, it can be widely applied to an MRI contrast agent because of meeting the high self-relaxation rate required as a contrast agent of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
