Abstract: A method for cleaning a cache of a processor includes: generating a specific command according to a request, wherein the specific command includes an operation command, a first field and a second field; obtaining an offset and a starting address according to the first field and the second field; selecting a specific segment from the cache according to the starting address and the offset; and cleaning data stored in the specific segment.

Abstract: A memory access controlling apparatus, for monitoring an access of a memory to generate a target watch signal, includes: at least one monitoring circuit, a setting unit and an output circuit. The monitoring circuit corresponds to an address of the memory and holds an access setting value. The monitoring circuit monitors the access of the memory according to the access setting value to generate an initial watch signal. The setting unit holds a setting value for triggering an exception, which is related to a condition for triggering the exception while the memory is accessed. The output circuit is coupled to the monitoring circuit and the setting unit, and is used for generating the target watch signal according to the initial watch signal and the setting value.

Abstract: A method of scaling up an image. The method converts a source image with M*N pixels into a target image with KM*HN pixels and includes the steps of: choosing a pixel from the source image as a processing pixel; analyzing the character of the processing pixel according to values of a plurality of pixels neighboring the processing pixel, and choosing a tilt pattern as a characteristic pattern; calculating a pixel compensation matrix according to the characteristic pattern, the pixel value of the processing pixel, and the values of the pixels neighboring the processing pixel; calculating K*H target pixel values as the target image according to the pixel value of the processing pixel and its corresponding pixel compensation matrix; and repeating the above-mentioned steps until all the pixels of the source image are processed.
