  • Publication number: 20050144596
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus and computer-readable media are disclosed for translating human-readable software elements into a machine executable format. According to a first aspect, a method is disclosed for translating human-readable software elements into a machine executable format. The method includes defining a plurality of actions to be performed. Each action is associated with at least one human-readable software element, and each action having an associated element type selected from among a plurality of element types. The method also includes sequencing the plurality of actions according to the plurality of associated element types. The method further includes executing a plurality of asynchronous action processing tasks, and assigning an action to each of the asynchronous action processing tasks in accordance with the sequencing until each of the actions is performed.

  • Publication number: 20050131928
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating extract files. A first example method is disclosed for generating an extract file. The method includes receiving a data request and analyzing the data request to identify at least one record of at least one file containing data associated with the data request. The method also includes extracting the identified records and formatting the identified records according to a comma separated value format. The method further includes outputting an extract file containing the formatted records. Other methods, apparatus, systems and computer readable media are disclosed for generating extract files.

  • Publication number: 20030235203
    Abstract: Disclosed is an extender sublayer device comprising an MII to transmit data between the MII and a plurality of data lanes in an AUI. The extender sublayer device comprises a plurality of internal device pins and a plurality of external device pins where at least some of the external device pins are associated with data lanes in the AUI. Logic may selectively couple the one or more internal circuit pins to one of the external device pins in response to an external control signal.

  • Publication number: 20030038672
    Abstract: A bandgap voltage reference circuit and related method characterized in having a first current source for generating a first current having a positive temperature coefficient, a second current source for generating a second current having a negative temperature coefficient, and a resistive element to receive both the first and second current to develop a reference voltage. By configuring the circuit such that the magnitudes of the positive and negative temperature coefficients are substantially the same, the reference voltage becomes substantially invariant with changes in temperature. Another circuit is provided in conjunction with the voltage reference circuit to substantially equalize the drain-to-source voltage of the transistors used in the voltage reference circuit.
