  • Patent number: 11907157
    Abstract: A representative reconfigurable processing circuit and a reconfigurable arithmetic circuit are disclosed, each of which may include input reordering queues; a multiplier shifter and combiner network coupled to the input reordering queues; an accumulator circuit; and a control logic circuit, along with a processor and various interconnection networks. A representative reconfigurable arithmetic circuit has a plurality of operating modes, such as floating point and integer arithmetic modes, logical manipulation modes, Boolean logic, shift, rotate, conditional operations, and format conversion, and is configurable for a wide variety of multiplication modes. Dedicated routing connecting multiplier adder trees allows multiple reconfigurable arithmetic circuits to be reconfigurably combined, in pair or quad configurations, for larger adders, complex multiplies and general sum of products use, for example.

  • Patent number: 11669526
    Abstract: Representative embodiments are disclosed for a rapid and highly parallel decompression of compressed executable and other files, such as executable files for operating systems and applications, having compressed blocks including run length encoded (“RLE”) data having data-dependent references. An exemplary embodiment includes a plurality of processors or processor cores to identify a start or end of each compressed block; to partially decompress, in parallel, a selected compressed block into independent data, dependent (RLE) data, and linked dependent (RLE) data; to sequence the independent data, dependent (RLE) data, and linked dependent (RLE) data from a plurality of partial decompressions of a plurality of compressed blocks, to obtain data specified by the dependent (RLE) data and linked dependent (RLE) data, and to insert the obtained data into a corresponding location in an uncompressed file.
