  • Publication number: 20220197685
    Abstract: Technologies for application-specific network acceleration include a computing device including a processor and an accelerator device such as a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The processor and the accelerator device are coupled via a coherent interconnect and may be included in a multi-chip package. The computing device binds a virtual machine executed by the processor with an application function unit of the accelerator device via the coherent interconnect. The computing device processes network application data with the virtual machine and the application function unit within a coherency domain maintained with the coherent interconnect. Processing the network data may include processing a packet of a network flow by the virtual machine and processing subsequent packets of the network flow by the application function unit. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20160372097
    Abstract: A computerized system, method and device for assisting in the tuning of a musical instrument to a user identified reference pitch comprising, a vibration sensor attachable to a musical instrument wirelessly connected to a computer device such as an iPhone, Android tablet, Windows phone, or other such smart devices (SD) having a display screen and software for receiving vibration data and computing and displaying the difference between the user input pitch and the instrument vibration frequency computed from the vibration data as, sharp, flat, or in tune, to tune the instrument. The system further provides a choice of either an audio or vibration alert signals for directing the user to increase or decrease the tone of the musical instrument matching the reference pitch enabling even visually impaired musicians who may not be able to visualize the data on a touch screen display of the smart device, to tune their instruments.

  • Patent number: 9489861
    Abstract: A computerized system and method for music practice and training to assist a musician to improve their skills in maintaining a tempo and to improve ear-hand coordination, eye-hand coordination and other motor skills while learning to play an instrument. The system receives user defined beats per minute (BPM), rhythms or short segments of a music piece and generates audio reference outputs and visual display of music notes as stimuli. The user responses to these stimuli are measured in time and in the force and intensity of the responses and provided as feedback to the user to improve their response time and intensity to stimuli and assists the user in modifying the responses to the output stimuli to reduce the time between the output stimuli and the user response and thus improve the user's timing accuracy while playing music.

  • Patent number: 9229895
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage media associated with integrated circuits (IC) or system-on-chips (SOC) are disclosed herein. In embodiments, a multi-core IC may include a number of central processing units (CPUs), and a number of input/output (I/O) resources. The IC may further include a switch fabric configured to couple the CPUs with the I/O resources, and a register to be selectively configured to exclusively couple one of the CPUs with one of the I/O resources to form a logical domain that computationally isolates the one CPU and the one I/O resource from other CPUs and other I/O. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 4450534
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus with processing capability dedicated to the display function. This apparatus includes a keyboard for inputting data into the processor system and a display for presentation of the output data from the processor system. The electronic digital processor system includes a memory, an arithmetic and logic unit and two central processing units that operate independently and simultaneously. The keyboard input is connected to one central processing unit and the display is connected to the second central processing unit. The algorithm in the first central processing unit is dedicated to obtaining inputs from the keyboard and performing certain operations defined by the function of the apparatus. The algorithm contained in the second central processing unit is dedicated to the display of output data contained in a RAM in the digital processor system. Since both central processing units operate simultaneously and independently, they both use the same locations in RAM.
