Abstract: Techniques for data manipulation using integer matrix multiplication using pipelining are disclosed. A first integer matrix with dimensions m×k and a second integer matrix with dimensions k×n are obtained for matrix multiplication within a processor. The first and second integer matrices employ a two's complement variable radix point data representation. The first and second integer matrices are distilled into (j×j) submatrices. A first variable radix point format and an initial value for an accumulator register are configured dynamically. A first variable radix point format is configured dynamically for the first integer matrix and a second variable radix point format is configured dynamically for the second integer matrix. Multiply-accumulate operations are executed in a pipelined fashion on the (j×j) submatrices of the first integer matrix and the second integer matrix, where a third variable radix point format is configured for the result.

Abstract: A guidewire for use in penetrating through complex and stenosed lesions. The distal tip of the guidewire has a roughened surface to increase frictional engagement with calcified and fibrous tissue to increase the penetration of the distal tip and the guidewire into and through the lesion and reduce the likelihood of deflection of the guidewire tip. The average surface roughness of the distal tip is in the range from 1 micron to 200 microns.

Abstract: A system may include a processor having a pipeline, a plurality of counters, and trigger circuitry. The plurality of counters may mount events associated with processing instructions in the pipeline. Counters of the plurality of counters may count different events. The trigger circuitry may trigger a performance measurement for a first instruction after counters of the plurality of counters meet predefined values. Triggering the performance measurement may cause the plurality of counters to reset and then count events associated with processing the first instruction. In some implementations, the trigger circuitry may trigger the performance measurement based on an AND selection and/or an OR selection of multiple counters of the plurality of counters meeting predefined values.
