Abstract: A spindle device includes a shaft housing, a spindle, a bearing liner, a damping adjustment piston and an actuating assembly. The spindle is disposed through the shaft housing. A bearing component surrounds a shaft. The bearing liner is sleeved on the bearing component and has a liner conical surface facing away from the bearing component. The liner conical surface is non-parallel to an axial direction. A damping chamber is formed between the shaft housing and the bearing liner to be filled with a damping fluid. The damping adjustment piston is slidably located within the damping chamber and has a piston conical surface facing the liner conical surface. The piston conical surface is non-parallel to the axial direction. The actuating assembly is to drive the damping adjustment piston to move relative to the bearing liner to adjust a gap formed between the piston conical surface and the liner conical surface.

Abstract: A processor with an elliptic curve cryptographic algorithm and a data processing method thereof are shown. Three elliptic curve cryptographic instructions are proposed in the instruction set architecture for key exchange between an initiator and a responder. The initiator device executes the first elliptic curve cryptographic instruction to generate a key pair (rA, RA). In addition to considering the first temporary public key RA, the responder device further takes the second temporary public key RB into consideration when executing the second elliptic curve cryptographic instruction to generate the responder-generated shared key KB. Based on the temporary private key rA, and the temporary public keys RA and RB, the initiator device executes the third elliptic curve cryptographic instruction to generate the initiator-generated shared key KA.

Abstract: A computing system with a first instruction of an instruction set architecture (ISA) for direct invalidation, without writing back, in a hierarchical cache structure based on one single designated key identification code, and a second instruction of ISA for direct invalidation, without writing back, in the hierarchical cache structure based on a plurality of designated key identification codes is shown. A decoder transforms the first or second instruction into at least one microinstruction. Based on the at least one microinstruction, one direct invalidation request is provided corresponding to each designated key identification code, to be passed to the hierarchical cache structure through a memory ordering buffer. For each direct invalidation request, the cache line write-back and invalidation regarding a designated key identification code is performed on a last-level cache first, and then is performed on the in-core cache modules.
