Abstract: Techniques, including a method, for detecting an input object. The method includes driving sensing signals onto and receiving resulting signals with a first plurality of sensor electrodes and a second plurality of sensor electrodes to determine first changes of capacitance between the first plurality of sensor electrodes and an input object and the second plurality of sensor electrodes and the input object. The method also includes driving the first plurality of sensor electrodes with transmitter signals and receiving resulting signals with the second plurality of sensor electrodes to determine second changes of capacitance between the first plurality of sensor electrodes and the second plurality of sensor electrodes. The method further includes entering a high noise mode based on a comparison between the first changes of capacitance and the second changes of capacitance.

Abstract: A cache system and a method for controlling the cache system are provided. The cache system includes a plurality of caches, a buffer module, and a migration selector. Each of the caches is accessed by a corresponding processor. Each of the caches includes a plurality of cache sets and each of the cache sets includes a plurality of cache lines. The buffer module is coupled to the caches for receiving and storing data evicted due to conflict miss from a source cache line of a source cache set of a source cache among the caches. The migration selector is coupled to the caches and the buffer module. The migration selector selects, from all the cache sets, a destination cache set of a destination cache among the caches according to a predetermined condition and causing the evicted data to be sent from the buffer module to the destination cache set.

Abstract: An iSCSI target apparatus is disclosed. The iSCSI target apparatus includes a buffer device, a network interface, and a host storage hardware. The buffer device is for buffering at least a packet. The network interface is coupled to the buffer device for accessing the buffer device to transfer the packet between the network interface and the buffer device. The host storage hardware is coupled to the buffer device for accessing the buffer device to transfer the packet between the host storage hardware and the buffer device. Movement of the packet in the iSCSI target apparatus only occurs between the network interface and the buffer device and between the host storage hardware and the buffer device.
