  • Publication number: 20250291744
    Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate efficient data sharing for graphics data processing operations is disclosed. The apparatus includes a processing resource to generate a stream of instructions, an L1 cache communicably coupled to the processing resource and comprising an on-page detector circuit to determine that a set of memory requests in the stream of instructions access a same memory page; and set a marker in a first request of the set of memory requests; and arbitration circuitry communicably coupled to the L1 cache, the arbitration circuitry to route the set of memory requests to memory comprising the memory page and to, in response to receiving the first request with the marker set, remain with the processing resource to process the set of memory requests.

  • Patent number: 10583960
    Abstract: A selectively height adjustable pallet including a first member having a first outer surface and a first inner surface, a second member having a second outer surface and a second inner surface, and a plurality of selectively adjustable supports arranged between the first member and the second member. The selectively adjustable supports being operable to establish a first distance between the first inner surface and the second inner surface in a first configuration and a second distance, distinct from the first distance between the first inner surface and the second inner surface in a second configuration. At least one cross member is selectively arranged between the first inner surface and the second inner surface when the plurality of adjustable supports are in one of the first configuration and the second configuration.
