Abstract: Embodiments are for processor cross-core cache line contention management. A computer-implemented method includes sending a cross-invalidate command to one or more caches based on receiving a cache state change request for a cache line in a symmetric multiprocessing system and determining a retry delay based on receiving a cross-invalidate reject response from at least one of the one or more caches. The computer-implemented method also includes waiting until a retry delay period associated with the retry delay has elapsed to resend the cross-invalidate command to the one or more caches and granting the cache state change request for the cache line based on receiving a cross-invalidate accept response from the one or more caches.

Abstract: A method for determining a discharge event of a firearm includes receiving by an event detection module, (i) acceleration input signals over time including first acceleration input signals along a first axis, a second acceleration input signals along a second axis and a third acceleration input signals along a third axis; and (ii) rotation input signals over the time including first rotation input signals around the first axis, a second rotation input signals around the second axis and a third rotation input signals around the third axis. A sample event candidate is generated based on the plurality of acceleration and rotation input signals over the time. The sample event candidate is compared to a stored data collection of acceleration and rotation inputs known to represent at least one state of a user of the firearm. A state of the user is determined based on the comparing.
