  • Publication number: 20230297384
    Abstract: A data processing apparatus is provided. Rename circuitry performs a register rename stage of a pipeline by storing, in storage circuitry, mappings between registers. Each of the mappings is associated with an elimination field value. Operation elimination circuitry replaces an operation that indicates an action is to be performed on data from a source register and stored in a destination register, with a new mapping in the storage circuitry that references the destination register and has the elimination field value set. Operation circuitry responds to a subsequent operation that accesses the destination register when the elimination field value is set; by obtaining contents of the source register, performing the action on the contents to obtain a result, and returning the result.

  • Publication number: 20230217626
    Abstract: Fluid replacement structures used in immersion cooling tanks can include various enhancements to make them functional beyond simply taking up space. For example, the density of fluid replacement structures can be variable to assist with buoyancy control. As another example, fluid replacement structures can be designed to enable vaporized working fluid to be directed to a desired location. As another example, fluid replacement structures can include emergency cooling features, such as different substances that cause an endothermic reaction to occur when they are mixed together. The substances can be separated by a membrane that melts when the temperature reaches a certain point. As another example, a fluid replacement structure can provide structural support for an immersion cooling tank when negative pressure operations are performed. Fluid replacement structures can also include alignment features, lifting features, locking features, mating guides, fiducial markers, or the like.

  • Patent number: 11693666
    Abstract: A predicated-loop-terminating branch instruction controls, based on whether a loop termination condition is satisfied, whether the processing circuitry should process a further iteration of a predicated loop body or process a following instruction. If at least one unnecessary iteration of the predicated loop body is processed following a mispredicted-non-termination branch misprediction when the loop termination condition is mispredicted as unsatisfied for a given iteration when it should have been satisfied, processing of the at least one unnecessary iteration of the predicated loop body is predicated to suppress an effect of the at least one unnecessary iteration.

  • Publication number: 20230196270
    Abstract: Methods and systems for obtaining address data, generating improved deliverable addresses, and generating an improved database of address information. Address data input to a graphical user interface (GUI) may be used to identify a location represented by an address entry in an address database. If the address entry is associated with supplemental address information, the GUI is modified to include a supplemental address information field to obtain additional address data, which is then combined with the address data to produce a complete deliverable address output. A history of delivery notifications, whether failures or successes, together with address data used in attempting the deliveries may be stored and used in determining whether to associate a location with supplemental address information, and to identify type or class of supplemental address information to associate with the location.
