  • Hole depth measurement device
    Patent number: 9335144
    Abstract: A plastic hand-held measuring device, can measure the depth of a hole or bore or the length of a fixing, having particular application with composite aircraft components. A hook or tang, at the end of an elongate portion, can engage with the far end of the bore allowing the depth ascertained from a first measurement scale. A first formation can engage with a fixing, allowing measurement of the length of the fixing from a second measurement scale. A plastic slide can abut against a portion of the component to be measured and indicate the distance on the measurement scale that corresponds to the length of the dimension being measured. The slide may be arranged to engage with successive indexed formations along the length of the device, so that it is inclined to remain in a position corresponding to an indexed formation.

  • Assessment of processor performance metrics by monitoring probes constructed using instruction sequences
    Patent number: 9298580
    Abstract: Monitoring probes constructed using instruction sequences are used to assess processor performance metrics. A probe comprising an instruction sequence is selected. The instruction sequence can be configured to measure at least one hardware metric. A first probe value is received. The first probe value can be based, at least in part, on the hardware metric. The first probe value can be determined from execution of the probe in a first execution environment. The probe can be executed a second time to determine a second probe value. The second probe value can be based, at least in part, on the hardware metric. The second probe value is determined in a second execution environment including at least one workload. The first probe value and the second probe value can be compared to produce a performance assessment of the second execution environment.

  • Region-weighted accounting of multi-threaded processor core according to dispatch state
    Patent number: 9110708
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an approach is provided in which a thread is selected from multiple active threads, along with a corresponding weighting value. Computational logic determines whether one of the multiple threads is dispatching an instruction and, if so, computes a dispatch weighting value using the selected weighting value and a dispatch factor that indicates a weighting adjustment of the selected weighting value. In turn, a resource utilization value of the selected thread is computed using the dispatch weighting value.
