Abstract: A feed stream of cyclic paraffins may be separated to obtain an overhead of methylcyclopentane or cyclohexane and a bottoms stream cyclohexane or methylcyclohexane. The overhead stream may be subjected to separation of normal paraffins from non-normal paraffins with the former being isomerized or the entire overhead stream may be isomerized. In a further embodiment, the bottoms stream may be subjected to steam cracking. In an additional embodiment, the feed stream of cyclic paraffins may be formerly subjected to aromatic saturation.

Abstract: Saturation of a pyrolysis stream is achieved while managing exotherms. The pyrolysis stream is split into at least two feed streams for at least two saturation reactors. The process may split the hydrogen stream into at least two streams for the at least two saturation reactors. A recycle stream may also be provided to manage the exotherm. The feed may comprise at least 5 wt % aromatics.

Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus of overlap in successive transfers of video data to minimize memory traffic are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a reusable portion of a preexisting video data in an on-chip memory that corresponds to an overlapping video data in an off-chip memory, preserving the reusable portion of the preexisting video data in the on-chip memory in a reserved part of the on-chip memory, determining a non-overlapping video data in the off-chip memory, wherein the non-overlapping video data excludes the overlapping video data in the off-chip memory, defining a subsection of the non-overlapping video data, accessing the subsection of the non-overlapping video data, and selectively storing the subsection in the on-chip memory, such that the reusable portion of the preexisting video data of the on-chip memory is preserved in the reserved part of the on-chip memory.
