Abstract: A reinforced hockey stick blade and a related method of manufacture are provided. The hockey stick blade can include a core element defining one or more longitudinal channels bounded by an upper core portion, a lower core portion, and a bridge portion interconnecting the upper and lower core portions. The hockey stick blade can additionally include a plurality of fiber-reinforced plies substantially encapsulating the core element and a reinforcing material received within the one or more longitudinal channels. The reinforcing material can extend longitudinally from a first channel end portion to a second channel end portion, and can include woven or unidirectional fiber-reinforced plies. The reinforcing material can additionally extend transversely across the channel to form a blade structure having increased blade strength and durability over existing composite hockey stick blades.

The tracking system includes a medical attachment device having at least one reflector sensor operable to integrate the first reflector. A processor is communicatively coupled to the medical attachment device. The processor is operable to determine a distance between the medical attachment device and the first tracking region to determine a location of the medical attachment device relative to a subject.

Abstract: An apparatus is described herein. The apparatus includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) component and a controller interface. The controller interface is to allocate register space for interfacing with the USB component and the USB component is virtualized into multiple instantiations. The apparatus also includes a secure environment, and the secure environment further virtualizes the multiple instantiations such that the multiple instantiations are owned by the secure environment.

Abstract: An apparatus for secured playback is presented. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a controller that includes a key derivation module to manage authentication and key derivation. In one embodiment, the apparatus provides a video decryption key to a graphics engine if video data portions in a data stream are retrievable without having to decrypt the data stream. In one embodiment, the apparatus also includes a decryption module to decrypt a part of data in conjunction with an encryption key to generate video information and video data. The controller then writes an encrypted version of the video data to a video buffer of a graphics engine.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a bit processor that includes an execution unit to, responsive to an instruction for access of data of a first bit width, access data of a second bit width, the second bit width having a different number of bits than the first bit width when some of the data accessed includes non-stream data. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Encoded data decoding techniques. A data decoding agent determines a data segment size for a packet that includes a header and a data segment. The data decoding agent determines a segment end location based, at least in part, on the data segment size. The data decoding agent processes subblocks of data from the data segment. The data decoding agent compares a current location to the segment end location to determine if a current subblock of data from the data segments contains the segment end location. The data decoding agent triggers an exception handler if the current subblock contains the segment end location.

Abstract: The architecture and techniques described herein can improve system performance with respect to the following. Communication between two interdependent hardware engines, that are part of pipeline, such that the engines are synchronized to consume resources when the engines are done with the work. Reduction of the role of software/firmware from feeding each stage of the hardware pipeline when the previous stage of the pipeline has completed. Reduction in the memory allocation for software-initialized hardware descriptors to improve performance by reducing pipeline stalls due to software interaction.

Abstract: A device comprising a handlebar attached to a support frame by drive actuation means comprising a shaft or ratchet mechanism operationally connected to a vehicle drive wheel and by steering actuation means comprising a shaft connected to a vehicle wheel. Reciprocating rotational movement of handle bar about a drive pivot axis actuates the shaft or ratchet mechanism. Reciprocating rotational movement of the handlebar about a steering axis actuates the shaft. The drive pivot axis and the steering axis are substantially perpendicular to each other. In a preferred embodiment the drive actuation means includes a three ratchet type device cassette, one ratchet type device inside one in the opposite direction and two in the parallel direction.

Abstract: The invention comprises an apparatus and method of prefetching from a memory device having interleaved channels. The chipset prefetcher comprises a stride detector to detect a stride in a stream, a prefetch injector to insert prefetches onto the memory device, a channel mapper to map the prefetches to each channel of the memory device, a scheduler to schedule the prefetches onto the memory device in a DRAM-state aware manner, a throttling heuristic to scale the number of prefetches, and a prefetch data buffer to store prefetch data. The method of prefetching comprises tracking the state of streams, detecting a stride on one of the streams, selecting the stream with the stride for prefetch injection, enqueueing prefetches from the selected stream, mapping the prefetches to each of the interleaved channels, injecting the prefetches from the selected stream into each of the interleaved channels, and scheduling the prefetches onto the memory device in a DRAM-state aware manner.
