Abstract: Disclosed are apparatuses, systems, and techniques that improve efficiency and decrease latency of remote direct memory access (RDMA) operations. The techniques include but are not limited to unified RDMA operations that are recognizable by various communicating devices, such as network controllers and target memory devices, as requests to establish, set, and/or update arrival indicators in the target memory devices responsive to arrival of one or more portions of the data being communicated.

Abstract: A network device in a communication network includes a controller and processing circuitry.

The processing circuitry is configured to read one or more values, which are set by the work-request initiators in one or more memory locations that are accessible to the work-request initiators and to the network device, and to trigger execution of the operation in response to verifying that the one or more values read from the one or more memory locations indicate that the work-request initiators in the group have provided the respective inputs.

Abstract: An apparatus includes one or more ports for connecting to a communication network, processing circuitry and a message aggregation circuit (MAC). The processing circuitry is configured to communicate messages over the communication network via the one or more ports. The MAC is configured to receive messages, which originate in one or more source processes and are destined to one or more destination processes, to aggregate two or more of the messages that share a common destination into an aggregated message, and to send the aggregated message using the processing circuitry over the communication network.

Abstract: Devices, methods, and systems are provided. In one example, a device is described to include a device interface that receives data from at least one data source; a data shuffle unit that collects the data received from the at least one data source, receives a descriptor that describes a data shuffle operation to perform on the data received from the at least one data source, performs the data shuffle operation on the collected data to produce shuffled data, and provides the shuffled data to at least one data target.

Abstract: A leg muscle, abdominal muscle, and spinal exercise device adapted for imparting curvature to a lumbar or sacral spine of a user and for manipulating the spine and intervertebral discs with decompression force includes a frame for placement on a floor. The frame has a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the top surface and bottom surface are in a spaced apart relationship forming a hollow portion there between. At least one inflatable bladder is carried by the top surface of the frame. A body strap attachment passes through the frame in non-fixed relationship and is partially disposed within the hollow portion for encompassing the user's thoracic-sacral spinal region and securing said frame. An elongate stirrup strap member is attachable to the body strap attachment thereby connecting to the user's spinal region. A stirrup is attachable to the stirrup strap member distal end.
