Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed to process instructions in an execution unit (EU) that includes an operand cache (OC). The OC stores a copy of at least one frequently used operand stored in a physical register file (PRF). The EU may process instructions using operands obtained from the PRF or from the OC. In the first mode, an OC renaming unit (OC-REN) indicates to the EU to process instructions using operands obtained from the OC if processing the instructions using operands obtained from the OC uses less power than using operands obtained from the PRF. In the second mode, the OC-REN indicates to the EU to process the instructions using operands obtained from the PRF if processing the instructions using operands obtained from the PRF uses less power than using operands obtained from the OC.

Abstract: A feed transport trailer with a low center of gravity is particularly useful for transportation of particulate material. A storage vessel is attached to a frame assembly which is lower than the attachment point on a tractor. The storage vessel has a central low conveyor mechanism that extends to the rear of the trailer and is used for unloading. The conveyor extends beyond rear axles that have center depressed areas to allow the vessel and conveyor to be located close to the ground.

Abstract: A locking bicycle pedal includes coiled cables on spools with locking mechanisms attached to free ends. The cables may be extended from the spools. The locking mechanism may comprise a key or combination lock. The locking mechanisms attach to the pedal when not in use for locking the bicycle. A bicycle may be equipped with one or more locking pedals. Where two locking pedals are provided, the locking mechanisms of one pedal may interlock with each other and/or the locking mechanisms of the other pedal. The coil and locking mechanisms do not interfere with normal use of the bicycle.

Abstract: A rotary lawn mower having a frame supported by a plurality of wheels for movement over the ground and a rotary cutting deck assembly. A support bracket assembly is pivotally coupled to the frame for movement about a generally vertical axis. A telescoping arm is pivotally coupled between the support bracket assembly and the rotary cutting deck assembly and is adjustable into at least two lengths. An actuator is pivotally coupled between the support bracket assembly and the telescoping arm and is operable to move the rotary cutting deck assembly between a non-cutting position and a cutting position and further capable of retracting the telescoping arm between the at least two lengths to permit the rotary cutting deck assembly to be swung to a side of the frame for easy inspection, maintenance, and adjustment.
