The transaction terminal performs item recognition, item tracking, and auditing on the items based the item images during transaction processing at the transaction terminal.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a parallel processing computer system that detects memory errors as a memory client loads data from memory and disables the memory client from storing data to memory, thereby reducing the likelihood that the memory error propagates to other memory clients. The memory client initiates a stall sequence, while other memory clients continue to execute instructions and the memory continues to service memory load and store operations. When a memory error is detected, a specific bit pattern is stored in conjunction with the data associated with the memory error. When the data is copied from one memory to another memory, the specific bit pattern is also copied, in order to identify the data as having a memory error.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed herein for interleaving textures. In the disclosed techniques, multiple textures that would otherwise be accessed separately are interleaved into a single, interleaved texture that can be used to access the multiple textures together. The interleaved texture can include alternating blocks from the multiple textures. The interleaved texture can be generated when the multiple textures are being loaded into memory. Further, the interleaved texture can be accessed using multiple texture headers that are associated with different textures in the interleaved texture. Each of texture headers includes a stride indicating the distance between two blocks from a same texture in the interleaved texture.
