Abstract: A system (10) uses shared resources (44, 54) to perform conventional load/store operations, to preload custom data from external sources, and to efficiently manage error handling in a cache (42, 52, 48). A reload buffer (44, 54) is used in conjunction with a cache (42, 52) operating in a write-through mode to permit lower level memory in the system to operate in a more efficient write-back mode. A control signal (70) selectively enables the pushing of data into the cache (42, 52, 48) from an external source. The control signal utilizes one or more attribute fields that provide functional information and define memory characteristics.

Abstract: A clamp device 10 including both fixed 10" and moveable versions 10' attached to a portion of a ladder adjustment apparatus 110 for engaging the rungs 101 of a ladder 100. The device 10 comprises a lower generally C-shaped jaw member 20 having a recess 26 to receive an adapter member 50 to grasp the rung of the ladder 100. The lower jaw member 20 is pivotally connected to a portion of the ladder adjustment apparatus 110 to accommodate the angular orientation of the adjustment apparatus 110 relative to the rungs 101 of the ladder 110.

Abstract: A ladder adjustment apparatus (10) which is designed to be secured to the rungs (101) of a ladder (100) whereby the apparatus (10) may be laterally shifted on the rungs (101) to position the apparatus (10) adjacent either leg (102) of the ladder without the need for physically detaching the apparatus (10) from the ladder (100).
