Abstract: Methods and systems for division operation are described. A processor can initialize an estimated quotient between the dividend and the divisor separately from a floating-point unit (FPU) pipeline. The processor can implement the FPU pipeline to execute a refinement process that can include at least a first iteration of operations and a second iteration of operations. The refinement process can include, in the first iteration of operations, generating a first unnormalized floating-point value using the initialized estimated quotient. The refinement process can include, in the second iteration of operations, generating a second unnormalized floating-point value using the first unnormalized floating-point value. The processor can determine a final quotient based on the second unnormalized floating-point value.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of sensors configured to detect an electrical voltage and an electrical leakage current associated with an operation of an industrial machine, and a controller including a processor and a selection device. The selection device is configured to receive from the plurality of sensors a first input corresponding to the electrical voltage, and a second input corresponding to the electrical leakage current. The first input is paired with the second input to generate a paired input. The selection device is configured to transmit an output to the processor based at least in part on the paired input. The output includes an indication of the electrical leakage current or a dissipation factor associated with the industrial machine.

Abstract: A system that enables a person to monitor and/or control a device via a network, such as the Internet, via an interactive hardware module that interfaces with the device and communicates with a module server located locally or remotely from the placement of the module. The hardware module allows for the transmission and receipt of data between the device interfaced to the hardware module and the module server, thereby enabling the user manually or automatically to control or monitor the device via an access medium, such as an API. Furthermore, the hardware module and the module server may enable the activation of an inactive device from a remote location.

Abstract: A processor core includes a storage device which stores a composite very large instruction word (VLIW) instruction, an instruction unit which obtains the composite VLIW instruction from the storage device and decodes the composite VLIW instruction to determine an operation to perform, and a composite VLIW instruction execution unit which executes the composite VLIW instruction to perform the operation.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for allocating quantities of a plurality of orders stored in an order book side at a price level selected for execution is provided, wherein each order has a quantity and a entry time. A time sensitivity parameter is predefined, wherein the time sensitivity parameter is a non-negative real number representing a specific allocation scheme.

A matched quantity is determined for each order of the plurality of orders stored in the order book side at the price level selected for execution.

Abstract: An order cross mechanism is provided where a cross request is received from a first market participant in a single transaction, the cross request specifying a client order and a predefined cross match type. Orders and/or quotes are received from second market participants within a predetermined or randomly determined period of time, and a cross match is performed in the order book immediately after expiration of the period of time. The client order is matched against an order of the first market participant and none, one or more of the orders or quotes received from the one or more second market participants, and the order of the first market participant is generated as an opposite order to the client order and having a higher priority than any orders or quotes received from the second market participants that are of the same price level than the order of the first market participant and that are entered during the period of time.
