Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a decoupled crossbar for a stream processor are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes at least a multi-lane execution pipeline, a vector register file, and a crossbar. The system is configured to determine if a given instruction in an instruction stream requires a permutation on data operands retrieved from the vector register file. The system conveys the data operands to the multi-lane execution pipeline on a first path which includes the crossbar responsive to determining the given instruction requires a permutation on the data operands. The crossbar then performs the necessary permutation to route the data operands to the proper processing lanes. Otherwise, the system conveys the data operands to the multi-lane execution pipeline on a second path which bypasses the crossbar responsive to determining the given instruction does not require a permutation on the input operands.

Abstract: A system and a process for a session layer protocol allows a large number of client machines to receive a reliable data stream over inherently unreliable multicast connections in a highly efficient and scalable manner. More specifically, streaming of high-quality video, audio, stock and news tickers, or any other application specific data that requires a reliable data stream is described. The streaming allows for the source to instruct individuals to drop their connection to the stream to prevent noisy individuals from disrupting the operating efficiency of the stream.

Abstract: A system and a process for converting analog or digital video presentations such that the presentations remain within a browser as used in Intranet or Internet related applications or the like. A process for modified encoding, proprietary implementation using constant prediction based vectoring to eliminate image error factors resulting in a convergence of quality while eliminating arbitrary positioning to reduce bandwidth transfer rates, multiplexing of variable bit streams, encryption, thread manipulation, plug-in technologies, browser resource utilization, and a unique method of caching, buffering, synchronization, timing, and on-line installation of the plug-in. Further, the present invention may be used in a variety of applications including talking advertising banners, home pages, news reports, greeting cards, sports and entertainment programming, training and education, video conferencing, video E-Mail grams, internet video telephone, webcams, even wireless video telephones.
