Abstract: A tire direct-pressure shaping and electromagnetic induction heating curing method uses an inner metal mold including large and small segments, a telescoping mechanism, supporting plates attached to the segments, and induction heating coils. A cavity in the middle of the segments is filled of phase change material. The temperature of the mold rises rapidly by the thermal effect of an eddy current generated on the surface of the segments to heat the green tire. When the middle part of the segment is heated to a certain temperature, the phase change material absorbs and stores the excess heat. Therefore, the temperature of the middle part of the segment differs from one of two ends of the segment. Once the tire is cured, the inner mold in the expanded condition and the outer mold support very high pressure for the green tire together.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, a convergent node, and a micro cell base station for managing information of a timing difference between a micro cell and a neighboring macro cell of the micro cell. A convergent node receives information related to the timing difference. The information is sent by a micro cell base station and includes the timing difference. Alternatively, the information includes a frame timing of the micro cell and a frame timing of the neighboring macro cell. If the timing difference is greater than a preset first threshold value of the timing difference, the convergent node to the micro cell base station sends instruction information for adjusting a frame clock value of the micro cell, or sends the micro cell base station reconfiguration information for reconfiguring at least part of timing difference parameters of the micro cell.

Abstract: Techniques for high-performance parallel data sorting are provided. K, M, and N exceed 1. In a first phase, a plurality of unordered data elements to be sorted is divided into K unordered lists each preferably having approximately M elements. Each of these K unordered lists can be independently sorted in parallel using any algorithm, such as quicksort, to generate K ordered lists. In a second phase, N balanced workloads are determined from the K ordered lists by using an iterative converging process capped by a maximum number of iterations. Thus, any non-uniform or skewed data distribution can be load balanced with minimal processing time. Once the N balanced workloads are determined, they can be independently sorted in parallel, for example by using a merge sort, and then combined with a fast concatenation to provide the final sorted result. Thus, sorting operations are fully parallelized while avoiding expensive data scanning steps.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide adaptive power ramp control (APRC) in microprocessors. One implementation of the APRC can compute a present core power and a present power ramp condition in the microprocessor, for example, to determine whether the present power is in a particular predefined control zone and whether the present power ramp is greater than a predefined threshold for that control zone. Those determinations can indicate a likelihood of an imminent, undesirable power ramp condition and can inform entry into a control mode. The APRC can generate an appropriate stall control signal in response to its present control mode, and the stall control signal can stall operation of at least one functional unit of the microprocessor according to a predefined stall pattern. This can effectively combat the imminent power ramp condition by reducing the power usage of the microprocessor.

Compared to resource allocation and scheduling processing based on the traffic type in the prior art, the granularity of classification of the present disclosure is more refined, and can realize more refined resource allocation and scheduling processing, and can effectively improve the efficiency of scheduling processing.
