Abstract: An out-of-order buffer includes an out-of-order queue and a controlling circuit. The out-of-order queue includes a request sequence table and a request storage device. The controlling circuit receives and temporarily stores the plural requests into the out-of-order queue. After the plural requests are transmitted to plural corresponding target devices, the controlling circuit retires the plural requests. The request sequence table contains m×n indicating units. The request sequence table contains m entry indicating rows. Each of the m entry indicating rows contains n indicating units. The request storage device includes m storage units corresponding to the m entry indicating rows in the request sequence table. The state of indicating whether one request is stored in the corresponding storage unit of the m storage units is recoded in the request sequence table. The storage sequence of the plural requests is recoded in the request sequence table.

Abstract: A metal decorative article includes: a first decorative member formed with a first hole pattern of through-holes, the first hole pattern having inner and outer sides, each of the through-holes extending from the outer side to the inner side, and having an outer peripheral edge on the outer side and an inner peripheral edge on the inner side, the outer peripheral edge of each of the through-holes having dimensions different from those of the inner peripheral edge of the respective one of the through-holes; a second decorative member formed with a second hole pattern of through-holes having inner and outer sides that are respectively symmetrical to the inner and outer sides of the first hole pattern; and a frame defining a frame space. The first and second decorative members are respectively received in the frame space of the frame such that the inner sides face each other and are spaced apart from each other by a gap.
