Abstract: A housing of an electronic device is disclosed. A housing of an electronic device according to various embodiments of the disclosure may include: a base material containing an aluminum alloy material; a barrier layer formed by anodizing the aluminum of the base material on a surface facing a first direction of the base material, the barrier layer having a thickness of 50 to 150 nanometers; a first porous film located in the first direction with respect to the barrier layer; and a second porous film formed between the first porous film and the barrier layer.

Abstract: An example of an apparatus may include a first cache organized as two or more portions, a second cache, and circuitry coupled to the first cache and the second cache to determine a designated portion allocation for data transferred from the first cache to the second cache, and track the designated portion allocation for the data transferred from the first cache to the second cache. Other examples are disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing a lattice structure design are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method for optimizing a lattice structure design can include (i) modeling the lattice structure with a component-wise reduced-order model (CWROM) and (ii) optimizing the CWROM based on a selected criterion using a topology optimization algorithm for lattice design. The selected criterion can include a boundary condition and a load applied to the lattice structure. By modeling the lattice structure as a CWROM, the optimization process can be very fast while still permitting the accurate computation of physical quantities of the lattice structure.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a magnetic tunnel junction layer including a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a tunnel barrier layer interposed between the first and second magnetic layers, patterning the magnetic tunnel junction layer to form a magnetic tunnel junction pattern, forming an insulating layer to cover the magnetic tunnel junction pattern, and performing a thermal treatment process to crystallize at least a portion of the first and second magnetic layers. The thermal treatment process may include performing a first thermal treatment process at a first temperature, after the forming of the magnetic tunnel junction layer, and performing a second thermal treatment process at a second temperature, which is higher than or equal to the first temperature, after the forming of the insulating layer.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to Opportunistic Snoop Broadcast (OSB) in directory enabled home snoopy systems are described. In one embodiment, a plurality of snoops are broadcast to a plurality of caching agents in response to a request for data and based on a comparison of a bandwidth consumption of the link and a threshold value. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for using result-speculative data under run-ahead speculative execution is disclosed. In one embodiment, the uncommitted target data from instructions being run-ahead executed may be saved into an advance data table. This advance data table may be indexed by the lines in the instruction buffer containing the instructions for run-ahead execution. When the instructions are re-executed subsequent to the run-ahead execution, valid target data may be retrieved from the advance data table and supplied as part of a zero-clock bypass to support parallel re-execution. This may achieve parallel execution of dependent instructions. In other embodiments, the advance data table may be content-addressable-memory searchable on target registers and supply target data to general speculative execution.
