    • A method and associated apparatus for accessing a plurality of DRAMs in the static column mode by a high performance instruction processor to provide minimum wait state accessing thereby. The method comprises the steps of, having the instruction processor emit each instruction address as an address containing a bank number field, a row address field, and column address field; providing a table for storing a set of open pages being the current row address for each bank where a bank is associated with a respective one of the plurality DRAMs; for each instruction address emitted from the instruction processor, determining whether there is a match between the row address stored in the table and the row address emitted from the instruction processor employing the bank number as an index into the table of open pages; if the two addresses match, continuing the memory access to the indicated bank in a continuing static column mode; and, if the two addresses do not match, overwriting the old address for the indicated bank in the table with the new row address and continuing the memory access by beginning a new static column mode access to the indicated bank. In the preferred embodiment, the method includes, as necessary, aborting the access in progress if the two addresses do not match prior to beginning the new static column mode access to the indicated bank and advising the instruction processor that the access in progress is being aborted and being begun again.

    • An improved communication system for the prevention of lockup in a computer system of the binary n-cube type. Input circuitry at each of the nodes is connected for receiving messages and includes an input buffer for initially receiving the messages. Output circuitry at each of the nodes is connected for transmitting holding the messages prior to and during transmission thereof. A kernel program at each of the nodes acts as an interface between the user process programs and exclusively controls the receiving and transmitting of messages into and out of the node. There is provision for the user process programs to pass control to the kernel program to request the sending and receiving of messages by the kernel program. A lock bit is associated with each message, sensible by the user process programs, and reset by the kernel program when the kernel program has transferred the associated message. Asynchronous transfer circuitry independently and asynchronously transfers the messages as packets between the buffers of the nodes. There is logic for various decisional matters regarding message sending and receipt. There is blockout prevention logic for refusing to receive a message unless a user process program in the node has reserved a buffer of sufficient size to receive the message and for listing messages waiting to be received for which space has not yet been reserved.
    • 一种改进的通信系统,用于防止二进制n型立方体类型的计算机系统中的锁定。 每个节点处的输入电路被连接用于接收消息,并且包括用于初始接收消息的输入缓冲器。 在每个节点处的输出电路被连接用于发送之前和期间的发送。 每个节点上的内核程序用作用户进程程序之间的接口,并专门控制消息的接收和发送进出节点。 用户进程程序提供了向内核程序传递控制权以请求内核程序发送和接收消息的规定。 锁定位与每个消息相关联,由用户进程程序显示,并且当内核程序传送关联的消息时由内核程序重置锁定位。 异步传输电路独立且异步地将消息作为数据包传输到节点的缓冲区之间。 有关消息发送和接收的各种决定事项的逻辑。 除非节点中的用户处理程序已经预留了足够大小的缓冲区以接收消息并列出等待接收的空间尚未被保留的消息,否则存在用于拒绝接收消息的防止阻止逻辑。

    • An I/O data interface provides an access mechanism without requiring additional lines on the bus for device address presentation for the request of access. Each peripheral device can detect an invitation-to-request access signal and in response thereto, to supply its own device address on the bus in a serial manner with any other device requesting access. Respective device addresses are assigned to respective peripheral devices in accordance with their priority, the higher priority devices having a higher address and the lower priority devices having a lower address. If any address bit of a particular device is lower than an address bit on the bus, the device ceases to supply its address bits with the result that only the requesting device having the larger device address will be selected for communication over the I/O bus.
    • I / O数据接口提供访问机制,而不需要总线上的附加线路用于访问请求的设备地址呈现。 每个外围设备可以检测邀请请求访问信号,并且响应于此,以与请求访问的任何其他设备的串行方式在总线上提供其自己的设备地址。 各个设备地址根据其优先级分配给相应的外围设备,较高优先级的设备具有较高地址,较低优先级的设备具有较低的地址。 如果特定设备的任何地址位低于总线上的地址位,则设备停止提供其地址位,结果是只有具有较大设备地址的请求设备将被选择用于通过I / O总线进行通信 。

    • A deadlock-free routing system for a plurality of computers ("nodes") is disclosed wherein each physical communication channel in a unidirectional multi-cycle network is split into a group of virtual channels, each channel of which has its own queue, one at each end. Packets of information traversing the same physical channel are assigned a priority as a function of the channel on which a packet arrives and the node to which the packet is destined. The packet's priority is always increasing as it moves closer and closer to its destination. Instead of reading an entire packet into an intermediate processing node before starting transmission to the next node, the routing of this invention forwards every flow control unit (flit) of the packet to the next node as soon as it arrives. The system's network is represented as a dependency graph, which graph is re-ordered to be cycle free. The resulting routing function of the cycle free channel dependency graph is rendered deadlock-free, and the system's cut-through routing results in a reduced message latency when compared under the same conditions to store-and-forward routing.

    • A digital video display system wherein the various characters to be displayed are displayed in the form of images of the complete character rather than the standard dot-matrix pattern of the prior art. A character generator in the display system stores signals representing the various characters to be displayed which are retrieved from storage in response to a character code. The signals are in the form of a binary code having a sufficient number of bits to represent a different number of levels of gray-scale or luminance values for the various picture elements making up the character image. The binary codes thus retrieved from storage are supplied to a video synthesizer that generates the video signal to display the character images which may be displayed in a number of different modes including white-on-black, black-on-white, black-on-gray, and white-on-gray as well as different combinations of such modes to represent a cursor. The video synthesizer can generate output voltage levels in discrete steps for the different luminances to be employed. The voltage output signals differ from level to level in accordance with the 2.2 root of luminance.

    • An apparatus and method are described for applying a light beam in an extremely precise pattern to a work piece, such as a photographic plate or reticle on which an integrated circuit pattern is to be formed and which will be then utilized to produce integrated circuits. The method includes moving a very narrow beam light source relative to the reticle in a scanning pattern such as an X-Y raster pattern, accurately sensing the relative positions of the light source to the reticle as by the use of laser interferometers, and briefly energizing the light source only when it lies at the locations to be exposed. The light source is energized while it moves, so it is not necessary to stop the light source at precisely located positions. The light source can be moved relative to the reticle, by mounting the light source on a flexible plate that oscillates in substantially a straight line, and by mounting the reticle on another flexible plate that moves perpendicular to the light source and that can be very slowly advanced perpendicular to the oscillating light source, so that after a period of time the light source has moved over every point of the reticle, although only a minority of the points normally will have been exposed.
