摘要： In a pipelined digital computer, an instruction decoder decodes register specifiers from multiple instructions, and stores them in a source queue and a destination queue. An execution unit successively obtains source specifiers of an instruction from the source queue, initiates an operation upon the source specifiers, reads a destination specifier from the destination queue, and retires the result at the specified destination. Read-after-write conflicts may occur because the execution unit may overlap execution of a plurality of instructions. Just prior to beginning execution of a current instruction, the destination queue is checked for conflict between the source specifiers of the current instruction and the destination specifiers of previously issued but not yet retired instructions. When an instruction is issued for execution, its destination specifiers in the destination queue are marked to indicate that they are associated with an executed but not yet retired instruction. In a preferred construction, each entry of the queue has a "write pending" bit that is cleared during a flush and when a read pointer is incremented. An issue pointer identifies the entry of an instruction next to be issued, so that the write-pending bit is set when the issue pointer is incremented. Each entry has two comparators enabled by the write-pending bit to detect a conflict with two source specifiers.
摘要翻译：在流水线数字计算机中，指令解码器从多个指令解码寄存器说明符，并将它们存储在源队列和目的地队列中。执行单元从源队列连续获得指令的源说明符，发起对源说明符的操作，从目的地队列读取目的地说明符，并在指定的目的地退出结果。可能发生写后冲突，因为执行单元可能与多个指令的执行重叠。在开始执行当前指令之前，检查目的地队列在当前指令的源说明符与先前发布但尚未退出的指令的目标说明符之间的冲突。当执行指令时，目标队列中的目标说明符被标记为指示它们与被执行但尚未退出的指令相关联。在优选的结构中，队列的每个条目具有在刷新期间和读取指针递增时被清除的“写入挂起”位。一个问题指针标识下一个要发出的指令的条目，以便当发出指针递增时，写入挂起位置1。每个条目都有两个比较器由写入挂起位使能，以检测与两个源说明符的冲突。

摘要： A method for performing integrated section-level and full-chip timing verification is employed for integrated circuit designs that include several section designs. A plurality of bristle timing parameters define timing relationships between the section designs. A section-level verification procedure is performed for each of the section designs to determine whether the section designs conform to predetermined intra-section timing constraints. A full-chip verification procedure is performed for the integrated circuit design to determine the bristle timing parameters and to determine whether the integrated circuit design conforms with predetermined intersection timing constraints.

摘要： A boundary scan based VIH/VIL test scheme for a clock forwarded interface of an IEEE 1149.1 Standard-compliant electronic component is provided. The Standard-compliant component has a test access port (TAP) and a forwarded clock interface including data and forwarded clock inputs for receiving signals from and sending signals to external circuitry during a test operation. Connected to each of such component's data inputs is a clocked and an unclocked input buffer. Coupled to the TAP is an instruction register for receiving Standard defined and other test instructions provided by the external circuitry at the TAP. Also coupled to the TAP is a chain of boundary scan cells, each associated with a different one of the input pins and connected to the output of each input buffer coupled thereto, and a TAP controller for generating control signals to capture and shift data through the boundary scan cells in response to test instructions received by the instruction register. Compliance control circuitry, responsive to the instruction register and the TAP controller, operates to couple each BSR cell to the second input buffer when the instruction register has been loaded with a Standard defined instruction. When the instruction register has been loaded with an instruction corresponding to an input threshold voltage test of the data input pins, the compliance control circuitry couples the BSR cell to the first input buffer.
