Disclosed is a system for debugging a computer program. A user indicates a specified breakpoint type, such as a program statement, variable reference, command, etc. The program, including program statements, is then compiled. During compilation, the compiler locates statements in the program corresponding to the breakpoint types and generates a function call into the program at instances in the program of statements corresponding to the user specified breakpoint types. During a debugging phase, a debugger may execute an executable version of the program, including the function calls. Upon processing the function calls, the debugger may stop execution of the program and pass control to the user to perform debugging operations.

A feedthrough terminal assembly for an active implantable medical device includes a conductive ferrule conductively coupled to a housing of the medical device, a feedthrough capacitor conductively coupled to the ferrule, an inductor closely associated with the capacitor in non-conductive relation, and a conductive terminal pin extending through the capacitor and the inductor. The terminal pin extends through the inductor in non-conductive relation and is conductively coupled to active electrode plates of the capacitor. In one preferred form, the terminal pin is wound about the inductor. Additionally, the inductor may be maintained in close association with the capacitor without forming a direct physical attachment therebetween.

The method and apparatus for drilling holes and optionally inserting fasteners of the present invention provide for efficiently drilling holes through a multiple-layer structure because the layers are securely held together during the drilling by an electromagnet and a clamp, each on opposite sides of the structure. The electromagnet and clamp hold the layers together so tightly that burrs do not form within the holes and debris does not accumulate between the layers and, therefore the layers do not have to be disassembled after drilling. In addition, the apparatus and method of the present invention provide for initially drilling the hole with a countersink and for inserting a fastener into the hole, through the electromagnet, immediately after drilling the hole, such that the hole does not have to be revisited after reassembly and drying of the sealant in order to drill a countersink and/or insert a fastener.

A method and system for segmenting wires in the design stage of a integrated circuit to allow for the efficient insertion of an optimum quantity of buffers. The method begins by locating wires in the integrated circuit which interconnect transistors and then determining the characteristics of the transistor and the characteristics of the interconnecting wires. Next, the method computes a first upper limit for an optimum quantity of buffers utilizing total capacitive load wire and transistor characteristics, then the method computes a second upper limit for an optimum quantity of buffers assuming buffer insertion has decoupled the capacitive load. Finally, the method segments the wires by inserting nodes utilizing the greater of the first computation or the second computation. A determined upper limit on buffer quantity allows wires to be segmented such that the number of candidate buffer insertion topologies is manageable. Therefore, an optimum number of buffers can be efficiently inserted by buffer insertion method which utilize the segmented wires.

Apparatus and method offloads processing from a networking processor operating in a storage environment. Three main functions are offloaded: semaphore processing, frame order processing, and timer processing. Offloading of semaphore processing enables ordered access to semaphores. Offloading of frame order processing enables the network processor to quickly transmit an incoming frame if the incoming frame is the next one in the frame order. Offloading of timer processing enables background checking of the timer list.

A power of a square matrix is determined in a time approximately proportional to the upper integer of the base-2 logarithm of the order of the matrix. A preferred embodiment uses two types of look-up tables and two multipliers for a matrix of 15×15, and is applied to a pseudorandom noise (PN) sequence phase correlation or state jumping circuit. An exact state of a PN code can be determined or calculated from applying an appropriate offset value into a control circuit. The control circuit can produce a PN sequence state from the offset value and typically does so within one system clock period regardless of the amount of the offset. Once the exact state is determined, it is loaded into a state generator or linear sequence shift register (LSSR) for generating a subsequent stream of bits or symbols of the PN code. The PN generator system may include state computing logic, a maximum length PN generator, a zero insertion circuit and a zero insertion skipping circuit.
