In a computer implemented learning and / or process control system, a computer model is constituted by the most currently fit entity in a population of computer program entities. The computer model defines fitness as a function of inputs and outputs. A computing unit accesses the model with a set of inputs, and determines a set of outputs for which the fitness is highest. This associates a sensory-motor (input-output) state with a fitness in a manner that might be termed "feeling".The learning and / or control system preferably utilizes a Compiling Genetic Programming System (CGPS) in which one or more machine code entities such as functions are created which represent solutions to a problem and are directly executable by a computer. The programs are created and altered by a program in a higher level language such as "C" which is not directly executable, but requires translation into executable machine code through compilation, interpretation, translation, etc. The entities are initially created as an integer array that can be altered by the program as data, and are executed by the program by recasting a pointer to the array as a function type. The entities are evaluated by executing them with training data as inputs, and calculating fitnesses based on a predetermined criterion. The entities are then altered based on their fitnesses using a genetic machine learning algorithm by recasting the pointer to the array as a data (e.g. integer) type. This process is iteratively repeated until an end criterion is reached.

A digital system and method of operation is which the digital system has a processor with a virtual machine environment for interpretively executing instructions. First, a sequence of instructions is received (404) for execution by the virtual machine. The sequence of instructions is examined (408–414) to determine if a certain type of iterative sequence is present. If the certain type of iterative sequence is present, the iterative sequence is replaced (412) with a proprietary code sequence. After the modifications are complete, the modified sequence is executed in a manner that a portion of the sequence of instructions is executed in an interpretive manner (418); and the proprietary code sequences are executed directly by acceleration circuitry (420).

Individual test executive sequences may correspond to individual sub-components of a hierarchical system. To test a system sub-component directly without testing “upper” sub-components in the hierarchy, a first test executive sequence corresponding to that system sub-component may be executed directly, without requiring execution of test executive sequences above the first test executive sequence in the hierarchy, or requiring only partial execution of test executive sequences above the first test executive sequence in the hierarchy. Another embodiment of the invention comprises a system and method for enabling propagation or inheritance of test executive sequence local variables.

One or more machine code entities such as functions are created which represent solutions to a problem and are directly executable by a computer. The programs are created and altered by a program in a higher level language such as "C" which is not directly executable, but requires translation into executable machine code through compilation, interpretation, translation, etc. The entities are initially created as an integer array that can be altered by the program as data, and are executed by the program by recasting a pointer to the array as a function type. The entities are evaluated by executing them with training data as inputs, and calculating fitnesses based on a predetermined criterion. The entities are then altered based on their fitnesses using a machine learning algorithm by recasting the pointer to the array as a data (e.g. integer) type. This process is iteratively repeated until an end criterion is reached. The entities evolve in such a manner as to improve their fitness, and one entity is ultimately produced which represents an optimal solution to the problem. Each entity includes a plurality of directly executable machine code instructions, a header, a footer, and a return instruction. The instructions include branch instructions which enable subroutines, leaf functions, external function calls, recursion, and loops. The system can be implemented on an integrated circuit chip, with the entities stored in high speed memory in a central processing unit.

A domain name is associated with the IP address of a first, URL forwarding web server within the domain name system (DNS) so that a request for a website or other resource associated with the domain name is presented to the URL forwarding web server. The URL forwarding web server accesses a file stored on a file server and determining from the contents of the file the IP address to which the domain name should resolve. The file associated with that domain name may contain information that initiates display of static or dynamic content from the URL forwarding web server. Alternately, the file may contain instructions to associate the requested domain name with the IP address of a second, destination web server that has the requested content or resource. Most preferably, the URL forwarding web server performs this access to the file server directly, without executing a script or other interface program supplementary to the URL forwarding web server. For example, the URL forwarding web server may include a module that receives a domain name, accesses the file from the file server and evaluates the contents of the file. When the file includes an IP address to which the domain name should resolve, preferred implementations of the module recognize the presence of the IP address within the file and return the IP address of the destination web server to the browser through which the user made the request.

Accordingly, it is possible to synchronize applications without exchanging packets for obtaining synchronization information of terminals using a TCP / IP protocol.

Fine grained control of cache maintenance resulting in improved cache hit rate and processor performance by storing age values and aging rates for respective code lines stored in the cache to direct performance of a least recently used (LRU) strategy for casting out lines of code from the cache which become less likely, over time, of being needed by a processor, thus supporting improved performance of a processor accessing the cache. The invention is implemented by the provision for entry of an arbitrary age value when a corresponding code line is initially stored in or accessed from the cache and control of the frequency or rate at which the age of each code is incremented in response to a limited set of command instructions which may be placed in a program manually or automatically using an optimizing compiler.

Data recorded in a disk of a hard disk unit is copied to another hard disk unit. A proxy mode, for making the other hard disk unit which has been copied with the data to perform an I / O process to the hard disk unit in place thereof, is performed. Meanwhile, the firmware of the original hard disk unit is updated, and contents of the disk is set up to a latest updated state. Then, the operation in the proxy mode is stopped, and the operation is switched to an operation in a normal mode where the I / O process is directly performed to the original hard disk unit.

The method includes: S1, receiving and parsing a message, and obtaining header information and tag information of a message inlet interface; S2, searching in a first stage flow table to match corresponding flow behavior according to the header information and the tag information; S3, judging whether the flow behavior is 'sending to a second stage flow table', if the flow behavior is 'sending to a second stage flow table', the message inlet interface maps an internal interface, and sends the message to the outlet of the chip through a loopback of the chip, at the moment the internal interface is the inlet interface, the message inlet interface parses the message and searches in the second stage flow table, matches corresponding flow behavior, and conducts step S4; if the flow behavior is not 'sending to a second stage flow table', conducting step S4 directly; S4, processing the message correspondingly according to the flow behavior. On the basis of keeping chip cost, the method achieving the Open flow two-stage flow table through the chip loopback and the system of the method achieving the Open flow two-stage flow table through the chip loopback increase numbers of flow entries and support more flow behaviors through building the two-stage flow table of Open flow, and directional logic of the two grade flow tables is simple.

A first software entity occupies a portion of a linear address space of a second software entity and prevents the second software entity from accessing the memory of the first software entity. For example, in one embodiment of the invention, the first software entity is a virtual machine monitor (VMM), which supports a virtual machine (VM), the second software entity. The VMM sometimes directly executes guest instructions from the VM and, at other times, the VMM executes binary translated instructions derived from guest instructions. When executing binary translated instructions, the VMM uses memory segmentation to protect its memory. When directly executing guest instructions, the VMM may use either memory segmentation or a memory paging mechanism to protect its memory. When the memory paging mechanism is active during direct execution, the protection from the memory segmentation mechanism may be selectively deactivated to improve the efficiency of the virtual computer system.

Arbitrary, unmodified code and / or software may be executed directly on a host processor operating in a virtualized mode using hardware virtualization support and performance counters. The arbitrary software may be run on the host processor until the host processor exits from the virtualized mode. An end execution time may be calculated in response to the host processor exiting from the virtualized mode. An event may then be handled based on an execution time at which the host processor exited from the virtualized mode and a time at which a scheduled event was to occur.

The method further includes employing a software module to directly execute Cause and Effect application logic.

A storage server uses a semantic processor to parse and respond to client requests. A direct execution parser in the semantic processor parses an input stream, comprising client storage server requests, according to a defined grammar. A semantic processor execution engine capable of manipulating data (e.g., data movement, mathematical, and logical operations) executes microcode segments in response to requests from the direct execution parser in order to perform the client-requested operations. The resulting operational efficiency allows an entire storage server to be collapsed in some embodiments into a few relatively small integrated circuits that can be placed on a media device's printed circuit board, with the semantic processor itself drawing perhaps a few Watts of power.
