65 results about "Write-once" patented technology

In cache coherency protocol literature, Write-Once was the first MESI protocol defined. It has the optimization of executing write-through on the first write and a write-back on all subsequent writes, reducing the overall bus traffic in consecutive writes to the computer memory. It was first described by James R. Goodman in (1983). Cache coherence protocols are an important issue in Symmetric multiprocessing systems, where each CPU maintains a cache of the memory.

Memory array organization and related test method particularly well suited for integrated circuits having write-once memory arrays

In a preferred integrated circuit embodiment, a write-once memory array includes at least one test bit line which provides a respective test memory cell at the far end of each respective word line relative to its word line driver, and further includes at least one test word line which provides a respective test memory cell at the far end of each respective bit line relative to its bit line driver. An intra-layer short between word lines may be detected, such as during manufacturing testing, by biasing adjacent word lines to different voltages and detecting whether any leakage current flowing from one to another exceeds that normally accounted for by the memory cells and other known circuits. Intra-layer bit line shorts and inter-layer word line and bit line shorts may also be similarly detected. An "open" in a word line or bit line may be detected by trying to program the test memory cell at the far end of each such word line or bit line. If successfully programmed, the continuity of each word line and bit line is assured, and the programming circuitry for each word line and bit line is also known to be functional.

Concurrent memory control for turbo decoders

The concurrent memory control turbo decoder solution of this invention uses a single port main memory and a simplified scratch memory. This approach uses an interleaved forward-reverse addressing which greatly relieves the amount of memory required. This approach is in marked contrast to conventional turbo decoders which employ either a dual port main memory or a single port main memory in conjunction with a complex ping-ponged scratch memory. In the system of this invention, during each cycle accomplishes one read and one write operation in the scratch memories. If a particular location in memory, has been read, then that location is free. The next write cycle can use that location to store its data. Similarly a simplified beta RAM is implemented using a unique addressing scheme which also obviates the need for a complex ping-ponged beta RAM.

Microprocessor with customer code store

A microprocessor including memory storage into which ISA customer code routines can be stored after having been decoded into their machine-native microinstructions. The customer code store is not subject to eviction and the like, as a cache memory would be. ISA level code can specify a routine for storage into the customer code store, at a time prior to its execution. The customer code store thus serves as a write-once execute-many library of pre-decoded routines which ISA level applications can subsequently use, permitting a system manufacturer to create a highly customized and optimized system.
