Scalable input/output system and techniques to transmit data between domains without a central processor
An apparatus for managing input/output (I/O) data may include a streaming I/O controller to receive data from a load/store domain component and output the data as first streaming data of a first data type comprising a first data movement type and first data format type. The apparatus may also include at least one accelerator coupled to the streaming I/O controller to receive the first streaming data, transform the first streaming data to second streaming data having a second data type different than the first data type, and output the second streaming data. In addition, the apparatus may include a streaming interconnect to conduct the second data to a peer device configured to receive data of the second data type.
Method for sending by an upstream device to a downstream device data from a virtual channel sharing a same input buffer memory of the downstream device, corresponding computer program and system
A method for sending data, from an upstream device to a downstream device, including sending a piece of data from one among a plurality of virtual channels sharing the same input buffer memory of the downstream device, if this virtual channel uses a number of memory locations of the input buffer memory strictly less than a current ceiling. It further comprises measuring a communication latency between the upstream and downstream devices, and calculating the current ceiling from the measured latency.
Wireless Control Device and Methods Thereof
A wireless control device includes a power source, one or more sensors, one or more switches, a wireless transceiver circuit, an antenna connected to the wireless transceiver circuit, and a processor communicably coupled to the power source, the one or more sensors, the one or more switches, and the wireless transceiver circuit. The processor receives a data from the one or more sensors or the one or more switches, determines a pre-defined action associated with the data that identifies one or more external devices and one or more tasks, and transmits one or more control signals via the wireless transceiver circuit and the antenna that instruct the identified external device(s) to perform the identified task(s).
DATA FLOW CONTROL FOR MULTI-CHIP SELECT
A system, method and computer readable medium for operating a First In, First Out (FIFO) buffer that transfers data between a host and a plurality of endpoints using chip select is disclosed. The method includes receiving a current value of a read pointer and a status for an active endpoint and reading data at a location to which the read pointer points and setting a tag associated with the location to which the read pointer points to indicate availability.
Communicating signals between divided and undivided clock domains
A processor includes a plurality of processing cores; a frequency divider; and a synchronous first in first out (FIFO) buffer. The frequency divider frequency divides a first clock signal that is associated with a first clock domain to provide a second clock signal that is associated with a second clock domain. The synchronous FIFO buffer has a write port that is associated with the first clock domain and a read port that is associated with the second clock domain. The synchronous FIFO communicates the data between the first and second clock domains.
Wireless control device and methods thereof
A wireless control device includes a power source, one or more sensors, one or more switches, a wireless transceiver circuit, an antenna connected to the wireless transceiver circuit, and a processor communicably coupled to the power source, the one or more sensors, the one or more switches, and the wireless transceiver circuit. The processor receives a data from the one or more sensors or the one or more switches, determines a pre-defined action associated with the data that identifies one or more external devices and one or more tasks, and transmits one or more control signals via the wireless transceiver circuit and the antenna that instruct the identified external device(s) to perform the identified task(s).

The method includes receiving a current value of a read pointer and a status for an active endpoint and reading data at a location to which the read pointer points and setting a tag associated with the location to which the read pointer points to indicate availability.
Collision detection for slave storage devices
A method includes transmitting, by a controller of a storage device, a first bit on a data line. The method further includes responsive to transmitting the first bit on the data line, determining, by the controller, a line level of the data line. The method further includes responsive to determining the line level of the data line, determining, by the controller, whether the line level of the data line corresponds to the first bit and responsive to determining that the line level of the data line does not correspond to the first bit, determining, by the controller, that a collision has occurred on the data line.
