Assignee:

Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Palo Alto CA

International Classification:

G06F 1200

US Classification:

711169, 711168, 711170, 711161, 711211, 3642328, 364238

Abstract:

In accordance with the present invention, a cache memory subsystem includes a processor, a cache control unit and a SRAM serving as the cache memory. The SRAM is a synchronous SRAM. The cache control unit provides appropriately timed control signals to the SRAM when the processor is accessing the cache memory. The SRAM can be either a pipelined architecture SRAM (register output SRAM) or a flow-through access architecture SRAM (latch output SRAM). The cache control unit is selectably configured to operate in a pipelined mode (1-1-1) or a flow-through (2-2) mode. The cache control unit is configured in the 1-1-1 mode when the SRAM is a pipelined architecture SRAM having a clock rate equal to the processor. When the SRAM is a flow-through architecture SRAM that cannot be clocked at the same rate as the processor, the cache control unit is configured in the 2-2 mode and the SRAM is clocked at a clock rate half of the processor clock rate.

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/043000

Abstract:

A method and a system for providing automatic teller machine (“ATM”) services to the customers of multiple financial institutions where the financial institutions contract with an ATM services provider. The ATM services provider providing multiple ATM's which are connected to an electronic funds transfer network. In an exemplary embodiment, the contracting financial institutions pay fees to the services provider in return for the services provider providing the financial institutions' customers with reduced or no cost ATM access. By contracting out the same set of ATMs to multiple financial institutions, the ATM services provider reduces duplicate ATM costs incurred when each financial institution maintains its own ATM network. Preferably, each of the ATMs of the ATM services provider has similar distinguishing characteristics or “trade dress” so as to make the ATM services provider's ATMs readily distinguishable from other ATMs. The ATM services provider may maintain a database of information about the customers and financial institutions including, but not limited to, the account numbers, the financial institution identification numbers, the transaction histories, and the contractual arrangements for determining the amount of reduced fees to be charged to the financial institutions and their customers. The service provider's ATMs may provide all conventional ATM transactions including, but not limited to, withdrawals of cash, inquiries of account balances, transfers of balances, and deposits of monies and checks.

International Classification:

H04L 12/58
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Exemplary embodiments relate to techniques for presenting and targeting media in communications services. Media, such as live events, updates on a topic of interest, or digests of news sites or other content providers may be surfaced to a user in a number of ways; for example, an article view relating to the topic, a messaging view showing message threads, a media view showing interesting pieces of media, or in an active conversation based on analysis of a conversation and trending topics, such as news events. A system may suggest recipients that may be interested in discussing the content. The recipients may be presented in a ranked order based, for example, on an affinity or relationship of the recipients to a publisher of the content. Publishers may add or remove topics, and may set an end-time at which updates cease. The updates may be presented in a messaging thread.

Abstract:

Resource-action pairs are tracked for a user during network sessions with a network service. A predicted path for a future network session is learned. When the user logs into the network service for a subsequent network session with the network service, the predicted path can be executed automatically for the user with the network service during that subsequent network session.
