Appl. No.:

6/664131

Inventors:

William C. Brantley - Mount Kisco NY
Kevin P. McAuliffe - Madison NJ
Vern A. Norton - Croton-on-Hudson NY
Gregory F. Pfister - Yorktown Heights NY
Joseph Weiss - Teaneck NJ

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 1516
G06F 1210

US Classification:

364200

Abstract:

A multiprocessing system is presented for dynamically partitioning a storage module into a global storage efficiently accessible by a number of processors connected to a network, and local storage efficiently accessible by individual processors, including the interleaving of storage references output by a processor, under the control of that processor, and dynamically directing the storage references to first or second portions of the storage module.

Inventors:

Joseph Weiss - New York NY

International Classification:

A47J 3708

US Classification:

99332

Abstract:

The means shown and described in the specifications to activate the covers can be modified and/or varied using different means. A year of evaluating and testing a working model of a toaster using the disclosed design proved it to be economically alnd practically superior over other means being considered. Its means of operation prevented damaging of food which, for any reason, protruded out of the toaster's receptacles. The normal operation of the toaster is not affected. The covers do not interfere with the pop up of the toaster. The versatility of the covers' design permits it to be utilized to cover the receptacles to keep the toast warm after toasting without the use of electrical energy, and to cover the receptacles when the toaster is not being used. Better tasting toast is produced as the result of convection toasting effected by the covering of the receptacles.

Abstract:

A multiprocessing system is presented having a plurality of processing nodes interconnected together by a communication network, each processing node including a processor, responsive to user software running on the system, and an associated memory module, and capable under user control of dynamically partitioning each memory module into a global storage efficiently accessible by a number of processors connected to the network, and local storage efficiently accessible by its associated processor.
