Systems and methods of efficiently preloading documents to client devices

Documents are preloaded from a server to a client device before the client device submits a request for the preloaded documents. The server predicts which documents to preload based on past user browsing activities at the client device and document layouts. At the client device, specific graphical features may be applied to the links to the preloaded documents such that a user can easily tell which document link is associated with the preloaded documents.

RDMA enabled I/O adapter performing efficient memory management

An RDMA enabled I / O adapter and device driver is disclosed. In response to a memory registration that includes a list of physical memory pages backing a virtually contiguous memory region, an entry in a table in the adapter memory is allocated. A variable size data structure to store the physical addresses of the pages is also allocated as follows: if the pages are physically contiguous, the physical page address of the beginning page is stored directly in the table entry and no other allocations are made; otherwise, one small page table is allocated if the addresses will fit in a small page table; otherwise, one large page table is allocated if the addresses will fit in a large page table; otherwise, a page directory is allocated and enough page tables to store the addresses are allocated. The size and number of the small and large page tables is programmable.

System and method for improving data integrity and memory performance using non-volatile media

A system and computer system for improving data integrity and memory performance using non-volatile media. A system includes a non-volatile mass storage unit, e.g., a flash memory device and / or a hard drive unit for instance. A memory device is used as a high speed data buffer and / or cache for the non-volatile storage unit. The memory device may be non-volatile, e.g., magnetic random access memory (MRAM) or volatile memory, e.g., synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM). By buffering and / or caching the write data, fewer accesses are required to the mass storage device thereby increasing system performance. Additionally, mechanical and electrical degradation of the mass storage device is reduced. Certain trigger events can be programmed to cause data from the memory device to be written to the mass storage device. In one embodiment, the write buffer contents are preserved across reset or power loss events. In one embodiment, the mass storage unit may be a data transport layer, e.g., Ethernet, USB, Bluetooth, etc.

Schedule based data lifecycle management

A system and method for defining a separate lifecycle policy for each of one or more data images. A backup server is configured to select a first point-in-time value, which indicates when to begin moving a data image from a first data storage medium to a second storage medium. The point-in-time value corresponds to a calendar date and an hour or hours of the day. The backup server is configured to continue selecting a respective point-in-time value for each data storage medium within a tiered storage hierarchy in order to define the lifecycle policy. The backup server may be further configured to delete a copy of the data image on a source data storage medium when completion of a move of the data image to a destination data storage medium is detected. Further, the backup server may detect scheduling conflicts between two or more lifecycle policies.

Red blood cells covalently bound with two different polyethylene glycol derivatives

Living cells are modified at their surface with specially selected polymers. Covalently attaching specially selected polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives to the surface of red blood cells (RBC) in aqueous media under mild conditions is a preferred example. The selected PEG derivatives dramatically reduced aggregation and low shear viscosity of RBC resuspended in autologous plasma, and inhibited RBC agglutination by blood group-specific antibodies. The morphology and deformability of the PEG-treated cells were unaltered. PEG coating of the RBC surface is applicable to the treatment of a variety of diseases characterized by vaso-occlusion or impaired blood flow, e.g., myocardial infarction, shock, and sickle cell disease. An infusion solution is prepared containing red blood cells covalently bound to a PEG derivative having a molecular weight of between 2,000 and 5,000 Daltons and a PEG derivative having a molecular weight between 10,000 and 35,000 Daltons.

Hardware virtualized input output memory management unit

Aspects relate to Input / Output (IO) Memory Management Units (MMUs) that include hardware structures for implementing virtualization. Some implementations allow guests to setup and maintain device IO tables within memory regions to which those guests have been given permissions by a hypervisor. Some implementations provide hardware page table walking capability within the IOMMU, while other implementations provide static tables. Such static tables may be maintained by a hypervisor on behalf of guests. Some implementations reduce a frequency of interrupts or invocation of hypervisor by allowing transactions to be setup by guests without hypervisor involvement within their assigned device IO regions. Devices may communicate with IOMMU to setup the requested memory transaction, and completion thereof may be signaled to the guest without hypervisor involvement. Various other aspects will be evident from the disclosure.
