A hierarchical encoding format for coding repairs to devices within a computing system. A device, such as a cache memory, is logically partitioned into a plurality of sub-portions. Various portions of the sub-portions are identifiable as different levels of hierarchy of the device. A first sub-portion may corresponds to a particular cache, a second sub-portion may correspond to a particular way of the cache, and so on. The encoding format comprises a series of bits with a first portion corresponding to a first level of the hierarchy, and a second portion of the bits corresponds to a second level of the hierarchy. Each of the first and second portions of bits are preceded by a different valued bit which serves to identify the hierarchy to which the following bits correspond. A sequence of repairs are encoded as string of bits. The bit which follows a complete repair encoding indicates whether a repair to the currently identified cache is indicated or whether a new cache is targeted by the following repair. Therefore, certain repairs may be encoded without respecifying the entire hierarchy.

A spatial and temporal memory system (STMS) processes input data to detect whether spatial patterns and / or temporal sequences of spatial patterns exist within the data, and to make predictions about future data. The data processed by the STMS may be retrieved from, for example, one or more database fields and is encoded into a distributed representation format using a coding scheme. The performance of the STMS in predicting future data is evaluated for the coding scheme used to process the data as performance data. The selection and prioritization of STMS experiments to perform may be based on the performance data for an experiment. The best fields, encodings, and time aggregations for generating predictions can be determined by an automated search and evaluation of multiple STMS systems.

A CAM and method for operating a CAM are presented. Copies of a CAM database are duplicated and placed in a first set of CAM locations and a second set of CAM locations. An error detector is used to determine false matches in the case of soft errors within the entries producing those false matches. While the entries producing a match should have the same index location, errors might cause those match lines to have an offset. If so, the present CAM, through use of duplicative sets of CAM locations, will detect the offset and thereafter the values in each index location that produces a match, along with the corresponding parity or error detection encoding bit(s). If the parity or error detection encoding bit(s) indicate an error in a particular entry, then that error is located and the corresponding entry at the same index within the other, duplicative set of CAM locations is copied into the that erroneous entry. Since duplicative copies are by design placed into the first and second sets of CAM locations, whatever value exists in the opposing entry can be written into the erroneous entry to correct errors in that search location. The first and second sets of CAM locations are configurable to be duplicative or distinct in content, allowing error detection and correction to be performed at multiple user-specified granularities. The error detection and correction during search is backward compatible to interim parity scrubbing and ECC scan, as well as use of FNH bits set by a user or provider.

The present invention provides an apparatus and method for storing instruction set information. The apparatus comprises a processing circuit for executing processing instructions from any of a plurality of instruction sets of processing instructions, each processing instruction being specified by an instruction address identifying that processing instruction's location in memory.
