Abstract: A processing system which comprises means for storing a plurality of items defining a queue, pointer means having a first pointer and a second pointer associated with the beginning of said queue and a second pointer associated with the back of said queue; at least one writer for adding items to said queue; at least one reader for deleting items from said queue; and means for updating said second pointer when said at least one writer adds an item to said queue, said second pointer being updated by a swap operation.

Abstract: A computer and a method of operating a computer is disclosed which allow manipulation of data values in the context of the execution of so-called "packed instructions". Packed instructions are carried out on packed operands. A packed operand comprises a data string consisting of a plurality of sub-strings, each defining a particular data value or object. The invention relates to a restructuring instruction which allows objects to be reorganised within a data string thereby minimising loading and storing operations to memory.

Abstract: There is disclosed a single chip integrated circuit device including on-chip functional circuitry and a plurality of diagnostic units connected to monitor the on-chip functional circuitry. The plurality of diagnostic units detect respective trigger conditions by comparing signals from the on-chip functional circuitry with data held in respective diagnostic registers of the diagnostic units. The single chip integrated circuit device further includes trigger sequence control circuitry arranged to receive the trigger conditions and to initiate a trigger message when a predetermined sequence of the trigger conditions is detected. There is also disclosed a method of controlling such trigger sequences.

Abstract: A register of a processor is set to one value when a host is connected to the processor and to a second value when no host is connected. The processor then starts execution after reading the register contents, and in response to the second value being stored it writes a set value to a pointer storage location. When the one value is stored, it leaves the content of the pointer location unaffected.

Abstract translation: 当主机连接到处理器时，处理器的寄存器被设置为一个值，当没有连接主机时，寄存器被设置为一个值。 然后，处理器在读取寄存器内容之后开始执行，并且响应于存储的第二值，将设置值写入指针存储位置。 当存储一个值时，它会使指针位置的内容不受影响。
