PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide for atomic update primitives in an asymmetric single-chip heterogeneous multiprocessor computer system having a shared memory with DMA transfers. SOLUTION: At least one lock line command is generated from a set comprising a get lock line command with reservation, a put lock line conditional command and a put lock line unconditional command.

Abstract:
In order to increase the number of datastreams provided by a multimedia syst em, a cluster of clusters of multimedia A/V server subsystems is provided. Each cluster in turn is comprised of a plurality of A/V servers, a shared loop architecture pluralit y of data storage devices interconnected to the A/V servers whereby any storage device is subs tantially equally accessible by any of the servers in the cluster; and a highly availa ble control server subsystem interconnected to the A/V servers and the data storage devices for controlling the A/V servers and the data storage devices. Each of the clusters is interc onnected to a high speed switch for delivery of datastreams from the cluster to the end us er. One of the control server subsystems also serves as a master control server assigning a request for a datastream to one of the clusters.

Abstract:
9-81-056 SYSTEM FOR COVERTING DATA PROCESSING INFORMATION TO TEXT PROCESSING FORMAT AND VICE VERSA A method and means for operating an interactive text processing system wherein the system emulates a terminal for a data processing system which is capable of accessing information from the data processing system data base, copying the information into the text processing system memory, and automatically converting the information from the data processing system format into the text processing system format. Similarly, the text processing system is capable of converting information from its own data base from a text processing system format to a data processing system format and transmitting the information to the data processing system,

Abstract:
A shared loop multimedia datastreaming server system in provided. A plurality of A/V servers have equal access to a pool of disk arrays interconnected in a shared lo op architecture such as SSA or FC-AL. Each server delivers a corresponding datastre am from the loop through an isochronous broadband connection to appropriate A/V dev ices. The A/V servers are interconnected by a control loop such as an Ethernet link. A n archive server also accessed the shared storage loop and an archive storage system. The archive server loads titles from archive to the loop as desired and serves as a backup A /V server. A high availability control server cluster interconnects to the A/V server and t he archive server to control resource management, including distribution of titles on the l oop and loading titles from the archive server and balancing the loads on the A/V server s.
