Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 10 to millions of new users, hoping the latest version of its market-leading browser will win back customers who have migrated to Google's Chrome and help it establish a toe-hold in the fast-growing mobile browser market.
The world's largest software maker, whose Internet Explorer browser elbowed out Netscape Navigator in the early days of the web, said IE 10 is 20 per cent faster at downloading sites than its predecessor IE 9 and allows for touch-screen commands.
The browser has been available since late October for users of Windows 8, Microsoft's new touch-friendly operating system, but now becomes available for the 700 million or so users of Windows 7.
Microsoft is hoping PC and laptop users will like the new browser enough to consider buying Windows 8 tablets rather than Apple iPad, which does not run Internet Explorer.
Various versions of Microsoft's venerable Internet Explorer franchise still dominate desktop browsing, with 55 per cent of the PC browser market all together. But it has in recent years lost share to Mozilla's Firefox and Google's Chrome, which now account for 20 per cent and 17 per cent respectively, according to tech research firm NetMarketShare.
IE 10 running on Windows 8 has got generally good reviews, and has been hailed as the best version of Internet Explorer yet, but it has not been considered decisively superior to Chrome or Firefox.
In the smaller but faster-growing mobile browser market, Apple's Safari is the runaway leader with 61 per cent, owing to the popularity of its iPhones and iPads while Google's Android browser has 21 per cent.
Tablets running Windows 8, including Microsoft's own Surface devices, have not sold strongly since they were launched last October, restricting IE 10's popularity so far.
Only 2.3 percent of computer users are running Windows 8, according to NetMarketShare.

"Theres no question that Stone Imperial Stout is revered among enthusiasts," states Stone CEO Greg Koch. "I know, because Im one of em and I can hardly wait for it to come out each year!" Some may think that a late Spring release for a special brew of this sort is an odd time for it to come out onto the market. Koch justifies this with the rationalization "What better than a warm time of year to come out with a brew that tastes great as it warms up!" Thats because "ice cold" is certainly not the appropriate way to serve the beer. Nearly without exception, the darker, richer and more alcoholic a brew is, the warmer the serving temperature should be. The Stone Imperial Stout label describes the brew as being "intensely aromatic (notes of anise, black currants, coffee, roastiness and alcohol) and heavy on the palate...expect this mysterious brew to pour like used motor oil and taste even heavier! Serve at 55 degrees."

Ore. deputy shot twice, suspects arrested
Deputy was shot during a traffic stop Wednesday and is currently in serious but stable condition
By PoliceOne Staff
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. — A deputy was shot during a traffic stop Wednesday and is currently in serious but stable condition.
According to the KOIN, Deputy Jason Weber, a seven-year veteran of the force, was conducting a traffic stop when he was shot in the face and side before taking cover.
After a lengthy manhunt involving multiple agencies, 30-year-old William Jack Parkerson was taken into custody early Thursday.
A second suspect, 33-year-old Karey Leigh Pascoe, was arrested a few hours later, according to the report.
Parkerson is charged with attempted aggravated murder with a firearm and first-degree assault with a firearm. Pascoe is also facing similar charges.
The details of the traffic stop have yet to be released. The deputy was transported to a hospital in critical condition Wednesday and is undergoing surgery Thursday.

Democratic leaders "moved swiftly on Wednesday to prevent a combative sequel to the party's primary for mayor, as union officials and party leaders rallied around" Public Advocate Bill de Blasio (D) and former Comptroller Bill Thompson (D) "to end his quest for a runoff election. On a day of back-room maneuvering and deal-making, Mr. Thompson's own inner circle appeared divided over how, or even whether, to proceed, with his campaign. Mr. Thompson vowed to press on," but Thompson campaign chairwoman Merryl Tisch said de Blasio had won a "clear victory" and suggested the race was over. Tisch: "I don't think there's much appetite within the Democratic Party to have a fight here." Al Sharpton, a longtime Thompson ally, "encouraged him to give up his campaign, and an influential labor group, the Hotel Trades Council, endorsed Mr. de Blasio."
But Thompson "found some measure of hope in the uncertain election outcome. With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Mr. de Blasio had won 40.3 percent of the vote, just over the 40 percent required by law to avoid a runoff, but there were more than 16,000 paper ballots, some still arriving by mail, that could push Mr. de Blasio below that threshold when they are counted next week." Thompson: "I want to make sure that every voice is heard, that every vote is counted." (New York Times)
"Sticking by Mr. Thompson on Wednesday was the United Federation of Teachers, the powerful municipal union that threw their support to him." (Wall Street Journal)
LONG WAIT: "The counting process will begin on Friday, when the Board of Elections will double-check the count of votes cast on lever machines at polling places. Then, on Monday, the board will begin tallying paper ballots, although it is not clear exactly how many ballots there will be to count." (New York Times)
"Already some 19,000 valid absentee ballots have been received, and they will continue rolling in until next Tuesday. This means it likely won't be until Wednesday at the earliest that all votes are counted, and we know whether Bill de Blasio indeed clears the 40 percent threshold." (NY1)
JOE'S NEW FRIENDS: Many business executives fear that de Blasio's proposals "could jeopardize New York's economic progress of the past two decades." This concern could benefit former MTA Chairman Joe Lhota (R), who "has accused his potential opponent of advancing an agenda that has 'historically brought our city to the brink of bankruptcy and rampant civic decay.'" (Wall Street Journal)
Lhota's campaign is "preparing to launch a national fundraising" effort. One source: "There will be a national excitement because Joe is a different type of Republican." Sources said that "New Yorkers for Proven Leadership," a pro-Lhota PAC, "will begin airing television ads to promote Lhota as soon as de Blasio officially clinches the Democratic nomination." (New York Post)
Lhota also "plans to reach out to the Rev. Al Sharpton and create a Democrats for Lhota organization. … Aides said that Lhota intends to reach out to Sharpton — a gesture that his former boss, Rudy Giuliani, refused to do during his eight years as mayor." Sharpton spokeswoman Rachel Noerdlinger said her boss would be open to meeting with Lhota. (New York Daily News)

"Wikileaks published more than 8,000 documents purportedly taken from the Democratic National Committee Friday, just days before the start of the party's convention in Philadelphia. The documents included briefings on off-the-record fundraisers and candid photographs."
Hillary Clinton "is widely expected to announce her choice" of vice president "in an email to supporters while on a campaign swing in Florida on Friday afternoon." The consensus: it'll be Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia, although Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack are also said to be in the running.
- A Rasmussen Reports poll shows Donald Trump ahead of Hillary Clinton, 43%-42%, the fourth week in a row he's led the poll (one of the few poll in which he's led consistently of late).
- A Reuters/Ipsos survey shows Clinton leading 40%-36%. In a four-way race, she maintains her four-point lead, 39%-35%, with Gary Johnson and Jill Stein pulling 7% and 3%, respectively.
- And the LA Times/USC daily tracking poll shows a dead heat, with Trump ahead by about half a percentage point.

Auden at Home
In About the House, published in 1965, W. H. Auden gives readers a tour of his home in Kirchstetten, Austria. Each of the twelve poems in the section titled "Thanksgiving for a Habitat," bears a dedication to an individual, one of Auden's friends.
("Down There," about the cellar, is dedicated to Irving Weiss, and "Up There," about the attic, is dedicated to Anne Weiss. Irving Weiss taught in the English Department of SUNY New Paltz and retired in 1985, before I was a student in that department, but he was still around when I was there. Anne was his wife. For me, "Auden dedicated a poem to him" may as well have been the caption under his face each time I saw Professor Weiss. He is still alive, 94 years old, and a profile of him in a recent Long Island newspaper does not mention any of the above.)

au> June 5, 2006 1 Introduction ARM is a a 32-bit RISC processor architecture currently being developed by the ARM corporation. The business model behind ARM is based on licensing the ARM architecture to companies that want to manufacture ARM-based CPU's or system-on-a-chip products. The two main types of licenses are the Implementation license and the Architecture license. The Implementation license provides complete information required to design and manufacture integrated circuits containing an ARM processor core. ARM licenses two types of cores: soft cores and hard cores. A hard core is optimised for a specific manufacturing process, while a soft core can be used in any process but is less optimised. The architecture license enables the licensee to develop their own processors compliant with the ARM ISA. ARM processors possess a unique combination of features that makes ARM the most popular embedded architecture today. First, ARM cores are very simple compared to most other general-purpose processors, which means that they can be manufactured using a comparatively small number of transistors, leaving plenty of space on the chip for application-specific macrocells. A typical ARM chip can contain several peripheral controllers, a digital signal processor, and some amount of on-chip memory, along with an ARM core. Second, both ARM ISA and pipeline design are aimed at minimising energy consumption — a critical requirement in mobile embedded systems. Third, the ARM architecture is highly modular: the only mandatory component of an ARM processor is the integer pipeline; all other components, including caches,
MMU, floating point and other co-processors are optional, which gives a lot of flexibility in building application-specific ARM-based processors. Finally, while being small and low-power, ARM processors provide high performance for embedded applications. For example, the PXA255 XScale processor running at 400MHz provides performance comparable to Pentium 2 at 300MHz, while using fifty times less energy. This report is largely based on material from Steve Furber's book about the ARM architecture [Fur00]. Other sources are referenced throughout the report. 12 History The history of ARM started in 1983, when a company named Acorn Computers was looking for a 16-bit microprocessor for their next desktop machine. They quickly discovered that existing commercial microprocessors did not satisfy their requirements. These processors were slower than standard memory parts available at the time. They had complex instruction sets that included instructions taking hundreds of cycles to execute, leading to high interrupt latencies. The reason for these deficiencies was that early integrated microprocessors were modelled after processors of minicomputers, which consisted of many chips, were driven by microcode and had very complex instruction sets. Therefore, Acorn engineers considered designing their own microprocessor. However, resources required for such a project were well beyond what the company could afford. In early 80's, microprocessor architectures became so complex that it took many years even for large companies with significant expertise in the area to design a new processor. Fortunately, just two years before this, the Berkeley RISC 1 project had shown that it had actually been possible to build a very simple processor with performance comparable to the most advanced CISC processors of the time. Acorn decided to pick up the Berkeley approach, and two years later, in 1985, they released their first 26-bit Acorn RISC Machine (ARM) processor, which
The 4th generation of ARM cores came out in 1996. Curiously. This first ARM architecture is now referred to as the ARM version 1 architecture. ARM7TDMI is based on essentially the same 3-stage pipeline as the very first ARM designed in 1985.000 transistors — a very small number even for 1985. The main innovation in this version of the architecture was support for Thumb 16-bit compressed instruction set. which still remains the most popular ARM product. The main new feature introduced in ARM version 2 was coprocessor support. including the video iPod. It was followed by the second processor in 1987. and contains only 30000 transistors. It used less than 25. but still performed comparably to or even outperformed the Intel 80286 processor that came out at about the same time. the ARM v2 architecture was implemented with on-chip cache in the ARM3 processor. Later. In 1990 Apple made a strategic decision to use an ARM processor in their Newton PDA. Another popular implementation of the ARM v4 architecture 2Version Year Features Implementations . MMU support and 64-bit multiplyaccumulate instructions. it is used in most Apple iPod players. A joint venture was co-founded by Acorn and Apple to design a new processor. The most prominent representative of the 4th generation of ARM's is the ARM7TDMI core. standing for Advanced RISC Machines. The company was called ARM. The release of these processors and the Apple Newton PDA in 1992 marked ARM's move to the embedded market. Thumb code takes 40% less space compared to regular 32-bit ARM code but is slightly less efficient. in particular.also became the first commercial RISC processor in the world. The third version of the ARM architecture was developed by this company and featured 32-bit addressing. It was implemented in ARM 6 and ARM 7 cores.

the classical RISC approach requires the execution stage of any instruction to complete in one cycle. data transfer instructions are one important exception. the original Berkeley RISC design used register windows to speedup procedure invocations. All of the above features facilitate pipelining of the ARM architecture. where the value . In retrospect. Second. that is. However. which was considered too expensive by the designers of the first ARM processor. instructions that process data operate only on registers and are separate from instructions that access memory. Finally. However. this appears to be a wise decision. the ARM ISA is a load-store one. All ARM instructions are 32-bit long and most of them have a regular three-operand encoding. and the other — to perform the actual data transfer. ARM is a RISC architecture. ARM designers rejected this feature as one that would increase size and complexity of the processor. Like all RISC architectures. Completing a simple store or load instruction in one cycle would require performing two memory accesses in a single cycle: one — to fetch the next instruction from memory. While most ARM data processing instructions do complete in one cycle. the desire to keep the architecture and its implementation as simple as possible prompted several design decisions that deviated from the original RISC architecture. Performing two memory accesses in one cycle would. the ARM architecture features a large register file with 16 general-purpose registers. they introduced an auto-indexing addressing mode. in its turn.3 ARM ISA overview In most respects. requires a Harvard architecture with separate instruction and data memories. as register windows did not prove to be a 3particularly useful feature and are not used in the majority of modern RISC processors. in order to achieve better utilisation of the pipeline during 2-cycle instruction executions. This is essential for building an efficient 3-stage fetch-decode-execute pipeline. First.
1 Registers The ARM ISA provides 16 general-purpose registers in the user mode (see Figure 1). such as procedure invocation and bulk data transfers.1) instruction sets. By running application software in user mode. Finally. Register 13 is typically used as stack pointer. but can be manipulated as a generalpurpose register. the 'mode' field selects one of seven execution modes: • User mode is the main execution mode.of an index register is incremented or decremented while a load or store is in progress. and 'oVerflow') and four fields reflecting the execution state of the processor. The general-purpose register number 14 has is used as a link register by the branch-and-link instruction (see Section 3. such as pipelinefriendlyness and simplicity. they significantly speedup performance-critical operations. they still support the auto-indexing mode that proved to improve performance and code size of ARM programs. In summary. While all modern ARM implementations have separate instruction and data caches and can complete a memory transfer in one cycle. Register 15 is the program counter. 'Carry'. although this is not mandated by the architecture. The current program status register (CPSR) contains four 1-bit condition flags ('Negative'. Third. which makes it even more appealing to embedded systems developers. While violating the one cycle per instruction principle.4). while deviating from it in few aspects. the ARM architecture offers all the benefits of the RISC approach. The 'I' and 'F' flags enable normal and fast interrupts respectively. and lead to more compact code. 3. . ARM supports multiple-register-transfer instructions that allow to load or store up to 16 registers at once. the operating system can achieve protection and isolation. The 'T' field is used to switch between ARM and Thumb (Section 8. 'Zero'.

Software interrupts are a standard way to invoke operating system services on ARM.irq mode N Z C V I F T mode 31 0 CPSR unused system mode Figure 1: ARM registers All other execution modes are privileged and are therefore only used to run system software. • Normal interrupt processing mode is entered whenever the processor receives an interrupt signal from any other interrupt source. • Software interrupt mode is entered when the processor encounters a software interrupt instruction. • Fast interrupt processing mode is entered whenever the processor receives an interrupt signal from the designated fast interrupt source. .
In the former case. SPSR registers are used to store a copy of the value of the CPSR register before an exception was raised. an immediate operand should be a 32-bit binary number where all the binary ones fall within a group of eight adjacent bit positions on a 2-bit boundary. ARM provides several registers available in privileged modes only (shaded registers in Figure 1). ARM also supports several multiply and multiply-accumulate instructions . Those privileged modes that are activated in response to exceptions have their own R13 and R14 registers. • System mode is used for running privileged operating system tasks.• Undefined instruction mode is entered when the processor attempts to execute an instruction that is supported neither by the main integer core nor by one of the coprocessors. subtraction. while the second operand can be either register or immediate. This mode can be used to implement coprocessor emulation. In order to further reduce the amount of state that 5has to be saved during handling of fast interrupts. In addition to user-visible registers.2 Data processing instructions The ARM architecture provides a range of addition. The first operand and the result should be stored in registers. ARM provides 5 additional registers available in the fast interrupt processing mode only. which allows to avoid saving the corresponding user registers on every exception. • Abort mode is entered in response to memory faults. Due to the limited space available for operand specification inside the 32-bit instruction. and bit-wise logical operations that take two 32-bit operands and return a 32-bit result that can be independently specified in the 3-address instruction format. the second operand can be shifted or rotated before being sent to the ALU. 3.
while multiple-register transfer instructions provide an efficient but less flexible way to move larger amounts of data. auto-indexed addressing was introduced to keep the pipeline busy while the processor is reading or writing memory. Finally. Single-register transfer instructions provide a flexible way to move 1. and then updates the base register to the computed value. 3.that take two 32-bit register operands and return a 32. Value in the base register is added to the offset stored in a register or passed as an immediate value to form the memory address for load or store.3 Data transfer instructions ARM supports two types of data transfer instructions: single-register transfers and multiple-register transfers. so it is possible to access the value in the next memory location in the following instruction. Two auto-indexed addressing modes are supported: the pre-indexed mode uses the computed address for the load or store operation. An auto-indexed addressing mode writes the value of the base register incremented by the offset back to the base register. which means that flags do not necessarily have to be read right after the instruction that set them. One interesting feature of the ARM architecture is that modification of condition flags by arithmetic instructions is optional. As was mentioned above. but it can be done later in the instruction stream provided that other intermediate instructions do not change the flags. while the post-indexed mode uses the unmodified base register for the . in the original ARM pipeline loads and stores took two cycles to execute. Therefore. without wasting an additional instruction to increment the register.or 64-bit result. The main addressing mode is base-plus-offset addressing. 2. or 4-byte blocks between registers and memory. ARM supports binary comparison operations that do not return any values but only modify condition flags in the CPSR register.
This value is also stored in the PC register. multiple instruction issue.1 The 3-stage pipeline Figure 2a shows the original 3-stage ARM pipeline that remained essentially unchanged from the first ARM processor to the ARM7TDMI core. The first pipeline stage reads an instruction from memory and increments the value of the instruction address register. 3. which. It is a classical fetch-decode-execute pipeline. speculation. This section traces the evolution of the ARM integer pipeline between ARM1 and ARM11 processors.4 Control flow instructions In addition to usual conditional and unconditional branch instructions. register renaming. and then updates the base register to the computed address. 4. in the absence of pipeline hazards and memory accesses. and other complex optimisations found in modern microprocessors. even the latest ARM pipelines remain quite simple. The third . 4 Evolution of the ARM pipeline One important property of the ARM architecture mentioned above is its simplicity. the ARM architecture provides support for conditional execution of arbitrary instructions: any instruction can be predicated using values of CPSR condition flags. The next stage decodes the instruction and prepares control signals required to execute it on. which stores the value of the next instruction to be fetched. out-of-order execution.transfer. ARM supports efficient procedure invocations using a branch-and-link instruction that saves the address of the instruction following the branch to R14. Autoindexed addressing modes are also supported for multiple-register transfers. completes one instruction per cycle. Multiple-register transfer instructions allow to load or store any subset of the 6sixteen general-purpose registers from/to sequential memory addresses. Without register windows.
there are several places in the pipeline where the next instruction address can be issued. performs ALU operations. then the result of the ALU operation is used as the next instruction address. If it is a load or store instruction. Finally. the result generated by the ALU is written directly to the register file and the execution stage completes in one cycle. it is incremented on every cycle during the fetch stage. reads or writes memory. the memory address computed by the ALU is placed on the address bus and the actual memory access is performed during the second cycle of the execute stage. a load to R15 has a similar effect. and finally writes back modified register values. In case the instruction being executed is a data processing instruction.stage does all the actual work: it reads operands from the register file.

is to use separate instruction and data caches. which was used in ARM9TDMI (Figure 2b) and later microarchitectures. First. One way around this problem.2 The 5-stage pipeline The pipeline structure shown in Figure 2a assumes availability of only one memory port. Second. the execute stage was split into 3 stages.

The branch predictor tries to look ahead the instruction stream and predicts backward pointing branches as taken and forward pointing branches as not taken.first stage performs arithmetic computations. Next. which lead to a better balanced pipeline and enabled it to run at a higher clock rate. 64-bit data bus allowed to improve the performance of multiple-register transfer instructions by transferring two registers at a time. The forwarding paths are shown with black arrows in Figure 2b. This trivial algorithm eliminates the penalty of branches for loops that execute many times. In the fetch stage. which enabled the introduction of a static branch prediction unit. 4. but there is one new complication — the need to forward data among pipeline stages to resolve data dependencies between stages without stalling the pipeline. Designers realised that the pipeline performance was mainly constrained by memory bandwidth. In the execution section of the pipeline. they made both instruction and data buses 64-bit-wide. Therefore. In order to remove this . At this point. the second stage performs memory accesses (this stage remains idle when executing data processing instructions) and the third stage writes the results back to the register file. this adder could be placed to the data stage. the memory access stage became the longest running pipeline stage. hindering further growth of clock frequency. which can run at faster clock rate. This results in a much better balanced pipeline. ARM10 unloaded the execute stage by introducing a separate adder for multiply-accumulate instructions instead of using the main ALU to do addition.3 The 6-stage pipeline The ARM10 core made further improvements to the pipeline structure (see Figure 2c). this allowed to fetch two instructions on each cycle. Since multiply instructions do not read or write memory.
5 Exceptions The ARM architecture defines the following types of exceptions (listed in the order of decreasing priority): • Reset starts the processor from a known state and renders all other pending exceptions irrelevant. fetch and decode stages are executed in order. this adder could complete its computation in less than 1 cycle. Since address computation is always just a simple addition. The last improvement introduced in the ARM10 pipeline was separation of instruction decoding into a separate stage. another adder dedicated to address computation was introduced. both instruction and data cache accesses are now distributed across 2 pipeline stages. effectively leaving one and a half cycles for the memory access. Still. • Data abort exception is raised by memory management hardware when a load or store instruction violates memory access permissions. • Normal interrupt exception is raised whenever the processor receives an interrupt signal from any non-fast interrupt source.performance bottleneck.4 The 8-stage pipeline The ARM11 core introduced two main changes to the pipeline architecture (see Figure 2d). First. the shift operation was separated into a separate pipeline stage. • Fast interrupt exception is raised whenever the processor receives an interrupt signal from the designated fast interrupt source. Note that the instruction execution section of the resulting 8-stage pipeline is split into three separate pipelines that can operate concurrently in some situations and can commit instructions out-of-order. 94. Second. • Prefetch abort exception is raised by memory management hardware when .
There are three types of coprocessor-related instructions recognised by the main ARM core. For example. FIQ is also disabled). disables IRQ (in case of a fast interrupt. all exceptions are handled in a similar way: the processor switches to the corresponding execution mode (see Section 3. Another example of a coprocessor is the system control coprocessor that manages MMU. the ARM floating point unit is implemented as a coprocessor.memory access permissions are violated during instruction fetch. there are data processing instructions. TLB. The ARM architecture defines a protocol for interaction between the main ARM core and coprocessors and instructions for data transfer between ARM and coprocessors. saves the address of the instruction following the exception entry instruction in R14 of the new mode. it executes a simple handshake protocol to make sure that one of coprocessors . and starts execution from the relevant exception vector. and the write buffer. Except for the reset exception. Whenever the ARM core fetches such an instruction. • Undefined instruction exception is generated when trying to decode an instruction that is supported neither by the main integer core nor by one of the coprocessors. • Software interrupt exception is raised by a special instruction. Each coprocessor can have up to sixteen registers of any size. First. Coprocessors are required to expose a load-store architecture. saves the old value of CPSR to SPSR of the new mode. 106 Coprocessors The ARM architecture supports a general mechanism for extending the instruction set through the addition of coprocessors. These are completely internal to the coprocessor. typically to request an operating system service.1). caches.
One less standard feature present in most ARM processors is cache lock-down capability that allows to lock critical sections of code or data in cache. Both caches are typically virtually addressed and set-associative with high degree of associativity (up to 64-way).2 Memory protection ARM-based chips come with one of two types of memory protection hardware. but simply defines eight regions within the 114-gigabyte physical address space and allows assigning access permissions and cacheability attributes to individual regions. Finally. since the ARM core does not know the size of coprocessor registers. . Simple systems that run a predefined set of applications and do not require fullfeatured protection are equipped with simple protection units. while the data cache is read/write with copy-back write strategy. the coprocessor controls the number of transferred words itself. The ARM core initiates execution of such instructions by computing a memory address and sending it to the address bus. The second type of coprocessor instructions are load-store instructions that transfer data between coprocessor registers and memory. 7 Memory hierarchy 7. However. The instruction cache is read-only. these operations transfer 32-bit values only. In most implementations. 7. the ARM architecture supports register transfer instructions that transfer data between the integer pipeline and coprocessor registers.

4K. To that end. The MMU supports two-level page tables with page sizes of 1M. On ARM a context switch requires switching page tables. which means simply writing a new value to the domain access register of coprocessor 15. which means that it can access all pages belonging to this domain bypassing access permissions. the running process can be either a manager of a domain. The first mechanism is protection domains. Two mechanisms were introduced to enable operating system designers eliminate this cost in some cases. 64K. virtual addresses issued by a program within the first 32 megabytes of the address space are effectively augmented by the value of the . One major concern associated with memory protection is the cost of address space switching. Other types of pages are described by second-level page table entries. or can have no access to the domain at all. it is possible to do context switch by simply changing domain access permissions. purging TLBs and caches and then refilling them. At any point in time. a client of the domain. 1M pages are called sections and are described by first-level page table entries. In some situations. Every virtual memory page or section belongs to one of sixteen protection domains.General-purpose ARM-based systems are equipped with memory management units (MMU) that provide a virtual memory model similar to conventional desktop and server processors. The second mechanism present in newer ARM cores is the fast context switch extension (FCSE) that allows multiple processes to use identical address ranges. and 1K. Address translations are cached in separate address and data translation lookaside buffers (TLB) typically implemented as fully associative caches. The complete cost of page table switch includes the cost of flushing page tables. which means that is can access pages belonging to the domain according to their page table access permission bits. while ensuring that the addresses they present to the rest of the memory system differ.
these 16bit instructions can be either decompressed to full 32-bit ARM instructions or executed directly using a dedicated Thumb decoding unit. Thumb code is 40% slower than ARM code. [Sea00]. 8.1 Thumb The Thumb instruction set was introduced in the fourth version of the ARM architecture in order to achieve higher code density for embedded applications. On execution. FCSE allows to avoid the overhead of purging caches when performing a context switch. Although Thumb code uses 40% more instructions than equivalent 32-bit ARM code. however it is still necessary to flush TLBs. therefore Thumb is usually used only in non-performance-critical routines in order to reduce memory and power consumption of the system. Thumb provides a subset of the most commonly used 32-bit ARM instructions which have been compressed into 16-bit wide opcodes. 8 ARM ISA extensions 8. it typically 12requires 30% less space.process identifier (PID) register.3 DSP extensions ARM-based systems typically perform signal processing tasks using dedicated DSP coprocessors.2 Jazelle Jazelle is a hardware implementation of the Java virtual machine that allows ARM processors to execute Java bytecode.

Sonic Reducer
By Michael Henningsen
The Red Thread Tension Pins (Badman)
Jason Lakis' (a.k.a. The Red Thread) debut was built on understated alt.country pop numbers that flirted with the broad, windswept soundscape tendencies of bands like Lanterna and the folk-heartedness of the Idahos and Haydens of the music world. Tension Pins doesn't stray far from that elegant formula, but Lakis nonetheless sounds more confident, more in-the-moment and startlingly more relevant with regard to both lyrical content and compositional skill. These 11 songs harbor a dreamlike quality that enables the vilified notions of soft rock to coalesce with indie aesthetics and inklings of countrified pop. Incredible songwriting and unpretentious instrumental prowess. Killer.
Soulfly Prophecy (Roadrunner)
For his fourth album fronting Soulfly, Max Cavalera once again changed the line-up to include former Il Niño guitarist Marc Rizzo, former Megadeth bassist Dave Ellefson and once-former Soulfly drummer Joe Nuñez. Despite the new incarnation, the first half of Prophecy sounds like everything to be found on Soulfly's first three releases. By the time "I Believe" spins, however, it becomes clear that Cavalera did a helluva lot of soul-searching in order to craft the last six songs. And save for a throwaway cover of Helmet's "In the Meantime," Prophecy's second half makes the world unsafe for lesser heavy bands.

Hot mesh! Rita Ora flashes her thong in adventurous black number as she wears her sunglasses to dinner
Shes never afraid to take a fashion risk.
And Rita Ora's passion for experimenting with her style bordered was certainly adventurous as she headed out for dinner in New York on Tuesday.
The 23-year-old singer and actress definitely turned heads in her revealing mesh number - with sheer panels down the side to reveal her underwear.
Scroll down for video
Revealing outfit: Rita Ora, 23, flashed a bit of derriere as she donned a revealing mesh number while out and about in New York on Tuesday
Rita donned the number from London-based fashion label Kokon To Zai (KTZ), which featured white text and a logo emblazoned on the front reminiscent of New York punk band The Ramones.
She paired the see-through oversized T-Shirt with a pair of brightly coloured graffiti-inspired Adidas sneakers.
The Fifty Shades Of Grey actress accessorised the look with a pair of sunglasses and a black leather band bracelet.
Sheer daring: The actress and singer wore the black garment from London-based fasion label Kokon To Zai (KTZ) which also featured a white logo and text reminiscent of the logo for punk band The Ramones
Blonde beauty: In addition to the see-through oversized T-shirt, the British star wore a pair of colourful graffiti-influenced Adidas sneakers
Friendly to fans: The singer and actress even stopped to take a selfie with a follower during the outing
She wore her signature blonde locks down and had natural, complementary make-up on her face highlighted by bright red lipstick.
The British beauty is known for being quite fashion-forward, but did not don the most stylish ensemble as she attended the launch of the DKNY MYNY fragrence earlier in the day.
Rita wore a metallic silver strappy dress with a drop-waist and pleated skirt as she attended the event hosted by friend Donna Karan.
She was joined by Sports Illustrated covergirl Chrissy Teigen who attended the event in a far more fashionable outfit.
Racy: Rita had natural, complementary make-up on her face highlighted by bright red lipstick
Hot mesh! The actress definitely showed off her more adventurous side in the mesh ensemble
Blonde beauty: The Fifty Shades Of Grey Star had her signature platinum locks elegantly combed back and had a large chain bracelet around her wrist
Casual customer: The mesh outfit definitely turned heads on the sidewalk in the Big Apple as she captured the attention of many admirers
The R.I.P. hit maker has recently been named the face of the DKNY fragrance and even spritzed the perfume on Chrissy and other passersby.
Rita teamed her her unusual frock with a pair of matching platform trainers, which no doubt added several inches to her 5ft 5in frame.
When it came to accessories, the singer played it safe while keeping to her silver theme by wearing four arm bangles along with a ring and a dainty necklace.
Send it back to space: Earlier in the day, Rita attended a DKNY event in a bizarre dress from the brand while Chrissy Teigen looked uber stylish
Model support: The British singer was joined by Chrissy to show off the new fragrance DKNY MYNY

complicated but easy

easy as pie
Nice pin
nice attack...
So difficult! Aaaaaaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not bad, for a rookie
I agree that this is an easy puzzle, but ones like this can be valuable. The position is one that you realistically could get into, especially in a game where white has previously slipped up once or twice. It is valuable to look and see if there is a way to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Of course, there usually isn't, but you NEVER spot the opportunities that do arise if you don't practice to find them in situations like this.
