An apparatus and method for providing timing recovery under conditions of low signal to noise ratios (SNRs) is disclosed herein. A preliminary phase error signal is generated by comparing an input signal with a preliminary estimation of an output signal corresponding to the input signal. A correction signal is generated as a function of the output signal, input signal, and preliminary phase error signal. The preliminary phase error signal and the correction signal are combined to generate a final phase error signal.

Noise tolerant phase locked loop

A system and method for a distributed shared memory. The system includes multiple processors, each processor transmitting write commands issued therefrom concerning a shared memory to each of the processors, such that each processor receives each shared memory write command transmitted. The system also includes multiple local memories, each local memory associated with one of the processors and having a copy of the shared memory, wherein each processor completes each received shared memory write command at its associated local memory such that the copies of the shared memory remain consistent at all times. The method includes transmitting write commands concerning the shared memory to each of the processors, such that each processor receives each shared memory write command transmitted, and completing each received shared memory write command at the associated local memory such that the copies of the shared memory remain consistent at all times.

System and method for a distributed shared memory

The dynamically mapped data storage subsystem generates a two error correction, three error detection code of extent sufficient to cover not only the data but also the corresponding memory address for each data record stored therein. The error correction code is transmitted and stored with the data within the data storage subsystem to ensure the integrity of both the data and its memory address.
