A mobile processing system is disclosed for the removal of radioactive contaminants from nuclear process wastewater. The system is fully scalable, modular, and portable allowing the system to be fully customizable according to site-specific remediation requirements. It is designed to be both transported and operated from standard sized intermodal containers or custom designed enclosures for increased mobility between sites and on-site, further increasing the speed and ease with which the system may be deployed. Additionally, the system is completely modular wherein the various modules perform different forms or stages of wastewater remediation and may be connected in parallel and/or in series. Depending on the needs of the site, one or more different processes may be used. In some embodiments, one or more of the same modules may be used in the same operation.

Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to semiconductor processing, and specifically to methods and apparatus for surface modification of substrates. In an embodiment, a substrate modification method is provided. The method includes positioning a substrate within a processing chamber; and depositing a material on a portion of the substrate by a deposition process, wherein the deposition process comprises: thermally heating the substrate to a temperature of less than about 500° C.; delivering a first electromagnetic energy from an electromagnetic energy source to the substrate to modify a first region of the substrate, the first region of the substrate being at or near an upper surface of the substrate; and depositing a first material on the first region while delivering the first electromagnetic energy.

A circuit and corresponding method enable mining for digital currency in a blockchain network. The circuit comprises a controller and at least one partial hash engine that (i) implements a hash function, partially, to compute a partial hash digest of a final hash digest for a block header of a block candidate and (ii) generates a notification based on determining that the partial hash digest satisfies a criterion. The controller includes a complete hash engine that implements the hash function, completely. In response to the notification generated, the controller activates the complete hash engine to compute, in its entirety, the final hash digest for the block header, effectuating a decision for submission of the block candidate with the block header to the blockchain network for mining the digital currency. Power savings and reduction in area are achieved relative to multiple hash engines that compute the entire final hash digest.

Systems and methods of selecting a collection of compatible issue-ready instructions for parallel execution by functional units in a superscalar processor in a single clock cycle. All possible instructions (opcodes) to be executed by the functional units are pre-arranged into several scenarios based on potential resource conflicts among the instructions. Each scenario includes multiple groups of predefined instructions. During operation, concurrently for all the groups, an issue-ready instruction is identified with reference to each group based on group-specific selection policies. Further, based on the identified instructions, predefined policies are applied to select one or more scenarios and select among the picks of the selected scenarios. As a result, the output instructions of the selected scenarios are issued for parallel execution by the functional units.

A memory request, including an address, is accessed. The memory request also specifies a type of an operation (e.g., a read or write) associated with an instance (e.g., a block) of data. A group of caches is selected using a bit or bits in the address. A first hash of the address is performed to select a cache in the group. A second hash of the address is performed to select a set of cache lines in the cache. Unless the operation results in a cache miss, the memory request is processed at the selected cache. When there is a cache miss, a third hash of the address is performed to select a memory controller, and a fourth hash of the address is performed to select a bank group and a bank in memory.

Methods and systems for distributing memory requests

An ALU is capable of generating a multiply accumulation by compressing like-magnitude partial products. Given N pairs of multiplier and multiplicand, Booth encoding is used to encode the multipliers into M digits, and M partial products are produced for each pair of with each partial product in a smaller precision than a final product. The partial products resulting from the same encoded multiplier digit position, are summed across all the multiplies to produce a summed partial product. In this manner, the partial product summation operations can be advantageously performed in the smaller precision. The M summed partial products are then summed together with an aggregated fixup vector for sign extension. If the N multipliers equal to a constant, a preliminary fixup vector can be generated based on a predetermined value with adjustment on particular bits, where the predetermined value is determined by the signs of the encoded multiplier digits.
