Latest Patents

The provided information lists one patent for Malwade: “System and Method of Exclusive Memory Access Among Multiple Processing Devices.” The invention describes a processing system with multiple processing cores, shared memory, a shift table that tracks reservations, and an exclusive monitor that coordinates access.

The system’s eviction policy considers reservation priority, age, whether the shift table is full, and conflicts between reservations. The monitor can evict an older reservation of equal or lower priority, reject a new reservation when all existing reservations have higher priority, and invalidate or lower the priority of stale reservations. Reservations may specify a memory address and a size representing a flexible amount of reserved memory.

Career Highlights

Malwade’s listed patent focuses on managing competing memory reservations and maintaining synchronization among processing cores. The described approach uses reservation age and priority to help determine which requests remain active.
