 Patent 5267350: Method for fetching plural instructions using single fetch request in accordance with empty state of instruction buffers and setting of flag latches
As the instruction is fetched and decoded and the decoded instruction is fed to the instruction processor, a flag latch is so set as to correspond to the instruction buffer fetched and a report is given to indicate that the corresponding instruction buffer is in an empty state.
An instruction fetch control method is generally arranged so as to have a plurality of instruction buffers, issue an instruction read request to a memory when a part of the instruction buffers becomes in an empty state and store a fetched instruction in the instruction buffer in an empty state.
The instruction fetch control method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the method further comprises resetting the flag latch by using the response signal issued by the memory after the first instruction read request is issued and used for fetching the fetched first and second instructions from the memory.

 Chapter 8. Block Transfers, Mesa Process Mechanism
As with the other Block Transfer instructions, if the source and destination blocks overlap, and the destination address is less than the source address, bytes must be transferred on at a time from the source into the overlap area.
The block transfer instruction move multiword structures from a source address to a destination address, or they com pare two multiword structures for equality.
The arguments to Bit Block Transfer is a short pointer to a record containing the source and the destination bit addresses and bits per line, the width and height (in bits) of the rectangle to be operated on, and a word of flags that indicate the operation to be performed.

 Patent 5414821: Method of and apparatus for rapidly loading addressing environment by checking and loading multiple registers using a specialized instruction
The instruction is decoded through the use of a microcode controller by instruction decode 123, and the operand address is computed by address generator 126 from the data received via path 131.
Upon the request of instruction processor 14 to access a particular data element as either an instruction or operand, the directory of instruction cache 82 or operand cache 84, respectively, is queried to determine if the required data element is present within the associated cache resource.
Instructions from instruction cache 82 are provided via path 106 to control section 104 for decoding via microcode controller and hardwired control logic.

 Patent 4763251: Merge and copy bit block transfer implementation
In the preferred embodiment, the memory is a bit addressable multi-dimensional array memory that includes a micro-processor and special circuitry to perform bit block transfers by accessing data using special circuitry that automatically decrements or increments the addresses.
The accessing circuitry is further used to perform bit block transfers of data within the memory.
A very useful function for bit mapped displays is the ability to move a rectangular block of pels from one place in the bit map to another place and logically combine the source rectangle with the destination rectangle.

The operation defined by the instruction is performed using the memory location as one operand, and the effective address as the other.
T can be set by the SET instruction, or by pushing a byte with bit 5 set and pulling it into P via PLP (in which case the instruction after PLP will be affected as if SET came before it).
Bit 3 is set when a VRAM to SAT transfer has finished, which seems to always happen four lines after the last line in the active display period.

2) The PID instructions don't have to have 0-4095 as inputs for the PV.
What I typically do is have a set of float registers assigned for scaling, and then use the FAL instruction to scale the entire input module's registers into floats in one shot.
I know that in the Modicon PLC you have to use the raw analog signal as an input to the PID function block, but according to the AB manual you do not have to.

In addition there is a block transfer instruction for the high speed transfer of data.
Data is transferred between the 1604 and IO (either a tape controller or the CDC 160) via 3 Input and 3 Output channels that operate concurrent with the main program.
Program interrupt was used to synchronize the various IO transfers.

 Block 4 Part 2 - Techniques of data transfer
Interrupts are a data transfer method by which the device initiates the transfer, but the actual transfer is controlled by the processor.
Such instructions are commonly used to allow programs access to device drivers without the program having to know the exact location of these drivers.
Polling is a transfer technique which is initiated by the processor but controlled by the device.

These instruction transfer a block of data (up to 64 words) from the PLC to a module (BTW) or from the module to the PLC (BTR).
Those instructions are the Block Transfer Write (BTW) and Block Transfer Read (BTR).
The data registers contain the data that is to be transferred in one block.

 Citations: Hierarchical Memory with Block Transfer - Aggarwal, Chandra, Snir (ResearchIndex)
added to the standard RAM special block transfer instructions of the form copy [a 1 : b 1 ] into [a 2 : b 2 ] This is valid so long as the two intervals of consecutive registers are disjoint and have the same size m.
The notions of block transfer and hierarchy are developed further in a parallel model in which memory consists of a tree of modules, where computation takes place at the leaves [6] I O complexity models start with a single disk and CPU with block....
Like HMM, it has a cost function f(z) but additionally it simulates the effect of block transfer by allowing the d 1 locations z, z to be accessed for cost f(z) d.

The RISC core has special instructions for these accelerate units: start execute instruction, wait for finish instruction and block data transfer instruction for the dedicated memories.
This logic block incorporates support for digit-serial DSP architectures on a digit wide basis, without diminishing the support for random and control logic applications.
The key to the suitability of the FPGA for these applications is the fact that each of its basic blocks is capable of processing a digit-size of up to 4-bits.

 Unisys History Newsletter v4n2
The instruction set was expanded to add floating-point arithmetic, binary-to-decimal and decimal-to-binary conversions, and a block transfer instruction for movement of up to 64 words at a time.
Type III instructions were made up of a 6-bit function code, a 6-bit minor function code, and a 6-bit data field.
In Type II instructions, the high-order five bits for the address were always taken from the IAR.

I suggest you should have sequential or alternating block transfer instruction initiated to the RIO at a time.
> You had not mentioned how many block transfer instruction you have.
I think you are block transferring each individual racks (with 18 and 4 modules), so too much packets are involved on every block transfer message.

The jargon usage has outlasted the PDP-10 BLock Transfer instruction from which BLT derives; nowadays, the assembler mnemonic BLT almost always means `Branch if Less Than zero'.
Various programs exist for rendering text strings into block, bloob, and pseudo-script fonts in cells between four and six character cells on a side; this is smaller than the letters generated by older banner (sense 2) programs.
These are sometimes used to render one's name in a sig block, and are critically referred to as `BUAF's.

 Lecture 13: Blits and Double-Buffering
This instruction was capable of copying some number of data bytes from one memory address range to another, and the modern meaning of blit is essentially unchanged: to blit is to copy a chunk of bytes from one memory address range to another -- memcpy if you will.
A video card is a specialized piece of hardware that is able to communicate with the monitor and give it the "instructions" necessary to enable the monitor to determine which color to use for each pixel.
A better solution is to provide the video card with a dedicated block of memory -- either system memory or separate memory on the card itself.

 The Amber Operating System - May 1984
The Block Transfer instruction was included in the DEC PDP-10 architecture for doing this job.
A kernel call can usually be done by a hardware trap instruction and is thus easy to get at.
Code inside the kernel is shared by all users, which subroutines may not be, etc. However, the section on dynamic linking will show that subroutines need not be inside to kernel to be easy to use, and goes into more depth on the problems of putting too many functions in the kernel.
