SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS TO IDENTIFY FUNCTIONS FOR COMPUTATIONAL DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18218577 Titled 'SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS TO IDENTIFY FUNCTIONS FOR COMPUTATIONAL DEVICES'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an apparatus that includes a device with computational resources and a circuit. The device is capable of performing computational functions, and the circuit is designed to access these functions based on an identifier. The identifier contains protocol information for the computational function, including information on how to pass a parameter to the function. The parameter passing technique can involve passing the parameter with a command or using a reference to the parameter. The identifier also includes information to identify the specific functionality of the computational function.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus may include a device including at least one computational resource configured to perform a computational device function, and a circuit configured to access, based on an identifier, the computational device function, wherein the identifier may include protocol information for the computational device function. The protocol information may include information to pass a parameter. The information to pass the parameter may include information to pass a parameter to the computational device function. The information to pass the parameter may indicate a parameter passing technique. The parameter passing technique may include passing the parameter with a command. The parameter passing technique may include passing the parameter using a reference to the parameter. The identifier may include a first portion including at least a portion of the protocol information. The identifier may include a second portion including information to identify a functionality of the computational device function.
