Does a "subroutine priority" mean anything in an FPGA?

Since a programmed FPGA is a collection of hardware logic strung together with potentially a great deal of it in parallel, does setting the execution priority properties of FPGA subVIs to "subroutine" really do anything? If you read the description of what a subroutine priority does, it says it devotes all the resources of an execution thread to the subroutine code. This to me implies time sharing of resources. But I don't think time-shared execution threads exist in an FPGA, or do they? Do any of the other possible execution priority levels mean anything to FPGA code?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Execution priorities have no effect in FPGA. Every subVI that does not require arbitration (ie, is either reentrant or used only once) is inlined into the main VI at compile time. As far as I know, execution priority has no effect on arbitration for those subVIs that do require it.

  • Does December 31, 1969 mean anything to you?

    this has happened 3 times (I think) to my iBook now -- I'll start it up, and it alerts me my date & time setting are set at a date before -this time said- before March 27, 2007. Then it says some programs may act erratically due to this.
    When I go into Date & Time, the date, all 3 times, has been December 31, 1969.
    (The hour is off, too, like I think this time it said something like 6:03pm when it was 8:43pm).
    As far as I can tell nothing is affected, and after resetting the date, everything works fine.
    The first time happened when I had the installed Tiger OS the iBook came with; the 2nd was soon after I upgraded to Leopard; the 3rd was maybe 30 minutes ago.
    It doesn't seem to mess anything up, but I was kinda curious if anyone else has experienced this, or may know why it happens, or if I should be concerned at all?

    Thanks.
    I also googled the date just a minute ago, and saw the stuff about the epoch date & January 1, 1970-- then the time zone changes it back to Dec 31st...
    So- if it's something like a dead battery on the logic board causing it - would that be something I could, or should get replaced?
    The times it happened were very spread out.
    I have been a little concerned about my iBook lately, thinking it's getting kinda old... and I have been somewhat rough on it over the years. Maybe it's due for a general check-up anyway.

  • In iMessage do the different colours of message mean anything?

    In iMessage do the different colours of message mean anything?

    iMessages can be sent between Apple devices like iPhone, iPod, iPad, Macs. They are free of charge if connected to Wi-Fi and use your data plan if Wi-Fi is not available.
    If the other person does not have an Apple device, those messages are sent as text, depending on your contract you might have a certain number of free messages to send or your carrier will not charge you for sending.
    If an iMessage can't be sent, your iPhone will try to send it as "normal" text message, this setting can be changed in Settings/Messages on your phone.
    Messages lets you exchange text messages with other SMS and MMS devices using your cellular connection, and with other iOS devices using iMessage.
    iMessage is an Apple service that lets you send unlimited messages over Wi-Fi (or cellular connections) to others using iOS 5 or later, or OS X Mountain Lion or later. With iMessage, you can see when other people are typing, and let them know when you’ve read their messages. iMessages are displayed on all of your iOS devices logged in to the same account, so you can start a conversation on one of your devices and continue it on another device. For security, iMessages are encrypted before they’re sent.

  • What does this Bridge message mean?

    I have a new Mac (and Photoshop Elements 11) and when I open Bridge I get this message:

    What does this Bridge message mean?

    Bridge came with an earlier version of PSE, PSE6 I think. The Organizer comes with PSE 9 and PSE11. Like some other PSE users, I much prefer Bridge to the Organizer. I had no trouble using Bridge with PSE9 and an older Mac. But with PSE11 and my new Mac, I started getting this message. I wonder if anyone knows what this message means, if it portends trouble for me, if there is anything I should do to correct it?
    I posted this question on the Elements Forum and was told that it should be addressed on the Bridge Forum.

  • SubVI with "Subroutine"-priority

    It's known that it is impossible to call a non-"Subroutine"-SubVI from a
    SubVI with "Subroutine"-priority. Actually subroutines are much faster,
    because they do not create their own thread, as SubVIs with other
    priority-levels do.
    Is it possibly to force Labview not executing an own thread for every SubVI
    that has a higher priority than "Subroutine" ?!?

    >
    Actually things are a bit different than what you describe. SubVIs are set
    to run in an execution system. All execution systems that are being used
    will have threads created for them before the VI even begins to run. It
    is the execution systems that define how many threads, not the VIs. Any and
    all VIs that use an execution system share the threads. By default, each
    execution system has one thread per priority per processor.
    If each subVI uses a different execution system, and provided threading is
    enabled, each subVI will be run by a different thread. This does cause
    overhead due to the thread switches that the operating system must perform.
    For that reason, it is usually best to leave the VIs in their default
    setting -- running in the same thread as the caller. This avoids the thread
    switch, and it allows for lots of freedom in later configurations. Here is
    how. If you now have several tasks that you want to separate, you make them
    subVIs and set them to different execution systems/priorities. Then any
    subVI they call will inherit the execution system, the priority, and the
    thread automatically without lots of reconfiguring or duplication of VIs.
    Lastly, the subroutine is sort of an odd feature. It really isn't a
    priority at all. A subroutine is a special way of compiling a VI that
    turns off everything possible to make the VI run as efficiently as
    currently possible. They always run in the thread of the caller, they
    do not co-routine with other VIs of the same priority.
    Subroutines turn off
    debugging -- you cannot probe, set a breakpoint, or use highlighting
    panel interaction -- the panel is not read or written to while the VI
    runs ...
    scheduling -- the VI cannot call VIs that aren't also subroutines, it cannot
    have any asynchronous functions, sleeps, etc.
    So, the best way to think of a subroutine is as a function call with as
    little overhead as possible. Not all code can be turned into a subroutine,
    and you should wait until the code is debugged before making subroutines.
    It is also a good idea to use the profiler to point out the most commonly
    called subVIs. If a subVI is only called two times, it is hardly worth
    the effort of making it a subroutine. If a subVI is called 2,000,000 times,
    then trimming off even a small amount per call can do wonders to speed up
    your app.

  • Do the changes in the spinning icon in your tab mean anything when connecting? It is grey and spinning counterclockwise then it changes to green and spins clockwise.

    When connecting to a site the tab has a spinning icon. It is grey and it spins counter-clockwise. Then it changes color to green and spins clockwise. Does this mean anything (possibly transferring data or data done). If so, what triggers the change. This is not a problem I am just interested in this behavior.

    Counter clockwise means that Firefox is trying to connect to the server and is waiting for the server to respond to that request.

  • What does blue text message mean?

    My texts I send are always green...sent one just now & it was blue.  Does that mean anything?

    If the messages (and the Send button) are blue, you're chatting over iMessage with another iOS 5 user.
    If they are green, you are using standard SMS text messaging.
    Your device will automatically detect this and send whichever way is appropriate.

    I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

    If your iPhone is locked to a wireless provider, only that wireless provider
    can unlock it. Contact the wireless provider in Hong Kong to see if they
    offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If your iPhone is locked to an AppleID that you do not know, return it for
    a refund as it is useless. Only the person whose AppleID was used for
    activation can remove the lock. There is no workaround for Activation Lock.
    If neither of the above is what you are facing, provide more detail so someone
    may offer a solution.

    I was playing with my ipad settings and noted in he advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view "website databases".  When I selected this I saw a multitude of websites.
    Can anyone tell me how these get there?  Can a website be posted even if it was never went to?  What does the space amount mean?  For example, 1.5 kb...is this quite a bit?  Would it indicate someone has gone to a site multiple times?
    I share my ipad with my teenage daughter and I'm trying to find out if she's lying to me.  Obviously she's swearing that she has "no idea" how these got there and I'm trying to keep her safe (she's only 14).
    Thanks everyone.
    Concerned Mom

    Think of your PC and the 'temporary internet folder' where it keeps cached copies of web pages or elements off a web page for 'quicker display the next time you visit'. That's pretty much what that folder is. 1.5K is tiny. Probably just a basic page with some text on it. (you might be confusing 1.5K with 1.5 megabyte....megabyte is large...it's roughly 1000 kilobytes, so the 1.5K is a tiny file)
    As far as I know, the only way info gets into that folder is if the browser has been to that site.
    if you have a concern there are browsers out there, McGruff is one i've seen recommended, that allow some degree of parental control and supervision. That or you could passcode lock the iPad or enable the restrictions to turn off some parts of the device to have some control.
