Nuclear reactor support and seismic restraint with core retention cooling features

A nuclear island includes a nuclear reactor, a lateral seismic restraint, and a reactor core retention cooling system. The lateral seismic restraint includes a vertically oriented pin attached to one of the bottom of the lower vessel head and the floor underneath the nuclear reactor, and a mating pin socket is attached to the other of the bottom of the lower vessel head and the floor. The reactor core retention cooling system includes one or more baffles, optionally thermally insulating material, disposed alongside the exterior surface of a lower portion of the reactor pressure vessel including at least the lower vessel head. A plenum is defined between the one or more baffles and the exterior surface of a lower portion of the reactor pressure vessel. The one or more baffles may define a lower plenum inlet surrounding the lateral seismic restraint.

Tracking transactions using extended memory features

An approach is disclosed that tracks memory transactions by a node. The approach establishes a transaction processing state corresponding to common virtual addresses accessed by a processing threads. Transactions are executed by the threads. A selected transaction is allowed to complete. In response to detecting a conflict in the transaction processing state, completion of a non-selected transaction is inhibited.
