| 20120101984 | METHOD FOR PERFORMANCE TUNING A DATABASE - A method for performance tuning a database is described. The method includes setting a database-allowed core value between 500 megabytes and half size of memory for the database. Further, the method declares small and heavily accessed structures as memory resident structures, and sets a memory resident limit value between 0 and the database-allowed core value for the database. In addition, the method analyzes the database to determine whether read-ahead should be enabled for the data structures. The method also analyzes the database to apply a reblocking factor between 1 and 60. The method associates system buffers ranging from 1000 to 20000 with the data structures, and stores the system buffers in memory. Moreover, the method consolidates the data structures having unused space. | 04-26-2012 |
| 20120011408 | GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE SYSTEM FOR BACKGROUND INTELLIGENT TRANSFER SERVICE - A graphical user interface system for BITS. The system includes a set of input modules, a set of output modules, and notification modules. The set of input modules allow selection of files for transfer to the BITS Server Virtual Directory and activate BITS functions. The BITS functions may include starting file transfer, cancelling file transfer, retrying file transfer, or removing the selected files. The set of output modules show dynamic status and real-time progress of the transfer automatically upon activation of the transfer of the selected files. The set of output modules also display an error message upon detecting an error in the transfer. Further, the notification modules provide a real-time notification on completion of the transfer. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20110320587 | REAL-TIME DETERMINATION OF SOFTWARE INSTALLATION STATUS - A computer-implemented method for real-time determination of software installation status is described. The determination is performed for multiple computing devices. The method includes accepting a list of computing devices connected to a network. Further, the method includes receiving an identifier for a software component and determining installation status for the software component based on the identifier. The determination being performed on each computing device in the list in real-time. Further, the method includes producing a software installation report based on the determined installation status. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20110314022 | K engine - process count after build in threads - In a KStore having a plurality of K nodes with count fields a method for updating count fields, receiving a particle to provide a received particle, updating selected node counts of the plurality of nodes counts in response to the received particle to provide first updated K node count fields, and saving selected K node count fields for later updating to provide second updated count fields are recited. The K nodes include elemental root nodes and the second updated K node count fields include elemental root nodes of the plurality of elemental root nodes. The second updated K node count fields include only elemental root nodes of the plurality of elemental root nodes. The first updated K node count fields include no elemental root nodes. The second updated K node count fields include K nodes pointed to by the Result pointers of the first updated K node count fields. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110296038 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTINUATION OF A WEB SESSION - A computer-implemented method, executed on a web server, for facilitating continuation of a web session after the web session has been terminated. The method includes initiating a web session having an associated web page with a URL upon receiving a request from a web browser. During the web session, the method includes generating session information, including a transaction identifier and state information. The generated session information is then transmitted to a web browser followed by termination of the web session. After the termination, the web session is resumed by the web server by accepting the session information from the web browser, authenticating the transaction identifier, and validating the client data corresponding to the authenticated transaction identifier. After validation, the web session may be continued at the web page. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110295941 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTINUATION OF A WEB SESSION - A computer-implemented method, executed on a web browser, for facilitating continuation of a web session after the web session has been terminated. The method initiates a web session with a URL from the web browser having an associated web page. The method then communicates client data to a web server and receives session information related to the web session from the web server. Resuming the web session after termination includes transmitting the session information to the web server and receiving authentication of the transaction identifier of the session information from the web server. Further, the method transmits the client data corresponding to the authenticated transaction identifier to the web server for validation. Thus, the web session may be continued at the web page. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110239019 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING POWER CONSUMPTION OF A COMPUTING DEVICE - A power-state management module in any operating environment manages power consumption of a computing device in a power-on mode. The disclosed system and method based on predetermined criteria, classify computing device activity and switch the computing device from the power-on mode to either a hibernate mode or a shut down mode. The predetermined criteria include inactive computing device time compared to a predetermined time period and operational processes present in an exemption list of processes. | 09-29-2011 |
