20140295903 | PEER-TO-PEER EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION USING PUBLIC BROADCASTING - A method for emergency communication includes encoding a message for visual display including a message to field and a message from field. The visual display is revealed to a reading device in communication with a broadcast center, which stores the visual display. The messages are decoded and sorted from visual displays at the broadcast center. On an index channel, a time and channel number for when a message body of the message will be broadcast on a message channel is broadcasted. The message body is broadcasted on the message channel. | 10-02-2014 |
20150040108 | PARALLEL PROGRAM ANALYSIS AND BRANCH PREDICTION - Systems and methods for predicting execution paths of at least one target program of a plurality of programs that are run in parallel are described. In one method, execution flows of programs are generated by conducting a static analysis. In addition, the programs are executed to obtain debug logs from the programs. Further, communication messages transmitted between the execution flows are identified from the debug logs. A deduction that at least one conditional branch was taken in at least one given execution flow of the first execution flows by the target program is made based on the communication messages that are identified in the debug logs. Based on the deduction, at least one conditional branch that was not taken is removed from the given execution flow. In addition, modified execution flows that were modified in accordance with the removal are output to indicate predicted execution paths of the target program. | 02-05-2015 |
