| 20090172692 | Enterprise Resource Planning with Asynchronous Notifications of Background Processing Events - Methods, systems, and computer program products for operating an enterprise resource planning system. The method includes running a placeholder job in said enterprise resource planning system in response to a request from at least one client application for notification of at least one background processing event, wherein the placeholder job is executed in response to the at least one background processing event. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090254266 | APPARATUS OF CALCULATING A NAVIGATION ROUTE BASED ON ESTIMATED ENERGY CONSUMPTION - A system of calculating a navigation route based on an estimated energy consumption value that assigns a distance weight coefficient for each of the plurality of potential routes that corresponds to an estimated distance energy consumption value. The system also determines a cumulative interference weight coefficient for each of the plurality of potential routes corresponding to an estimated interference energy consumption value based on traversing at least one interference event in the potential route. Each cumulative interference weight coefficient may include a fixed event interference weight coefficient, a probable event interference weight coefficient, and a scheduled event interference weight coefficient. The system then determines total route energy consumption weight coefficients for each of the plurality of potential routes by adding the distance and cumulative interference weight coefficients, and selects a route from the plurality of potential routes based on a lowest total route energy consumption weight coefficient. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090300633 | Method and System for Scheduling and Controlling Backups in a Computer System - A method, system, and article to manage a backup procedure of one or more backup tasks in a computing system. A backup window within which the backup tasks are to be executed is defined, and the backup tasks within the backup window are scheduled. The process of the backup procedure is controlled during execution. The process of controlling the backup procedure includes calculating the prospective duration of all actually running and all future backup tasks, and cancelling low priority backup tasks in case a higher priority backup task is projected to continue beyond an end time (T | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100010799 | DEVICE SIMULATION METHOD AND SYSTEM - A simulation method and system. The method includes receiving by a simulation engine in a device driver, input simulation parameters data associated with a simulation process. The simulation engine calculates a simulated scale down process time period for a device associated with the device driver. The simulation engine simulates the device. The simulation engine calculates an overall runtime period for the device. The overall runtime period is calculated based on the simulated scale down process time period. The simulation engine transmits the overall runtime period to a simulator software application for generating an operating schedule for operating the device. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100070959 | DYNAMIC IMPROVED EXECUTABLES - A method of optimizing a performance of an executable program where the executable program including an executable code portion and a dynamic meta-data portion, the executable code portion and the dynamic meta-data portion being hard-linked together and the dynamic meta-data portion being configured to enhance an operation of the executable code portion. The method includes reading the meta-data. The executable code is then executed while the execution of the executable code is optimized based on the meta-data. Statistical data regarding an operation of the execution of the executable code is collected during the program's run. The dynamic meta-data is updated with the collected statistical data at an ending portion of the executable code. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100161687 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING GARBAGE COLLECTION WITH ALLOCATION MODIFIERS - A system and associated method for optimizing memory allocation and garbage collection. An allocation modifier is employed to declare a data object in a source code. The allocation modifier describes an expected lifespan of the data object being declared. The interpreter allocates the data object in an area of a heap space that is associated with the expected lifespan such that a garbage collector suffers from less overhead in scanning data objects that will survive a garbage collection cycle. Also, the heap space also has less fragmentation as the data object is allocated in the area associated with the expected lifespan such that the data object does not need to be relocated. | 06-24-2010 |
