20090067327Method for managing network resources and network management device - The invention relates to a method for managing network resources in a network with a network management device (M), a network component (A), and a further network component (B), and a network management device (M), the method comprising the following steps: transmitting a request for an advance reservation of a network resource by the network component (A) to the network management device (M), wherein the request includes information regarding a reservation start time and a reservation end time; transmitting a request for an ad-hoc reservation of a further network resource by the further network component (B) to the network management device (M); allocating the further network resource to the further network component (B) by the network management device (M); and allocating the network resource to the network component (A) by the network management device (M) at the reservation start time, wherein the network resource comprises a part or all of the further network resource.03-12-2009
20110298976METHOD FOR CONVERTING BETWEEN INTERLACED VIDEO AND PROGRESSIVE VIDEO DURING TRANSMISSION VIA A NETWORK - A method for converting video data comprises providing video data in a first format, selecting consecutive pixel data corresponding to a line or fraction of a line of an image, and adapting a maximum length of a data packet to accommodate the selected pixel data. The payload section of a data packet exclusively carries pixel data originating from one single line of the source image. The method further comprises calculating a start address for a memory in a receiver beginning at which address the pixel data is to be written. The start address is added to a header section of the data packet in the transmitter. The data packet is transmitted via a network. In the receiver the pixel data is written to the memory beginning at the start address indicated in the header section. Video data is read from the target memory in accordance with a second format.12-08-2011
20120020360METHOD OF MANAGING A PACKET ADMINISTRATION MAP - A method of managing a packet administration map for data packets to be received via a network. A receiver in the network monitors sequence numbers and stores missing sequence numbers within an internal data structure, called a packet administration map. A reversed keying is used which means that the upper limit of the range of contiguous missing data packets is used as the key entry in the administration map.01-26-2012

20100114931FACET, LOGIC AND TEXTUAL-BASED QUERY COMPOSER - Described is a technology for composing queries by user interaction with objects and facets. A facet-based user interface allows users to select facets for use as filtering criteria, and a logic-based user interface allows users to logically combine object data. Query logic that processes the filtering criteria and/or logically combines the object data into a query. The facet-based user interface and logic-based user interface may be accessed via a unified user interface. The unified user interface may also provide a text editor for composing a text-based query.05-06-2010
20100287220Dynamically Encoding Types and Inhabitants in a Relational Database - Described is a technology, such as for representing scientific data and information, in which a database table contains rows of type data representing types, and term data representing terms that inhabit the types. Types include composite types (e.g., that represent entities), and instances of relation types that express relationships between types, between a type and a term, or between terms. Types and/or terms may have multiple relationships with one another, and a relationship may span database tables. A new relationship may be established by adding a new row to the database table to represent a new relation term, along with one or more similar rows to represent the relation role terms associated with that relation term; relationships may be removed by removing rows. As a result, the database table may change its state rapidly, without needing to change the database schema.11-11-2010
20110202560EXPRESSING AND EXECUTING SEMANTIC QUERIES WITHIN A RELATIONAL DATABASE - Semantic queries are expressed and executed within a relational database. This can be done by defining semantic rules applied to execute the semantic queries using table valued functions and common table expressions, and then simply calling the defined table valued functions to execute the queries.08-18-2011
20110320431STRONG TYPING FOR QUERYING INFORMATION GRAPHS - Described herein is using type information with a graph of nodes and predicates, in which the type information may be used to determine validity of (type check) a query to be executed against the graph. In one aspect, each node has a type, and each predicate indicates a valid relationship between two types of nodes. A type checking mechanism uses the type information to determine whether a query is valid, which may be the entire query prior to query processing/compilation time, or as the query is being composed by a user. One or more valid predicates for a given node may be discovered based upon the node type, such as discovered to assist the user during query composition. Also described is using the type information to optimize the query.12-29-2011

20090193107Synchronizing for Directory Changes Performed While Offline - Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to synchronizing for directory actions performed while offline. In aspects, file system objects that reside on a remote data store are made available for offline use. While offline, a client receives an indication that a directory is to be deleted or renamed. In response, the client modifies its local copy of the directory and its descendants if any and stores one or more tombstones that include information that the client can use when synchronizing the changes made to the directory when the client is reconnected to the remote data store. When the client reconnects to the remote data store, the client synchronizes changes made while offline with the remote data store. Resolution conflict mechanisms may be used during this synchronization.07-30-2009
