| 20100008227 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OVERLOAD CONTROL IN A NEXT GENERATION NETWORK - A Call Server in a network is able to monitor an offered rate of incoming calls per Access Gateway (AGW). A calculated GlobalLeakRate can be distributed between the AGWs in proportion to the traffic rate they offer. A leak rate calculation method is used to calculate the GlobalLeakRate control parameter of the ETSI NR restrictor at an overloaded Control Server The leak rate calculation is based on the POTS call rejection rate. In one particular embodiment of the present invention, the calculation is based on bringing the call reject rate close to a configurable low target reject level. An MGC is able to identify the end of an overload event with a greater degree of confidence and an AGW is able respond appropriately if the AGW is prematurely instructed to stop the control. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20100138814 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING LONG NAMES IN AN APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE - Software managing long names in an application programming interface receives a request to perform a requested operation on one or more fields, the application comprising a first operation operable to perform the requested operation on at least one field type. The software determines whether the field type of any of the fields is incompatible with the first operation. If the field types of the one or more fields are compatible with the first operation, then the software performs the requested operation on the one or more fields using the first operation. If the software determines that the field type of at least one of the fields is incompatible with the first operation, then it converts the request into a call for a second operation operable to perform the requested operation on the one or more fields and performs the requested operation using the second operation. | 06-03-2010 |

| 20090204782 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SAFELY AUTOMATING THE GENERATION OF MULTIPLE DATA DEFINITION LANGUAGE STATEMENTS - A system and method includes steps or acts of: organizing table partitions in logical order; presenting the partition table numbers and their current ending values in logical order to a user; receiving an alter command from the user, the alter command specifying at least one logical partition number and its corresponding ending value; internally matching the specified logical partition number to its corresponding physical partition number; altering the physical partitioning of the table by manipulating one or more current ending values of partitions by altering the current ending value of the physical partition to which the specified logical partition is associated, such that new ending values are generated; and automatically generating at least one data definition language statement corresponding to the alter command, using the new ending value. | 08-13-2009 |

| 20100091788 | CONFIGURATION FOR MESSAGING MULTIPLEXED CHANNEL INSTANCES WITH VARYING CONNECTION SPEEDS - A method, system and article of manufacture are disclosed for selecting a channel instance for connecting a client with a server in a multi-channel instance computer system. In this computer system, when a new channel instance is used for connecting the client with one of the servers, defined channel information is established for the channel instance. The method of this invention comprises the steps of, when a new connection request is made, locking existing channel information; and after said locking, scanning through a list of channel connections for one of the channel instances that is a candidate for said connection request. In response to finding a candidate channel instance, which is in the process of connecting, the connection request is queued against the candidate channel instance. When the candidate channel instance does not complete connecting within a defined or determined time period, a new channel instance is used for the connection request. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20100095006 | EFFICIENT SELECTION OF A MESSAGING MULTIPLEXED CHANNEL INSTANCE - A method, system and article of manufacture are disclosed for selecting a channel instance for connecting a client application with a server application in a multi-channel computer system. In this computer system, when a new channel instance is used to connect one of the client applications with one of the server applications, defined channel instance information is established for the channel instance. The method of this invention comprises the steps of when a new application connection request is made, locking existing channel instance information; and after said locking, scanning through a list of channel instance connections for one of the channel instances that is a candidate channel instance for that new application connection request. The method comprises the further steps of, in response to finding a candidate channel instance, determining whether the candidate channel instance is suitable for the new application connection request. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20090077261 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FILE TRANSFER OVER A MESSAGING INFRASTRUCTURE - A method and system for file transfer over a messaging infrastructure are provided. The method includes dividing a file into multiple portions. The method includes generating for a current portion of a file, except for the first portion in a file, a first hash summarizing the state of the file up to, but not including, the current portion and a second hash summarizing the state of the file up to and including the current portion. The method includes sending the first and second hashes with the file portion. The second hash may be used at a target for comparing to a first hash of a subsequent file portion, for example, by recreating the second hash from the current state of the received file on the target. | 03-19-2009 |

| 20120027278 | METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR MAPPING REGIONS IN A MODEL OF AN OBJECT COMPRISING AN ANATOMICAL STRUCTURE FROM ONE IMAGE DATA SET TO IMAGES USED IN A DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION - Methods, systems, and computer readable media for mapping a model of an object comprising an anatomical structure in a planning image and an intervention target region within it to intervention-guiding image data are disclosed. According to one method, an initial medial representation object model (m-rep) of an object comprising an anatomical structure is created based on image data of at least a first instance of the object. A patient-specific m-rep is created by deforming the initial m-rep based on planning image data of at least a second instance of the object, wherein the at least second instance of the object is associated with the patient. An intervention target region within the m-rep is identified in an image registered with the planning image. The patient-specific m-rep is correlated to the intervention-guiding image data of the at least second instance of the object, deformed from the planning image. The intervention target region is transferred to the intervention-guiding image according to the transformation between the m-rep in the planning image and the m-rep in the intervention-guiding image. | 02-02-2012 |
