| 20090132536 | Dynamic control and regulation of critical database resources using a virtual memory table interface - A computer-implemented apparatus, method, and article of manufacture provide the ability to manage a plurality of database systems. A domain contains the database systems, and a database in one of the systems has segmented global memory partitions. A virtual monitor partition provides logon access to the segmented global memory partitions in a form of a virtual database. Open application programming interfaces (API) enable logon access to the virtual monitor partition to access data in the virtual database. A multi-system regulator manages the domain and utilizes the open APIs to access data in the virtual data base. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090132611 | Closed-loop system management method and process capable of managing workloads in a multi-system database environment - A computer-implemented apparatus, method, and article of manufacture provide the ability to manage a plurality of database systems. A domain contains a plurality of database systems. A system event monitor, on each of the database systems, monitors the database systems' system conditions and operating environment events within the domain. A multi-system regulator manages the domain, communicates with the system event monitor, and creates a dynamic event on one of the database systems based on the system conditions and operating environment events. The dynamic event causes an adjustment to a state of the database system. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20100169377 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR FACILITATING APPLICATION VIRTUAL DATABASE USERS - A system, method, and computer-readable medium that provide virtual user access to a database system are provided. Middle-tier application end users issue requests to a middle-tier application that submits the requests to a database system on behalf of the middle-tier end users. The middle-tier application may authenticate end users and maintain a session pool for maintaining sessions with the database system for virtual users comprising valid middle-tier application end users. The middle-tier application is able to assert the identity of virtual users corresponding to the end users for use in access rights checking and auditing of queries without establishing a new logon session for the user. To facilitate middle-tier application assertion of virtual user identities, the middle-tier application is registered as a valid database user with the database system. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20090322801 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING LIGHT RADIATION - A display system providing an enhanced viewing experience is provided. The system enables having backlighting colors fast adapted to the screen content while at the same time also having a relaxed viewing experience because the luminance slowly changes over time. A method and a computer-readable medium are also provided. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100026734 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING LIGHT RADIATION - A system suitable for backlighting is provided. The system comprises a monitor unit configured to monitor an information signal, and to generate a first signal based at least partly on the information comprised in the information signal, a control unit configured to control the reaction time of at least one illumination area capable of emitting properties of light and comprised in the system, based on the first signal, wherein the first signal may comprise scene change information. The system provides for a more peaceful backlighting effect while still being able to stress actions, such as scene changes, happening in the presented information signal. A method and computer-readable medium are also provided. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100213877 | AMBIENCE LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR A DISPLAY DEVICE AND A METHOD OF OPERATING SUCH AMBIENCE LIGHTING SYSTEM - This invention relates to an ambience lighting system for use in conjunction with a display device including an image display region. A central control receives an incoming audio video stream (AVS) and to determines color information at the periphery of the image to be displayed. Light sources are disposed in a pre-fixed arrangement in relation to the periphery of the image display region, and local control units are coupled to open or more light sources selected from the multiple light sources for locally operating the at least one coupled light source. The central control unit is adapted to transmit the determined color information as a stream to each respective local control unit, which use a portion of the received color information to operate the at least one coupled light source, the portion being determined based on the position of the at least one coupled light source within the pre-fixed arrangement. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20110075036 | AMBIENT ILLUMINATION SYSTEM, DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF GENERATING AN ILLUMINATION VARIATION AND METHOD OF PROVIDING A DATA SERVICE - The invention relates to an Ambient illumination system ( | 03-31-2011 |
