20110016160UNIFIED WINDOW SUPPORT FOR EVENT STREAM DATA MANAGEMENT - Data stream query mediation may utilize a query handler configured to receive a query from a stream application to be applied against a stream of data including multiple tuples representing events. A stream window manager may be configured to express the query in a specification which defines a window including a subset of the tuples, the specification defining content of the window as a range of the tuples having a range attribute over which the content is specified, defining when to update the window using a synchronization attribute specifying a movement of the window over time with respect to the content, and defining an evaluation of the content of the window using an evaluation attribute specifying when to perform the evaluation. A query translator may be configured to translate the query including mapping the range attribute, the synchronization attribute, and the evaluation attribute to a stream processing language of a data stream management system (DSMS), to thereby obtain a translated query. A DSMS mediator may be configured to provide the translated query to the DSMS for processing therewith.01-20-2011

A run-time pattern scheduler may be configured to determine a ranked set of the run-time patterns based on a priority metric which characterizes, for each run-time pattern, an advancement of each run-time pattern from a current state thereof when matched against the current event set. A pattern match evaluator may be configured to evaluate each run-time pattern of the ranked set, in turn, against the current event set.06-09-2011

20100268926Method and Apparatus for Preventing BIOS from Failing to Enter Boot Program - A method and an apparatus for preventing a basic input/output system (BIOS) from failing to enter a boot program are adapted to solve the problem that when a central processing unit (CPU) executes a first instruction after a computer is powered on, a start address to be executed is erroneously set as another corresponding start address, resulting in that a BIOS cannot enter a boot program. In the method of the present invention, a jump instruction is written to the corresponding start address, so as to enable an execution instruction to jump to a boot block of the BIOS when the start address is erroneously set in the computer, thus performing a normal boot operation. Moreover, in the present invention, a step for checking a register that may cause the start address to be inverted to the corresponding start address is further added to the BIOS program, such that in each boot process, the value of the register can be pre-checked and overwritten when an error occurs, so as to avoid the problem of false pointing next time the computer is booted.10-21-2010

20090242773Positioning of photodetection events - Improved position estimation for a square photodetector having terminals at its corners is provided by first estimating an event position in a coordinate system aligned with the diagonals of the square, and then performing a coordinate rotation to provide an estimated position in a coordinate system aligned with the sides of the square. These two steps can also be mathematically combined. It is believed that the improved accuracy of this position determination approach is a result of a greater degree of linearity in charge division between terminals along diagonal axes than along orthogonal axes of a square detector. Flood images provided by this method have been compared to flood images provided by the conventional Anger method, and substantially less image distortion is observed with the present method than with the Anger method. This reduced distortion can enable automatic crystal segmentation from raw flood image data, which is particularly beneficial in connection with simplifying positron emission tomography (PET) system calibration.10-01-2009

20090049189Methods and apparatus for supporting transmission of streaming data - A gateway application in a content engine multiplexes requests for real-time content to servers that, in turn, service the requests by streaming appropriate real-time content to requesting users. A software communication port of the content engine may be reserved to receive request messages from multiple client computers, at least two of which request streaming of real-time content according to different selected formats. After identifying client properties (e.g., a format for which to receive streaming real-time content) associated with the requests for real-time content, the gateway application identifies corresponding servers of the content engine to serve the real-time content according to the different selected formats. The gateway application forwards the requests for streaming of real-time content associated with the request messages to the corresponding servers which, in turn, satisfy the requests by streaming the requested real-time content to the client computers.02-19-2009
