20080263296 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR STORING AN INFORMATION BLOCK - A method for storing an information block that includes determining to store a current version of an information block stored in a memory unit. The checking if a current version of the information is already stored in a storage unit. The current version of the information block is sent from the memory unit to the storage unit if the answer is negative. Generating storage unit location information indicative of a location, at the storage unit, of the current version of the information block if the answer is positive. | 10-23-2008 |
20130138889 | Cache Optimization Via Predictive Cache Size Modification - Systems and methods for cache optimization, the method comprising monitoring cache access rate for one or more cache tenants in a computing environment, wherein a first cache tenant is allocated a first cache having a first cache size which may be adjusted; determining a cache profile for at least the first cache over one or more time intervals according to data collected during the monitoring, analyzing the cache profile for the first cache to determine an expected cache usage model for the first cache; and analyzing the cache usage model and factors related to cache efficiency for the one or more cache tenants to dictate one or more constraints that define boundaries for the first cache size. | 05-30-2013 |
20130138891 | ALLOCATION ENFORCEMENT IN A MULTI-TENANT CACHE MECHANISM - Systems and methods for cache optimization are provided. The method comprises monitoring cache access rate for a plurality of cache tenants sharing same cache mechanism having an amount of data storage space, wherein a first cache tenant having a first cache size is allocated a first cache space within the data storage space, and wherein a second cache tenant having a second cache size is allocated a second cache space within the data storage space. The method further comprises determining cache profiles for at least the first cache tenant and the second cache tenant according to data collected during the monitoring; analyzing the cache profiles for the plurality of cache tenants to determine an expected cache usage model for the cache mechanism; and analyzing the cache usage model and factors related to cache efficiency or performance for the one or more cache tenants to dictate one or more occupancy constraints. | 05-30-2013 |
20130325950 | ADAPTIVE AND DYNAMIC REPLICATION MANAGEMENT IN CLOUD COMPUTING - A system for communicating information among a plurality of nodes of a network. The system comprises a plurality of disseminating modules installed in a plurality of nodes of a network which hosts a plurality of replicas of data having a plurality of objects, each the disseminating module has access to a dataset defining a plurality of write request dissemination topologies. Each disseminating module is defined to receive a write request from a client, to select dynamically one of the write request dissemination topologies according to at least one parameter of the client, and to disseminate the write request according to the selected write request dissemination topology. | 12-05-2013 |
20150095584 | UTILITY-BASED INVALIDATION PROPAGATION SCHEME SELECTION FOR DISTRIBUTED CACHE CONSISTENCY - A computerized method for dynamic consistency management of server side cache management units in a distributed cache, comprising: updating a server side cache management unit by a client; assigning each of a plurality of server side cache management units to one of a plurality of propagation topology groups according to an analysis of a plurality of cache usage measurements thereof, each of said propagation topology groups is associated with a different write request propagation scheme; and managing client update notifications of members of each of said propagation topology groups according to the respective said different write request propagation scheme which is associated therewith. | 04-02-2015 |

20100208351 | SELECTIVE AND ORIENTED ASSEMBLY OF PLATELET MATERIALS AND FUNCTIONAL ADDITIVES - A method of conforming non-ductile flakes to a surface is provided wherein a surface is coated with the non-ductile flakes. A first step of coating at least a portion of the surface with a coating of adhesive or a paint is required and subsequently before the coating cures a plurality of thin film flakes having a non-ductile insulating or semiconductor layer are sprinkled upon the adhesive or paint while it is still tacky. Typically the thin-film flakes have a thickness of between 50 nm and 2,000 nm, and have a length of between 2 microns and 200 microns. The flakes having a non-ductile layer are then burnished upon the surface so as to provide an active layer, which conforms to the surface. | 08-19-2010 |
20100239753 | PATTERNING OF A SPACER LAYER IN AN INTERFERENCE FILTER - The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a color-shifting optical device with a dielectric spacer layer such that different regions thereof have different thicknesses. The method includes: (a) coating a substrate with one of a reflector or absorber layer, (b) providing a spacer layer onto the layer coated in step (a), the spacer layer comprising a spacer material and a soluble pocket within the spacer layer, (c) modifying the spacer layer by dissolving the soluble pocket so as to remove a portion of the spacer material to vary the thickness of the spacer layer, and (d) coating the spacer layer with another of the reflector or absorber layers. | 09-23-2010 |
20150321499 | OPTICALLY VARIABLE DEVICE COMPRISING MAGNETIC FLAKES - An optically variable device may be manufactured by aligning magnetic flakes on a surface of an adhesive layer by applying the flakes onto the adhesive layer surface in presence of a magnetic field, and curing the adhesive layer having magnetic flakes adhered to the adhesive layer. When cured, the adhesive layer holds the magnetic flakes oriented, enabling subsequent encapsulation of the oriented magnetic flakes in a coating layer on the adhesive layer, without a substantial loss of orientation of the magnetic flakes. | 11-12-2015 |
