20110185365 | DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM, METHOD FOR PROCESSING DATA AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - A computer-implemented data processing system, computer-implemented method and computer program product for processing data. The system includes: a scheduler; a processor system; and at least one producer for executing a task. The scheduler is operable to allocate to the producer with respect to a scheme, a processing time of a processing resource of the processor system. The producer is operable to execute the task using said processor system during the allocated processing time. | 07-28-2011 |
20110264776 | DEPLOYING AN OPERATING SYSTEM - A method for deploying an operating system onto a client system includes, with the client system, receiving a bootloader image from an external device in response to a request for the bootloader image and installing the bootloader. The installed bootloader is configured to provide a streaming function from the client system to both a client repository of the client system and a remote data repository and selectively redirect requests for a block of data to one of: the client repository and the remote data repository. The method further includes, with the client system, during operation of a function of the operating system, making a request for a data block of the operating system, the data block including the function, and receiving the data block from one of: the client repository and the remote repository based on availability information. | 10-27-2011 |
20120084272 | FILE SYSTEM SUPPORT FOR INERT FILES - A method for storing a file on a data storage device. The method includes: storing the file in one of a first and a second file system; calculating a hash value; and storing the hash value on a storage device if it is stored in the second file system. A data processing system includes a first file system and a second file system wherein the data processing system calculates and stores a hash value when the file is stored in the second file system. A method for reading a file from a file system including: receiving a read command; reading a first hash value from a storage device; reading the file from the storage device; calculating a second hash value; returning the file when the first hash value equals the second hash value and returning an error when it does not equal the second hash value. | 04-05-2012 |
20120151201 | MANAGEMENT OF MULTIPLE SOFTWARE IMAGES WITH RELOCATION OF BOOT BLOCKS - A method, system and computer program product for managing multiple software images in a data processing entity. At least part of the memory blocks of each of the software images is stored into a corresponding image portion of a mass memory. A current software image stored in a current image is selected. The memory blocks stored in boot locations of the current software image are relocated to a relocation portion of the mass memory. The boot blocks of the current software image are copied into the corresponding boot location. The data processing entity is booted from the boot blocks of the current software image in the corresponding boot locations and each request to access a selected memory block of the current software image by the access function is served. | 06-14-2012 |
20130031199 | TRANSMITTING DATA INCLUDING PIECES OF DATA - A method and system for transmitting data including pieces of data. The method includes the steps of: placing a piece of data on at least one cache memory; and sending a signal indicating a presence of the piece of data on the cache memory to at least one client, where at least one of the steps is carried out by a computer device. | 01-31-2013 |
20130060882 | TRANSMITTING DATA INCLUDING PIECES OF DATA - A method and system for transmitting data including pieces of data. The method includes the steps of: placing a piece of data on at least one cache memory; and sending a signal indicating a presence of the piece of data on the cache memory to at least one client, where at least one of the steps is carried out by a computer device. | 03-07-2013 |
