20090051507 | METHOD, SYSTEM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR TONAL AUDIO-BASED MONITORING OF NETWORK ALARMS - A method, system and program product for audio tonal monitoring of an alarm generated by a device in a network. The method includes mapping a severity level for an alert to be generated for a device in a network to at least one audio tone having a plurality of audible characteristics, generating an alert for the device when an error associated with the device is learned and sending to a monitoring system the alert generated, the alert containing data or information. The method further includes decrypting the alert received and formatting the alert received to add additional information and forwarding the formatted alert to an alert-to-audio cue manager. Further, the method includes mapping the alert forwarded to the audio tone having the plurality of audible characteristics, and playing the audio tone, such that the audio tone played audibly alerts a client of the alert generated by the device. | 02-26-2009 |
20090058647 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RFID DYNAMIC CONTENT PRESENTATION - A system and method for providing RFID dynamic content presentation using wireless devices and RFID technologies. The method comprises providing a wireless capable device which is configured to receive RFID information and store the RFID information in storage for later retrieval. The system is an infrastructure which comprises at least one RFID tag which stores RFID information; and a wireless capable device which is configured to receive the RFID information and store the RFID information in storage for later retrieval. | 03-05-2009 |
20090063693 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACTIVE TRANSCODING OF CONTENT IN A DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM - A system and method for streaming media and, more particularly, to a system and method for active transcoding of content in a distributed system. The method includes receiving a file having predetermined parameters and sizing the file up to an optimal packet size according to a logarithmic scheme. The optimal packet size is a largest packet size. In further aspects, the method also includes providing a computer infrastructure operable to perform the steps herein. The system includes a media service, rules engine, log based job creator and a stream constructor. A computer infrastructure having computer readable medium to perform the processes described herein is also provided. | 03-05-2009 |
20090202115 | MINUTIAE MASK - A system and method of authenticating fingerprints. A method of authenticating a fingerprint includes comparing a geometric shape of a scanned fingerprint to a corresponding geometric shape of a stored fingerprint. The geometric shape and the corresponding geometric shape are defined by vertices. The vertices are defined by minutiae points, while the vertices are spaced apart from the minutiae points. | 08-13-2009 |
20090276388 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF LOAD BALANCING USING FUZZY LOGIC - A system and method of load balancing using fuzzy logic and, more particularly, to a system and method of load balancing tasks over a grid environment including, for example, CPU utilization, traffic over a network and other functions. The method comprises defining cause and effect relations associated with input variables and output variables. A current utilization is assessed. The method further includes determining which cause and effect relations are associated with the current utilization and calculating a weighted balancing factor for the cause and effect relations having membership with the utilization. A load is balanced using the weighted balancing factor. | 11-05-2009 |
20110023133 | GRID LICENSING SERVER AND FAULT TOLERANT GRID SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - A system and method for managing licensed and non-licensed resources in a grid network is provided. A license server receives and processes requests for a license and determines whether a license is available and, if necessary, causes a new configuration to be created on a server for satisfying the request. A new grid node may also be created and configured to be added to the grid for creating additional capacity for grid processing. The configuration may be performed at a time prior to an actual need by the grid, perhaps due to a faulted node, and quickly brought on-line with a simple configuration update. The new grid node may also have a virtual IP address reassigned to quickly redirect processing from the faulted node to the newly configured node. Also, an external resource dispatcher may add new resources such as storage or processing capacity to the grid and may coordinate the new resources with the license server. | 01-27-2011 |
