20110265101 | NET-TIMER DAEMON - User space applications can utilize custom network protocol timers. A registration request is received from an application to register a custom timer. Responsive to receiving the registration request, a handle is created. The handle is a pointer to be used by the application to reference the custom timer. The handle is forwarded to the application. When a custom timer is required, a request to use a custom timer is received from an application. The kernel is then requested to start the custom timer. A determination is then made as to whether a receipt confirmation is received from the kernel before expiration of the custom timer. | 10-27-2011 |
20110276697 | Remote Session Management - Provided is reporting session information for a session upstream from a server. A data processing system receives a session handshake from a first client for a session between the server and the first client. The system receives a session-descriptor for a session between a second client and the first client before handling a nested session. The system determines whether a user has made an upstream session request. The system obtains session data from an upstream data structure, responsive to a determination that the user has made an upstream session request. The system renders the session data based on the upstream session request. | 11-10-2011 |
20120005671 | Hypervisor-Based Data Transfer - In a computer system having memory, at least one processor and a physical input-output adapter, the at least one processor generates logical partitions, including local logical partitions and an input-output logical partition. The logical partitions have respective local virtual adapters. The input-output logical partition has a shared virtual adapter configured to communicate with the physical input-output adapter, such that a plurality of the local logical partitions share the physical input-output adapter via the shared virtual adapter. The at least one processor provides communication for ones of the local virtual adapters of the local logical partitions directly with the physical input-output adapter by a hypervisor. | 01-05-2012 |
20120005683 | Data Processing Workload Control - Data processing workload control in a data center is provided, where the data center includes computers whose operations consume power and a workload controller composed of automated computing machinery that controls the overall data processing workload in the data center. The data processing workload is composed of a plurality of specific data processing jobs, including scheduling, by the workload controller in dependence upon power performance information, the data processing jobs for execution upon the computers in the data center, the power performance information including power consumption at a plurality of power-conserving states for each computer in the data center that executes data processing jobs and dispatching by the workload controller the data processing jobs as scheduled for execution on computers in the data center. | 01-05-2012 |
20120110665 | Intrusion Detection Within a Distributed Processing System - A computer implemented method monitors activity within a device driver layer of a computer. An arrival rate is identified within a device driver for the node. The arrival rate is a rate at which packets arrive at a network adapter of the node from all other nodes within a network. If the arrival rate exceeds at least one threshold, the node undergoes a state change. The at least one threshold delineates between a plurality of states for the node. | 05-03-2012 |
20120117572 | SELF-ADJUSTING APPLICATION HEARTBEAT MANAGEMENT - A method, system, and computer program product for a self-adjusting application heartbeat management process are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A first application receives from a second application, a response message in response to a heartbeat message. Information is identified in the response message usable for computing a delay in a future response message for a future heartbeat message, such that the information communicates to the first application a system condition existing in the second data processing system where the second application is executing. A response time is adjusted using the information to form a modified response time. The future response message is received after the response time. | 05-10-2012 |
20120143929 | VIRTUALIZED OPERATING SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT FILE-SYSTEM - A method, system, and computer program product for an improved virtualized operating system environment file-system are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A computer receives a write request for a part in the virtualized operating system environment file-system. The computer determines whether the part in the virtualized operating system environment file-system is a link to a second part in a host file-system. The computer, responsive to the part in the virtualized operating system environment file-system being the link, replaces the link with content of the second part the content replacing the link forming a writable copy of the part. | 06-07-2012 |
20130151721 | Remote Session Management - Provided is reporting session information for a session upstream from a server. A data processing system receives a session handshake from a first client for a session between the server and the first client. The system receives a session-descriptor for a session between a second client and the first client before handling a nested session. The system determines whether a user has made an upstream session request. The system obtains session data from an upstream data structure, responsive to a determination that the user has made an upstream session request. The system renders the session data based on the upstream session request. | 06-13-2013 |
