20100083629 | FLEXIBLE CUTTERBAR SUPPORT APPARATUS WITH INTEGRAL ADJUSTABLE TORSIONAL PRELOAD MECHANISM AND VIBRATION DAMPER - A flexible cutterbar support apparatus with integral adjustable torsional preload mechanism for connecting a cutterbar support arm to a header frame for upward and downward movement. The mechanism includes a first element connected to the support arm and extending about a second element configured for connection to the frame, and at least one resilient biasing element disposed between the first element and the second element and biasable by generation of a torsional loading condition between the first and second elements for applying a preload force therebetween. A preload adjusting mechanism in connection with at least one of the first element and the second element is operable for selectably adjusting the biasing of the at least one resilient biasing element in a manner for adjusting the preload force. The preload mechanism is also operable for damping vibrations emanating from the cutterbar, and can be used in cooperation with apparatus for damping the up and down movements thereof. | 04-08-2010 |

20090125920 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FLEXIBLE AND DEFERRED SERVICE CONFIGURATION - A method, system and computer program product for flexible service configuration. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a procedure request to perform a procedure at a target server, detecting by the target server at least one deficient parameter in the procedure request, suspending processing of the procedure request, sending a request by the target server for additional information from a middleware system to correct the at least one deficient parameter in the procedure request, and resuming the procedure request upon receiving the additional information. | 05-14-2009 |
20090313319 | System and Method for Dynamic Partitioning of Applications in Client-Server Environments - A method for dynamically deploying an application in a client-server environment includes evaluating at least one constraint of at least one of the application or the client-server environment and partitioning the placement and execution of components of the application in the client-server environment dynamically at runtime according to the at least one constraint. | 12-17-2009 |
20140195478 | DETECTING DATA OMISSIONS FOR AN INTERMITTENTLY-CONNECTED APPLICATION - A system, method and computer program product for detecting data omissions between intermittently-connected devices. An example system includes a client device configured to execute client queries on a client data set, and generate client result sets. The client queries and client result sets are stored on a query queue as queued queries and queued result sets. The system includes a server device with a data omission detector and server database. The data omission detector receives the queued queries and queued result sets after detecting a network connection, executes server queries on the server database and generates server result sets. The server queries are based on the queued queries. The data omission detector compares the server result sets with queued result sets to determine if there are data omissions. Data omissions include data absent in the queued result set that is present in a server result set. | 07-10-2014 |

20080240150 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR NETWORK DISTRIBUTION AND PROVISIONING OF APPLICATIONS ACROSS MULTIPLE DOMAINS - Techniques are disclosed for network distribution and provisioning of applications, such as transactional applications and parallel applications, across multiple administrative domains that ensure compliance with service level agreements. For example, a method of provisioning one or more resources in a distributed computing network to ensure compliance with a service level agreement associated with a computer application includes the following steps. Network performance is monitored between a local domain and one or more cooperating domains connected to the local domain by network paths. A present or predicted violation of the service level agreement is identified based on at least a portion of results of the monitoring step. One or more cooperating domains are selected that can effect compliance with the service level agreement by instantiating one or more network resources within at least one of the selected cooperating domains in response to a request from the local domain. Reconfiguration of the local domain is effectuated to allow the computer application to make use of the one or more newly instantiated network resources within the selected cooperating domain. | 10-02-2008 |
20090254584 | Methods and Apparatus for Constructing Declarative Componentized Applications - Techniques for constructing a software application are provided. A data model of the application is represented as a relational model. Control logic of the application is defined to specify each of a plurality of operations of the application as a mapping from a current state of the application data model and one or more current application inputs to a new state of the application data model and one or more application outputs, described by one or more relational algebra operations selected from the group consisting of a relation-complement operation, a disjunction operation and a conjunction operation. | 10-08-2009 |

20120317339 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CACHING DATA IN MEMORY AND ON DISK - A cache is configured as a hybrid disk-overflow system in which data sets generated by applications running in a distributed computing system are stored in a fast access memory portion of cache, e.g., in random access memory and are moved to a slower access memory portion of cache, e.g., persistent durable memory such as a solid state disk. Each data set includes application-defined key data and bulk data. The bulk data are moved to slab-allocated slower access memory while the key data are maintained in fast access memory. A pointer to the location within the slower access memory containing the bulk data is stored in the fast access memory in association with the key data. Applications call data sets within the cache using the key data, and the pointers facilitate access, management and manipulation of the associated bulk data. Access, management and manipulation occur asynchronously with the application calls. | 12-13-2012 |
