20060294526 - Method and apparatus for generating service frameworks: A method, an apparatus, and computer instructions for generating service frameworks are provided by aspects of the present invention. One aspect of the present invention provides a system library, which includes strongly typed classes that enterprise applications may use in order to obtain code assist and compile time checking from... Agent: Ibm Corp (ya) C/o Yee & Associates PC

20060294527 - Apparatus and method for interfacing hardware events with software events: An apparatus for associating a hardware event with a software component event. The system includes a hardware interrupt signal input. It also includes a first-in-first-out data structure coupled with the hardware interrupt signal input. Further included is a dispatch thread component coupled with the first-in-first-out data structure. The dispatch thread... Agent: Michael F. Williams Simmons, Perrine, Albright & Ellwood, P.L.C

20060294528 - Process and apparatus for sharing inline caches: A technique for dynamic dispatch involves adapting a method at a dispatch point to reference a state cache. State of the state cache may be associated with an object type and a method signature. When a method is adapted at the dispatch point to reference a state cache, the reference... Agent: Perkins Coie LLP

20060288352 - Data processing method and system: A data processing method for operating a sample program and a related application programming interface comprises executing instructions of the sample program, and, for each specific instruction consisting of a call to the related application programming interface, accessing information embedded in the application programming interface relating to the specific instruction... Agent: Ibm Corporation

20060288353 - Unique identifier resolution interfaces for lightweight runtime identity: The present invention extends the reflection feature found in some virtual machines or code execution managers by providing interface mechanisms that expose unique identifiers, e.g., metadata tokens and runtime handles. These interfaces are further configured to resolve these unique identifiers to their respective member info or data structures, and vise... Agent: Rick Nydegger Workman Nydegger

20060282838 - Mpi-aware networking infrastructure: The present invention provides for reduced message-passing protocol communication overhead between a plurality of high performance computing (HPC) cluster computing nodes. In particular, HPC cluster performance and MPI host-to-host functionality, performance, scalability, security, and reliability can be improved. A first information handling system host, and its associated network interface controller... Agent: Hamilton & Terrile, LLP

20060282839 - Mechanism for monitoring instruction set based thread execution on a plurality of instruction sequencers: A technique to monitor software thread performance and update software that issues or uses the thread(s) to reduce performance-inhibiting events. At least one embodiment of the invention uses hardware and/or software timers or counters to monitor various events associated with executing user-level threads and report these events back to a... Agent: Blakely Sokoloff Taylor & Zafman

20060282840 - Dynamic mapping of shared libraries: A method and system to adapt a processing system to cause an application that references an original dll with an original API to be simultaneously compatible with a new dll sharing the original API that establishes a router module having the original API and a router name, renames the original... Agent: Agilent Technologies Inc.

20060277553 - Application programming interface for fusion message passaging technology: A data-processing system and method are disclosed, which generally includes a plurality of components connected to a bus within a data-processing apparatus utilizing one or more input/output interfaces (e.g., IOCTL) in communication with the bus. A dynamic interface is implemented, which includes a plurality of interface modules that permits varying...

20060277554 - Business process extensions to enable alerts and reports within the context of groupware: A backend enterprise server includes an application that sends metadata to a groupware client. The metadata enables an enterprise user to modify a function of the backend application from within the context of the groupware client. The groupware client sends metadata describing the modification back to the backend application where...
