Filed:

Jun 30, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/164983

Inventors:

Robert Allan Clyde - Pleasant Grove UT, US

International Classification:

G06F 11/30

US Classification:

713187, 713176

Abstract:

When an executable file cannot be run on a client computer until the digital signature has been verified, the streaming server performs the verification if the entire file is not present on the client. More specifically, the client detects requests to verify digital signatures on executable files before allowing them to run. The client determines whether the entire executable file is present, and whether the server is trusted to verify digital signatures. If the entire file is not present locally and the server is trusted, the request to verify the digital signature is passed to the server. The server verifies the digital signature on its complete copy of the executable file, and returns the result to the client.

Adaptive Computing Enterprises, Inc. - Provo UT

International Classification:

G06F 9/48

US Classification:

718105

Abstract:

Disclosed are methods for estimating a time associated with shifting a first workload from a first compute environment to a second compute environment, separate from the first compute environment, estimating a likelihood of success associated with a likelihood that the first workload could successfully be shifted to the second compute environment, dividing or using the likelihood of success by the time to yield or produce a risk-adjusted shift time and, when a comparison of the shift time is longer than a maximum acceptable wait time, proceeding with a first operation associated with how to preempt the first workload by the second workload.

Appl. No.:

6/673128

Inventors:

Robert A. Clyde - Orem UT

Assignee:

Clyde, Inc. - Orem UT

International Classification:

G06F 900
G06F 1100

US Classification:

364300

Abstract:

In a digital computing system such as the Digital Equipment Corporation's VAX computer system which uses the VMS operating system in which terminal devices are connected to the system through terminal dependent device drivers coupled to terminal independent device drivers so that the operating system of the computer system need not be modified each time a terminal device is added or subtracted, a system and method is provided for effectively paralleling an auxiliary terminal with a selected terminal of the system so that the selected terminal can be monitored for instruction, security, audit, or other purposes, by creating a user controlling driver and a user controlling device coupled thereto, and coupling the user controlling driver and user controlling device combination between the terminal independent device driver and the terminal dependent device driver associated with the terminal device to be paralleled so that the output of the terminal independent device driver intended for the terminal dependent device driver passes through the user controlling driver and user controlling device before arriving at the terminal dependent device driver and the output of the terminal dependent device driver intended for the terminal independent device driver passes through the user controlling driver and user controlling device before arriving at the terminal independent device driver and making the information passing through the user controlling driver available to the auxiliary terminal device.

International Classification:

A63F 13/65

Abstract:

A method of allocating computer resources in a computer system including a multicore processor having a plurality of cores. The method includes monitoring usage of the computer resources by processes executing on the computer system and determining, based upon the monitoring, that one of the processes is a high-utilization process consuming greater than a predefined threshold of the computer resources and corresponds to an application in an interactive state. One or more of the plurality of cores are allocated to the high-utilization process and other of the plurality of cores are allocated to remaining processes, thereby improving performance of the high-utilization process. Upon detecting the application has transitioned from the interactive state, one or more of the cores are previously allocated to the high-utilization process are enabled to be allocated to other than the high-utilization process.
