Abstract:
Systems and methods of mobile communication roaming where a subscriber's home network and a roaming network used by the subscriber do not have a roaming agreement. Roaming between an alliance of coordinated operators having bilateral roaming relationships and operators who do not have roaming agreements with the alliance is provided. By subscribing to the system, a non-alliance operator can gain roaming access to alliance networks having existing bilateral roaming relationships. An authentication message is received from a roaming network in which a subscriber is roaming and the message is authenticated if there is a roaming relationship. The authentication message is forwarded to the home network via an alliance network and responsive to the indication that the authentication message was received at a roaming network, roaming transactions are enabled for the subscriber within the roaming network.
Abstract:
A graphical editor displays graphical representations of underlying data items in a distribution of information-bearing states across a bounded region of a display. One or more of the data items are selected as belonging to a context of a user task or operation. The information-bearing states are redistributed in the bounded region of the display so that an amount of information sufficient to the task is provided through the graphical representations of the data items in the context and any space in the bounded region of the display needed to display such information is acquired by a decrease in the amount of information provided by the data items outside the context.
Abstract:
A method and system are disclosed for optimizing load scheduling for a power plant having one or more power generator units. An exemplary method and corresponding system can involve detecting an event indicative of a need for adapting one or more constraints for an objective function used in load scheduling. On such detection, the objective function is analysed to determine adaptive constraint values for the one or more constraints for optimally solving the objective function. These adaptive constraint values can be used to solve the objective function and the solution of the objective function with the one or more adapted constraint values can be used to operate the one or more power generation units of the power plant.
Abstract:
The invention provides a system and method for automatically displaying a user's logged-in status across an Internet based network of affiliated Web sites via a visual indicator such as a toolbar to help the user to be certain about his logged-in status when he stays with one or switches from one to another affiliated Web site.
Abstract:
A system and method of mobile communication roaming where a subscriber's home network and a roaming network used by the subscriber do not have a roaming agreement. The roaming network sends a “Send Authentication/Parameters” request to the home network via an intelligent roaming system on or attached to the backbone. The home network sends an authentication response to the “Send Authentication/Parameters” request from the home network to the roaming network via the backbone and intelligent roaming system. The roaming network sends a “Update Location” request from the roaming network to the intelligent roaming system. The visitor locator register (VLR) address in the “Update Location” request is replaced with the VLR address of the intelligent roaming system to create a modified update request. The modified update request is sent from the intelligent roaming system to the home network. The home network sends an update response to the modified update request to the roaming network via the backbone and intelligent roaming system.
Abstract:
Critical servers are identified in a network, based upon network flow records collected from the network for a predetermined period. A plurality of rules are applied to application-server pairs based upon the collected network flow records to identify, among the application-server pairs, candidate application-server pairs that satisfy at least one of the plurality of rules during the predetermined period in excess of a predetermined number of times, in which case the application-server pair is identified as a candidate application-server pair. A global application-server list including application-server pairs identified across all of the sources is determined. A critical server list including servers corresponding to the global application-server list is generated. Various network mappings comprised of the servers in the critical server list are created, and network measures corresponding to the mappings are displayed.
Abstract:
A method includes determining a plurality of memory addresses, each memory address being different from one another. The method further includes generating a plurality of system management interrupt interprocessor interrupts, each system management interrupt interprocessor interrupt having a corresponding processor in a plurality of processors in a system and each system management interrupt interprocessor interrupt including one of the plurality of memory addresses. The method further includes directing each system management interrupt interprocessor interrupt to the corresponding processor. An associated machine readable medium is also disclosed.
