    摘要: In a programmable protocol engine, a core central processor implements a plurality of programmable finite state machines that perform context-dependent operations, and programmable satellite processing units that perform context-free operations. To assist in buffering the two way communications of the protocol engine, a memory is included which interacts with the central processor and the satellite units. The programmability of the protocol engine is achieved by realizing the satellite units with combinations of a processing unit and a memory unit which stores the instructions to be performed by the corresponding processing unit. The sequence of instructions to be performed is drawn from a small unique set of instructions which are adapted particularly to the tasks associated with protocol implementations. Instruction ports are provided for loading the necessary instructions to the satellite units and the central processor, thereby implementing a chosen protocol. To permit use of the protocol engine in environments where a plurality of users are multiplexed onto a single physical link, additional means are provided for storing the state of the finite state machines within the central processor, and for restoring the finite state machines to a previously stored set of states.

    摘要: A method and apparatus is disclosed for determining an objective measure of performance of an extended finite state machine. Many modern complex systems, for example, computer communications protocols and computer or machine user interfaces, can be represented as extended finite state machines. A formal description of the extended finite state machine is employed to obtain a canonical form description. The canomical form description, combined with a service description, is used to generate a list of canocial state transitions transited by the extended finite state machine to perform the service. From this list, an objective measurement of performance, e.g., the time required to perform a particular service, is obtained. This objective measurement may then be used as desired, for example, to select an optimum extended finite state machine from a plurality of extended finite state machines.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are provided for obtaining a signal strength model for an access point at an arbitrary location, q, at a site. Signal strength measurements are obtained for each of n sampling points; the signal strength received at the arbitrary location, q, is computed from each of the sampling points (for example, using reciprocity principles); signal strength estimates corresponding to the signal received at the sampling points from the arbitrary location are computed; and a signal strength model is determined for an access point positioned at the arbitrary location, q.
