The present invention relates to application processing and decisioning systems and processes. One embodiment of the invention includes a method for automating decisioning for a credit request associated with an applicant. The method includes providing a user computer interface adapted to receive information associated with an applicant, and further adapted to display and receive information associated with at least one decision rule. The method also includes receiving information associated with an applicant through the user computer interface; receiving information associated with the applicant from at least one data source; and receiving a selection of information associated with a plurality of decision rules through the user computer interface. Furthermore, the method includes receiving a selection of rule flow information associated with the plurality of decision rules through the user computer interface; generating a plurality of decision rules based at least in part on the information associated with the applicant, based at least in part on the information associated with the applicant from at least one data source, and based at least in part on the selection of information associated with a plurality of decision rules, wherein an outcome associated with the at least one decision rule can be obtained; and based in part on at least the rule flow information, displaying at least a portion of the plurality of decision rules through the user computer interface.

The present invention essentially comprises a Packet Receiver and a Stream Manager for a computer network. When a stream of packets passes through the present invention, they are received by the Packet Receiver. The Packet Receiver identifies the session to which the packet stream belongs, and passes the packet to the Stream Manager. The Stream Manager identifies the application generating the packet stream by scanning an Application ID Hash Table, which is a table that contains a mapping of destination ports to corresponding applications. Thereafter, it uses a State Machine Execution Engine to execute application decode instructions on the packet stream. The application decode instructions are stored in a table called Expression Action Table, and are generated based on a decode script created by the user for each application. The application decode instructions are chosen by the State Machine Execution Engine based on the current state of an Application Decode State Machine, which is a state machine that keeps track of the application decode process. The results of the State Machine Execution Engine are passed to the Stream Manager, and are stored in tables called Session Cache Table and Application Instance Table. Once the Stream Manager has decoded all the transactions and parameters of the application, the decoded information is sent with the packets in the packet stream.

A system and method for enforcing policies on data packets in a computer network is disclosed. The enforcement of policies is done by prioritizing and regulating the flow of data packets. The regulation of prioritized data packets includes a determination of: service level agreement violations, flow control of data packets of a predefined priority and session resettings. For determination of service level agreements the policy engine carries out a response time calculation and finds if it is in consonance with the response time agreed upon in the service level agreement. Flow control in case of a service level agreement violation is implemented either by reducing the server side window size or by delaying acknowledgement packets sent by the client.

A CMOS gain stage includes biasing circuitry configured to insure saturation of a subsequent stage without a source follower circuit. The CMOS gain stage is optionally powered by a supply voltage that is greater than a permitted supply voltage for a processes technology that is used to fabricate the CMOS gain stage. In order to protect CMOS devices within the CMOS gain stage, optional drain-to-bulk junction punch-through protection circuitry is disclosed. A variety of optional features can be implemented alone and/or in various combinations of one another. Optional features include process-voltage-temperature (“PVT”) variation protection circuitry, which renders a gain relatively independent of process, voltage, and/or temperature variations. Optional features further include bandwidth enhancement circuitry.
摘要:
Enforcing a plurality of different policies on a stream of packets is disclosed. In lieu of running separate algorithms for each policy, the system exploits the commonalities of all of the policies. The conditions corresponding to the compiled rules are arranged in a condition tree and processed in a pipelined architecture that allows the results of the various stages to be carried forward into subsequent stages of processing. The rules for which all conditions have been satisfied can be identified by one stage of processing in one pass of condition tree traversal and are passed to subsequent stages. A rule table corresponding to an individual policy type can then be readily examined to determine partial or complete satisfaction of the rule of that policy type, without requiring a re-examination of the conditions underlying the rule. Additionally, corresponding actions can be taken where rule satisfaction is determined. This approach allows extremely high-speed policy enforcement performance.
摘要:
The present invention is a system and method for allowing an administrator of a computer network higher up in a hierarchical arrangement to define the scope of policies for the services offered, and users lower in the hierarchical arrangement to customize policies within the scope defined by the administrator. While defining policy rules, administrators classify them as scoping or non-scoping. Users lower in the hierarchical arrangement can then customize scoping rules by defining sub-rules. Policy rules have a condition part and an action part, and the sub-rules can be used to change the scope of the condition and action parts. The present invention adds all the non-scoping policy rules, all the scoping policy rules, and all the sub-rules (with their scope limited by the scoping rules) to a rules database. This rules database is then used by any policy enforcement engine to enforce policy rules.
