Herein described is a method and system for archiving data files into a data storage device. The data storage device acts as a central depository where the data files may be archived by one or more data computing devices. The data storage device may be communicatively coupled to the one or more data computing devices in a network. The method may utilize one or more intelligent algorithms to prioritize which data files in a data computing device are archived into the data storage device. Further, a method and system for swapping data files between a data computing device and a data storage device is presented. An embodiment of a system comprises a first processor in a data computing device, a first software resident in said data computing device, a data storage device, a second processor in said data storage device, and a second software resident in said data storage device.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for performing adaptive memory power management in a system employing a CPU and a memory subsystem. A CPU throttle control (THR) module generates a CPU throttle control signal indicating when the CPU is idle. A memory controller (MC) module generates memory power management signals based on at least one of the CPU throttle control signal, memory read/write signals, memory access break events, and bus master access requests. Certain portions of the memory subsystem are powered down in response to the memory power management signals. Memory power management is performed on a time segment by time segment basis to achieve efficient power management of the memory subsystem during CPU run time.

A system and method for instrumenting a software build to automatically generate code coverage data without the use of external code coverage tools is presented. A software build is generated. The software build is independently executable. The software build is then instrumented to automatically generate code coverage data when executed. The instrumented software is executable independent of any external code coverage tools.

A method and apparatus is disclosed for controlling the application of a clock stopping signal in a processor to limit power consumption. The system controller receives addresses, signals indicative of primary and secondary system activity, and at least one nap timeout signal. Addresses are compared with programmed addresses. Matching addresses trigger a nap mode. Upon nap mode triggering, the clock stopping signal may be applied during a throttling period. Applying the clock stopping signal with programmable duty cycle during the throttling period ensures that processing necessary for the detection and servicing of primary and secondary activity can occur. A prefetch detect circuit ensures that programmed addresses loaded in the middle of a prefetch do not trigger the clock stopping signal. The clock stopping signal is removed or inhibited when primary or secondary activity is detected or when nap mode is terminated by timeout.

Aspects of a method and system for predictive leasing of network services and applications based on a usage pattern may comprise a management entity that coordinates operation of one or more endpoint devices. A user profile associated with the one or more endpoint devices may be received by the management entity, wherein the management entity may utilize the user profile associated with the one or more endpoint devices and a usage pattern associated with the one or more endpoint devices to determine leasing information for the one or more endpoint devices. The management entity may be operable to communicate the determined leasing information to the one or more endpoint devices. The leasing information may comprise leasing services and/or applications to the one or more endpoint devices.

Herein described is a system and a method of storing and distributing multimedia data selections to the tenants or occupants of a multi-unit building. The multi-unit building may comprise a hotel, motel, office complex, or apartment complex, for example. The storage capacity of the data storage device may be easily expanded by way of adding one or more additional hard disk drives. The data storage device may be conveniently located in a front office or manager's office of the multi-unit building. The system distributes one or more of the stored multimedia data selections to one or more display devices communicatively coupled to the data storage device. Each of the one or more display devices may be located in corresponding units of the multi-unit building. The one or more display devices are used to view the multimedia data selections requested by a tenant or occupant.

Aspects of a method and system for traffic management via virtual machine migration include detecting an abnormal traffic pattern in traffic communicated by a first virtual machine that utilizes a first set of network resources. Responsive to the detection of the abnormal pattern, a second virtual machine that utilizes a second set of network resources may be initialized. The second virtual machine may take over functions performed by the first virtual machine and initialization of the second virtual machine is based on an analysis of the traffic. The second virtual machine may be initialized utilizing stored virtual machine state information in instances that the abnormal traffic is a result of a malicious attack. The second virtual machine may be initialized utilizing current virtual machine state information in instances that the abnormal traffic is not a result of a malicious attack.
摘要:
A central audio hub, comprising an audio switch, a bus matrix, and an audio buffer, is triggered to read audio samples of an audio stream from the audio buffer. The central audio hub routes the audio samples via the bus matrix to one or more surrounding audio modules such as an audio codec and an audio interface communicatively coupled to the central audio hub. The audio stream may be directly from an external application processor or from an external DDR. With the audio stream from the DDR, a DMA controller may fetch the audio samples from the DDR in response to a request received from the audio buffer, and store the fetched audio samples into the audio buffer for routing. The audio switch may be triggered at a determined sampling rate to read the audio samples from the audio buffer utilizing a determined sample format, and to route the audio samples to the surrounding audio modules.

A virtual machine running on an endpoint device may encode a mark comprising routing parameters within one or more packets of a packet stream to indicate services and/or costs to be utilized in processing and/or communicating the packet stream. The virtual machine may communicate the packet stream to another network device. The routing parameters within the marks may indicate device capabilities, service class, quality measurements, latency and/or power usage. The routing parameters may comprise costs that may indicate capacity, efficiency and/or performance of power usage, bandwidth, absolute and/or relative latency, frame-drop eligibility, memory and processing. The packet stream is received and inspected to identify the marks and/or routing parameters. A virtual machine may be initialized and/or configured to process and/or communicate the packet stream based on the routing parameters. Routing may utilize based SPB, TRILL, and/or AVB.
