    摘要: Methods, systems and computer program products for performing multi-location execution of tests between or among multi-sided test components in a wireless environment are described. Multiple flows are initiated substantially simultaneously and concurrently executed. A graphical representation of a multi-flow test is created that permits synchronization of the flows among agents at multiple remote locations. The graphical representation is converted into a textual representation in an open communication standard format, and information regarding each flow involved in the test is ascertained. The flows are substantially simultaneously initiated and concurrently executed with synchronization and dynamic data exchange components.

    摘要: A generic notifications framework (GNF) system integrates information from different protocols in a management station interfaced with a network and permits correlation of the information to make more sophisticated management decisions. The generic notifications framework system has one or more protocol-specific translators in communication with the network, a generic notifications framework in communication with the translators, and one or more consumer components in communication with the framework. The translators receive event data elements corresponding with different management protocols from the network and translate the event data elements into respective canonical data structures. Each of the canonical data structures includes (a) a generic field that is common to all of the canonical data structures, (b) one or more attribute fields generated by the translator based upon an examination of a protocol data unit (PDU) associated with each of the event data elements, and (c) a protocol data unit (PDU) that is generally identical to the native PDU that arrived with the event data element. Consumer components register with the framework to receive any canonical data structures having particular attribute fields. The generic notifications framework forwards the appropriate canonical data structures to appropriate consumer components based upon the attribute field values. A correlator may be associated with the framework to correlate the canonical data structures to derive an intelligent event data element, which is essentially the result of an assimilation and logical evaluation of various event data elements. Hence, event data elements are treated and processed generically, and this feature permits more sophisticated decisions to be made.

    摘要: A method and system with associated data structures for providing management of topological associations between objects. The methods define an application programs interface (API) which specifies a consistent approach for the design of application programs to manage topological associations between objects. Objects each represent an aspect of a resource which is useful to a particular application program. Application programs define a resource aspect type for each object to be managed by the API. Objects are specified to the API by application programs along with resource names to identify a resource. The methods and structures of the present invention automatically recognize when the resource names of an object to be managed identify the same resource as other managed objects to thereby allow information to be more readily shared among disparate application programs and to reduce redundant storage of information by those programs.
