摘要： A method and apparatus for managing CPU resources of a logically partitioned computing environment without shared memory access. A logical partition needing additional resources sends a message requesting such resources to a central domain manager, which sends messages to other partitions in the same group requesting that they assess their ability to donate resources to the requesting partition. Upon receiving such assessment request, each logical partition assesses its ability to donate resources to the requesting partition and responds accordingly to the domain manager. If at least one partition responds that it can donate resources to the requesting partition, the domain manager sends a message to a selected donor partition requesting that it reconfigure itself to donate resources to the requesting partition. Upon receiving a notification from the donor partition that it has successfully reconfigured itself, the domain manager notifies the requesting partition, which reconfigures itself to accept the donated resources.

摘要： A method and apparatus for obtaining a local performance measure for a particular server in a particular tier in a transaction environment in which transactions pass through multiple tiers with multiple servers at each tier. The contribution from the particular server to the total end-to-end response time for a set of transactions is scaled by the ratio of transactions passing through the particular tier to transactions passing through the particular server to obtain a scaled contribution from the particular tier. This is added to the contribution from outside the particular tier to obtain a modified total end-to-end response time from the perspective of the particular server. The modified total end-to-end response time is divided by the number of transactions in the set to obtain a modified average end-to-end response time from the perspective of the particular server, which is used to control allocation of resources to the server.

摘要： Techniques for globally managing systems are provided. One or more measurable effects of at least one hypothetical action to achieve a management goal are determined at a first system manager. The one or more measurable effects are sent from the first system manager to a second system manager. At the second system manager, one or more procedural actions to achieve the management goal are determined in response to the one or more received measurable effects. The one or more procedural actions are executed to achieve the management goal.

摘要： A small baseline audio sample is sampled when a person initially calls in and the sample is held only for the duration of the call. For each subsequent transfer, a comparison is made to the baseline established from the initial call and at the end of the call the voice sample is discarded so no resources need to be maintained. Speaker verification and VOIP technologies are used to persist the customer's verification information as service representative hand-offs occur.

摘要： An apparatus comprises a hardware accelerator coupled to a memory. The hardware accelerator comprises one or more decompression units. The one or more decompression units are reconfigurable. The hardware accelerator may be a field-programmable gate array. The hardware accelerator may also comprise one or more reconfigurable scanner units. The one or more decompression units, in the aggregate, are operative to decompress one or more rows of a database at a bus speed of the coupling between the hardware accelerator and the memory. Two or more decompression units are operative to decompress two or more rows of a database in parallel. The apparatus allows for hardware accelerated row decompression.
