摘要:
Executing an accelerator application program in a hybrid computing environment with a host computer having a host computer architecture; an accelerator having an accelerator architecture, the accelerator architecture optimized, with respect to the host computer architecture, for speed of execution of a particular class of computing functions; the host computer and the accelerator adapted to one another for data communications by a system level message passing module, where executing an accelerator application program on an accelerator includes receiving, from a host application program on the host computer, operating information for an accelerator application program; designating a directory as a CWD for the accelerator application program, separate from any other CWDs of any other applications running on the accelerator; assigning, to the CWD, a name that is unique with respect to names of other CWDs of other applications in the computing environment; and starting the accelerator application program on the accelerator.

摘要:
Executing a service program for an accelerator application program in a hybrid computing environment that includes a host computer and an accelerator, the host computer and the accelerator adapted to one another for data communications by a system level message passing module; where the service program includes a host portion and an accelerator portion and executing a service program for an accelerator includes receiving, from the host portion, operating information for the accelerator portion; starting the accelerator portion on the accelerator; providing, to the accelerator portion, operating information for the accelerator application program; establishing direct data communications between the host portion and the accelerator portion; and, responsive to an instruction communicated directly from the host portion, executing the accelerator application program.

A method, system, and program for tracking locally broadcast electronic works are provided. According to one aspect of the invention, a sending player locally broadcasts an electronic work. In particular, the local broadcast may be a wireless broadcast creating an ad-hoc radio system. At least one recipient player receives the localized broadcast of the electronic work and accepts a distribution cookie for tracking distribution of the electronic work. The at least one recipient player updates the distribution cookie with tracking information about the broadcast of the electronic work, including ratings by users at the second player and purchase of the broadcast electronic work. Each of the at least one recipient players may in turn become a sending player that broadcasts the electronic work to other recipient players and requires the other recipient players to accept a copy of the distribution cookie updated by the second player. Then, responsive to detecting a network connection to a statistics server, the at least one recipient player provides the distribution cookie to the statistics server, such that localized broadcast distribution of the electronic work is tracked.

An attribute is associated with one or more files stored on a storage medium, wherein the attribute is indicative to software utilized by a processor to access the files that the files are deletable. One or more files associated with the attribute can be deleted. Files can be deleted, for example, based upon receipt of a request for file system space. A sufficient amount of free space can be created to fulfill the request via the deletion of the one or more files associated with the attribute. A history of accesses to the files can be maintained and a least recently accessed file, associated with the attribute, can be deleted. Files can also be deleted according to a priority included in the attribute.
摘要:
A method, system, and program for responding to recipient ratings of wirelessly broadcast electronic works are provided. A secondary player receives a wireless broadcast of an electronic work from a primary player. Next, responsive to a playback of the electronic work from the secondary player, the secondary player requires a recipient of the electronic work to rate the electronic work. Then, responsive to the recipient rating the electronic work or an automatic rating selection made based on the recipient's preferences, the options available to the recipient may be dynamically adjusted. First, responsive to the recipient rating the electronic work with a favorable rating, the secondary player triggers a purchase offer for the electronic work when the secondary player is connected to a network providing access to a purchase server. Second, responsive to the recipient rating the electronic work, the secondary player transfers the rating to the primary player, such that the primary player is enabled to dynamically adjust a next electronic work selection for broadcast based on the rating for the previously broadcast electronic work.

摘要:
Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for referencing message elements in an application message in a messaging environment that include: establishing a message model on a computer, the message model comprising message element specifications that each specify a message element for storing data in the application messages, each message element specification comprising element characteristics; creating, by a messaging module on the computer in dependence upon the message model, a message element designator map that maps a separate message element designator to each message element specified by the message model; receiving, in the messaging module from a requesting module, a request for an element designator for a specific message element identified by the element characteristics for the specific message element; and providing, by the messaging module to the requesting module, the requested element designator in dependence upon the message element designator map and the element characteristics for the specific message element.
