Dynamic generation of target files from template files and tracking of the processing of target files

Target file generation systems and methods are described, which are optionally for use by ordinary computer users enable those users to readily generate target files without the requirement that they know the internal layout structures of the target files. A user is enabled to select a template file from a plurality of template files via a user interface configured to be displayed on a computer display to the user, wherein the template files include changeable fields associated with corresponding field delimiters and prompting labels. An incomplete software program file containing variable name locations is accessed from memory. The program file is parsed to locate the variable name locations. The label names obtained from the template file selected by the user are inserted into the variable name locations to further complete the software program file. The software program file is stored in computer memory.

System and method for identifying parties in bills for communications services

In an information assistance system, when a first party calls the service to request a communications number (i.e., phone number) of a second party, an indicator of the second party, such as the second party's name, is inserted into an event record to be provided to a billing platform. The indicator may also be the second party's address, instead of or along with the second party's name. The name may thereby be readily provided in a bill for the call. In a carrier network, the name of a second party called by a first party is inserted in an event record, so that the second party's name may be included in a bill for the call. The name may be determined by submitting the second party's communications number, which may be derived from call set up signals, to a database correlating communications numbers with corresponding parties' names. This may take place while the communication is being connected. Methods and systems are disclosed.

Method and apparatus for implementing task management of computer operations

A development and runtime framework for applications that execute in real-time operating systems. Application development is enhanced through simple instructions that allow a programmer to declare functions and sets of functions as tasks and supertasks, respectively, and manage the execution of functions, tasks and supertasks with priorities. A compiler or pre-processor provides tools for generating the code for tasks and supertasks, and the management code for managing execution. Function calls may be made directly to functions within supertasks via respective entrypoints, and the tasks are managed based on the functions being invoked. Within a supertask, a higher priority function may be runnable while a lower priority function of that supertask is suspended. A cookie is used to recognize when a register update for a supertask may be omitted, enabling more efficient context switching.

Method and device for shaping the injection pressure in a fuel injector

A method for triggering a fuel injector via an on / off valve and a control valve that actuates it. The fuel injector has a pressure booster whose piston parts separate a working chamber from a differential pressure chamber. Via a compression chamber of the pressure booster, a nozzle chamber of the fuel injector can be acted on with highly pressurized fuel. The working chamber of the pressure booster communicates continuously with a common rail. During the main phase in which fuel is injected into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, the control valve that actuates the on / off valve is triggered once or multiple times so that the maximum pressure level occurring at the combustion chamber end of a one-part or multipart injection valve member falls below the maximum achievable pressure level.
