A method of encoding knowledge is disclosed, which can be used to automatically detect problems in software application deployments. The method includes accessing a source of knowledge describing a problem known to occur in deployments of a particular software application, and which identifies a plurality of conditions associated with the problem. An encoded representation of the knowledge source is generated according to a predefined knowledge encoding methodology. The encoded representation is adapted to be applied automatically by a computer to analyze data representing a current state of a monitored deployment of the software application to detect whether the conditions and the problem exist therein. In various implementations, the encoded representation of the knowledge can include queries for deployment information, information concerning the relative importance of the conditions to a detection of the problem, and/or logical constructs for computing a confidence value in the existence of the problem and for determining whether to report the problem if some of the conditions are not true. The knowledge source can comprise a text document (such as a knowledge base article), a flowchart of a diagnostic troubleshooting method, and the like. Also disclosed are methods of at least partially automating the encoding process.

A general method is described for producing an inexpensive touchscreen system that provides accurate positional information and compensates for manufacturing variations without complicated sensor arrangements. Utilizing a set of sensed signals that are unique to each location on the touchscreen sensor, equations for X and Y are derived via curve fitting methods. The coefficients of the equations are stored with the sensor. During touchscreen operation the coefficients are used to calculate X and Y to the desired accuracy directly and independently.

An index data structure comprises a plurality of index keys for uniquely identifying potential data object context nodes. Each index key is, in turn, associated with one or more potential context nodes. Moreover, the index key has a label that provides semantic content to a user. The index data structure further comprises one or more routing tables associated with each index key that generally include a plurality of path references.

The present invention is directed to mechanisms for content-aware redirection and content exchange/content discovery that permit a request for content to be redirected to a particular advantageous server that can serve the content.

In a communication method, a sequence of information bits is encoded into systematic bits and parity bits. The systematic bits and the parity bits are grouped in output blocks, each output block to be assigned to an address of a constellation scheme. The addresses include addresses that are more prone to error and address that are less prone to error so that the symbols are grouped such that bits in groups of consecutive bits of the sequence of information bits are not all assigned to addresses that are more prone to error.

A method (and system) for emulating a target system's memory addressing using a virtual-to-real memory mapping mechanism of a host multiprocessor system's operating system, includes inputting a target virtual memory address into a simulated page table to obtain a host virtual memory address. The target system is oblivious to the software it is running on.

A system and method for converting byte code of a first type into byte code of a second type. Byte code of a first type is received as input. The first byte code is converted into constituent byte code data elements that can comprise any logical unit or grouping of at least a portion of a software application. The first byte code data elements are mapped to data elements of a second byte code type. The second byte code data elements are assembled into a resulting second byte code.

Aspects comprise a ray shooting method based on the data structure of a uniform grid of cells, and on local stencils in cells. The high traversal and construction costs of accelerating structures are cut down. The object's visibility from the viewpoint and from light sources, as well as the primary workload and its distribution among cells, are gained in the preprocessing stage and cached in stencils for runtime use. In runtime, the use of stencils allows a complete locality at each cell, for load balanced parallel processing.

A transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus, and a method of signal processing are provided. The transmitting apparatus includes at least one processor configured to implement: a packet generator which generates a packet including a header and a payload, based on an input stream; and a signal processor which signal-processes the generated packet. The header includes a base header, and the base header includes various fields indicating at least one of a packet type, and a value indicating that the packet transmits one single complete input packet, a segment of an input packet, or a plurality of input packets. The fields included in the base header may also indicate presence of an additional header and a substream identifier.

The present invention relates to providing control information within a search space for blind decoding in a multi-carrier communication system. In particular, the control information is carried within a sub-frame of the communication system, the sub-frame including a plurality of control channel elements. The control channel elements may be aggregated into candidates for blind decoding. The number of control channel elements in a candidate is called aggregation level. In accordance with the present invention, the candidates of lower aggregation levels are localised, meaning that the control channel elements of one candidate are located adjacently to each other in the frequency domain. Some candidates of the higher aggregation level(s) are distributed in the frequency.

Systems, methods, and computer products that efficiently share and move data between different types of data storage formats. More particularly, the preferred embodiment of the present invention provides an easy to use graphical user interface (GUI) for displaying, navigating, and selecting hierarchical database segments and fields. The preferred embodiment of the present invention novelly uses a hierarchical tree structure that clearly represents the structures of a database and their mutual exclusivity, for easy understanding of and navigation through the various database structures. The user is prevented from selecting segments and fields that are not valid for the selected path thereby ensuring accuracy in the representation of the database data structures. Also, the user may select a path from the top of the hierarchical tree, the root, to a specific segment or field.

The transmitting apparatus includes: at least one processor configured to implement a packet generator which generates a packet including a header and a payload based on a plurality of input packets; and a signal processor which signal-processes the generated packet, and a transmitter configured to transmit the signal-processed packet. A base field included in the header includes a first field set to a first value representing that the base field is a first length or a second value representing that the base field is a second length.

A method for mitigating interference by a femto Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system including a macro BS is provided. The method includes receiving information about resources allocated for a channel measurement signal from the macro BS, measuring an UpLink (UL) power by detecting a channel measurement signal transmitted from at least one Mobile Station (MS) to the macro BS based on the received information, determining MSs whose UL powers are greater than or equal to a threshold, and transmitting identification information for the MSs to the macro BS.

Signal elements are mapped to a limited range of identifiers by emulating a “virtual” space of identifiers larger than the real limited space of identifiers. The larger virtual identifier space is implemented by an intermediate memory, which provides storage of identifiers assigned from the real space of identifiers. For each signal element to be mapped to an identifier, the intermediate memory is addressed by a hash value calculated from at least part of the signal element, thus allowing access to an identifier. The larger virtual space gives a better distribution of signal elements to the identifiers; and reduces the probability of different signal elements being mapped to the same identifier (“clashing”). For an efficient reduction of the clashing probability, identifiers with a low probability of being active are assigned to the intermediate memory to represent new signal elements.
