System and method for centralized software management in virtual machines

InactiveUS20060184937A1Simplifies management system updateSimple dataSoftware simulation/interpretation/emulationMemory systemsMaintenance releaseData center
Virtual machines of a virtual data center generate runtime instances with a software image, hardware configuration, management configuration and user / service configuration. Virtual data center resource use is monitored by reference to the management configuration of runtime instances, such as for environmental controls like power, cooling and balancing, or for policy limitations on users, software or hardware. Users or services generate runtime instances of stored virtual machines by reference to the user / service configuration, such as pricing or priority. In one example embodiment, the virtual machine software image comprises an application system preparation file that populates a read only application image common to plural virtual machines. Information unique to each virtual machine with respect to the application is maintained in the user / service configuration of the virtual machine and version information is maintained in the management configuration of the virtual machine. Updates to the application across each virtual machine are performed by updating the read only image or any of its configuration information for hardware configuration, management configuration or user / service configuration.

Ambient noise sound level compensation

Systems and methods for ambient noise compensation are disclosed. One example of a system includes a variable amplifier, a source sound processor, an area sound processor, and an adjustment circuit. The variable amplifier adjusts an audio input signal to generate an audio output signal with an appropriate level so that the audio output signal is audible over noise in a listening area. The source sound processor and the area sound processor may split the audio output signal and a monitoring signal into frequency bands, and may compare these signals band-by band to find differences that represent time-varying noise in the monitoring signal. These differences may be modified to account for the acoustic response of the listening area and for constant-level background noise in the listening area. The adjustment circuit controls the variable amplifier in response to these differences.

The adaptive antenna array (14) is operationally responsive to a signal processor (28) that co-operates with direction of arrival estimation logic (36) to assess an angle of arrival of uplink communications incident to the array. To avoid inter-cell interference, especially during early stages of a call, the signal processor operates to ensure that a wide area downlink beam (108) is provided for a downlink path to an addressed subscriber unit. With time and / or with reported (68,84) downlink quality of service (QoS) metrics, the signal processor (28) regulates (74, 92, 96) a width of the downlink beam by altering the number of antenna elements used to support the downlink beam, thereby altering the downlink beam aperture. Generally, with time, more antenna elements (92) are used and so the beam is narrowed, although in-call fluctuations in downlink quality of service are dynamically addressed by the signal processor (28) by either narrowing or broadening the width of the downlink beam by respectively switching antenna elements (12a–12k, 48a–48k) into (92) or out (96) of the adaptive antenna array (14), as shown in FIG. 3.
