A new approach to maintaining concurrency in a network element management database. A background process constantly monitors the channels which carry network element configuration commands, and automatically parses any messages which carry information about the status of network elements. The information derived from parsing these messages is then used for a dynamic update of the database of network element attributes. This means that the database is completely current on the very latest status changes, and operators do not have to cross-check log files to see if their data is current. Instead, a simple database query retrieves fully current information.

In a managed information network, unavailable agents have a detrimental effect on user access to manageable entities. Intelligent, optimal assignment of manageable entities to available agents becomes a formidable task, particularly in a large storage area network. The task becomes especially complex when there are deployed agents of different types capable to manage a different scope of functionality of managed elements of the same type. A failover processor provides reliable, rule based methods for initial assignment of manageable entities (elements) to best available management agents, and a reliable, dynamic, rule based mechanism to reallocate manageable entities to a best management agent in case when current agent, responsible for element management, become unavailable or new best agent for element management starts up. A prioritized list of failover rules specifies metrics for determining alternate agents for manageable entities in the event agents become unavailable. A failover chain, or list of agent types, identifies preferential agent types to which the reassigned manageable entities correspond. Successive prioritization rules apply in the event that multiple candidate agents of the failover chain selection are available.

In a communication network, the network management system NMS keeps one or more element management system EMS in synchronization of network topology changes using requests that are automatically generated or manually requested and then sent from the NMS to the affected EMS(s) whenever a node topology change is made at the NMS. Examples of changes are node creation, node move, node group move, node group renaming, etc. As the changes are completed in the EMS topology database, the EMS sends acknowledgments of the request to the NMS. This functionality requires verification of the validity of the request for that specific EMS, before the change is implemented at the NMS.

Stream applications may inefficiently use the hardware resources that execute the processing elements of the data stream. For example, a compute node may host four processing elements and execute each using a CPU. However, other CPUs on the compute node may sit idle. To take advantage of these available hardware resources, a stream programmer may identify one or more processing elements that may be cloned. The cloned processing elements may be used to generate a different execution path that is parallel to the execution path that includes the original processing elements. Because the cloned processing elements contain the same operators as the original processing elements, the data stream that was previously flowing through only the original processing element may be split and sent through both the original and cloned processing elements. In this manner, the parallel execution path may use underutilized hardware resources to increase the throughput of the data stream.

In a fixed channel wireless network system with a limited number of channels, assignment of the fixed channels between remote client elements and access elements is made systematically according to a set of criteria according for network loading and interference, then channel assignments are dynamically updated according to a priority to maintain optimal network performance with changing conditions of load and interference. The channel utilization problem is addressed at a system level rather than at a local level by treating the system as a three dimensional color mapping problem. All noise is treated as having a source in virtual access elements with an appropriate performance metric. The performance metric is used to select a channel set that minimize chances of interference and maximize user performance. Specifically, there are several parameter matrices which are managed and updated by a central resource management element, namely signal strength between elements, interference, and load. These matrices are used to find the optimal channel assignments for a predetermined limited set of assignable channels. In one implementation, the channel assignment methodology takes into account the interference associated with access elements operating on a selected channel, as well as the interference or energy that spills over (or is otherwise observable) on physical channels adjacent to the selected channel.

A method and apparatus controls a plurality of receiver channel elements (102a–102n), such as RAKE receiver fingers in a CDMA receiver, by assigning a real time priority metric to each channel type. For example, a receiver channel element management module (109) generates a channel weight value (216) and a receiver channel element factor value (218). The channel weight value (216) is dynamically determined on a per channel type basis representing an extent of energy demanded by a channel. For example, a channel at a higher rate may be programmed to start off with higher energy needs as compared to a different channel type, such as a voice channel which may communicate information at a lower rate. The receiver channel element factor value (218) is used to determine an impact of deassigning receiver fingers so that the dropped receiver finger is the one that is least harmful to all channels.

Access to network elements of a telecommunications network is integrated through a common access point by an integrated access application which receives a request for communication with a network element. An element management system (EMS) group, including at least one EMS server, associated with the network element is identified. The at least one EMS server is queried to identify an active EMS server and to determine whether the active EMS server has an available connection sufficient to support the request. When the active EMS server has the available connection, the request is sent over the available connection. When the active EMS server does not have the available connection, the request may be buffered and, after a predetermined time, it is again determined whether the active EMS server has the available connection. When the request is sent, it may be multiplexed with other requests over the same available connection.

The invention extends the utility of apparatus used to extract medicinal cannabis compounds into an eluate by separating a portion of medicinal cannabis compounds contained within a portion of eluate at a first extraction target level providing enough clean solvent to continue extraction operations. A high efficiency concentrator such as a rotary evaporator or a wiped film evaporator processes eluate from one or more tanks or extraction vessels creating clean solvent when extraction targets are met or when clean solvent is exhausted. This manages eluate concentration levels and limits the quantity of concentrated medicinal cannabis compounds on site at any moment in time. The invention enables a business model for keeping medicinal cannabis compounds within a legal system, and reduces pollution because law enforcement would no longer have to burn large quantities of cannabis plant matter.
