An instrumentation system profiles an application using structural metadata description of the application. Units (such as COM objects) of the application have strongly-typed, binary-standard interfaces, and are profiled, for example, using an executable file and DLLs for the application. A structural metadata description of the application includes compiled, interface-level type information used to identify and measure interaction between units of the application. For example, the type information is produced by analyzing IDL information. Profiling results in an application profile that includes description of the static relationships and/or dynamic interactions between units of the application. The application profile is combined with a network profile that describes a distributed computing environment. Analysis of the result yields a distribution plan, which, for example, reduces costs associated with communication between the units. During execution, units of the application are distributed through the distributed computing environment according to the distribution plan.

The invention provides a system and a method of selecting a version of a program code from a series of program codes for a program element associated with a hardware element for a circuit board. The invention identifies a compatible program code for a particular hardware element and downloads the compatible program code. A record is associated with the hardware element to identify its compatible program codes. The program codes are stored in a bundle and are associated with a software code. A program loader, associated with each bundle, checks the compatibilities of the hardware element to both the software code and the selected program code. Another record stores compatibility information of the program codes with hardware element versions and is also associated with the bundle. Code downloads are made first to an inactive memory bank and after the codes are verified, the inactive memory bank is made active.

When a face image can not detected by an individual authentication unit from an image photographed by a camera unit for a predetermined time or more, a control unit records a recording position of a corresponding time, and makes a receiving program continuously recorded by a recording reproducing unit in a common recording state in which a time shift function becomes invalid such that the face image is detected again by the individual authentication unit from the image photographed from the camera unit. When it is determined that a detected person is the same person as a first person based on a recognition result on the basis of features of the face image, the control unit makes a recorded program return to the recorded position so as to be reproduced while maintaining the common recording state.

In a method for the establishment of a connection between a first node (RNC1) and a second node (RNC2), both are connectable to a core network which comprises interconnected core network nodes (CN1, CN2). The first node (RNC1) signals a call request to a first core network node (CN1). If the first node is an access node, it sends an initialization according to a framing protocol, wherein a set of parameters for the framing of information sent over the interface between the first access node (RNC1) and the first core network node (CN1). If the first node is no access node, a first control server (MSC1) defines said set of parameters. The set of parameters is transmitted to the first core network node (CN1) and the first core network node (CN1) stores the parameter set. The first core network node (CN1) initializes the connection (Co) to a further core network node according to said protocol and the further core network node stores the parameter set. The initialization of the connection (Co) to and the storing of parameters in further core network nodes is performed stepwise until a final core network node (CN2) is reached which is connectable to the second access node (RNC2). The final core network node (CN2) initializes the connection (Co) to the second access node (RNC2) according to said protocol and the second access node (RNC2) stores the parameter set. A core network node and a program unit embodying the invention are also described.

Systems and methods for describing imaging tasks across a distributed environment of imaging clients, servers and devices, wherein the tasks include complex imaging operations, and interchanging imaging data and operations. The imaging jobs include diverse imaging tasks that can be constructed in a single program unit. The imaging tasks are constructed using a single imaging job language and common interface across all imaging devices, clients and servers, or managers thereof. A manager communicates with the imaging components through the common interface and translates the operations into the communication methods that are compatible with the devices, clients and servers. Composite imaging jobs are selectively dispatched to diverse imaging components through a single imaging spooler subsystem. Further, distribution may occur across various imaging devices, clients and/or servers, such that a first imaging system performs some subset of steps, deletes the executed steps and makes the appropriate substitutions or interchanges and the portion is performed by a second and/or subsequent imaging system.

An automatic distributed partitioning system (ADPS) determines which unit exposes an interface in a framework in which units lack reliable identities. The ADPS detects a reference to an interface. For the interface, the ADPS assures that the unit that exposes the interface is identified. Using unit identities, the ADPS performs operations such as profiling of an application or classifying units of an application. An interface wrapper for the interface stores the identity of the unit that exposes the interface, as well as information about the interface and a reference to instrumentation. When a client unit calls a member function of an interface, the interface wrapper intercepts the call and invokes the instrumentation. The instrumentation performs an operation such as profiling the application or classifying a unit. The ADPS detects when an interface is undocumented, and handles undocumented interfaces without invoking the full instrumentation capabilities of the ADPS. When the ADPS detects an undocumented interface, the ADPS notes a pair-wise location constraint for the units that communicate across the undocumented interface.
