Method to reduce queue synchronization of multiple work items in a system with high memory latency between processing nodes

InactiveUS20110161976A1High access latencyEfficient dispatch/completionResource allocationProgram synchronisationParallel computingEngineering
A method efficiently dispatches / completes a work element within a multi-node, data processing system that has a global command queue (GCQ) and at least one high latency node. The method comprises: at the high latency processor node, work scheduling logic establishing a local command / work queue (LCQ) in which multiple work items for execution by local processing units can be staged prior to execution; a first local processing unit retrieving via a work request a larger chunk size of work than can be completed in a normal work completion / execution cycle by the local processing unit; storing the larger chunk size of work retrieved in a local command / work queue (LCQ); enabling the first local processing unit to locally schedule and complete portions of the work stored within the LCQ; and transmitting a next work request to the GCQ only when all the work within the LCQ has been dispatched by the local processing units.

Automated auction method for staffing work shifts

A procedure is provided by which a worker is able to alter his or her work schedule using a computer system. The worker accesses work shift positions that have been designated as being alterable and chooses one as a selected work shift position. That selection may also specify a wage at the worker is willing to be compensated for staffing the selected work shift position. The computer system determines whether the worker is qualified to perform the tasks associated with the selected work shift position.

Wind turbine maintenance optimizer

A service planning engine may predict the future wind speed at a wind farm as well as the future price of energy of the utility grid coupled to the wind turbines. Based on the predicted values, the service planning engine identifies times to perform maintenance when lost revenue is minimized—e.g., when the predicted price of energy is low. Furthermore, the service planning engine may calculate a service priority associated with the turbine to determine when to perform service. The service priority may be based on a status signal associated with the component to be serviced or the time window stipulated in the service contract for performing the maintenance. In one embodiment, the service planning engine also considers resource constraints such as labor costs (e.g., work schedules, overtime costs, availability of technicians with certain skills, availability of components, shipping costs, and the like).

InactiveUS20160292596A1Easy to achieveFacilitate maximizing environmental sustainability goalWeb data indexingReservationsProgram planningUniform resource locator
Methods and systems for scheduling a shared ride among commuters are disclosed. A shared ride may be created by first receiving a destination area and ride input factors from a rideshare subscribed entity, then generating a unique URL associated with the destination area. The unique URL is then transmitted to potential commuters. Users who access the URL input their commuter registration information, which may include commuter travel information, work schedule, home address, and whether the commuter currently drives or carpools to a destination location. A rideshare group is formed by applying a group formation algorithm with the processor to the commuter registration information, the destination area, and the at least one ride input factor to generate an output representing identity information for the rideshare group of commuters, at which point a shared ride is scheduled.
