Patent number: 8745435Abstract: A computer-implemented method for detecting alarm conditions, the method involving receiving at a first time a trigger notification describing a monitored occurrence on a network; setting a redundancy window to begin at the first time and to end at an expiration time; designating a first alarm condition to represent the trigger notification; receiving a second notification at a second time after the first time, the second notification describing the monitored occurrence; and determining whether a second alarm condition exists by testing whether the second time is within the redundancy window.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2013Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: CA, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence A. Stabile, Mark W. Sylor, Thomas Allen LaRosa, Bradley S. Carey, David William Russo, Kevin M. Jackson, Albert Briner, Jeremiah David Small, Matthew Eric Baddeley

Patent number: 8448012Abstract: The network fault manager described herein may include one or more processors configured to detect alarms. For example, the one or more processors may periodically sample rates at which similar events that relate to occurrences on a network arrive, compare the periodically sampled rates to a first threshold, and determine whether a preexisting alarm exists. In response to a number of the periodically sampled rates that exceeded the first threshold within a preceding time window exceeding a second threshold and the preexisting alarm not existing, the one or more processors may assert a first alarm. Otherwise, if the number of periodically sampled rates that exceeded the first threshold within the preceding time window exceeds the second threshold but the preexisting alarm does exist, the one or more processors may maintain the preexisting alarm for a predetermined time period.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2011Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: CA, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence A. Stabile, Mark W. Sylor, Thomas Allen LaRosa, Bradley S. Carey, David William Russo, Kevin M. Jackson, Albert Briner, Jeremiah David Small, Matthew Eric Baddeley

Patent number: 8015456Abstract: The network fault manager described herein may generate an alarm data table having various columns and rows respectively corresponding to different alarm data fields and different alarms. The alarm data table may be associated with a primary key that includes a subset of the different data fields in the multiple columns to uniquely represent the different alarms in the multiple rows. In response to removing one or more of the different alarm data fields in the subset from the primary key, the primary key may non-uniquely represent the different alarms in a plurality of the multiple rows. Thus, the alarm data table may be collapsed to combine the different alarms non-uniquely represented in the plurality of the multiple rows into one combined row uniquely representing the different alarms, whereby the collapsed alarm data table may replace the plurality of the multiple rows with the combined row.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2008Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: Computer Associates Think, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence A.

Patent number: 7359362Abstract: A wireless device is coupled to a multi-sector antenna that includes a plurality of different sectors, any of which can be activated to transmit and receive in a desired direction specific to that sector. Optionally, an omnidirectional antenna is included for initially establishing a wireless connection with another wireless device, such as an access point. A parameter indicative of signal quality, such as throughput or received signal strength indication (RSSI) is determined by polling with each antenna sector to establish a prioritized candidate list. If a receive Trigger becomes active in response to a parameter falling below a threshold level, a new candidate sector is selected from the current list based upon a next-best signal quality. The directionality of the multi-sector antenna provides a substantially higher data rate compared to that of the conventional omnidirectional antenna.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2005Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Wayne G.

Patent number: 6487259Abstract: The partially-parallel trellis decoder with equalizer (360) uses multiple channel estimators (377, 379) but less than one independent channel estimator for each state. The state information set from the state with the best state metric as computed during the previous time period is used to update a primary channel estimator (377), and a state information set from the state with the second best state metric as computed during the previous time period is used to update a secondary channel estimator (379). Each updated channel estimator (377, 379) processes the corresponding state information set to calculate the possible transmitted symbols and their associated state metrics. Because there are fewer channel estimators than states, any unassigned states are processed using the primary channel estimator (377) but do not update the primary channel estimator (377).Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 1999Date of Patent: November 26, 2002Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventor: David William Russo

Patent number: 5765113Abstract: A subscriber terminal (104) suitable for operation in a wireless communications system (100) arranged and constructed to provide data communications between the infrastructure (111) and the subscriber terminal, includes a portable computing device (105) operating in a operating state and a radio frequency receiver (201) operatively coupled to the portable computing device, the radio frequency receiver arranged to detect a radio frequency interference corresponding to an operating environment, and to execute a corrective action that corresponds to the radio frequency interference. A corresponding method of avoiding desensitization of the radio frequency receiver includes detecting, at the RF receiver, a radio frequency interference that corresponds to an operating environment to provide an interference indication; determining, responsive to the interference indication, a corrective action for the RF receiver; and executing the corrective action for the RF receiver.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 1994Date of Patent: June 9, 1998Inventors: David William Russo, Thomas Wayne Lockhart, Geoffrey Richard Scotton, Andrew Scott Lundholm, Donald Edmund Koss
