  • Persisting data across warm boots
    Patent number: 9104619
    Abstract: Techniques for persisting data stored in volatile memory across a warm boot. One or more portions (referred to as “warm memory”) of volatile memory of the system can be reserved and configured such that the data stored by these portions is not affected by a warm boot thereby resulting in the data stored being persisted across a warm boot.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 23, 2010
    Date of Patent: August 11, 2015
    Assignee: Brocade Communications Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Bill Ying Chin, Ilya Ratner, Tushar Desai, Surendranadh Madineni, William R. Mahoney

  • Adaptive scheduling system and method for operating a biological sample analyzer with variable interval periods
    Patent number: 5576215
    Abstract: An improved biological sample analyzer, and a method and system for operation thereof, wherein instrument systems used to perform assays of the biological samples loaded into the analyzer are operated in accordance with a schedule developed by a scheduler routine. The scheduler routine determines interval periods between operations performed by the analyzer instrument systems on each biological sample as a function of an entered load list unless a fixed interval period between the operations is required and schedules instrument system operations and the determined interval periods. The biological system analyzer performs assays of the biological samples by operating the analyzer instrument systems in accordance with the developed schedule.

  • Adaptive scheduling system and method for a biological analyzer with reproducible operation time periods
    Patent number: 5282149
    Abstract: A biological sample analyzer, and a method and system for operation thereof, wherein instrument systems used to perform an assay of each of the biological samples loaded into the analyzer are operated in accordance with a schedule developed by a scheduler routine. The scheduler routine determines a time allowance for performing operations by instrument systems for conducting an assay on each biological sample from a load list indicating the type of assay to be conducted upon each biological sample. The time allowance determined is adapted to accommodate variations in actual performance of instrument system operations on each sample so that the assays of the biological samples can be performed by the instrument system operations in accordance with a reliable and reproducible schedule.
