Philip J. Brisky has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8086834
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a processor, a memory device coupled to the processor, and a dedicated system service repository (DSSR) coupled to the processor. The DSSR is configured to store a base image that includes a plurality of partitions and a first system configuration image, wherein the first system configuration image is stored in a first partition of the plurality of partitions, wherein the first system configuration image is configured to provide in-band and/or out-of-band managed access to the DSSR when executed; and by accessing the first system configuration image, the DSSR is populated with a second system configuration image, wherein the second system configuration image is stored in a second partition of the plurality of partitions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 16, 2009
    Date of Patent: December 27, 2011
    Assignee: Dell Products L.P.
    Inventors: Philip J. Brisky, Mahesh Kalambi, Fritz A. Kocher, Terry Wayne Liles, Chi Nguyen, Weijia Zhang, Abhay Arjun Salunke

  • Patent number: 6557115
    Abstract: The real-time test controller maintains a failure database containing a history of past failures for devices under test and selectively sorts the history for the device to be tested. The diagnostic testing sequence is then rearranged with tests having higher failure rates being conducted first. If faults are detected, a message is provided to the operator and the failure database is either manually or automatically updated with the latest fault information. In this manner, a continuously updated history of faults is maintained and the most efficient testing sequence is followed, resulting in significant time and cost savings.
