  • Model based network communications
    Patent number: 8200849
    Abstract: In an implementation, a model executing at a target device may use networking services integrated within the model instead of using networking services of the operating system kernel. Latency and non-deterministic behavior associated with using networking services of the operating system kernel may be reduced. Computer-readable media may include instructions for compiling a model, that represents a design, for execution on a target computing device, the compiled model including one or more software components for directly communicating with a network adapter on the target computing device to handle network communications. The computer-readable media may additionally include instructions for transmitting the compiled model to the target computing device, the model, when executed, providing control over network communications at the target computing device.

  • Scoring documents in a linked database
    Patent number: 8195651
    Abstract: A method assigns importance ranks to nodes in a linked database, such as any database of documents containing citations, the world wide web or any other hypermedia database. The rank assigned to a document is calculated from the ranks of documents citing it. In addition, the rank of a document is calculated from a constant representing the probability that a browser through the database will randomly jump to the document. The method is particularly useful in enhancing the performance of search engine results for hypermedia databases, such as the world wide web, whose documents have a large variation in quality.

  • Prediction of human ratings or rankings of information retrieval quality
    Patent number: 8195654
    Abstract: A statistical model may be created that relates human ratings of documents to objective signals generated from the documents, search queries, and/or other information (e.g., query logs). The model can then be used to predict human ratings/rankings for new documents/search query pairs. These predicted ratings can be used to, for example, refine rankings from a search engine or assist in evaluating or monitoring the efficacy of a search engine system.

  • Pipeline scheduler with fairness and minimum bandwidth guarantee
    Patent number: 8189597
    Abstract: A pipeline scheduler provides a minimum bandwidth guarantee by transporting cells from an input port to an output port in a two-phased approach. Cells that conform to a minimum cell rate (MCR) are selected from queues at the input port and arranged into supercells for transport to the output port, followed by nonconforming cells, to guarantee fairness by using scheduling modules to build the supercells first for conforming cells, and then for nonconforming cells. Reservation vectors are used to permit the same time slot of the next frame to be reserved by a first queue, and the same time slot of the following time frame to be held for reservation by a second queue, to ensure equal time slot access by the first and second queues over successive time frames.

  • Separation of data and control in a switching device
    Patent number: 8189605
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for switching a data packet between a source and destination in a network. The data packet includes a header portion and a data portion. The header portion includes routing information for the data packet. The method includes defining a data path in the router comprising a path through the router along which the data portion of the data packet travels and defining a control path comprising a path through the router along which routing information from the header portion travels. The method includes separating the data path and control path in the router such that the routing information can be separated from the data portion allowing for the separate processing of each in the router. The data portion can be stored in a global memory while routing decisions are made on the routing information in the control path.

  • Thin client graphical presentation and manipulation application
    Patent number: 8190400
    Abstract: A distributed graphical presentation and manipulation application executes as a thin client application in a network. The networked graphical presentation and manipulation application can generally be used without requiring a user to install any specific software prior to using the application. In one embodiment, code may be received from a server via the network. A local environment may be generated based on the code, where the local environment may be configured to display a view of a graphical model. A request to manipulate the view may be received within the local environment. A request for a manipulated view may be transmitted to the server based on the received request. The manipulated view may be received from the server. The received manipulated view may be displayed within the local environment.
