Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an embedded mechanism for platform vulnerability assessment. In various embodiments, a management component of a managed platform may scan at least one host component of the managed platform for vulnerability of the at least one host component with respect to security policies of a management console of a network. The management component may address potential vulnerability of the at least one host component. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Abstract: In an embodiment, a system and method may manage network resources to provide a near zero-cost background replication of data. Such a system may be inhibited from causing interference with foreground data flows. Such a system may also utilize a large fraction of spare network bandwidth. A system configured to implement such a method may include one or more servers and at least one client in communication via a network. Additionally the system may include a hint server, a monitor and/or a front-end application between a demand server and the network.

Abstract: A method for initializing modems in a multicarrier transmission system to establish a communication link between the transmitter and the receiver. An exemplary embodiment includes the steps of providing a predetermined parameter value that approximates a corresponding actual parameter value of the communication link, establishing a data communication link between a first transceiver and a second transceiver using the predetermined parameter value to allow the transmission of data, determining the actual parameter value, and seamlessly increasing the data rate of the established data communication link by using the determined actual parameter value to provide an steady state communication link with an updated data rate.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for operating digital memory including determining, by a controller, a bit to be written to the digital memory and writing, by the controller, the bit. The bit may be part of a data word comprising a plurality of bits and both the determining and the writing may be performed at a granularity level finer than a data word. In embodiments, the bit to be written may be determined by error correction.

Abstract: An integrated incremental redundancy symbol mapping diversity system for a communication device. The integrated incremental redundancy symbol mapping diversity system includes a transmitter. The transmitter packetizes a retransmission packet according to a modulation scheme in response to a retransmission request from the receiver. The transmitter includes an output packet processor and an inter-packet selective symbol mapper. The output packet processor determines a transmission iteration of a bit segment of the retransmission packet. The inter-packet selective symbol mapper applies a first symbol map pattern to the bit segment based on the transmission iteration of the bit segment and applies a second symbol map pattern to another bit segment of the retransmission packet based on the transmission iteration of the other bit segment. The first symbol map pattern is different from the second symbol map pattern.

Abstract: A memory capable of suppressing increase of a chip area thereof while preventing nonselected subarrays from disturbance is obtained. This memory comprises a first transistor for connecting respective sub bit lines with each other, and connects the sub bit lines of the nonselected subarrays with each other through the first transistor and connects the same to fixed potentials arranged on both ends of a memory cell array at least in a read operation.
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for moving or transferring a mobile station from one type of wireless network to another type of wireless network are described herein. The methods may include employing a source radio access technology (RAT) device, a target RAT device, and a cross wireless network type inter-RAT server to collaboratively communicate with each other to move the mobile station between the different types of wireless networks.
Abstract: In the scaled recovery system of the present invention, clients delay for an additional period of time prior to attempting to access a previously unavailable resource that has since become available, rather than accessing the shared resource at full speed once an initial back off interval is over. Through the continual increment and decrement of client back off intervals, the present invention provides dynamic tuning of overall system load in the case of overloaded shared resources.

Abstract: The invention provides a portable and autonomous assistance device to derive information on faults in a private telecommunication installation comprising particularly equipment units to assist the client owning the installation in maintaining the latter. A maintenance session is selected in a maintenance server of the service provider managing the installation as a function of information transmitted by the assistance device so as to provide instructions in the device. The address of the server and an identifier of the equipment unit are rapidly read by means of a bar code reader which can also read bar codes in a user manual. The assistance device also serves to configure a terminal (TE) by means of a configuration session opened in a server (SFT) of the terminal manufacturer.

Abstract: A method for determining e-mail address formatting rules corresponding to particular domain names, whereby e-mail address data is collected and sorted based on domains. Based on the gathered data for particular domains, a pattern is identified and an e-mail address formatting rule is determined. Format rule information is stored for future use to assist in correcting and directing e-mail messages so that they may be received by their intended recipients. Gathering of e-mail address data occurs by directly gathering e-mail addresses and e-mail address format data directly from entities responsible for the domain or format are derived based on patterns observed in collected address data for particular domains. Data for developing these patterns may be gathered from e-mail address information resident on the Internet, e-mail address information from e-mail address books, or from public e-mail address listings.
