  • Patent number: 11797335
    Abstract: Utility programs run on multiple mainframes to periodically monitor a list of started tasks that have been defined in metadata files as running on each mainframe. Some of the utility programs is largely driven by metadata, and filters programmed to manage an output stream for each started task, as the output stream is generated, while remaining agnostic as to an origin of the output stream. When problems are detected in the output stream, users are notified via alerts, along with a suggestion of what to do. This batch dashboard application can be used by anyone with mainframe started tasks that need to be monitored. Once alerted to a problem, the users can logon to the online dashboard for that same list of started tasks and take actions to research and fix the problems.

  • Patent number: 11765074
    Abstract: A network interface controller (NIC) capable of hybrid message matching is provided. The NIC can be equipped with a host interface, a hardware endpoint, and an endpoint management logic block. The host interface can couple the NIC to a host device. The hardware endpoint can facilitate a point of communication for an application running on the host device. The endpoint management logic block can maintain a list for storing a message associated with an endpoint represented by the hardware endpoint. The endpoint management logic block can then determine whether the utilization of the list is higher than a threshold. If the utilization is higher than the threshold, the endpoint management logic block can set a state of the endpoint to indicate that the endpoint is software managed. The NIC thus can transfer the control of the endpoint from the hardware endpoint to a software process of the host device.

  • Patent number: 11727166
    Abstract: A design analysis engine analyzes a CAD assembly to generate a topological model. The topological model is a graph of nodes coupled together via a set of edges. Each node represents a different CAD model in the CAD assembly and each edge represents a different connection between two such CAD models. The design analysis engine also analyzes the CAD assembly to generate a data model corresponding to the topological model. The data model is a structured dataset that includes component entries and connection entries. A component entry includes design data associated with a CAD model in the CAD assembly and a connection entry includes design data associated with a physical or logical connection between two or more such CAD models. A user interacts with the topological model to navigate the CAD assembly, obtain CAD model data, and initiate automatically-performed design tasks.
