Abstract: A method for providing a dedicated software framework for exception and event management in an embedded software system is disclosed. In one embodiment, each of exceptions/events originated from users are uniquely identified and severity of the exceptions/events is categorized. The users are software subsystems, software layers and software modules in the embedded software system. Further, information regarding the exceptions/events is reported through various layers, subsystems and modules for use by an application. Furthermore, information associated with one or more of the reported exceptions/events is logged using a logging framework. In addition, the exceptions/events are handled to keep applications running without causing an unexpected behavior in the embedded software system.

Abstract: A method of hosting a first application (e.g., a virtual application) inside a second application (e.g., a control displayed by a web browser). The method includes executing the first application inside a runtime environment generated at least in part by a runtime engine. The executing first application calls user interface functions that when executed inside the runtime environment generate a first user interface. The runtime engine captures these calls, generates messages comprising information associated with the captured calls, and forwards the messages to a user interface manager that is a separate application from the runtime engine. The user interface manager receives the messages, translates the information associated with the captured calls into instructions for the second application, and sends the instructions to the second application. The control receives the instructions sent by the user interface manager, and displays a second user interface for the first application based on the instructions.

Abstract: An event notification method for distributed processing systems provides reduction of queue space and event processing bandwidth associated with duplicate events such as a particular event that is duplicated and results in multiple event notifications propagated for multiple consumers. When a duplicate event notification is received at an input to an event notification queue, rather than queuing the duplicate event notification, a sequence number of the event notification already in the queue is updated to indicate to the event consumer, exactly how many duplicate events have been received. The timestamp of the updated event notification may also be set to the timestamp of the most recently received duplicate event notification.

The apparatus also includes logic configured to detect a trigger event; and in response to having detected the trigger event, copy the information related to the performance of the processor respectively in the plurality of first registers into the second register.

Abstract: The present specification provides application integration in networked computing devices. An embodiment includes a mobile computing device having a message application that includes a programming interface. The mobile computing device also has a second message application that creates a connection with the message application through the programming interface.

Abstract: Techniques for tracking large numbers of moving objects in an event processing system are provided. An input event stream can be received, where the events in the input event stream represent the movement of a plurality of geometries or objects. The input event stream can then be partitioned among a number of processing nodes of the event processing system, thereby enabling parallel processing of one or more continuous queries for tracking the objects. The partitioning can be performed such that each processing node is configured to track objects in a predefined spatial region, and the spatial regions for at least two nodes overlap. This overlapping window enables a single node to find, e.g., all of the objects within a particular distance of a target object, even if the target object is in the process of moving from the region of that node to the overlapping region of another node.

Abstract: A system and method for enabling a graphical program to natively access an external memory buffer are disclosed. The graphical program may execute within a graphical program execution environment, and the external memory buffer may be allocated by another program that executes externally from the graphical program and the graphical program execution environment. The graphical program may be executed concurrently with a producer program that stores data in the memory buffer, and/or with a consumer program that reads and uses the data from the memory buffer. The memory buffer may be located within a region of memory allocated by the producer program, by the consumer program, or by another program that executes externally from the graphical program and the graphical program execution environment, such as a memory manager program.

Abstract: A method for providing a real time view of heterogeneous enterprise data of operational systems includes capturing streams of operational events in real time, combining the events with contextual data, and materializing a resulting view. The resulting view includes a dynamically defined view of the stream of events and provides visibility into a current state of the operational system. A view snapshot is continuously incrementally updated by a view maintenance engine as a stream of rows. The views are used to evaluate a business rule. An alert is fired when a business rule holds true. To enable the view in a view engine, a SQL string characterizing the view is parsed into a parse tree, which is normalized to form a query graph. The query graph is then optimized to obtain a query plan, which is compiled into an operator graph. Queries are executed based upon the operator graph.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for target memory pressure event notifications are disclosed. Processes running on a device can register to receive memory pressure event notifications from a memory management system, which are sent while memory pages are being reclaimed. Active processes running on a device processor can be assigned a priority that ranges from low to high. Responsive to a memory pressure event occurring on the device, the memory management system determines whether less than a threshold number of high priority processes are active on the device. If so, the memory management system sends a memory pressure event notification to the registered process with the lowest priority among the active processes.
