Publication number: 20140373018Abstract: A method dynamically adjusts a log level of a transaction. The method includes: buffering the most detailed logs of a transaction having highest log level into a memory; checking if all dependency-defined transactions within a dependency list/tree for the transaction are completed; and, in response to the completion of all dependency-defined transactions within the dependency list/tree for the transaction, obtaining a log filter level for the transaction in association with the transaction results (success/failure) of dependency-defined transactions, wherein the log filter level is a new log level for the transaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2014Publication date: December 18, 2014Inventors: Jeffrey Ch Liu, Chih-Wen Su, Ivan Nestlerode, Johnson Ys Chang, Gian HM Tu

Publication number: 20140297591Abstract: Providing efficient data replication for a transaction processing server is provided. A notification is received from the transaction processing server which completes a transaction of a message. The notification includes a message digest and a message identifier. The message identifier in the received notification is compared with a stored message identifier. In response to a match of the comparing of the message identifier, the message digest in the received notification is compared with a stored message digest. In response to a match of the comparing of the message digest, a stored input message is directly stored in a physical storage.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Johnson YS Chiang, Jeffrey CH Liu, Chih-Wen Su, Ying-Kai Wang

Patent number: 8719351Abstract: A system and method automatically rescales an electronic message having one or more associated content. When the electronic message is generated and the associated content connected to the message, an agent of the electronic message application checks predefined settings/configurations of the message client. The sender's e-mail client checks a plurality of conditions, such as, the condition of the network, the type of network, the status or capacity of the receiving inbox of an intended recipient client, and the geographic destination of the message. Based on these dynamic content rescale settings, the sender's client dynamically and optimally rescales the associated content before forwarding the electronic message with the rescaled content to the recipient client. Rescaling of the associated content may be performed by the message exchange server or the recipient client. The recipient client may later request and receive a copy of the associated content without rescaling.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2009Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Danny Yen-Fu Chen, Ta-Wei Lin, Chih-Wen Su, Meng Li Wong

Publication number: 20080018601Abstract: The cursor-controlling mechanism includes a beam splitter, a light source, an image sensor and a mouse ball. The light source is positioned beside one side of the beam splitter, and the image sensor is positioned above the beam splitter. The mouse ball is rotatably positioned beside the other side of the beam splitter. The light source emits light beam at the beam splitter, and the light beam is divided into two sub-beams by the beam splitter. One sub-beam maintains original optical path toward the mouse ball and hits the mouse ball. The other sub-beam is directed downwardly to hit a worktable. The image sensor detects surface beneath the cursor-controlling mechanism and obtains image. By position of the mouse ball and surface beneath the cursor-controlling mechanism, the cursor-controlling mechanism has the functionality of mouse and trackball.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2007Publication date: January 24, 2008Inventor: Chih-Wen Su
