  • Patent number: 7552191
    Abstract: A method and system of automatic share allocation in a shared resource environment. Upon connection of a device to a server, the server identifies if the device is a known device. The server then applies a share allocation previously established if the device is a known device and automatically creates a share allocation for the device if the device is not a known device.

  • Patent number: 7099943
    Abstract: A method is described that can be used to regulate the usage of resources in a network system. A software tool can be used to regulate access to a system resource. The preferred method uses a software tool to enforce voluntary restraint on the uses of resources by competing processes. Further, the software tool can be used to request additional usage time for more important or sensitive processes requesting a specific resource. The preferred method can be used with a general computing environment or in an embedded system.
