  • Patent number: 8369210
    Abstract: A technique and system are provided for executing retry procedures to resolve a packet connection failure during a CDMA 1xRTT packet session. In particular, the DTE is configured and controlled to retry based on either failure signals from the NAD or the Application Service Timer. Moreover, in one aspect, the DIE is configured and controlled to retry the packet connection selectively for traffic channel assignment failure, PPP connection failure, TCP/IP connection failure and Application service failure. In this way, the end user will experience a shorter service delivery time for packet-based telematics services.

  • Publication number: 20120233295
    Abstract: A mechanism for declarative service domain federation uses a declarative approach to both the visibility aspect and the management aspect of service domain federation. Instead of manually exporting services, that is, selecting individual services from source domains to be visible in the target domain, using the present system, a federation architect uses a federation console to specify federation intent. The federation intent may include federation rule, query-based service group, and quality-of-service (QoS) policy. Based on the declared federation intent, a planning engine resolves the individual services based on the group query, generates the service visibility configuration, and creates the necessary service proxies and/or mediation objects to satisfy the goal. At runtime, a service monitor collects the performance metrics of federated services and dynamically adjusts the mediation/proxy configurations to maintain the QoS objectives specified by the federation architect.

  • Patent number: 8250185
    Abstract: A method, device, and computer program product are provided for automatically generating connectivity configuration between domains by a device. A rule is received by the device. The rule is read by the device to determine a first domain invoking a service, a second domain having the service, and connectivity requirements for the first and second domains.

  • Patent number: 8121877
    Abstract: A policy-driven approach to Business Performance Management (BPM) evolution is to capture the mechanism of BPM solution evolutions. These policies are executed by the runtime infrastructure which transforms and interprets evolution policies and allows fine granularity controls on solution evolution. At transformation time, the relationship among the event processing progress and the runtime state is derived based on the observation model. Such relationship information allows verification of freshness of migrating data and parallelization of runtime state validation and event processing. Consistent and efficient evolution of BPM solutions transit while event processing is operational.

  • Publication number: 20110264636
    Abstract: A method, information processing system, and computer readable medium for modifying at least one data warehouse schema based on detected changes in an associated observation model are disclosed. The method includes determining if at least one new observation model has been created. The method also includes determining if at least one existing observation model is associated with the new observation model. In response to the existing observation model being associated with the new observation model, at least one changed attribute is identified by comparing the new observation model and the existing observation model. A set of files associated with the existing observation model is updated to reflect the changed attribute between the new observation model and the existing observation model.

  • Publication number: 20110125921
    Abstract: Techniques for transmitting data according to at least one quality of service requirement. A message path is calculated specifying a sequence of broker computers selected from a network of interconnected broker computers. The message path is statistically estimated to fulfill the at least one quality of service requirement. Quality of service metrics are received about the network of interconnected broker computers. If the message path is determined not to fulfill the quality of service requirement, a new message path is calculated specifying a new sequence of broker computers selected from the network of interconnected broker computers. The new message path is statistically estimated to fulfill the at least one quality of service requirement.
