  • Publication number: 20100218171
    Abstract: A computer executing a software process is monitored by a monitor engine that is coupled to one or more buses in the monitored computer and can be installed in the monitored computer or be separate. Software that is to be monitored is certified, i.e., its nominal “normal” operating parameters are determined. Thus, each certified software system running on the monitored computer will have one or more certificates or set points associated with it. An analytical component of the monitoring engine manages the set of certificates for each execution process on the monitored computer. The executing process is monitored by the analytical component and compared against the associated certificate for that process. At any point where the software process begins to diverge from its operational certificate, the analytical component will notify a final control element, or adaptive engine, which can terminate the process or attempt to correct the anomaly.

  • Patent number: 6856340
    Abstract: A method of clocking a video processing circuit is performed by stalling a reference clock signal. The reference clock signal is stalled based on a stall signal from a clock-independent pulse width modulator. The stalled reference clock signal is used to produce a video clock signal for use by an image data processing circuit.
