Patent number: 7904538Abstract: A performance manager and method for managing the performance of a computer system based on a system model that includes measured entities representing the operational characteristics of the system components and relationships among the measured entities. The performance manager includes data producers for interacting with the interface agents of the components, an engine for exchanging information with the data producers and the system model, and an interaction model for determining relevant measured entities in the system model. The system model and interaction model are maintained in a repository where data might be accessed via an access interface. Incoming performance data is analyzed by an analyzer in the background to detect trends and relationships among the entities. An operator might review the relevant entities and apply controls to selected entities to manage the overall system performance as well as to resolve problems affecting the performance of the components in the system.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2008Date of Patent: March 8, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: David Darden Chambliss, Prashant Pandey, Eric Joseph Wood, Peter Clayton Belknap, Leonard Chi Chiu Chung

Publication number: 20080224614Abstract: An arc tube mounting assembly (1) for a metal halide arc lamp (10) includes frame members (8, 9) for supporting an arc tube (2). The arc tube (2) is supported from above by a looped frame member (8) having a loop (8A) which extends along opposing sides, and across top and base ends (2A, 2B) of the arc tube (2), thus evenly distributing the current to discharge electrode 7, thereby cancelling magnetic forces which could displace the arc from the center of the arc tube (2), resulting in improved lumen maintenance and extended life. A centering circle (8B) of the frame member (8) wraps around the lower ceramic end plug (4), providing coaxial alignment of the arc tube (2) and the tubular outer envelope (11).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2006Publication date: September 18, 2008Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS, N.V.Inventors: Joseph Woods, John Bailey, Joseph Carbone

Publication number: 20060003709Abstract: A case is provided to protect a mobile terminal. The case includes a housing, typically formed of a waterproof material to prevent the incursion of water or other contaminants. The housing may include two portions with a gasket therebetween to create a hermetic seal. As such, the case and the mobile terminal may be buoyant. The housing may carry input component(s) for receiving user input and/or output component(s) for providing user output. The housing also carries a signal processor which converts any user input to signals that the mobile terminal is capable of processing. Similarly, the signal processor may convert any signals received by the mobile terminal to signals that the output component is capable of processing. The input, output, and signal processing components may be removable from the housing while still being capable of communicating with the mobile terminal so as to be used as a headset.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2004Publication date: January 5, 2006Inventor: Joseph Wood
