  • Error processing across multiple initiator network
    Patent number: 7779308
    Abstract: An architecture for error log processing is provided. Each error log is given a defined priority and mapped to an error recovery procedure (ERP) to be run if the log is seen. The system has a plurality of software layers to process the errors. Each software layer processes the error independently. Errors are reported to a higher software stack when error recovery fails from the lower stack ERPs and recovery is non-transparent. If the system host identified for error processing fails, the control of the ERP is transferred during the failover process. Non-obvious failed component isolating ERPs are grouped to be run together to assist in isolating the failed component. Prioritization of the error systems may be based on a plurality of criteria. ERPs are assigned to run within a particular software stack.

  • System and method for creating interactive content at multiple points in the television prodction process
    Publication number: 20030193518
    Abstract: A system and method for producing content for episodes of an interactive program that allows content creation during script writing and editing, film editing, after film editing, and in live production, and for content production, responsive to inputs from script writing software and non-linear editing software as well as direct user inputs, for storing content, presentation, and behavior information using an XML schema.
