Abstract: A method of creating and using a hardware independent communication interface block for block diagram environments is disclosed. The communication interface block includes user-selectable parameters controlling how a system being modeled by a block diagram communicates with image and data acquisition devices and control instruments or other electronic device interfaced with an external system. Based on the user selected parameters, the communication interface block calls an appropriate constructor to create an instrument object or acquisition device object which is used to enable communication with the control instrument or acquisition device respectively. The instrument object/acquisition device object calls a software driver appropriate for the hardware interface of the control instrument/acquisition device. The use of a common interface block provides scalability and ease of use to the block diagram environment when interacting with control instruments and acquisition devices.

The medium may include instructions for commencing parallel processing on behalf of the client based on the received request and instructions for sending a query to the client, the query related to the parallel processing. The medium may include instructions for receiving an answer from the client, the answer received when the client has processed the query. The medium may include instructions for generating a result based on the parallel processing, the result used by the client or by another device to perform an operation.

Abstract: A method transfers data from a data source to multiple data sink objects. The data acquired from the data source is encapsulated into a data object. Identification information of the data object is posted to a data server. The data server shares the identification information with the data sink objects that are registered with the data server. The data sink objects access the data object with the identification information at execution time. A counter indicates the number of data sink objects that currently use the data object. The data object is removed from the memory of the computer systems when the counter indicates that the data object is no longer used by the data sink objects. Alternatively, the data object that is no longer used may be stored in a separate memory location of the computer systems for a future use.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments allow a user to create configurations for use in distributed computing environments. Configurations can be arranged in hierarchies in which elements of the hierarchy can inherit characteristics from elements in other layers of the hierarchy. Embodiments also allow a user to flatten a hierarchical configuration to remove hierarchical dependencies and/or inheriting capabilities of elements in the hierarchy. Exemplary embodiments further allow users to deploy a distributed computing configuration on their desktop to evaluate performance of the configuration and then deploy the configuration in a distributed computing environment without having to change programming code run on the desktop/distributed computing environment.

Abstract: A communication system for linking users to control instruments. A user may send a first creation command from a user interface and establish a communication channel linking the command interpreter and the control instrument independent of the interface bus standard or interface hardware driver type. The communication system also includes providing a common communication interface between the user and the control instrument in an array-based programming environment. Embodiments provide a concise and powerful communication system for communicating with control instruments independent of the various types of supported interface bus standards, communication protocols, and driver types.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for dynamic licensing of software products in a distributed system. A job is generated by a master (or client) and the tasks in the job are distributed to a cluster of workers for the distributed execution of the job. The tasks are distributed with information on the software products for which the master is licensed. The workers receive the tasks with the information on the software products for which the master is licensed. The workers dynamically provide licenses for the software products which the master is licensed for. The workers execute the tasks using the dynamically provided licenses for the software products. The results from the execution of the tasks are returned to the client.

Given a specific configuration and/or the number of concurrent computing labs at start up of an executable process, the executable process may be set up for parallel computing environment using local resources and/or remote resources. A configuration is used to store all configuration information so that a one-string configuration may be used. The one-string configuration may be used at start up of an executable process or may be provided as an argument to a function.

The report generator includes a user interface by which a designer can hierarchically assemble the reporting elements, which are defined according to an object-oriented programming language. The report generator bi-directionally communicates with the mathematical computing environment such that the report generator can evaluate expressions defined within the mathematical computing environment, change initial conditions and parameters of a mathematical model, and issue commands to advance the state of the model.

Abstract: A mechanism for the distribution of a test vector for a system test to a parallel computing environment is discussed. A test vector which controls the parameterization of a system test being conducted is provided as an input parameter to a function. In one implementation, the test vector is declared as a distributed array data type. The processing of the input test vector parameter causes the test vector to be distributed to the parallel computing units holding portions of the system under test. The test vector is then used in executing the system test. The results of the execution of the system test using the test vector may then be saved in a distributed array or returned to a client for presentment to a user.
