  • Patent number: 8918509
    Abstract: A device determines a portion of data generated by a technical computing environment (TCE) program, where the portion of the data is determined based on an initial availability of a resource of a server device. The device provides the portion of the data to the server device for execution, and receives, from the server device, results associated with execution of the portion of the data. The device calculates an availability of the resource based on the results associated with execution of the portion of the data, and provides, to the server device for execution, additional data generated by the TCE program, where the additional data is determined based on the availability of the resource of the server device. The device receives, from the server device, results associated with execution of the additional data, where the receiving is performed by the device.

  • Patent number: 6816504
    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a method of using a bypass buffer in a node coupled to a ringlet includes the steps of: writing a packet of binary digital signals on the ringlet into the bypass buffer; and retaining the packet of binary digital signals in the bypass buffer for a predetermined amount of time before transferring the packet to the ringlet. Briefly, in accordance with another embodiment, a node to be coupled to a ringlet includes: a transmit buffer and a receive buffer. The transmit and receive buffers are coupled in a configuration to transfer binary digital signals between the node and the ringlet via the transmit and receive buffers. The configuration further includes a bypass buffer to temporarily queue binary digital signals passing through the node. The bypass buffer is further coupled in the configuration to retain a packet of binary digital signals for a predetermined amount of time before transferring the packet to the ringlet.
