Abstract: A method to dynamically alter the availability or characteristics of specified system resources (e.g. interprocess communications facilities or tuning variables that control operating efficiency) is described. The inventive method is unique in that it allows the modification of system resources without the need to rebuild and re-initialized (i.e., reboot) the operating system. If required by the specific alteration being performed, creation of new kernel control structures may require that one or more of a kernel's static-type data structures be converted to dynamic-type data structures.

Abstract: A method for maintaining the integrity of ties and their associated tie groups in a CPU-based, layered communications subsystem in which the connection endpoints in each layer are denoted by a connection control block (CCB), the relationship between CCBs being denoted by ties. Ties and their CCBs can be mapped onto an edge-oriented graph of tie group relations. The arbitrary removal of an edge (tie) in the graph compromises graph integrity by possible formation of unenumerated subgraphs or independent graphs.The solution involves enumerating those edges having vertices which no longer reference CCBs within the tie group, removing them, and forming a second tie group. The enumeration is conducted over a Eulerian traverse of the remaining n edges of the graph. A Eulerian traverse of a graph is one which traverses each edge exactly once. Such a traverse reduces the number of comparisons M to a range N<M<O(N.sup.2).
