  • Patent number: 10397122
    Abstract: A technique for managing a data network includes monitoring data transfer rates and data transfer thresholds for data transferred between storage and an application. Feedback on the suitability of the data transfer rate is collected from the application. A data transfer threshold for the application is changed based on the monitored data transfer rate and the collected feedback.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9710564
    Abstract: A system and computer program product are provided for providing location and spatial data about the physical environment. The system is configured to sense a tag provided in the environment by a mobile device; receive data from the tag at the mobile device, the data including location and spatial data relating to the physical environment of the tag; and represent the location and spatial data from the tag by the mobile device. In one embodiment, sensing a tag may include sensing a tag in the form of a machine-readable symbol; and receiving data from the tag receives data by processing an image of the machine-readable symbol by the mobile device. In another embodiment, sensing a tag includes sensing a tag in the form of a transmitter device; and receiving data from the tag receives data by receiving a signal by the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 9558088
    Abstract: Method and system are provided for using environmental signatures for test scheduling. The method includes: generating an environmental signature for a test including the usage of power and temperature of one or more hardware components being tested; determining an outcome score of the test; and scheduling one or more tests on hardware components based on the environmental signature and outcome score of candidate tests. Generating an environmental signature for a test may include: monitoring the usage of power by hardware components during the course of the test; monitoring the temperature of hardware components during the course of the test; generating a signature representing the power usage and temperature during the test. Determining an outcome score of the test may include determining the number of defects exposed by a test and basing the outcome score on the number of defects exposed.
