Abstract: A method for generating an output data stream from an input data stream, a processing unit receives a first input data stream including a first data set, and this processing unit receives, from a further processing unit, a second set of metadata, which describes a second data set of a second input data stream of this further processing unit, the processing unit outputs or does not output, as a function of the second set of metadata, an output data set of the output data stream generated from the first data set.

Abstract: A processing system is configured to dynamically carry out processes. A method for monitoring the processing system includes steps of determining a number of processes running on the processing system; of determining a maximum expected number of processes; of determining that more processes than expected are running; and of deactivating the processing system.

Abstract: A method/device for configuring at least one execution unit for detecting a state of operation of the one execution unit, the method/device comprising at least assigning a first replica of an item of application software for the purpose of execution on at least one computing core of the execution unit depending on information relating to at least one item of hardware or relating to at least one operating system of the execution unit assigning a second replica of the application software for the purpose of execution on the computing core of the execution unit depending on the information relating to the at least one item of hardware or relating to the operating system of the execution unit.

Abstract: A method for redundant processing of data by at least two processing units is described. After a restart or reset, the first processing unit of the at least two processing units receives first portions of the data for processing from at least one second processing unit of the at least two processing units.

Abstract: A method for checking calculation results in a system including multiple processing units including receiving a data frame from one of the processing units, the data frame includes an application identification and a number of comparison values of the processing unit, the comparison values of the processing unit are sorted into a buffer memory on the basis of the application identification, it is checked whether the buffer memory under the application identification contains the comparison values of all processing units, and if the comparison values are completely present, the comparison values are compared.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing SIP overload control are disclosed. According to one method, a SIP server determines loading status of a resource of the SIP sever. The SIP server computes a rejection probability based on the loading status of the resource of the SIP server. The SIP server rejects received SIP messages based on the message types and the rejection probability.
