Patent number: 9760587Abstract: A tool for assisting the operation of a network of interconnected physical equipment includes a physical infrastructure manager associated with a first data structure in which the equipment items are registered under a resource identifier in relation to a first sequence of dated values of global utilizable functional capacity, and a virtual infrastructure manager associated with a second data structure in which virtual units are registered under a unit identifier in relation to a second sequence of dated values of global utilizable functional capacity, and with a third data structure in which a virtual unit identifier is associated with a group of resource identifiers and hence with the corresponding sequences of dated capacity values. The virtual infrastructure manager dynamically reconfigures a virtual infrastructure object in accordance with the rights and capacities requested by a user.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2011Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: F5 Networks, Inc.Inventors: Pascale Vicat-Blanc-Primet, Sebastian Soudan, Guilherme Koslovski

Publication number: 20160315817Abstract: A tool for aiding utilization of communicating equipment includes a resources manager associated with a data structure where an equipment identifier is connected with dated values of utilizable global functional capability of the resource, and dated values of temporarily allocated functional capability. A scheduling tool evaluates an acceptance condition by comparing dates which pertain to a dated functional capability and to the dated series of functional capability maintained in connection with one or more resource identifiers. A resources allocator receives an identified request for temporary reservation of functional capabilities, including a dated suite of functional data, it responds thereto by calling a resources selector for each functional data item of the request, the scheduling tool for some at least of the identifiers of the subset returned by the resources selector; and by returning a set of resource identifiers as response to the reservation request.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2016Publication date: October 27, 2016Inventors: Pascale Vicat-Blanc Primet, Guilherme Koslovski

Patent number: 8775616Abstract: A local pre-transfer agent, that can be run on a local computer including RAM, one central processing unit, and one interface communicating with a data exchange network connected to the RAM by a communication bus. The agent includes a first function establishing a first predictive value of the data transmission or reception bandwidth limit from configuration data on the memory, a second function establishing a second predictive value of bandwidth limit from configuration data of the processing unit, a third function establishing a third predictive value of bandwidth limit from bus configuration data, a fourth function establishing a fourth predictive value of bandwidth limit from configuration data of the communication interface, and a hardware diagnostic function invoking each one these functions and establishing, from the resulting predictive values, a bandwidth reference value in accordance with predefined comparison rules for said predictive values.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2010Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Infria Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en AutomatiqueInventors: Pascale Vicat-Blanc Primet, Romaric Guillier

Publication number: 20130132546Abstract: A tool for aiding management of a communicating physical device includes: a device controller operating the physical device using operating parameters; a data storage interlinking an identifier from the physical device and dated values of attributes and a list of control functions capable of modifying some of the operating parameters; an interpreter adapted for receiving a device identifier datum and a time horizon parameter at the same time and for responding thereto by establishing a series of respective events using the information from the data storage, related to the time horizon, each event interlinking a date, one or more identifiers of control functions, and parameters for these functions, established in accordance with a dated attribute value; and a sequencer arranged to call the interpreter and carry out chronologically the calls of the functions of each event of the series as returned by the interpreter.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2011Publication date: May 23, 2013Applicants: Ecole Normale Superieure De Lyon, Inria Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en AutomatiqueInventors: Pascale Vicat-Blanc Primet, Sebastian Soudan
