  • System and method for aggregating user project information in a multi-server system
    Patent number: 6904439
    Abstract: A system for aggregating user information on a plurality of projects and servers includes a project catalog; a project catalog server; a plurality of project servers; a plurality of project databases; a project database being associated with each project server; an entry in the project catalog for each project server and each project database; and a my projects procedure responsive to user entry of a my projects request for accessing the project catalog server to obtain markup language representations of entries in the project catalog for the user for display at a terminal.

  • Server for executing client operation calls, having a dispatcher, worker tasks, dispatcher shared memory area and worker control block with a task memory for each worker task and dispatcher/worker task semaphore communication
    Patent number: 5617570
    Abstract: A server for executing operation calls by a client, including a dispatcher, a plurality of worker tasks, and a dispatcher shared memory area and worker control block for each worker task. Each operation call provided from a client is a sequence or one or more remote procedure call requests and each includes a packed buffer containing parameters. The dispatcher receives a buffer directly into the dispatcher shared memory space of the worker task selected to execute the remote procedure call request, sets the semaphore and sends a request acceptance response. The selected worker task unpacks the buffer into its memory space, executes the request, places the results into a packed buffer in its dispatcher shared memory area and sends a remote procedure call to the dispatcher. The dispatcher executes a remote procedure call to the client and sends the result buffer directly from the shared memory area.
