Patent number: 7231457Abstract: A system and method are provided for exchanging data at irregular intervals between a sender and a receiver. The sender transmits to the receiver reports containing subject data along with information regarding the next interval at which subject data will be transmitted to the receiver. The receiver may create an expectation window corresponding to the interval information. In a network environment, the level of non-management traffic is monitored, and an average interval value for exchanging management data is selected as a function of the level of non-management traffic. Then, interval values are randomly generated based on the selected average interval value, and the management data is transmitted from the sender to the receiver at irregular intervals corresponding to the interval values.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2004Date of Patent: June 12, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Paul B. Darcy, Steven A. DeLuca

Patent number: 5848270Abstract: A system and method for modeling the size of a computer system. In one embodiment, the present invention receives selected workload information which indicates the expected performance requirements for a desired computer system. The present invention calculates the busy time and a utilization percentage for a central processing unit which is subjected to the selected workload. The present invention also calculates the minimum amount of memory and the mass storage requirements for a modeled computer system subjected to the selected workload and wherein the modeled computer system is equipped with the aforementioned central processing unit. In so doing, the present invention indicates the processor, memory, and mass storage requirements for a computer system without requiring that the computer system actually be constructed and tested.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 1996Date of Patent: December 8, 1998Assignee: Oracle CorporationInventors: Steven A.
