  • Patent number: 11727118
    Abstract: A testing device includes a first interface device configured to enable communication with a first component of a vehicle and a second interface device configured to enable communication with a second component of the vehicle. The testing device includes a test module storage configured to store one or more test modules and also includes a user interface and a test controller. The test controller is responsive to the user interface to select a test module from the test module storage and to cause the first interface device to communicate first test data to the first component of the vehicle and to cause the second interface device to communicate second test data to the second component of the vehicle to perform a vulnerability test associated with the selected test module.

  • Publication number: 20070266372
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for generating documentation of a customized execution of a task of a process are disclosed. A documentation program is associated with the task. When the task is executed, an execution time of the task execution is detected, which triggers an execution of the documentation program. In the case that a process includes multiple tasks, documentation of the multiple tasks is generated in an order based on the detected execution times of the multiple tasks within the process.

  • Publication number: 20060075336
    Abstract: An improved solution for providing content over a network is described. In particular, a tag is inserted into display content indicating slow-loading data that is to be incorporated. When the display content is requested, a placeholder is inserted into the display content in place of the tag and the display content is provided for display at a client. Subsequently, the slow-loading data can be obtained and incorporated into the display content, which can be provided for display at the client.

  • Publication number: 20050131995
    Abstract: The present invention is a system, method and apparatus for selecting a cache memory allocation to provide an optimized target cache hit rate in a caching component of a content delivery system. The method of the invention can include identifying a current cache size and a contemporaneously experienced trace footprint. A hit rate produced in response to the current cache size and the contemporaneously experienced trace footprint can be determined and a Zipf alpha coefficient can be computed for the current cache size, trace footprint and hit rate. An optimal hit rate can be selected and an optimal cache size for the Zipf alpha coefficient, trace footprint and optimal hit rate can be computed in consequence. Once the optimal cache size has been computed, the cache memory allocation can be modified based upon the optimal cache size.
