Patents by Inventor Tierney Bruce McCaughrin

Tierney Bruce McCaughrin has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10733026
    Abstract: A job submission technique includes a set of algorithms that provide automated workload selection to a batch processing system that has the ability to receive and run jobs on various computing resources simultaneously. The job submission technique provides for organizing workloads, assigning relative ratios between workloads, associating arbitrary workload validation algorithms with a workload or parent workload, associating arbitrary selection algorithms with a workload or workload group, defining high priority workloads that preserve fairness, and balancing the workload selection based on a current status of the batch system, validation status, and the workload ratios.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 27, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 4, 2020
    Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION

  • Patent number: 9965333
    Abstract: A job submission method that presents a set of algorithms that provide automated workload selection to a batch processing system that has the ability to receive and run jobs on various computing resources simultaneously is provided. If all machines in the batch system are running jobs, a queue containing the extra jobs for execution results. For compute intensive workloads, such as chip design, an automated workload selection system software layer submits jobs to the batch processing system. This keeps the batch processing system continually full of useful work The job submission system provides for organizing workloads, assigning relative ratios between workloads, associating arbitrary workload validation algorithms with a workload or parent workload, associating arbitrary selection algorithms with a workload or workload group, defining high priority workloads that preserve fairness and balancing the workload selection based on current status of the batch system, validation status, and the workload ratios.
