Abstract: Accumulation methods for system information (SI) windows are provided. The accumulation method for SI windows may include the following steps. The transceiver of an apparatus may receive an indication from a network node. The processor of the apparatus may determine a set of SI windows in a modification period based on the indication. The processor may perform an accumulation over the SI windows in the set of SI windows.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for handling access to multiple file-systems from a program written in a high-level language such as COBOL, programming language compilers and run-time environments. More specifically, the present invention provides a computer-implemented method for supporting multiple file-systems in file input/output (I/O) operations. As a result, an object program has access to different file-systems without recompilation. Further, the interfaces within the source language are independent of the specified file-system, so that support of any number of different file-systems can be accomplished with relative ease. In addition, the ability to dynamically select a file-system on a file-by-file basis is provided, thereby allowing the program to use a first file-system for one file and a second file-system for another file.
