Patent CA-2494325-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CROWTHER DAVID AARON
IPC: G06F/
Filed: 2003-07-03
Abstract: L'invention concerne un réseau de médias (10) comprenant un système de stockage (16) possédant au moins un dispositif de stockage (18) permettant de stocker des informations numérisées. Un adaptateur de bus hôte (14) fournit une liaison entre le système de stockage et un système hôte (12) fournissant une commande globale du réseau de médias. Dans l'adaptateur du bus hôte, un pilote de port de niveau inférieur (24) surveille des communications entre le système de stockage et l'adaptateur du bus hôte. Dans le cas d'une défaillance des communications, le pilote de port de niveau inférieur entame une commutation à partir d'un port défaillant vers un port alternatif, exécutant ainsi une récupération de basculement. L'attribution de la responsabilité pour la récupération d'un basculement au pilote de port de niveau inférieur garantit un traitement temporel des défaillances des ports, réduisant ainsi des délais de retard éventuels.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système automatique destiné à approvisionner, déployer et gérer des lignes d'abonnés numériques (DSL) dans un réseau de téléphone, ledit système utilisant des données concernant des compositions de boucles, des interférences électromagnétiques et de la diaphonie entre des lignes, ceci permettant d'optimiser les performances et de corriger les problèmes, au moyen d'une ou plusieurs lignes d'abonnés numériques symétriques ou asymétriques, situées dans un câble. Le système optimise des lignes DSL sur une base individuelle, au moyen de mesures et de données. La densité spectrale de puissance (PSD) de transmission optimale pour chaque ligne DSL peut être trouvée de manière itérative. Le lancement de chaque DSL est effectué grâce à des paramètres de lancement, la PSD de transmission de chaque DSL est optimisée d'une manière périodique. La diaphonie dans une DSL donnée est calculée (850), lorsque la somme de puissance de toutes les transmissions est passée à travers les couplages (820) de diaphonie mesurée. Une DSL asymétrique présente sa PSD de transmission optimisée par l'utilisation d'une technique (860) <= d'irrigation >=. Une DSL symétrique ou à support simple présente sa PSD de transmission optimisée, simplement lorsque la PSD correspond au taux de bits maximum pouvant être transmis (890) de manière convenable. L'algorithme d'optimisation associé converge rapidement vers des valeurs uniques après seulement quelques itérations. Chaque DSL peut être analysée par le système de gestion de DSL, ce qui permet de corriger les perturbations de diaphonie et les interférences électroniques (EMI) sur une base individuelle.

Inventor: GREGORIO GERALD L
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2003-12-02
Abstract: A capacity planning method and system determines whether an organization has sufficient staff to perform tasks. The method and system identify each of a plurality of tasks to be performed by the organization, and identify subtasks associated with each of the plurality of tasks. Production rate information related to the amount of time or the number of staff needed to perform each of the identified subtasks is then determined. Based on the identified subtasks and the production rate information, a work volume is calculated. Staff availability is determined based on staff information related to the number of employees, identities and positions of employees, exempt status of employees, staff outage, the amount of work time that cannot be used to perform the subtasks, the amount of business days, and/or the amount of defined work hours per day. A capacity report is then generated based on the work volume and the staff availability.
