Title: Dynamically configurable human-machine interface
Inventor: NIJEMCEVIC SASA
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 2001-12-19
Abstract: A framework is presented to provide support for dynamically configuring a human-machine interface in a network management and service provisioning environment. The framework implements a file parser, methods of accessing a managed object server to interact with instances of managed data network entity objects, a plurality of view panel components and a command interpreter.      A plurality of run-time loadable form files are provided to specify the functionality, look-and-feel of view panel instances used by an analyst manipulate information in interacting with the network management and service provisioning environment. The view panel components are generically coded to provide support for the dynamically configured human-machine interface. The parser is used to load the form files and instantiate view panels on demand to created listing, filtering, creation as well as configuration forms.      Advantages are derived from a separation between network management and service provisioning software application coded functionality and the specification of the interface presented to the analyst. The separation also provides for an efficient development, maintenance and deployment of the network management and service provisioning solution.

Title: Topology aware scheduling for a multiprocessor system
Inventor: GUO HONG
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2001-12-20
Abstract: A system and method for scheduling jobs in a multiprocessor machine is disclosed. The status of CPUs on node boards in the multiprocessor machine is periodically determined. The status can indicate the number of CPUs available, and the maximum radius of free CPUs available to execute jobs. Memory allocation is also monitored. This information is provided to a scheduler that compares the status of the resources available against the resource requirements of jobs. The node boards and OPUS, as well as other resources such as memory, are arranged in hosts. The scheduler then schedules jobs to hosts that indicate they have resources available to execute the jobs. If none of the hosts indicate they have resources available to execute the jobs, the scheduler will wait until the resources become available. A best fit of job to resources is attained by scheduling jobs to hosts that have the maximum number of free CPUs for a radius corresponding to the CPU radius requirement of a job. Once the job is scheduled to a host, it is dispatched to a host and resources required to execute the job are allocated to the job at the host.
