Filed:

Feb 20, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/034380

Inventors:

Robert Lee Angell - Salt Lake City UT, US
David Wayne Cosby - Raleigh NC, US
Robert R. Friedlander - Southbury CT, US
James R. Kraemer - Santa Fe NM, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06K 9/00

US Classification:

382103, 382154, 382285, 348169

Abstract:

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for identifying positional data for an object moving in an area of interest. Positional data for each camera in a set of cameras associated with the object is retrieved. The positional data identifies a location of each camera in the set of cameras within the area of interest. The object is within an image capture range of each camera in the set of cameras. Metadata describing video data captured by the set of cameras is analyzed using triangulation analytics and the positional data for the set of cameras to identify a location of the object. The metadata is generated in real time as the video data is captured by the set of cameras. The positional data for the object is identified based on locations of the object over a given time interval. The positional data describes motion of the object.

US Classification:

700300, 713300, 718100, 717161, 712221

Abstract:

Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, a data processing system, and a computer program product for adjusting cooling settings. The computer implemented method comprises analyzing a set of instructions of an application to determine a number of degrees by which a set of instructions will raise a temperature of at least one processor core. The computer implemented method further calculates a cooling setting for at least one cooling system for the at least one processor core. The computer implemented method adjusts the at least one cooling system based on the cooling setting. The step of analyzing the set of instructions is performed before the set of instructions is executed on the at least one processor core. The step of adjusting the at least one cooling system is performed before the set of instructions is executed on the at least one processor core.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709206

Abstract:

A pass-through module in a blade chassis receives an incoming message that utilizes a transmission protocol from one of multiple transmission protocols. The pass-through module determines which of the multiple transmission protocols is used by the incoming message by: comparing a physical component of the transmission protocol used by the incoming message with known physical components of the multiple transmission protocols, and, if necessary, comparing a logical component of the transmission protocol used by the incoming message with known logical components of the multiple transmission protocols. The incoming message is then routed to an optimal blade that is specifically adapted to process messages that utilize the transmission protocol used by the incoming message.
