International Classification:

G06F 9/44
G06F 15/16

US Classification:

719313, 709203, 709227, 709230, 719316

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer readable medium for calling a second functionality by a first functionality comprises calling a third functionality by the first functionality, wherein the calling includes passing arguments to the third functionality, calling a fourth functionality by the third functionality, wherein the calling includes passing the arguments to the fourth functionality, calling a fifth functionality via the fourth functionality, wherein the calling includes marshalling a request related to the arguments and passing the marshaled request to the fifth functionality, calling a sixth functionality via the fifth functionality, wherein the calling includes unmarshalling the marshaled request, calling the second functionality by the sixth functionality, wherein the calling includes passing the arguments related to the unmarshalled request to the second functionality, returning a response related to the arguments by the second functionality to the fifth functionality via the sixth functionality, calling the fourth functionality by the fifth functionality, wherein the calling includes marshalling the response and passing the marshaled response to the fourth functionality, returning a reply to the third functionality by the fourth functionality, wherein the reply includes unmarshalling the marshaled response, and returning the unmarshalled response to the first functionality by the third functionality.

Appl. No.:

12/629931

Inventors:

Thomas T Wheeler - Frisco TX, US
Qin Ye - Plano TX, US
Robert W Peterson - Plano TX, US

Assignee:

Osocad Remote Limited Liability Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Classification:

702188

Abstract:

In a network of sensor nodes, operational efficiency may be increased by configuring the sensor nodes so that sensor agents may be transferred to alternative sensor nodes to process sensor node data, such as when the host sensor node is in a low-power mode. A processing node of the network may be configured to retrieve real-time data from a sensor node, but if real-time data is not available, the processing node may perform calculations on cached data retrieved from a processor node cache or data of a nearby sensor node.

Inventors:

Robert W Peterson - Plano TX, US
Thomas T Wheeler - Frisco TX, US
Deren G Ebdon - Carrollton TX, US

Assignee:

Osocad Remote Limited Liability Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

H04W 64/00

US Classification:

4554561, 4554563, 4554142, 4554521

Abstract:

In a community of mobile devices, a non-participating device can be joined to the community if the non-participating device meets location dependent criteria. The device's location can be determined, e. g. be an onboard GPS, from which it can be determined if the device is within a geospatial boundary of the community. The geospatial boundary may be calculated from the locations of community member devices. Only devices that meet the location dependent criteria will be eligible for participation in the community.

International Classification:

G06F 13/00

US Classification:

719313, 719230, 719231

Abstract:

The present application is directed to a method, apparatus a computer program product configured to perform certain operations of dynamic serialization. In one example, a message is received which includes at least one message element requiring serialization. A first message element of the message is examined. A serialization scheme from a serialization scheme library is selected based on the at least one examined attribute of the first message element. Then, at least the first message element is encoded using the serialization scheme selected.
