20110205231 | MAPPING DATA IN ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS FOR OPERATIONAL VISIBILITY - Novel tools and techniques for generating map displays to graphically illustrate financial performance. In one aspect, a map display might employ a coloration scheme that distinguishes among various ranked regions to illustrate, for example, revenue performance (which can be measured by any of a number of metrics), to allow a user to quickly understand the relative performance of a product line across a number of regions. In another aspect, a map display might correlate a first set of revenue information (or other financial information) with other data sets, such as sales force data, competitive sales data, and/or the like, to allow a user to quickly identify correlative patterns in the two data sets. Such map displays might feature two maps side-by-side, or might superimpose a map of one data set over a map of another data set, to assist in the user's visual analysis. | 08-25-2011 |

20090319819 | Clock Synchronization Using Correlation Events - Two clocks may be synchronized by calculating skew and offset values that may be determined from several correlation events. A correlation event may be the passing of messages in both directions between the two devices. The skew and offset values may be used to determine the time of non-correlated events. The clock synchronization may be performed on a real time basis or may be performed on a post processing basis. One method for calculating the skew and offset may use inequalities within a solution space to refine a solution set with multiple sets of correlation events. | 12-24-2009 |
20090328059 | Synchronizing Communication Over Shared Memory - Two threads may communicate via shared memory using two different modes. In a polling mode, a receiving thread may poll an indicator set by the sending thread to determine if a message is present. In a blocking mode, the receiving thread may wait until a synchronization object is set by the sending thread which may cause the receiving thread to return to the polling mode. The polling mode may have low latency buy may use processor activity of the receiving thread to repetitively check the indictor. The blocking mode may have a higher latency but may allow the receiving thread to enter a sleep mode or perform other activities. | 12-31-2009 |
