20080256171 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HISTORY DRIVEN OPTIMIZATION OF WEB SERVICES COMMUNICATION - A system, method and computer program product for communicating Web-Services (WS) messages. First there is allocated an identical amount of a cache history storage at each sender and receiver device for storing a history of communicated WS message strings. At the sender, there is generated an intermediate data representations of each message being built, the corresponding message string stored in the cache history storage. The message is communicated as a serialized data string according to the built data representation. For each subsequent message to be communicated, the method comprises identifying identical portions in intermediate data representations of a current message being built and replacing each identified portion in message strings with a reference indicator to a location in the cache history storage corresponding to an identical character string portion associated with a prior message that has been communicated. At the receiver device, the references are identified in received message strings and one or more intermediate data representations locally stored at the receiver device are substituted in the message to complete a build of the received message. | 10-16-2008 |

20090292825 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IN-KERNEL APPLICATION-SPECIFIC PROCESSING OF CONTENT STREAMS - An embodiment of the invention transfers content between one or more input streams and one or more output streams via an application running on a host system. A kernel-level service is provided which is adapted to perform application-specific processing and which attends to transfer of content from at least one input stream to at least one output stream. With the kernel-level service, an operation is performed for the collection of at least one input stream and at least one output stream via: performing application-specific processing; and attending to the transfer of content from at least one input stream to at least one output stream. | 11-26-2009 |
20130227704 | PROCESSOR AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD WITH NON-HIERARCHICAL COMPUTER SECURITY ENHANCEMENTS FOR CONTEXT STATES - Disclosed are a processor and processing method that provide non-hierarchical computer security enhancements for context states. The processor can comprise a context control unit that uses context identifier tags associated with corresponding contexts to control access by the contexts to context information (i.e., context states) contained in the processor's non-stackable and/or stackable registers. For example, in response to an access request, the context control unit can grant a specific context access to a register only when that register is tagged with a specific context identifier tag. If the register is tagged with another context identifier tag, the contents of the specific register are saved in a context save area of memory and the previous context states of the specific context are restored to the specific register before access can be granted. The context control unit can also provide such computer security enhancements while still facilitating authorized cross-context and/or cross-level communications. | 08-29-2013 |
20130346467 | EFFICIENT EGONET COMPUTATION IN A WEIGHTED DIRECTED GRAPH - An embodiment of the invention pertains to a weighted directed graph comprising multiple nodes and edges that each extends between two nodes. The embodiment includes processing edges to generate a forward and reverse edge corresponding to each edge. Forward and reverse edges are processed to generate indirect edges, each comprising two edge components, and extending between two nodes. One node associated with each forward edge, each reverse edge, and each indirect edge is selected to be the key node of its associated edge. All forward, reverse and indirect edges having a particular node as their respective key nodes are placed into a group. All edges of the group are then selectively processed to provide information pertaining to an egonet of the graph that has the particular node as its egonode. | 12-26-2013 |

20150039903 | MASKING QUERY DATA ACCESS PATTERN IN ENCRYPTED DATA - A method for encrypting a database includes the following step. Keywords in the database are encrypted to obtain encrypted search tags for the keywords. A table of reverse indices is generated for the encrypted search tags. A table of cross keyword indices is generated. A method for searching in an encrypted database includes the following steps. A search is formulated as a conjunct of two or more atomic search queries. One of the conjuncts is selected as a primary atomic search query. Search capabilities are generated for a secondary atomic search query using the primary atomic search query and the secondary atomic search query. Such methods mask query data and the actual composition of the database to reduce computation complexity and privacy leakage. | 02-05-2015 |
