20090112805 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR IMPLEMENTING SEARCH QUERY PRIVACY - User privacy is protected by preventing certain unsafe search queries from being associated with the user when saved by a search engine. When an unsafe query is detected, the unsafe query is submitted to a proxy service, and the proxy service submits the query to a search engine preventing the query from being associated with the user. The user receives the search results from the proxy service. Query filtering only allows queries to be submitted directly to the search engine that do not provide personal information or information which may infer an undesirable trend when taken in aggregate with other submitted queries by that user. | 04-30-2009 |

20100100715 | HANDLING DEBUGGER BREAKPOINTS IN A SHARED INSTRUCTION SYSTEM - A debugger debugs processes that execute shared instructions so a breakpoint set for one process will not cause a breakpoint to occur in the other processes. A breakpoint is set by recording the original instruction at the desired location and writing a trap instruction to the shared instructions at that location. When a process encounters the breakpoint, the process passes control to the debugger for breakpoint processing if the breakpoint was set at that location for that process. If the trap was not set at that location for that process, the cacheline containing the trap is copied to a small scratchpad memory, and the virtual memory mappings are changed to translate the virtual address of the cacheline to the scratchpad. The original instruction is then written to replace the trap instruction in the scratchpad, so the process can execute the instructions in the scratchpad thereby avoiding the trap instruction. | 04-22-2010 |
20100122199 | Using Accelerators in a Hybrid Architecture for System Checkpointing - A hybrid node of a High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster uses accelerator nodes for checkpointing to increase overall efficiency of the multi-node computing system. The host node or processor node reads/writes checkpoint data to the accelerators. After offloading the checkpoint data to the accelerators, the host processor can continue processing while the accelerators communicate the checkpoint data with the host or wait for the next checkpoint. The accelerators may also perform dynamic compression and decompression of the checkpoint data to reduce the checkpoint size and reduce network loading. The accelerators may also communicate with other node accelerators to compare checkpoint data to reduce the amount of checkpoint data stored to the host. | 05-13-2010 |
20100122256 | Scheduling Work in a Multi-Node Computer System Based on Checkpoint Characteristics - Efficient application checkpointing uses checkpointing characteristics of a job to determine how to schedule jobs for execution on a multi-node computer system. A checkpoint profile in the job description includes information on the expected frequency and duration of a check point cycle for the application. The checkpoint profile may be based on a user/administrator input as well as historical information. The job scheduler will attempt to group applications (jobs) that have the same checkpoint profile, on the same nodes or group of nodes. Additionally, the job scheduler may control when new jobs start based on when the next checkpoint cycle(s) are expected. The checkpoint monitor will monitor the checkpoint cycles, updating the checkpoint profiles of running jobs. The checkpoint monitor will also keep track of an overall system checkpoint profile to determine the available checkpointing capacity before scheduling jobs on the cluster. | 05-13-2010 |
