20090070740 | SYSTEM FOR STORING AND MANAGING OBJECTS - A system of the present invention includes a storage device for distinguishably storing old objects that are objects having existed for not less than a predetermined period since being generated and new objects that are objects having existed for less than the predetermined period since being generated. Then, a new object that has existed for less than the predetermined period since being generated is selected from the storage device, and an old object having the same content as the selected new object is searched for. If such an old object is not found, the selected new object is newly stored as an old object in the storage device. If the old object is found, a reference to the selected new object is integrated with a reference to the found old object. If the old object is stored, the reference to the selected new object is changed to a reference to the stored old object. | 03-12-2009 |
20090249292 | Processing strings based on whether the strings are short strings or long strings - The specification of a string within source code written in a programming language is received. The source code is processed for ultimate execution of a computer program encompassing the source code, by at least performing the following. It is determined whether the string specified is a short string or a long string. The string is processed in accordance with a first manner where the string is a short string. The string is processed in accordance with a second manner where the string is a long string. | 10-01-2009 |
20100106697 | SYSTEM FOR ACCESSING SHARED DATA USING MULTIPLE APPLICATION SERVERS - A system including multiple application servers for accessing shared data and a centralized control unit for centrally controlling a lock applied to the shared data by each of the application servers. Each application server includes a distributed control unit for controlling a lock applied to the shared data by the application server and a selection unit for selecting any one of distributed mode in which a lock is acquired from the distributed control unit or a centralized mode in which a lock is acquired from the centralized control unit. | 04-29-2010 |
20100153484 | OFFLOADING FILLING OF TEMPLATE PARAMETERS TO CLIENT FROM SERVER - One or more servers are communicatively connected to a client. An application program and a dummy template engine run on the servers. The dummy template engine substitutes an original template engine that can run on the servers. The original template engine is normally used by the application program to fill parameters of a template at the servers. The dummy template engine has the same interface as the original template has, such that the application program accesses the dummy template engine no differently than it accesses the original template engine. The dummy template engine is thus accessed by the application program in lieu of the original template engine. The dummy template engine causes the parameters of the template to be filled at the client instead of at the servers, such that template parameter filling is offloaded to the client. | 06-17-2010 |
20100235412 | METHOD TO REDUCE WASTED CHARACTER DATA AREAS OF JAVA STRINGS - A string handling method, program, and information processing apparatus capable of reducing the amount of data stored in a storage. An information processing apparatus handles strings. The information processing apparatus includes a storage storing a group of strings including a plurality of strings each of which consists of a plurality of pieces of character data, a reference section which refers to a particular string in the group of strings, a character data detecting section which detects character data that is not referenced as the particular string in the group of strings, and a character data deleting section which deletes the detected character data from the group of strings. | 09-16-2010 |
20110137971 | DATA COLLECTION METHOD AND SYSTEM - A method of collecting data into a server from multiple client computers is provided as a first aspect of the invention. The method includes the steps of: reconstructing a collection network in a tree structure having the server acting as a highest node and the multiple client computers acting as child nodes every time the data is collected; the server broadcasting a parent-child declaration to nodes placed at the lower level; and each of the nodes transferring data to a node placed at the higher level. | 06-09-2011 |

20140040326 | GARBAGE COLLECTION OF AN OBJECT - One or more embodiments are directed to creating a structure comprising a weak reference to an object, a strong reference to the object, a count of remote references to the object, and an identifier for the object, incrementing the count when a remote reference is created to the object and decrementing the count when a remote reference is removed, setting the strong reference in response to the count being greater than a first threshold in order to avoid a garbage collection of the object, clearing the strong reference in response to the count being less than a second threshold to enable a garbage collection of the object, and removing the structure and related resources based on a recognition of the object's collection through the weak reference. | 02-06-2014 |
