Patent
Multiprocessor system includes operating system for notifying only those cache managers who are holders of shared locks on a designated page by global lock manager
Robert Baird,Gerald Parks Bozman,Alexander Stafford Lett,James Joseph Myers,William H. Tetzlaff +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a conditional broadcast or notification facility of a global lock manager is utilized to both serialize access to pages stored in local caches of counterpart processors in a distributed system and to ensure consistency among pages common to the caches.
Patent
Method for dynamically expanding and rapidly accessing file directories
Robert Baird,Robert Ryan Berbec,Gerald Parks Bozman,Alexander Stafford Lett,James Joseph Myers,William H. Tetzlaff,Jay Unger +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a tree-searchable B-tree approach is proposed for name-oriented access of files having at least zero records. But the tree is not a tree of records.
Patent
Managing locality in space reuse in a shadow written B-tree via interior node free space list
TL;DR: In this article, a method for managing space re-use with respect to the indices (nodes) of shadow written tree organized dynamic random accessed files/records/pages located in the external store of a CPU is presented.
Patent
Method for allowing weak searchers to access pointer-connected data structures without locking
TL;DR: In this article, a method for allowing weak-searchers of a B+-tree to avoid locks that serialize access to the B+tree structure is proposed, which is based on the assumption that the readers will complete their reading within a specified period but sometimes will need to be restarted.
Patent
Arbitral dynamic cache using processor storage
TL;DR: A data cache in a computer operating system that dynamically adapts its size in response to competing demands for processor storage, and exploits the storage cooperatively with other operating system components is discussed in this article.
