106 results about "Modular software" patented technology

Modular software is software developed with a design strategy that provides for users to create different configurations by minimizing the use of or adding modules. It can also refer to software that has been conceived so that sections of it are self-contained and can be developed, tested, and maintained separately.

Signatures for facilitating hot upgrades of modular software components

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for facilitating hot upgrades of software components within a telecommunications network device through the use of “signatures” generated by a signature generating program. After installation of a new software release within the network device, only those software components whose signatures do not match the signatures of corresponding and currently executing software components are upgraded. Signatures promote hot upgrades by identifying only those software components that need to be upgraded. Since signatures are automatically generated for each software component as part of putting together a new release a quick comparison of two signatures provides an accurate assurance that either the software component has changed or has not. Thus, signatures provide a quick, easy way to accurately determine the upgrade status of each software component.

High speed data transfer mechanism

A storage and data management system establishes a data transfer pipeline between an application and a storage media using a source data mover and a destination data mover. The data movers are modular software entities which compartmentalize the differences between operating systems and media types. In addition, they independently interact to perform encryption, compression, etc., based on the content of a file as it is being communicated through the pipeline. Headers and chunking of data occurs when beneficial without the application ever having to be aware. Faster access times and storage mapping offer enhanced user interaction.

Modular systems and methods for managing data storage operations

The invention is a modular backup and retrieval system. The software modules making up the backup and retrieval system run independently, and can run either on the same computing devices or on different computing devices. The modular software system coordinates and performs backups of various computing devices communicating to the modules. At least one module on one of the computing devices acts as a system manager for a network backup regimen. A management component acts as a manager for the archival and restoration of the computing devices on the network. It manages and allocates library media usage, maintains backup scheduling and levels, and supervises or maintains the archives themselves through pruning or aging policies. A second software module acts as a manager for each particular library media.

A Method of Rapid Software Application Development for a Wireless Mobile Device

A method of rapid software application development for a wireless mobile device, comprising the step of calling modular software elements, that each (i) encapsulate functionality required by the wireless mobile device and (ii) share a standard interface structure and (iii) execute on the device, under the control of a command line interface. Because the elements execute under the control of a command line interface (and hence are command line programs) it is far easier for a programmer to explore the functioning of the elements—in particular how an element responds to a given input.
