A data processing system includes at least one system processor, chipset core logic, main memory to store computer software and data including operating system software, and a graphics address remapping table (GART). The chipset logic operates on first-sized real memory pages, while the operating system operates on larger, second-sized virtual memory pages. In an embodiment GART driver software maps each virtual page to Z continuous or non-contiguous real pages by filling up the GART with Z entries per virtual page, where Z is the rounded integer number of first-sized pages per second-sized page. In another embodiment, an address translation function converts a target address, corresponding to an address within a virtual page, issuing from a processor into a second address, corresponding to a base address of a real page in main memory. Also described are an integrated circuit and a computer-readable medium to map memory pages of disparate sizes.

A computerized method for analyzing data files finds association relationships between attributes recorded in the data files. The computer receives one or more data file records, each record containing two or more of attributes of interest. Software defines at least two attribute k-patterns by reference to a subset of the attributes, where k is an integer and represents the number of attributes that are included in a k-pattern. Using an invertible mapping algorithm, the software maps each of the at least two attribute k-patterns into an associated key and determines a distribution pattern for each of the at least two attribute k-patterns defined in step. The software then inverts the mapping to decode from the keys to the associated attribute k-pattern; and, using the keys, associates the distribution patterns determined with each of the at least two attribute k-patterns. Output is in the form of reports, detection signals and / or control signals.

System and computer program product for estimating the cost of an ESD for software and subsequent updates for the software. Various cost factors can be considered such as one or more of the following. First program instructions determine a cost of the ESD associated with packaging together components of the software. Second program instructions receive a selection from an operator whether to push or pull the subsequent updates to a customer, and determine a cost for distributing the subsequent updates based on the selection. Third program instructions estimate a cost of the ESD associated with a type of program used by the customer to create images of the software. Fourth program instructions estimate a cost of the subsequent updates associated with distributing the updates to a remote distribution site, and then distributing the updates from the remote distribution site to the customer based on a type of customer tool used to download the updates from the remote distribution site. Fifth program instructions sum together the various costs.

A method for signing data such as software images is provided that uses modules executable by a generic client to sign hashes of the software images rather than the images themselves. The method avoids both the requirement for new or updated client software and the uploading of full software images to the signing system. This approach uses a generic client that requests and downloads processing modules from the signing system to perform the pre-processing operations in signing software images, as well as optionally for post-processing operations.

The embodiment of the invention provides a software graphical interface test method and device, a software development system and a server. The software graphic interface can be effectively tested forthe associated graphic rendering model associated with the rendering service; an associated graph rendering model is identified; further a software graphic interface test result of the software graphic interface for the associated graphic rendering model is judged; therefore, a developer can further optimize according to the software graphic interface test result, so that the rendering effect ofthe associated graphic rendering model in the subsequent software use process is improved, and the rendering error condition is improved.

An aggregation approach allows for a dynamic, interactive, adaptive level-of-detail for 2D, 2.5D, and 3D treemaps for visualization of complex information. For example, the 2.5D treemap visualization concept is extended by providing adaptive identification of aggregates by means of an interactive node scoring approach based on contextual relevance and various other task, interaction, visibility, and / or performance specific criteria. For the resulting mapping and rendering, a per-frame aggregation of blocks and accumulation of those attributes mapped to visual variables (context) is described. Since every embodiment is also targeted for dynamic, interactive visual display of 2.5D treemaps, the rendering is designed to be capable for execution in real-time. Visual preservation of important information is conveyed by hierarchy elements and their mapped attributes (nodes-of-interest) as well as compliance to known aggregation guidelines including visualization of aggregated color and height information, visualization of aggregates that are discernible from non-aggregates, and visualization of outliers within aggregates. Applications include visualization of software maps, business intelligence data, file hierarchies for storage devices, and the like.

The Bluetooth wearable device can include a single ring which fits over the user's thumb or other finger. The wearable device interfaces with specialized software to provide two primary functions. First, the ring in combination with specialized software maps the rest of the user's hand in order to take input from fingers that are not currently wearing a device. Two contact points touch the screen of a device and conduct the electric current along the user's skin to interact with a capacitive screen. Second, the ring acts as a broker to connect a paired device with a touchscreen device. Between the twin contacts is a color sensor. The software on the touchscreen device displays a color to indicate how the devices should establish their connection. Using this information, the ring initiates the connection.
