Filed:

Aug 21, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/224556

Inventors:

Merlin Rhoda - Reno NV, US
John Monk - Colorado Springs CO, US

International Classification:

G06F009/46

US Classification:

719/320000

Abstract:

Defining an interface/function protocol, which parallels (mirrors) user interface functions of a computing device based upon a markup language (tag-based scripting language), to remotely interact (control/establish communication) via a network with the computing device. Accordingly, the markup-language based interface/function protocol can be used as an application programming interface to develop software applications remotely controlling computing devices.

Merlin Rhoda - Reno NV, US
Scott Blomquist - Colorado Springs CO, US

International Classification:

G06F015/177

US Classification:

709220000

Abstract:

A system or method that extends a communication test/measurement agent by providing the communication test/measurement agent with built-in functionality to allow a central communication test/measurement system to generically communicate with and operate the agent, and by providing the communication test/measurement agent with built-in functionality to allow the agent to automatically recognize and dynamically incorporate plugins that are specific to different types of communication interfaces and which allow the network test/measurement system to communicate with the respective different types of communication interfaces.

Inventors:

Samuel Bauer - Colorado Springs CO, US

Merlin Rhoda - Reno NV, US

International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709224000

Abstract:

The invention provides a method and an apparatus for performing high-level filtering processes on data prior to the data being stored in the capture buffer, or on data that is currently stored in the capture buffer. In both cases, the amount of data that is ultimately paged from the capture buffer to other storage devices is reduced. In addition, signal analyzer resources, such as data collection probes, for example, can be shared without users having to view data that is not relevant to them.
