Appl. No.:

09/872654

Inventors:

Vinay Deo - Bellevue WA, US
Don Kadyk - Bothell WA, US
Michael O'Leary - Redmond WA, US

International Classification:

G06F015/16

US Classification:

709/247000, 709/236000

Abstract:

A computer readable medium in a computer system has instructions for storing a first and second data packet destined for the same address. The first and second data packets are appended together to produce a merged data packet that is then compressed to produce a compressed data packet. The compressed data packet is then sent to the common address.

International Classification:

G06F 9445
G06F 906
G06F 940
G06F 15177

US Classification:

709106

Abstract:

Small application programs called "applets" are defined by pseudo-code (p-code) instructions. Each applet is divided into software components that are executed by a processor, operating as a state machine. The applets are originally written in a high level programming language and then converted into the p-code, for downloading into a non-volatile read/write memory of a portable combination pager and personal information manager (PIM) device that includes the processor. In this device only 1-2 Kbytes of static random access memory (RAM) are available to load the p-code of applets for execution by the processor. The software components include variables and event handlers that respond to events such as key presses of buttons disposed on a control panel of the device. The variables include persistent variables that are stored in memory between invocations of an applet, invocation variables that are store in RAM during execution of an applet, and state variables that are only stored in RAM during a specific state of the applet. Event variables are available for processing of a specific event, but are replaced by different event variables when a different event must be processed.
