A Jini&#x2122;-based distributed computing platform architecture constructed to facilitate dynamic availability of eCommerce services over the Internet by which new services made available by a service provider are instantly accessible to a user through a web server.

Network dynamic service availability

A system for distributing services for execution by dynamically available resources is disclosed. A computational load of a service for execution is distributed among the dynamically available resources such that no resource is under or over utilized. The system includes an Execution Server, arranged to communicate with at least one user browser, including an Execution Manager servlet, a Results Manager servlet, and a Results Finder servlet. The system further includes a Load Balancer Lookup Finder object for finding and identifying an available Load Balancer to the Execution Manager at least one Load Balancer, at least one Compute Server and a Compute Server Lookup Finder object in communication with the Load Balancer to find and effectively utilize the available Compute Servers for executing the user services.

Execution of dynamic services in a flexible architecture for e-commerce

A delegated administration tool for administrating information in a database directory. The delegated administration tool enables an administrator to delegate administration and various types of administrative authority to other users within a community of users. In particular, an administrator with proper authority may create new administrative domains and assign authority referred to as delegation authority and edit authority to other users. The creation of additional administrative domains and the assignment of the delegation authority and edit authority can continue to an arbitrary level within the community.

Delegated administration of information in a database directory

Establishment and maintenance of a managed community. In this disclosure there is an approach and tool that enables an administration tool to manage communities whose information resides in separate and differently structured directories and databases. In addition, this disclosure describes an approach and tool that enables an administration tool to establish information to be managed from the broad range of directories and databases, which includes defining information that is to be managed and information that is not to be managed and the discovering of new information to manage.

A method and system for pacing a vehicle along a path of travel is described. The method includes determining a geographical location of the vehicle, displaying a vehicle position icon representative of the geographical location, determining an optimal position for the vehicle, displaying a pace icon representative of the optimal position for the vehicle, and operating the vehicle to maintain a vehicle position icon displayed on the operator pace display substantially coincident with the pace icon displayed on the operator pace display. The system includes at least one on-board tracking system configured to determine a geographical location of the vehicle, at least one on-board computer configured to determine a display position of a pace icon, and at least one on-board operator pace display configured to display the pace icon at a position determined by the on-board computer, the operator pace display further configured to display the vehicle position, as determined by the on-board computer, relative to the pace icon.
