Methods, systems and an apparatus for an embedded web server in a data acquisition device to facilitate access to data acquired by the data acquisition device by one or more web-enabled devices. The embedded web server packages the data for enhanced access by the client over two or more communication pathways using standard data communication protocols and without disrupting the operation of the data acquisition device in which the web server is embedded.

Embedded web server

Embodiments of an apparatus including a first processor core having a local agent running thereon, the agent comprising a local process and a proxy agent and a second processor core having a remote agent running thereon, the remote agent being an instance of the local agent. A shared memory wherein coupled to the first processor core and the second processor core, wherein the local agent and the remote agent communicate via the shared memory. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Multi-core distributed processing using shared memory and communication link

A method for creating, describing, editing and distributing user programs, such a digital signal processing programs of the type used in machine vision applications, across multiple processing targets. Such programs are optimized on and for the target system to execute the fastest on each target system based on the target system's individual processor, operating system and memory type. The user program is made up of a series of operations called &ldquo;steps&rdquo; that are organized in a hierarchical structure or list and which encapsulate the data necessary for the target processor to optimally execute and program and allows optional editing in a target system native and step specific GUI environment. The user programs generated by the present method are not in a computer language nor are they created by directed programming techniques. Further, they are not interpreted. Rather, the steps include one or more associated step objects that in turn call step agents at the time of step program execution. A target system includes a step program engine that includes a number of step agents that have been previously written for that particular target system. At program run time, the step objects call the step agents. In this manner, the step program can be prepared independent of any possible ultimate target system, programming language and associated program language syntax and structure.
