View page
US Patent:
6671876, Dec 30, 2003
Filed:
Oct 28, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/429510
Inventors:
Robert R. Podowski - Mundelein IL
Assignee:
Lucent Technologies Inc. - Murray Hill NJ
International Classification:
G06F 945
US Classification:
717130, 717127, 717131, 717158
Abstract:
The operation of software carrying out a computer program is monitored for determining which blocks of code are being run and which are inactive. Each block of code being monitored has a software probe inserted at the beginning of the block for detection and identification purposes. In one embodiment, the software probe inserted in the block of code is automatically increment by 1 to indicate that the block has been accessed. The extent of use, or activity, of each block of code is recorded and presented in graphic form on a video display. In a first mode of operation, the times at which a selected block of code is accessed within a given time period is displayed along a horizontal axis and the number of times of access at each time it occurs is represented along a vertical axis in bar graph form. In a second mode of operation, the various monitored blocks of code are displayed along a horizontal axis in a spaced manner and the number of times each of the individual blocks is accessed during operation of the computer program is presented in bar graph form vertically. By uncovering and eliminating unused blocks of software code, the operating efficiency of the computer program as well as that of the hardware under the control of the computer program can be improved.

Software Oscilloscope

View page
US Patent:
7392508, Jun 24, 2008
Filed:
Jun 7, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/863546
Inventors:
Robert Podowski - Mundelein IL, US
International Classification:
G06F 9/45
US Classification:
717125
Abstract:
The execution over time of software code is displayed such as on the screen of a cathode ray tube by inserting probes into blocks of code and displaying each probe as the various blocks of code are executed. The execution of various blocks of code is presented in a spatial manner to provide information regarding the sequential operation of, and the temporal relationships among, the various blocks of code. This software code operating information is displayed in real time or may be stored for subsequent recall and display. The start and stop of observation of software code operation may be preprogrammed for automatic monitoring, or monitoring may be triggered by an event. By visually observing the operation of the software program, correlation can be established between execution of the various blocks of code and expected system responses or events leading to a better understanding of program operation and design.

Digital Remote Control System With Signal Verification

View page
US Patent:
40064620, Feb 1, 1977
Filed:
Mar 10, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/556760
Inventors:
Robert R. Podowski - Elmhurst IL
Johnny Collins - Harvey IL
Assignee:
Zenith Radio Corporation - Chicago IL
International Classification:
H04Q 916
G06F 1100
US Classification:
340168B
Abstract:
A wireless remote control system has a transducer coupled to a sampling first counter for counting the frequency of incoming signals. A portion of the count distinguishes among various control signal frequencies and is supplied to a memory and a comparator. A second counter counts the number of identical comparisons of present and immediately preceding measurements, and is reset when a non-identical comparison is detected. The memory supplies the stored portion of the count to a decoder which is disabled by the second counter until a predetermined number of identical frequency comparisons have been determined, which provides noise immunity. The decoder is coupled to utilization means to activate the control function corresponding to the frequency of the control signal.

Receiver Digital Control System

View page
US Patent:
39538010, Apr 27, 1976
Filed:
Jun 3, 1974
Appl. No.:
5/475739
Inventors:
Robert R. Podowski - Elmhurst IL
Assignee:
Zenith Radio Corporation - Chicago IL
International Classification:
H04B 126
US Classification:
325464
Abstract:
A broadcast receiver has a reversible binary counter having its output coupled to a digital-to-analog converter which translates the counter's binary coded output signal to a control voltage and applies it to a voltage controllable circuit means. A local source of clock pulses is selectively coupled to the counter by a pair of operator actuated switches to preferentially alter the counter output signal. The binary coded counter output signals are coupled to a non-volatile memory by read/write means for storage during periods of receiver deactivation and reimposed on the counter during subsequent activation of the receiver. Receiver activation and deactivation transitions are detected by voltage sensing means which are coupled to the read/write means and are responsive to changes in the receiver operating potential. Preset means comprising a non-volatile, non-erasable memory and selector switches permit resetting the counter to a predetermined binary data configuration.

Method And Apparatus For Distributing Program Material

US Patent:
55242723, Jun 4, 1996
Filed:
Dec 22, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/171945
Inventors:
Robert R. Podowski - Mundelein IL
Mark S. Schneider - Naperville IL
Assignee:
GTE Airfone Incorporated - Oak Brook IL
International Classification:
H04N 700
H04H 100
US Classification:
455 32
Abstract:
A communication system includes a distribution center which collects and processes signals from one or more program sources, and distributes these signals in compressed format to one or more airline terminals, each terminal in communication with one or more parked aircraft. An airline issues a program request identifying certain ones of the program sources, and sends this request to the distribution center where a composite signal is prepared including representations of the program source signals and the program request. The composite signal is transmitted to receiver units at subscriber airline terminals of airports where individual program orders are stored and subsequently distributed to the appropriate aircraft for subsequent in-flight playback of the programs.

Electric Remote Control Transmitter

View page
US Patent:
40217566, May 3, 1977
Filed:
Jul 2, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/592582
Inventors:
Robert R. Podowski - Elmhurst IL
Richard W. Citta - Oak Park IL
Assignee:
Zenith Radio Corporation - Glenview IL
International Classification:
H03B 520
US Classification:
331117R
Abstract:
An electronic remote control transmitter employs a two transistor cascade oscillator having positive and negative feedback loops. The oscillator voltage is supplied through a switch assembly containing a plurality of momentary contact switches to a pair of voltage dividers supplying signal voltages in predetermined ratios to a two branch circuit in the negative feedback loop. One branch contains an inductor and the second branch a capacitor. Closure of any switch completes the DC circuits for the transistors. Signal voltage is supplied to the branches to produce a minimum amplitude, zero phase shift condition which establishes oscillation at that predetermined frequency. The output of the oscillator is amplified by a third transistor and supplied to an ultrasonic transducer for generating acoustical control signals.
