A method for retrofitting a processor cluster with application software in a communication network is described herein. In one implementation, the method comprises dividing a processor cluster into a plurality of application processor groups, wherein the processor cluster comprises a plurality of application processors. The application software is retrofitted on an application processor group selected from the plurality of application processor groups, to obtain a retrofitted application processor group. Further, sessions of a subsequent application processor group are preserved on the retrofitted application processor group. The application software is retrofitted onto the subsequent application processor group.
A method for retrofitting a processor cluster, the method comprising:
A retrofitting device comprising:
The retrofitting device as claimed in 8, wherein the retrofitting module is further configured to implement at least one consistent interface between at least the subsequent application processor group and a previously retrofitted application processor group for transferring the session data.
A computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a computer program for executing a method for retrofitting a plurality of processor groups, the method comprising:
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
