US 9,438,269 B1 · Accelerating codeset conversion in a computing environment

Abstract

A method for accelerating codeset conversion in a computing environment is provided. The method may include, among other things, receiving one or more requests for codeset conversion. The one or more requests may be received, for example, from a client over a communications network. A change in the one or more requests for codeset conversion may be detected. In response to detecting the change, a subset of codeset converters may be selected from among a library of codeset converters to be included in a codeset conversion accelerator. The codeset conversion accelerator may be, among other things, reprogrammed with selected subset of codeset converters. The one or more received requests may be subsequently rerouted to the reprogrammed codeset conversion accelerator.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A processor-implemented method for accelerating codeset conversion, comprising:

receiving, by a processor-implemented codeset conversion acceleration (CCA) component, one or more requests for codeset conversion;
detecting, by the CCA, a change in the one or more received requests for codeset conversion;
selecting, by the CCA, a subset of codeset converters associated with a library of codeset converters for inclusion in a codeset conversion accelerator in response to detecting the change;
reprogramming, by a selective accelerator re-programming daemon of the CCA, the codeset conversion accelerator with the selected subset of codeset converters;
and
routing, by a codeset conversion switch agent of the CCA, the received requests to the codeset conversion accelerator.

3 more elements

A computer program product for accelerating codeset conversion, comprising:

a selective accelerator re-programming daemon (daemon) embodied on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the daemon including program instructions executed by a processor of a computer, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to receive one or more requests for codeset conversion;
program instructions to detect a change in the one or more received requests for codeset conversion;
program instructions to select a subset of codeset converters associated with a library of codeset converters for inclusion in a codeset conversion accelerator in response to detecting the change;
program instructions to reprogram the codeset conversion accelerator with the selected subset of codeset converters;
and
program instructions to reroute the received requests to the codeset conversion accelerator.

4 more elements

A computer system for accelerating codeset conversion comprising:

one or more processors of a computer, one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media executed by at least one of the one or more processors of the computer, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to receive one or more requests for codeset conversion;
program instructions to detect a change in the one or more received requests for codeset conversion;
program instructions to select a subset of codeset converters associated with a library of codeset converters for inclusion in a codeset conversion accelerator in response to detecting the change;
program instructions to reprogram the codeset conversion accelerator with the selected subset of codeset converters;
and
program instructions to route the received requests to the codeset conversion accelerator.
