Handler cloning is a technique for optimizing exception handling. For a specific exception handler catching and rethrowing multiple classes of exceptions, it creates a clone of the original handler and registers the clone as a handler that catches only a single class or subset of the classes for the original handler. The rethrown exceptions from the clone are determined at the compile time.

The Message Handler extracts critical intelligence information from the free-text of military messages to merge with the data'parsed from fixed-fields. In the third of four project phases, the current focus is on developing stand-alone capabilities demonstrating the viability of natural language processing in Advance Concept Technology Demonstrations (ACTDs), and to operational users at militar...

The virus begins by walking the Structured Exception Handler chain to fi nd the topmost handler. At the same time, it registers a new exception handler which points to the host entrypoint. The reason for this will be described below. Once the topmost handler has been found, the virus uses the resulting pointer as the starting location in memory for a search for the MZ and PE headers of kernel32...

Traditional priority-driven real-time kernels distinguish between tasks, which are scheduled and dispatched by a software scheduler, and (possibly different kinds of) interrupt service routines (ISRs), which are scheduled and dispatched by the hardware platform. In our Sloth system, we get rid of the software scheduler and let the hardware do the scheduling and dispatching work for tasks, too. ...

Most J2EE applications have a search and query requirement to search and list certain data. In some cases, such a search and query operation could yield results that can be quite large. It is impractical to return the full result set when the client’s requirements are to traverse the results, rather than process the complete set. Typically, a client uses the results of a query for read-only pur...
