Abstract

An information handling system having a plurality of networked information processing systems which communicates system configuration and other system management information among the information processing systems of the network through the HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) and HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) interfaces used, for example, in the internet communications regime and by known computer executable programs known as "web browsers" which use those interfaces. A number of protocols exist through which computer systems report operational problems to watching receivers. These protocols include DMI, SNMP, CMIP, and CMOL. If a user wishes to work with the events used by these protocols, he must use an interface. Furthermore, this interface must be implemented on the platform from which the user wishes to view the events. The development of management interfaces for each of these protocols is a barrier to the effective use of them on a number of platforms. This invention eliminates that barrier by providing a platform-independent browser to manage the protocols.

Description of invention (4) Multiple disk drives, a fixed disk storage device, an on-demand Marking devices such as a mouse and an on-demand printer. These systems are mainly designed to provide independent computing power to single users or a small group of users, and their price is not high, suitable for purchase by individuals or enterprises. Such commercially available personal computers are, for example, IB Μ personal computers, personal computers χτ, personal computers AT, and IBM personal systems / 2 of models 25, 30, 50, 55, 57, 60, 65, 70, 80, 90, and 95/2 (Hereinafter referred to as IBM PC, XT, AT and PS / 2). The above system can be classified into two series. The first series, commonly referred to as Series 1, uses a bus architecture such as that used for AT computers and other "IBM compatible" machines. The second series, called Series 2 type, uses an IBM microchannel bus architecture for IBM PS / 2 models 50 to 95. The bus architectures used in Series 1 and Series 2 are both known to the Bank. IBM PC and XT are the previous models of the IBM personal computer series, and use the Intel 808 8 processor ^ The next important change in the IBM personal computer system is the AT using the Intel 8028 6 processor »PS / 2 series use different Intel "Processor" is similar to the system of IBM PC and XT is PS / 2 model 30 system, which uses Intel 8086 processor. Intel 803 86 processor is used in IBM PS / 2 model 80 system and some IBM PS / 2 model 70 system. For other systems of IBM PS / 2 model 70 and XP 486 of PS / 2 model 90 and XP 486 of model 95, Intel 80486 processors are used. One of the common points of all the above systems is the use of Intel X8 6 series processors. There are a variety of commercially available and well-known software operating systems, such as the DΟS or 0 S / 2 operating system, which can operate on various processors of the I n t e 1 X 8 6 series.

Installation. V. Invention description (printed by A7 B7 Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Central Bureau of Standards of the Ministry of Economic Affairs has recognized the importance of achieving software and hardware compatibility ^ ^, the major 0 is the achievement With this goal, a system-resident code isolation layer called "code making" is created between the hard sister and the software. This code provides a user interface between the user's application / operating system and the hardware device to ease the use Concerns about the characteristics of hardware devices. Finally, this code has developed into a basic input / output system called ⑻, which is used to add new hardware devices to the system, and at the same time to make applications / operating systems and hardware The importance of separating the features of the device is fairly straightforward, because the BIOS allows the device driver to no longer rely on specific hardware device characteristics, and at the same time provides the device driver with an interface between hardware devices. The purpose of the BIOS is for computer systems A Separate and control the data output and input of the system processor, so it resides on the system motherboard of the system unit and is read only memory (ROM) or erasable programmable read only memory (EPROM) Transfer to the user. For example, the BIOS in the earlier IBM PC occupies 8K bytes in the ROM that resides on the motherboard (one kilobyte represents the size of 104 bytes). Except r In addition to 〇μ, the motherboard also includes a system processor, a main random access memory (RAM), and other components that are actually fixed to the motherboard in a coplanar relationship. 3 ROM also contains a power-on automatic test ( POST) program, which is used to test and initialize the computer system. The total set of codes residing in the computer system R0M is known as "system firmware J, or simply" firmware ". Therefore, the firmware contains a POST part and a BIOS part. Sometimes BIOS is defined to contain the POST program. When new models of this personal computer series are introduced, the firmware must be updated and expanded to support new hardware such as input / output (I / O) devices体 装置。 I η Xiange- Read the back. Note 2 The paper size of the bound book is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Α4 specification (210X297 mm). The A7 _______F7 is printed by the Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Central Bureau of Standards of the Ministry of Economy. V. Invention description (6) One can expect the firmware The size of the memory starts to increase. For example, when the IB Μ personal computer AT came out, the firmware grew to R OM requiring 32 κ bytes. When the ϊ β Μ personal system / 2 came out, it developed The channel architecture, that is, the brand new BI ΟS or Progressive BIOs or A BIOS computer system. However, to maintain software compatibility, BI〇S from Series 1 must be included in Series 2. Series 1 Type IBIO S later became known as the compatibility β〗 〇s or C ΒΙΟ S. Therefore, β I Ο S has developed into more than one type, such as a compatible basic input output system (CBIOS) and an advanced basic input output system (ABIOS). The current architecture of the personal computer system defines a system address space (system firmware address space) for firmware up to 128K bytes. At present, due to the continuous development of new technologies, personal computer systems are becoming more and more complex and new functions are being added faster. Because new technologies change rapidly and new I / O devices are added to personal computer systems, firmware modification and expansion have become important issues in the development cycle of personal computer systems. With the introduction of the microchannel architecture, IBM provides a new configuration procedure called Programmable Option Selection (POS). p〇s is designed to make the system add 4 points of installation and expansion. By eliminating the use of DIP switches, jumpers and connectors, it is easier and less error-prone than the average PC. The CMO S memory P S / 2 system using a low-power, battery pack can remember its hardware configuration. This configuration includes the identification of expansion devices and how these expansion devices are related to other parts of the system. Each expansion card designed for microchannels has a unique identification number. When the system starts up, the PS / 2 system compares the installed options with the information in its non-volatile memory to detect changes ’to ensure the integrity of its settings. The configuration file is used during the configuration process _____ ___ ~ 9-This paper is suitable for China's "&"; Standard (CNS) Α4 specification (210X297 male thin) "-(Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this Page).

Invention Description 丨 7) A standard disk (Reference Diskette) is automatically included in the file system. In some IBM PS / 2 systems, such as models 70 and 80, the standard disk contains a floppy disk that accompanies the computer system and stores system configuration information. Although the configuration procedure of the P S / 2 system is quite simple and easy to execute, standard discs must be kept at hand for easy access or storage. However, there may be a period of time after the last system configuration, and the standard discs will be lost or misplaced. Therefore, it is necessary to store a copy of the standard disc on the DASD. In US Patent No. 5,128,995 invented by Arnold et al., The applicant of the present invention discloses a device for loading the system standard disc image from the system part of DASD, where the DASD has a protected area It is used to store boot record, BIOS program content (image) and a system standard disc. The reason why a part of DASD must be protected is to prevent the BIOS from being contaminated or destroyed. During a certain system operation, for example, when the processor is under the control of the operating system or when it executes an application program, the controller is configured to omit the protection zone. More and more personal computer systems are linked together to provide an information processing network (such as a local area network or LAN) so that multiple information processing systems can exchange information, share I / O devices, and use a special Direct access storage device (DASD), such as a special hard disk file (hardfUe) or diskette. Generally speaking, an information network contains multiple information processing systems called "customers" and at least one manager processing system called "servers". All systems are connected through a communication medium, such as copper wires and / Or fiber optic cables are interconnected or networked.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Ο A7 B7 The Central Communication Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Employee Consumer Cooperative Printed Servo System) network communication is handled through a communication network card device. These network cards are compatible with one or more network communication protocols. Such as characterizing the ring or Ethernet. Therefore, wireless mobile clients have been developed to connect to a server through various radio frequency or infrared radiation protocols. The issues discussed in wired LaN basically also appear in wireless LANt. The main advantage of a networked information processing system is clearly its ability to provide multiple types of information communication among multiple information processing systems. In this information, the communicators in the network can obtain information related to the status and / or configuration of the system itself. The configuration information can be processed in various types to perform diagnosis or notify each other's configuration and capabilities to other networks. Luhua's information processing system, etc. 9 System configuration information has previously been used to detect error conditions in large network systems. For example, IBM's System 3 90 is designed to monitor its performance in a networked system in a real-time manner. _Once an error condition is detected, a diagnostic routine is executed to isolate the error condition from the defective system component. Thereafter, information about the detected error condition and the diagnosis result is communicated to a central station via a modem on a telephone line. The real-time error monitoring and error communication capabilities of the prior art systems are generally included in the system hardware architecture and / or operating system or application software. Unfortunately, the real-time error detection implemented in large computer system networks is not suitable for information processing systems such as personal computers. The reason is partly because the existing standard operating systems, such as DOS and WINDOW, cannot support error analysis and reporting capabilities that can be used in larger systems. More importantly, the 11 'paper size of the central part of the personal computer system is suitable for China National Winter Vehicle (CNS) A4 specifications (2 丨 〇X 29 * 7 epidemic) (please read the note Ϋ on the back before filling in this Page) Binding · Order A7 B7 Printed by the Ministry of Economic Affairs Bureau of Central Standards Employee Consumer Cooperative V. Invention description (management capabilities cannot achieve real-time configuration monitoring, error detection and return. However, there is still a need to communicate system-related information on the information processing network The information processing network is composed of a small information processing system, such as a personal computer whose operating system and CPU cannot support the communication of system configuration information on the network in real time. The above-mentioned needs have been disclosed as before It is described in the network of the common application related to the present invention. The information processing network in these networks has multiple information processing systems operating under the control of an equal number of operating systems, and each information processing system has a A predetermined system configuration. This processing system includes a detector to 'detect this during the initial microcode loading (IML) period before loading into the operating system The change of the unified configuration relative to the predetermined system configuration. The processing system also contains communication elements to communicate the system configuration on the network once a change in the system configuration is detected before being loaded into an operating system "Information" The information processing network may further include a manager information processing system, which has a monitor that monitors communication on the network, and a receiver that receives the system configuration information communicated on the network. The information may include identification for an information processing system in which the system configuration change is initiated by the user. The manager information processing system provides a permission or denial of the user to initiate the system configuration change Authorization signal.-Refer to the drawings for clear reference, especially Figure 1A, which shows a personal computer system that can operate in the information processing network 150 of the present invention.

BIOS is a set of Commands for sending data and control commands between the processor 2〇2 and the I / O device "If the information processing system (such as 1 0 2 B) is media-free (ie does not have d ASD or floppy disk drive) ' Executed through the communication network card 23 1_Remote Initial Program Load (RIPL). This network card can be connected to one of the processors 23 2 by a known method, for example, and is allowed from a network server 10. 2 Start an operating system. POST contains a start-up program for finding a start-up device and loading a start-up record. The boot device is usually the hard disk file 106 or the drive 108, and if it is a medialess client, it is a server 1 2 0 ^ drive 1 〇8-need to start or operating system disk (media 'figure Not shown) to operate. If p 〇 S T is loaded successfully, the startup of the startup device? If you have recorded, then P 0 S T will hand over control to the startup record and complete the operation of the POST startup program. ❶ If the startup record cannot be loaded and there is a PRL network card, then POST will hand over control to the PRL program. If no PRL program appears, then POST prompts the user to indicate that a start source is required. CBI0S is necessary for the computer to start the program. CBI0S provides a variety of services, including access to the hard disk building 106 and the drive 108. The information processing systems 102 and 102B perform a two-stage POST, known as the initial microcode loading (IML), which has been detailed It is described in US Patent No. 5, 128,995, which is hereby incorporated by reference. According to the IML, during the first POST period, the processor loads the contents of Renzhao Subsystem 242 and executes its commands' These commands include the minimum check of the addresses of certain I / O devices such as display devices and certain memory devices.

Description of the invention (19) A7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, including instructions for completing POST and handing over processor control to the operating system. During POST, the current system configuration can be determined and compared with the system configuration information that has been scheduled and pre-stored in NVRAM 248. The IML program content is specific to the system processor and is stored in a system partition (partitioiOt) of the storage device. If the storage device is a disk in a floppy disk drive 108, the system partition occupies the disk Part I. IML program content stored on the system partition—part pOST and a reference program content containing routines for setting and / or diagnosing the system hardware. The reference image content (reference image) is in P 〇S τ detects an error caused by the configuration change, and loads and executes it. The contents of the reference program can also be loaded according to a pre-determined typing sequence. If the storage device is a hard disk file 10 , The system is partitioned and stored in a protected area of this storage medium to prevent important IML program contents from being accidentally destroyed. In the IBM model 9〇 and 95 systems, the system partition protected by Yao is stored in the storage medium The last part, and occupies 3 megabytes of storage space.

Invention description 丨 2〇) Seeking a system configuration When the settings are changed and the preset keystroke sequence is executed, the configuration changes can be proposed by the user. First, the information processing system determines whether there has been a hardware configuration change from IML to POST (block 5〇3). This decision is made by comparing the current system configuration with the predetermined system configuration stored in NVRAM 248. If there is no change, it is determined whether there is a user-initiated configuration change (block 504). This decision can be made by detecting the default typing sequence performed by the user in a known manner. If no user-initiated configuration changes, the operating system is loaded (block 505). However, if POST determines that the hardware configuration of the system has changed, it collects and communicates certain system configuration information on the network before loading the operating system (block 506). The system configuration information may contain one or more error codes for the failure of the network card ‘NVRAM’ CMOS and BIOS data area and their information. Then load the reference program content from the system partition and execute it to store the current system configuration in NVRAM 248. If POST determines that a user has initiated an attempt to change the system configuration, then decide whether to allow the system to split access (block 507). If not allowed, the system configuration information is collected and communicated on the network (block 508), and then loaded into the operating system (block 509). However, if the system is allowed to split access, it is determined whether the access requires authorization from an administrator information processing system such as server 102 (block 510). If not, load and execute the contents of the benchmark program to allow The user changes the system configuration. If system split access requires authorization, the system configuration information change request containing the identification of the system configuration to be changed is communicated to the server 1 2 0 through the network communication network card 231 (block 5 1 1 ). If the server 1 2 0 allows access to the system partition, then -23-This paper standard is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) ▼ Binding 涑• I-1 ^ — I-I— -I-A7 B7 Printed by the Employees ’Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5.

Please refer to Figure 6 for a more detailed flowchart of the steps taken during blocks 506 and 508. When a system configuration change is detected (whether it is a hardware change or a user-initiated configuration change), the network communication network card 23 1 is activated (block 601). The information processing system then loads a driver to collect the predetermined system configuration from NVRAM 248 (block 602: ^ This driver then collects the current hardware configuration of the system from different devices (block 6〇3). Collect error-related information, that is, the error code of the hardware configuration change or user access request information (block 604).

Therefore, when an organizational system designer starts to solve a particular problem, they do n’t just need to design individual objects and how to make these objects related to each other. You must also design the core functions of the organization system (that is, the parts of the organization system that are not affected by the possible customization and expansion of the organization system consumers) and the expansion functions of the organization system (that is, the organization system accepts possible customization And the expanded part). After taking it, the final value of the organization is not only the quality of the object design, but also those aspects related to the organizational system that represent the core functions, and those aspects that represent the design options for the expansion functions. ZAF-organization Institutional Examples Although those familiar with the industry know that organizational system design is bound to be a recurring and repeating red sequence, in the following, the most simplified organizational structure is cited as an example of design choice. However, please also note that this is just an example organizational system used in this article to illustrate and explain the organization in detail so that readers of this article can clearly understand the advantages and effects of the present invention. The designer of the organization system selects objects from the so-called problem area (pr〇blem domain) to decide which objects are needed by an organization. The problem area is an abstract view of the current specific problem. An example of the problematic area of the organizational mechanism selected in this example is the animal enclosure. The specific problem is the design-an institution that can assist the animal steward to care for and keep the animals in the garden. In the zoo management group (ZAF) of this example, the system designer will consider the animal problem area and decide that any ZAF must include-a representative of this paper standard (please read the notes on the back before filling in this education ). 装., ^ Τ 旅 27-V. Description of Invention 丨 25) A7 B7 The Ministry of Economic Affairs Central Sample Bureau Employee Consumer Cooperative prints the relationship between animal managers and animals (that is, represents how animal managers care for animals) . Designers of organizational systems may also recognize that Guzhong animals are usually housed in cages, pens, water tanks and other types of confinement units. Therefore, the designer of the organization system will first think that the organization system must contain institutions that represent all these fundamental entities and relationships. When starting the design process, the designer of the organization system may start the work with a so-called category diagram. The outline map is used to describe high-level organizations and how these organizations are related to each other. Figure 7 is an example of the outline of the organization ZAF. Each organization in this outline represents a group of objects that can perform special functions. For the sake of explanation, it is assumed that the organization system $ recounter decided that ZAF should be composed of four high-level institutions: zoo management institution, animal stewardship institution, animal institution and confinement unit institution. As shown in FIG. 7, the zoo management agency is designed to use an animal stewardship agency to manage the zoo. Therefore, the zoo management organization can be regarded as having a usage relationship with the animal management organization. The zoo management agency has been designed to be responsible for the overall control of ZAF. Therefore, the zoo management organization is responsible for the assignment of the animal management agency. Please also note that the designer of the organization system designs the zoo management organization as a ZAF core function, which means that the zoo management organization will not be affected by possible customization and expansion. The C in the outline box is to mark this point. Please also note that the use relationship between the zoo management agency and the animal management agency has also been designed. Therefore, it cannot be customized for consumers of the organization system. The animal management agency is designed to be responsible for the care and feeding of the animals in the park. The paper standard is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297) (please read the notes on the back and then fill out this page).

Therefore, it uses animal institutions and confinement unit institutions to perform its tasks. However, the difference from the design of zoo management institutions is that the organization system sets the animal administrator The design of the organization is an extension (Extension) function. This point indicates that the design of the animal management organization can be modified and / or expanded by the organization system designer to explain the future care and feeding needs. This point is marked with E in the animal management organization In the outline box, the organization system designer designs the animal organization to represent the animal relationship between the animals in the park and the animal administrator. Because of the zoo The change in the number of animals is regular, so animal institutions must also be designed with extended functions. Confinement unit institutions can interact with animal administrators because they represent individual confinement units such as pens, water tanks and cages. Confinement unit institutions are like animals Institutions have generally been designed as an expansion function, so that they can handle future customization and expansion needs. However, please note that even if animal managers, zoo animals and confinement units and other institutions have been designed for expansion functions, these institutions The relationship between them is still designed to be the core function of ZAF. In other words, even if ZAF consumers need to be given flexibility regarding animal managers, park animals and confinement units, ZAF consumers cannot be allowed to change, etc. How do organizations relate to each other? The designer of the organization system will then design the classification and relationship of the organizations shown in the figure. The definition of classification is a group of similar objects. Therefore, the classification can be regarded as an abstract concept of objects or Definition of object type-from the perspective of computer system, a single object represents a group of encapsulated Data and a set of operations that can be performed on the data by a computer system.

This is why we say that the information contained in an object is encapsulated by the 4H object (enCapSulate). Each classification definition includes a data definition that defines the information controlled by the object, and an operation definition that defines the operations performed by the object on the data controlled by each object. In other words, a classification definition is defined by defining an operation or a group of operations performed on the defined data (please note that operations are sometimes also called methods, method programs, and / or component_functions) How an object acts and how to respond to other objects β As far as the whole snake is concerned, the data of the defined operation can be regarded as the behavior of the object. So in essence, a classification definition can define the behavior of its constituent objects. Figure 8 shows the 00 classification diagram designed by the organizational system designer for the basic classification of ZAF. Each classification representation contains its relationship with the organization of FIG. For example, we can find that the classification of animal managers comes from the organization of animal managers as shown in the figure. The basic classification of ZAF includes: zoo administrator classification, which is part of the zoo management organization; animal registration classification, which is part of the animal management organization; animal management classification, which is also part of the animal management organization; confinement unit registration Classification, which is also part of the animal management agency; Animal classification, which is part of the animal agency; and Confinement unit classification, which is part of the confinement unit organization. Please also note again that the relationship between these classifications has been designed with ZAF as a core function so that it cannot be finally modified by ZAF consumers.

It should be found that by designing the animal administrator organization as an expansion function, the flexibility of the system can be provided. 3 Add / Delete—Animal () operation and increase / delete—Animal—Administrator operation—these are responsible for interacting with the user X In order to define the additional animal classifications and objects in the garden 'and remove the classifications and objects that are no longer needed. In addition, the addition of zoos and the removal of animals are quite natural moves. Β Add / Delete-Confinement Unit () operation is responsible for creating new categories and objects of confinement units, and removing categories and / or objects that are no longer needed. In addition, the designer of the organization system designs ZAF to provide flexibility by designing animal institutions and confinement early institutions as expanded functions. Turning now to Fig. 8, the definition of animal manager classification has a usage relationship with animal registration, animal, confinement unit registration and confinement unit classification. Since ZAF consumers are allowed to customize and expand the classification of animal stewards, animals and confinement units, the value of ZAF can be increased, so these classifications are designed to expand functionality. However, the behavior of changing the registration classification of animals and confinement units will make the 32-this paper standard apply to the Chinese National Standard Falcon (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page).

Description of Invention P〇)' ~ 'The basic operation of ZAF is in chaos. Therefore, these classifications are designed as core functions. Fig. 10 is a classification diagram of animal administrators. However, before describing the content of FIG. 10, I would like to point out that the classification definition shown in FIG. 10 is a simple order called classification hierarchy and so on. Represents the most generalized / conceptual classification in a classification hierarchy, such as animal steward classification, which is called the basic classification of the hierarchy. The order of classification in the classification hierarchy is from the most general to the least general (ie From general to specific classification order). Less general classifications (such as feeder classifications) can be regarded as inheriting characteristics from more general classifications (in this case, animal manager classifications). Therefore, the feeders, veterinarians and temperature controllers in the classification definition can be said to be sub-categories of the animal administrator classification. The inheritance mechanism will be described in more detail in the description accompanying Figure 丨 1. As shown in FIG. 10, the animal administrator classifies the operation definition containing -single, that is, the inspection-animal () (check_animals) operation definition. Readers should also note that the definition of animal steward classification is marked as an Abstract classification. Abstract classification is not designed to make the created object part of it, but is used to define a common interface / protocol for its sub-categories. When at least one of the operations definition of a certain category is purely virtual operation definition, the category can be said to be an abstract category. The design purpose of pure virtual job definition is only to define the sub-category definition of the job-common interface. In other words, the design of actual behaviors (ie data and operations) is left to the sub-categories themselves. In the example of classification of animal stewards, subcategories such as feeders, silent doctors, and temperature controllers define the specific implementation of the pure virtual inspection-animal 0 job definition contained in the animal stewards classification. When a certain operation is set to zero -33-The paper scale is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CMS) Α4 specification (210χ: 297 gala) (please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) • Install.

It is very important to define the point to be noted, that a certain-virtual operation piece must be recognized by all the children, so that the requested object (4 corpse objects) can use the sub-classification to constitute the object (called the servo object) and == 道 _ 服 物 之Material classification. For example, every time an object defined by the object classification needs to be performed-a special action, the person interacts with the animal manager object. Because these objects are set in the animal manager of the basic classification of clumsy elephants and remain in the definition of the sub-classification of the inspection_animal 0 operation, the zoo administrator has special knowledge of «Guan Ren (children of the service object). So convenient; separate the person who needs the action (the part of the zoo manager's object) from the implementation of the action: the type (that is, the object classified by the animal manager subclass). Designs that make use of abstract classification features (such as ZAF design) are called polymorphie designs. The Ministry of Economic Affairs Central Bureau of Standards and Staff ’s consumer cooperation to produce polymorphic designs is extremely important for 00 organization system design because it allows certain issues The way of implementation (referred to as the way of implementation) can be changed or expanded without affecting the organization that depends on the action actually performed. In other words, the client object only needs to say that certain objects are performing a certain function, and there is no need to understand the actual implementation of these functions. This is a way in which a properly designed organizational system can be customized and expanded immediately to meet future needs. As mentioned earlier, the designer of the organizational system Ao calculated that ZAF allows animal stewardship objects to interact with animals and confinement unit objects to perform their tasks. Figure 11 is a classification diagram of the abstract classification animal classification hierarchy. Because the animal taxonomy department is responsible for representing the behavioral characteristics of the animals in the park, the organizer system designer-34 This paper scale is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm printed by the Ministry of Economic Affairs Central Standards Bureau employee consumer cooperatives A7 B7 Fifth, the description of the invention (32) Design abstract classification animals in a way that reflects this responsibility. As shown in the figure, the animal classification definition in the example includes the data definition of feed_freq, location and temperature— The range (temp_range), and the operation-defined acquisition_temperature_range () (get_temp_range ()), feeding (), need_food0 (needs_food), need_veterinary_inspection () (needs_vet_visit ()) and veterinary_ Check () (vet_visit ()). For the purpose of this overview of the organization system, it is not necessary to develop the details of each definition. However, the data definition of temperature_range and the operation of obtaining_temperature_range 0 and feeding 0 Definition is a good example of a well-conceived organization system design choice. Feeding 0 operation definition is designed to perform the actual feeding of animals (ie through specific Feed device to perform, not shown in this device garden.) The feeding () operation is a pure virtual operation. As mentioned before, this indicates that the design of the classification is to leave the actual organization that performs the required function to the sub-classification to define If the objects created as part of these sub-categories have specific needs, the way they need to be defined by the sub-categories is a good design choice. In ZAF, for example, each animal may require a The specific feeding device is not only difficult to define the general feeding operation, but also useless. By comparison, the designer of the organization system clearly designs the operation to obtain the _temperature_range so that it is not a pure Virtual operation definition. This point indicates that the acquisition_temperature_range 0 has been defined as a default operation. Therefore, it can be regarded as a virtual operation. The default operation is used to provide general functions for sub-categories. The classification can be used seldom to use these missing operations, or by redefining (redefinition), these missing operations can be customized or expanded. A defect is applicable to this paper standard China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297mm) (please read the back first · v / Notes and then fill out this page)-assemble · book A7 printed by the Employees Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economy __ _B7_ Explanation (%) The redefinition of business is called overriding this lack of operation. Mammals are a sub-category of classified animals, so mammals also inherit all the characteristics of classified animals. Please note that mammals can also be classified The design is an abstract classification. As mentioned earlier, this means that the classification is not designed to use the created objects as its constituent components, but is designed to provide a common interface to its sub-categories. Subcategories mammals are further divided into carnivorous and herbivorous. Since the definition of feeding operations has been reserved for sub-categories, each sub-category of carnivores and herbivores has its own definition of feeding () operations. As mentioned earlier, this is a good design choice because carnivorous animals that eat meat have different needs than grass-eating animals that eat grass. Temperature_range is a data definition of temperature range that conforms to the natural habits of a specific animal, and the acquisition_temperature_range () operation definition is designed to take out the temperature_range for a specific animal and send it back to 1. Request a customer object defined by the information. The subcategories of reptiles contain their own temperature range data definition and their own acquisition_temperature_range 0 operation definition. ZAF is designed in this way to indicate that data definitions can be overwritten just like job definitions. Since many reptiles grow in desert areas that are cold at night and hot in the day, the missing temperature_range definition is overwritten in the reptile classification to include time and temperature information (not explicitly shown in Figure 11). This is another good design choice, because it allows ZAF to adjust the helmet degree according to the time of day and the current temperature of the confinement unit itself, and the reptile confinement unit is different from other confinement units. FIG. 12 is a classification diagram of confinement unit classification with a lower-order viewpoint. This category of confinement units contains a virtual job definition: adjust_temperature〇 (adjust_ -36-order ^ (please read the precautions on the back and then fill out this page) This paper scale is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 299543 A7 __B7_ V. Description of the invention (34) temp〇). The definition of adjustment_temperature () defines the interface and mechanism (that is, heating and cooling mechanism, but not shown in the figure) used to actually adjust the temperature of the confinement element in the zoo. How do ZAF objects interact? In addition to designing objects that contain solutions to a particular problem, the designer of the organization system of the present invention must also design the interrelationships of the objects. In other words, these objects must be able to relate to each other in the way they were designed. As mentioned above, the operation method of the defined operation of an object on the data defined by the object is called the object behavior. Although objects can be characterized as automatic entities, when objects are related to each other, each object still exhibits consistent behavior, which is still very important. —The reason why sexual behavior is important is that an object relies on the consistent behavior of other objects to cause itself to exhibit consistent behavior. In fact, the behavior is so important that the behavior of an object is usually called The contract between this object and other objects. When an object does not exhibit consistent behavior, it is said to have broken its contract with other objects. Printed by the Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standard Falcon Bureau of the Ministry of Economy When an operation of an object requires access to data controlled by another object, the object is regarded as a customer of the other object. In order to access the data controlled by the other object, one of the client's operations is to call or invoke the operation of the other object-in order to access-the data controlled by the other object. Then execute the operation of the called object (in this case, it is a servo operation) to access and / or manipulate the data controlled by the called object.

Instructions for inventions (35) Drawings of objects that work in the garden. For the purposes of this overview, it is not necessary to analyze the interaction of all ZAF objects in detail ^ However, readers should read the following simple control flow to have a fundamental understanding of how these objects interact to solve problems. As mentioned earlier, objects are created as components of a particular category. Therefore, the zoo administrator Rida (object 706) is an object 1 that constitutes a component (actually the only component) of a zoo manager, and the object Zelda is responsible for the overall control of ZAF. All animal steward objects are registered as animal steward objects (object 700). Therefore, the object Ruida can obtain a copy of the existing animal administrator (list. Animal administrator registration) by calling the animal administrator to register the list of objects_animal-administrator (^ liSt_Z〇〇_keppers〇) operation (step). The object has been created as a component of the registration classification of animal managers. For the sake of explanation, it is assumed that it occurs every 5 minutes, and it is the part of the 5_minute-timer () operation of Ruida. Animal manager The registered object then responds with the animal steward list (step 2). This animal steward list includes the temperature inspector Tina (object? 14), veterinary student (object 740), and animal feeder Fred (object 752) 〇Each animal administrator has been created as a component of the animal administrator classification. In particular, objects such as temperature inspector Tina, veterinarian Wensheng and feeder Fred are sub-categories of temperature controller, veterinarian and feeder, etc. Components. The temperature () (TemP ()) operation is polymorphic. In other words, the inspection of objects such as objects (2) (Check-animals ()) operation does not require each adjustment-temperature (Kadjust-temp ( ) ) Special knowledge on how to perform its tasks.
