Definitions
- program-controlled devices A large part of the electronic devices or devices is meanwhile program-controlled (program-controlled devices). They contain microprocessors, operating systems and software applications (programs). Examples are convincing machine personal computer and telephone terminals, but also work ⁇ , to name just a few. In many cases, these devices are connected to a communication network.
- a program update must be carried out, for example, on program-controlled devices of a communications network, e.g. Transfer terminals and activated there. If the program update is to be carried out simultaneously for many program-controlled devices, simultaneous transmission can lead to heavy load peaks in the communication network. This is especially the case when the program update involves larger amounts of data.
- program updates sometimes can not be activated without interruption to the program-controlled devices. So z. For example, a personal computer is frequently shut down and restarted after a program update has been performed , so that the program update can be activated.
- Program updates are transmitted and provided in a variety of ways. So far, the willingness Position frequently on data carriers (eg CD-ROM). Increasingly, network-based program updating methods (online update) are now being used via a service access of the device or via a connection to a communication network, such as the Internet.
- a program update is entirely under the control of the user of the program-controlled device.
- the user selects the program update for the program-controlled device itself via suitable means for selection (for example an Internet web browser) and thus starts the transmission of the program update.
- suitable means for selection for example an Internet web browser
- he drives the program-controlled device as ⁇ to down to then then start again, to activate the upgrade process.
- a disadvantage is that the execution of the program update is solely in the control of the user. This is particularly problematic if important - such as security-related - program updates are not made by the user.
- a second procedure is semi-automatic.
- inform the user of the availability of a new update either a central server, or an application that is subordinate to the program-controlled device to- automatically searches for available program ⁇ updates about the communication network. If such a program update is found, a request is sent by the application to the user, if he wants to transmit and activate the program update.
- corporate communication networks is a disadvantage that it here at peak loads of Communication networks at the Ranrandêt and immediately after the provision of the program update comes.
- a third process is fully automatic. In doing so, available program updates are transmitted to the user in a centrally controlled manner without a query.
- the disadvantage here is that the individual user behavior is not taken into account.
- it can be problematic that in certain situations uninterrupted availability of the program-controlled device is important for the user, but that this is disturbed by the fully automatic program update.
- the invention has for its object to improve the transmission of program updates.
- the object is solved by the characterizing features of claim 1.
- the essential aspect of the invention is the regular Ak ⁇ tualmaschine a usage profile for the programmgesteu ⁇ erte device.
- the program update is carried out depending on this usage profile.
- the figure shows in a block diagram those components in an exemplary communication network KN, which are required to explain the inventive method for transmitting program updates for program-controlled devices in a communication network.
- the embodiment includes programmatic Einrich- obligations PGE n (eg, IP phones), a program update PA stands for in the communication network KN ⁇ available.
- PGE n eg, IP phones
- PA stands for in the communication network KN ⁇ available.
- the communication network KN user profiles BP 1 - J1 for the program-controlled devices PGE n statistical information SII n stored on the use of the program-controlled devices PGE n and updated. These may affect the typical usage times of the program-controlled devices PGE n eg, eg setting active. Can also be for example an information be bought stores that the respective program-controlled A ⁇ direction PGE regularly weekdays 8:30 to 12:30 and 13:00 to 17:45, but never in the period 20:30 to 7:00 or on weekends or Holidays is used.
- Upstream data volume that is to say the quantities of data which have been sent by the program-controlled device PGE in the direction of the communication network KN
- Downstream data volume the amount of data that has been received by the program-controlled device PGE from the direction of the communication network KN
- An application APP (in the communications network KN) administrates the transfer of program update PA to the program-controlled devices PGE n.
- the application APP transmits via the communication network KN a request information anf-i to the respective user profiles BPi_ n that Wenig least has the content ⁇ that a program update PA is available.
- a response information ant-II n is, inter alia, with the statistical In ⁇ formations SII n with respect to the use of the programmgesteu ⁇ Erten devices PGE n sent to the application APP of the realized in the communication network KN user profiles BPi_ n.
- This statistical information si contain - as shown above - in addition to statistical information on times of use further statistical information such. Up and Downstream data volumes, incoming and outgoing calls and user activity.
- the update PA is then, if necessary, based on this response information in response to further n by the program-controlled devices PGE or other components in the communication network CN performs predetermined parameters carried.
- the program-controlled devices PGE or other components in the communication network CN performs predetermined parameters carried.
- n program-controlled devices requested by eight be ⁇ PGEi- gives n as follows:
- the application APP could then use this statistical information sii- n and the consideration of compliance or deviations make a group formation.
- the program update PA can then be carried out jointly for the individual group members.
- the consideration of other parameters is - such as the statistically observable load of the communi ⁇ nikationsnetzes CN - conceivable.
- the communication network KN is usually subject to a special load between 7.30 am and 9.30 am due to the general log-on activity at the beginning of the working hours of many users.
- a second embodiment relates to the transmission and subsequent activation of a program update PA to a series of program-controlled devices PGE n (z. B. personnel computer) in a communication network CN of a company according to an update schedule APL.
- the update ⁇ plan APL can after determining optional feedback to the users of the program-controlled devices PGE s done with the content that their program-controlled devices PGE n day XY be updated on time Z.
- the participating communication networks KN may DA in both an intranet, the Internet, a company ⁇ communications network or a public communications network - PSTN - acting, in each case a vote is to be made to the ent ⁇ speaking communication protocols.
- the user profiles can be realized both in the program-controlled device PGEi_ n itself in a memory provided for this purpose and in the communication network KN-for example in a memory of a server.
