Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An approach to performing graph-based computation uses one or both of an efficient startup approach and efficient control using process pools. Efficient startup of a graph-based computation involves precomputing data representing a runtime structure of a computation graph such that an instance of the computation graph is formed using the precomputed data for the required type of graph to form the runtime data structure for the instance of the computation graph. Pools of processes that are each suitable for performing computations associated with one or more vertices of the computation graphs are formed such that at runtime, members of these pools of processes are dynamically …

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 7, 2003 and granted April 10, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 7, 2023.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 7, 2025.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
