Method for down-loading data
First Claim
1. A method for down-loading data from an upper processor to a plurality of lower processors of a mobile communications switching system in a process of resetting the processors, the method comprising:
- requesting an information down-load from the lower processors to the upper processor;
accessing a memory of the upper processor containing the requested information down-load;
determining whether the accessed information has an error;
grouping the lower processors with a representative address; and
creating the accessed information in an IPC format and transferring the IPC format information by using the group representative address.

Abstract
A program and a method is provided that simultaneously down-loads S/W programs or data onto a plurality of processors by using a multiplexing mode in a process of resetting the processors in a mobile communication switching system. The method can include requesting by a selected processor of the plurality of processors an information down-load from an upper processor, accessing a memory of the upper processor, determining whether the accessed information has an error or not, grouping the lower processors using a representative address, creating the accessed error free information in an IPC format and transferring the IPC format information using a grouped representative address. The programs or the data are down loaded at the same time onto the plurality of processors from the upper processor by using the multiplexing mode in the process of resetting the processors in the mobile communication switching system, which serves to reduce or minimize the shutdown of the system because of a rapid down-load completion.

10. A method for down-loading data from a first processor to a plurality of second processors while resetting the processors, the method comprising:
-
transmitting a request for an information down-load from the plurality of second processors to the first processor;
accessing once a memory of the first processor for the requested information;
grouping the second processors using a prescribed processor address; and
assembling the accessed information in a prescribed format and transferring the assembled requested information to at least two second processors using a group representative address. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
