Apparatus and methods for performing a Million Instructions per Second (MIPS) analysis for a data stack of a user equipment (UE) are disclosed. The method includes (i) receiving an input for a Monte Carlo simulation, the input including a requirement for one or more use cases, a processor specification, and a user-specified function; (ii) determining a traffic model, a number of packets to be run for each use case, and a seed value for the Monte Carlo simulation; (iii) performing the Monte Carlo simulation based on the input and the traffic model to generate a simulation result; and (iv) determining a recommended configuration of processor cores for the data stack based on the simulation result.

A method for delivering data in a digital transmitter including generating service layer signaling (SLS) information comprising information for discovery and acquisition of at least one content component: generating service list table (SLT) information including bootstrap information for acquiring the SLS information; encapsulating the at least one content component, the SLS information and the SLT information via UDP/IP; and transmitting a broadcast signal comprising the at least one content component, the SLS information and the SLT information.

A device may receive network protocol data identifying a network protocol trace associated with network devices of a network, and may divide the network protocol trace into multiple segments. The device may identify a set of segments, in the multiple segments, that includes a first segment and second segments related to the first segment, and may process the multiple segments, in parallel, to determine first results data corresponding to the multiple segments. The device may process the second segments, in parallel, to determine second results data, and may combine the first results data and the second results data to generate final results data, wherein the final results data indicate utilization by the network devices of a network protocol associated with the network. The device may perform one or more actions based on the final results data.

A data intake and query system collects performance data from client devices and host devices and stores the performance data in one or more indexes. The system is further configured to facilitate correlation of the performance data collected from the client devices and the separate performance data collected from the host devices. For example, based on a determination that one or more identifiers stored in a portion of performance data received from client devices match one or more identifiers stored in a portion of the performance data received from host devices, a data intake and query may determine that the data portions are related. The portions of performance data, for example, may correspond to events the data intake and query system derives from the performance data collected from both client devices and host devices.

A method of configuring at least one switch involves configuring the at least one switch to direct communication to at least one of a plurality of computers according to at least one outcome of simulated interaction of a plurality of virtual network routers. A method of simulating interaction of a plurality of virtual network routers involves: causing a first at least one processor circuit to simulate the interaction of the plurality of virtual network routers; and causing a second at least one processor circuit, different from the first at least one processor circuit, to simulate the interaction of the plurality of virtual network routers redundantly to the simulated interaction of the plurality of virtual network routers on the first at least one processor circuit. Apparatuses and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

A system and approach that may provide a protocol independent environment to configure an ASC (application specific control) device in, for example, a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. By using this system and approach, a user may reuse a device configuration already done for a device of one protocol in a device of another protocol without being required to reconfigure the latter device from scratch. This way may help a user to reduce the total setup time required to fully configure a device. The reduction may be done by simply exporting the configuration information from the first device and then importing the configuration information into the second device, where the internal protocol specific details can be handled internally by a tool. Thus, a user need not bother with the details that are in the background of the moving a configuration among devices of different protocols.

A method for reducing a number of copies required to send a data sample with a Data Distribution Service (DDS) type in a system using an Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service (DDS) and a Real-Time Publish Subscribe (RTPS) protocol is provided. Key to the invention is the definition/creation of a memory representation of the data samples for the DDS type that is equal to the network representation of the data samples for the DDS type. Sending of data samples to the DataReader is accomplished without making a serialization copy of the data samples, and for the receiving the data samples from the DataWriter is accomplished without making a deserialization copy of the data samples. Further, a method is provided for accessing to a network representation of data samples with a DDS type in a system using an OMG DDS and a RTPS protocol.

A technique for differentiation controllers and reconcilers for software operators in a distributed computing environment is described herein. In one example of the present disclosure, a system can include a node of a distributed computing environment that includes a container configured to execute a controller associated with a software operator to. The controller can determine a reconciler that is associated with the container, detect an event that is associated with the reconciler, and invoke the reconciler via a selected communication protocol. The system can include the reconciler configured to process the event in response to being invoked by the controller and to provide a response associated with the event to the controller via the selected communication protocol.

A packet processing technique can include receiving a packet, and parsing the packet based on a protocol field to generate a parse result vector. The parse result vector is used to select between forwarding the packet to a virtual machine executing on a host processing integrated circuit, forwarding the packet to a physical media access controller, multicasting the packet to multiple virtual machines executing on the host processing integrated circuit, and sending the packet to a hypervisor.

An instant messaging system comprising an instant messaging server to which a plurality of client devices are connectable to the Internet; where client device(s) belonging to a user is connectable to the instant messaging server by using an identifier of the user; wherein in a default mode an instant message is sent from a client device to the instant messaging server for routing to an intended recipient via Internet connection; and if the Internet connection is not available the instant message is routed via another electronic link to the instant messaging server for routing to an intended recipient, the another electronic link using a session-based protocol is disclosed.
