A computer server receives sensor data via a cellular wireless network from each of a plurality of automobiles in a geographical area. In each automobile of the plurality of automobiles the sensor data is received from sensors located in the respective automobile. The sensor data of the respective automobile may include a time stamp of the sensor data and at least one parameter of an external environment of the respective automobile. The computer server may further determine an external environmental parameter of the geographical area based on the sensor data received from the plurality of automobiles in the geographical area via the cellular wireless network. The external environmental parameter relates to the external environment of the plurality of automobiles in the geographical area. The computer server may transmit the external environmental parameter to multiple automobiles of the plurality of automobiles.

A novel algorithm for packet classification that is based on a novel search structure for packet classification rules is provided. Addresses from all the containers are merged and maintained in a single Trie. Each entry in the Trie has additional information that can be traced back to the container from where the address originated. This information is used to keep the Trie in sync with the containers when the container definition dynamically changes.

A system comprises an edge services controller configured to: compute, based on a physical topology of physical links that connect a plurality of network interface cards (NICs) that comprise embedded switches and processing units coupled to the embedded switches, a virtual topology comprising a strict subset of the physical links; and program the virtual topology into the respective processing units of the NICs to cause the processing units of the NICs to send data packets via physical links in the strict subset of the physical links.

Technologies for providing out-of-order network packet management and selective data flow splitting include a computing device. The computing device includes circuitry to identify a service data flow associated with a set of packets to be sent to a recipient computing device. The circuitry is also to determine a target quality of service for the service data flow, determine, as a function of the target quality of service, one or more radio links on which to send the packets, including determining whether to split the service data flow over multiple radio links, and send the packets through the determined one or more radio links.

Distributed ledger-based networks (DLNs) employ self-executing codes, also known as smart contracts, to manage interactions occurring on the networks, which may result in the generation of a massive amount of DLN state data representing the interactions and participants thereof. The instant disclosure discloses systems, apparatus and methods that allow interactions to occur on the DLNs without modification to stored data, thereby improving the storage capabilities of the networks.

A cloud server includes an equipment information storage that stores equipment table information; an equipment controller that generates control information; an encapsulator that generates control notification information by encapsulating the control information and adding header information for specifying a control device as a sending destination; and a notification information sender that sends the control notification information to the control device based on the header information. Upon acquiring the control notification information from the server, the control device removes the header information from the control notification information and decapsulates to extract the control information, and sends the extracted control information to a controlled equipment.
