A method, computer program and apparatus are disclosed that include accessing client data records, such as, medical records. The method may include receiving a data file at a server sent from at least one client and including client requirements. The method may also include storing the received data file locally at the server, executing an application that scans the server to determine if any new data files have been received. The method may also include storing the copied data file in a data folder stored in a file cluster, updating a table stored in a database to indicate that a new file has been stored, deleting the locally stored file from the server, and moving files specified by the client requirements from an export folder of the file cluster to the server so that the at least one client may access the exported files.

An aggregation device includes an aggregation engine circuit and a configuration circuit. The aggregation engine circuit is configured to communicate with multiple protocols and to aggregate data from the protocols into a single channel for transfer, in which the protocols are heterogeneous. The configuration circuit is coupled to the aggregation engine circuit and configured to store one or more settings that define a behavior of the aggregation engine circuit.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an information feedback method. A user equipment (UE) detects downlink transmission data in a received subframe. The UE sends a response message for the downlink transmission data to an access network device, where the response message is sent by the UE on an uplink symbol in a K.sup.th subframe after the received subframe, K is the same for any subframe arrangement in a TDD system, and K is a positive integer. The embodiments of the present disclosure are applied to the TDD system. An ACK or NACK feedback time is reduced, thereby greatly reducing a HARQ delay and meeting a transmission requirement for an ultralow delay.

An avionics switched full-duplex Ethernet communication Arinc 664p7 network (100) includes at least two independent elementary networks (N1, N2). Each elementary network includes one or more end systems (ESI) suitable to act as source end systems for data frames transmitted over the network, and one or more end systems (ES4) suitable to act as destination end systems for such data frames. Each elementary network further includes a switching function block (SW1, SW2) connected between the source (ESI) and destination (ES4) end systems. The Ethernet network is has one of the source (ESI), destination (ES4) end systems and the switching function block (SW1, SW2) includes timers (204) suitable to generate a common piece of timing information to be sent to the other devices of the elementary network in-order to enable the transmission of the data frames over the elementary network by one of the source end systems (ESI).

In a numerical control system in which a numerical controller is connected with a plurality of amplifiers via a daisy-chain serial bus, these amplifiers are grouped into a first group and a second group, and connected in an order of the amplifiers of the first group and the amplifiers of the second group from the numerical controller. Further, a communication cycle in the communication between the numerical controller and the amplifiers of the second group is set n times (n is an integer of 2 or larger) as large as a communication cycle of the first group.

In one embodiment, the techniques herein provide that a node may receive a packet from a neighboring node in a low power and lossy network (LLN). The node may then extract, from the packet, a link-layer source address from a link layer header and an internet protocol (IP) source address from an IP header. The node may then determine whether the neighboring node originated the packet and, based on that determination, the node may correlate the link-layer source address with the IP source address to provide neighbor discovery.
