It is an objective of the present disclosure to reduce computational complexity for obtaining a network topology configuration capable of efficiently accommodating a plurality of traffic demands assumed between nodes present in a network.

A device of the present disclosure includes: a computation traffic generation unit that creates a traffic demand matrix whose elements are values individually obtained by demands between nodes present in a target network area from a plurality of traffic demand matrices created based on predicted traffic demands between the nodes; and a network topology generation unit that generates a network topology based on the traffic demand matrix generated by the computation traffic generation unit and port information of the nodes in the network area.

Service assurance is provided. A low priority pod corresponding to a low priority service in an orchestration platform that is to be evicted due to a predicted peak load period of a high priority service is identified based on analysis of historical and resource information. The low priority service corresponding to the low priority pod that is to be evicted due to the predicted peak load period of the high priority service is marked as an assured service for a guaranteed run in response to receiving an input from a user who was notified regarding eviction of the low priority pod. The low priority pod corresponding to the low priority service that is to be evicted due to the predicted peak load period of the high priority service is provisioned on a second host node prior to the eviction of the low priority pod from a first host node.

Methods and systems are provided for bitrate adaptation of a video asset to be streamed to a client device for playback. The method includes selecting a representation from a manifest which expresses a set of representations available for each chunk of the video asset and generating a dynamic manifest for the video asset in which the representation selected for the at least one chunk is recommended for streaming to the client device. The selection of the representation recommended for the chunk may be based on at least one of historic viewing behavior of previous viewers of the chunk, content analysis information for the chunk, a level of available network bandwidth, a level of available network storage, and data rate utilization information of network resources including current, average, peak, and minimum data rate of network resources.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may configure a bandwidth part (BWP) switching configuration of a user equipment in connection with a dual active protocol stack (DAPS) handover based at least in part on a BWP switching rule; and perform the DAPS handover. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A system for determining ownership information for users of electronic resources includes at least one computing device configured to receive a trigger request and obtain first resource usage data and first resource identity data from a first resource provider using a first resource collection engine. The system also is configured to obtain second resource usage data and second resource identity data from a second resource provider using a second resource collection engine. The system is also configured to select one or more users of interest based on the first resource usage data, the first resource identity data, the second resource usage data and the second resource identity data and to determine ownership of the selected one or more users of interest.

A network management system may allocate different amounts of bandwidth to different types of data traffic. The traffic types may be distinguished by their source device address, and whether the source device is part of, or external to, a first network. Packets may also be marked by their sender with information to identify a traffic type, and the marking may be used to determine the packet's treatment. The allocations given to the various types of traffic may be dynamically modified with changing traffic demands and conditions.
