Systems and methods for contextual messaging and information routing in a distributed ledger network are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method may include a distributed application executed by a sending entity node in a distributed ledger network: receiving a message or communication from a sending entity; identifying a context for the message or communication; retrieving capabilities of other nodes in the distributed ledger network; identifying potential receiving entities for the message or communication based on the capabilities; retrieving routing preferences for the sending entity; applying the routing preferences for the sending entity to identify a receiving entity from the potential receiving entities; and sending the message or communication to a receiving node for the receiving entity using the routing preferences, wherein the receiving node is configured to route the message or communication to the receiving entity using routing preferences for the receiving entity.

In one embodiment, a device obtains quality of experience metrics for an online application. The device obtains network metrics for one or more network paths over which traffic for the online application was routed. The device identifies a lack of correlation between the quality of experience metrics for the online application and the network metrics for the one or more network paths over which traffic for the online application was routed. The device disables, based on the lack of correlation, explicit probing of the one or more network paths.

The first network device generates, based on a first flexible algorithm of the plurality of associated flexible algorithms, first routing information to the second network device. The first flexible algorithm corresponds to a first network topology, the first network topology is a network topology in which the first network device is located, and the first routing information is used to send a packet to the second network device in the first network topology. One location identifier corresponds to a plurality of associated flexible algorithms, and routing information in different network topologies is generated based on different associated flexible algorithms.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media including software logic are provided for optimizing Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) traffic in a telecommunications network. In one embodiment, systems and methods include, with a current state of one or more inter-Autonomous Systems (AS) links, causing performance of an action in the telecommunication network, determining a metric based on the action to determine an updated current state of the one or more inter-AS links, and utilizing the metric to perform a further action to achieve one or more rewards associated with the one or more inter-AS links.

Dynamic and self-healing optimized traffic rerouting is provided. A system and method are described for determining and implementing optimized traffic routing decision. A route orchestration system monitors network resource performance characteristics information for identifying a traffic redirection triggering event and for determining an optimized traffic control decision based on the network resource performance characteristics information. The decision may include software defined networking (SDN) instructions that may be communicated to one or more network resources (e.g., PE devices, P devices, and/or routers) that may cause traffic to be rerouted the one or more targeted servers. For example, the optimized traffic control decision may be determined to improve load balancing amongst performing servers and other network resources in the network while reducing or minimizing administrative costs. Network resources may include a programmatic component that allows the optimized traffic control decision determined by the route orchestration system to be implemented by the resource.

A Self-Describing Packet block (SDPB) is defined that allows concurrent processing of various fixed headers in a packet block defined to take advantage of multiple cores in a networking node forwarding path architecture. SPDB allows concurrent processing of various pieces of header data, metadata, and conditional commands carried in the same data packet by checking a serialization flag set upon creation of the data packet, without needing to serialize the processing or even parsing of the packet. When one or h more commands in one or more sub-blocks may be processed concurrently, the one or more commands are distributed to multiple processing resources for processing the commands in parallel. This architecture allows multiple unique functionalities each with their own separate outcome (execution of commands, doing service chaining, performing telemetry, allows virtualization and path steering) to be performed concurrently with simplified packet architecture without incurring additional encapsulation overhead.

A system for selecting an electronic communication pathway from a pool of potential pathways. The system includes a network communication routing hub operating on at least a server wherein the network communication routing hub selects an electronic communication pathway from a plurality of electronic communication pathways. The at least a server is configured to include an authorization module wherein the authorization module is configured to authenticate each device of the plurality of remote devices. The system includes a pathway selection module operating on the at least a server wherein the pathway selection module is configured to select based on a pathway probability variable a pathway from the plurality of electronic communication pathways and transmit an outgoing communication over the selected pathway to a remote device of the plurality of remote devices associated with the selected pathway.

A routing method for routing an application data stream from a routing device in a vehicle to a receiving device. The routing device has available to it a plurality of communication arrangements. Before a movement of the vehicle, at least one parameter representative of the performance is estimated along a planned itinerary for each communication arrangement. Theoretical routing rules are then defined based on the estimated parameters and application requirements. During the movement of the vehicle, at least one parameter representative of the performance is estimated for each communication arrangement. The application stream is then routed by using routing rules determined in response to a comparison between the parameters representative of the performance estimated before movement and the corresponding parameters estimated during the movement.

A node mesh contains an originating node and several node groups, each node group consisting of one or more nodes with interfaces connected to other nodes of the node group. Each node of a node group has an associated route table with an association between an applied DC voltage and an output interface to couple the input signal to. When the originating node outputs a DC voltage accompanied by differential signaling, each node in turn directs the DC voltage and differential signaling to an output interface as directed by the node local route table to a local termination in a node, which may be coupled to a training processor of inference processor for machine learning applications.

A node mesh contains an originating node coupled to one or more nodes, each node having an communications interface input and a communications interface output. Each node has a route table with an association between a header amplitude and an output interface, such that a header having a particular amplitude causes the input node which received the message to couple the message to an associated communications interface output of the node. When the originating node outputs a message with a header amplitude, each node of the node mesh in turn directs the message to an output interface as directed by the node local route table to a terminating node of the node mesh, where the terminating node may be a training processor or inference processor for machine learning applications.
