Techniques for dynamically adjusting Connected Mode Discontinuous Reception (CDRX) parameters are discussed herein. For example, a base station may receive information associated with downlink data to be sent to a user equipment (UE) and/or information associated with the UE itself. The base station may adjust CDRX parameters to be implemented on the UE based on the received information in order to maximize performance of the UE. In some examples, the base station may adjust CDRX parameters based on a traffic type (e.g., voice traffic, video traffic, data traffic, etc.) associated with the downlink data, UE state parameters associated with the UE, and/or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) data associated with the UE.

The present disclosure generally relates to the field of resource reservation. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a technique of reserving communication resources in a wireless communication network. A method embodiment comprises: receiving (S402), by a node of the plurality of nodes, a resource reservation message including first reservation information indicating one or more communication resources for at least one link of the wireless communication network; modifying (S404), by the node, the received resource reservation message by including second reservation information indicating one or more communication resources for a link of the node in the received resource reservation message; and transmitting (S406), by the node, the modified resource reservation message to one or more neighbor nodes of the node.

There is provided a network device for processing data packets transmitted between nodes of a network, the network device to intercept data packets of a first traffic class transmitted by a first network node and addressed to a second network node, convert the intercepted data packets into data packets of a second traffic class, and transmit the converted data packets to the second network node.

A server processers received real-time transport protocol packets from a first device to obtain sequentially ordered packets at a first buffer. The server decodes the sequentially ordered packets to obtain decoded packets at a decoder. The server encodes the decoded packets to obtain encoded packets at an encoder. The server transmits the encoded packets from the encoder to a storage unit. The server fetches the encoded packets from the storage unit at a first interval using a second buffer. The server transmits the encoded packets from the second buffer to a second device at a second interval.

Techniques are disclosed for the identification of applications from communication sessions of network traffic between client devices and the generation of application-specific metrics for network traffic associated with the applications. In one example, a router obtains metrics for a plurality of packets. The router determines a session of a plurality of sessions associated with each packet. For each determined session, the router generates metrics for the session from the metrics of the packets associated with the session and determines an application of a plurality of applications associated with the session. For each determined application, the router generates metrics for the application from the metrics of the sessions associated with the application and transmits, to a device, the metrics for the application. In some examples, the router generates the metrics for each application on a per-client, per-next-hop, or per-traffic class basis.

A packet switch that determines a time slot for closing transmission of low-priority packets based on a determination result of periods of high-priority packets having periodicity, the packet switch includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: determine, for respective input ports, the periods of the input high-priority packets; and determine a setting period of a gate control list in which the time slot for closing is set, based on the determined periods of the high-priority packets.

A method and apparatus of a network element that processes a packet in the network element is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the network element receives a data packet that includes a destination address. The network element receives a packet, with a packet switch unit, wherein the packet was received by the network element on an ingress interface. The network element further determines if the packet is to be stored in an external queue. In addition, the network element identifies the external queue for the packet based on one or more characteristics of the packet. The network element additionally forwards the packet to a packet storage unit, wherein the packet storage unit includes storage for the external queue. Furthermore, the network element receives the packet from the packet storage unit and forwards the packet to an egress interface corresponding to the external queue.
