Techniques for detecting path failures and reducing packet loss as a result of such failures are described for use within a data center or other environment. For example, a source and/or destination access node may create and/or maintain information about health and/or connectivity for a plurality of ports or paths between the source and destination device and core switches. The source access node may spray packets over a number of paths between the source access node and the destination access node. The source access node may use the information about connectivity for the paths between the source or destination access nodes and the core switches to limit the paths over which packets are sprayed. The source access node may spray packets over paths between the source access node and the destination access node that are identified as healthy, while avoiding paths that have been identified as failed.

Devices, systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for data communication to and from a vehicle. A device is provided that includes memory storing processor-executable instructions; and at least one processor in communication with the memory that executes the stored instructions to: receive, from at least one user on the vehicle, at least one request for data communication; identify a plurality of communication links available at a current location of the moving vehicle; form an adaptive bonded communication link using the plurality of communication links to aggregate throughput across the plurality of communication links for the requested data communication, wherein the adaptive bonded communication link is configured to adapt to data communication requirements for the requested data communication and to data communication characteristics of the plurality of communication links as the vehicle moves.

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for utilizing parallel links to improve sub-network availability and latency performance for ATC traffic. An embodiment operates by receiving a generated message. The type of the generated message is determined, where the type is an air traffic control message or a non-air traffic control message. Based on the type of message, communication links are selected, where the communication links include parallel transmission links or a serial link. The method continues by copying the generated message and transmitting the copied message using the selected communication links. The method waits to receive an acknowledgement indicating receipt of the transmitted message. Upon identifying an acknowledgement, any of the copied messages not yet retransmitted are deleted.

The present technology relates to a signal processing apparatus, a signal processing method, and a program by which, in reproducing transmitted encoded data in real time, buffer overflow can be prevented from occurring on a reception apparatus side even if it is transmitted with a compression rate of the encoded data being varied in a manner that depends on communication condition. Encoded data including transmitted audio data is buffered by a reception buffer. At this time, the quantity of encoded data buffered by the reception buffer is managed in units of processing according to an encoding method. The present technology is applicable to a real-time content reproduction system utilizing a communication system.

A kind of self-adaptive network congestion control method based on SCPS-TP, which includes the following steps: The SCPS-TP's gateway source-end receives and transmits the packets to destination end; Judge if there is new packet received in accordance with the analyzed ACK; If there is no new packet received, when the duplicate ACK counter increase to a certain value, change the window size's growth pattern to linear self-adaptive pattern; If there is new packet received, the congestion control is in the exponential growth pattern. After window is enlarged, Diff is bigger than the set threshold value and the congestion control method is changed to linear self-adaptive pattern; If congestion control is in the linear self-adaptive pattern, adjust window size in accordance with Diff; The SCPS-TP's gateway source-end sends the packets in the packet loss buffer to destination end and sends new packets in accordance with the size of congestion window.

A network endpoint receiver controls packet flow from a transmitter. Packets are received via a network in packet traffic according to a push mode, where the transmitter controls pacing of transmitting the packets. Characteristics related to the packet traffic are monitored at the receiver. The monitored characteristics are compared to reception performance parameters, and based on the comparison, a decision is made to switch from the push mode to a pull mode for controlling the packet flow. The receiver transmits a pull mode request packet to the transmitter, where the pull mode request packet indicates a pacing of subsequent packets transmitted by the transmitter to the receiver in accordance with the pull mode. Pacing of further transmitted packets may be controlled by subsequent pull mode request packets sent over time to the transmitter by the receiver. Similarly, the receiver may control additional transmitters to transmit at equal or different rates.

A congestion notification system includes a networking device coupling a sender device to a receiver device. The networking device is configured to detect a congestion situation. When the networking device will provide a first congestion notification in a first packet received from the sender device in response to detecting the congestion situation, as well as retrieve sender device information from the first packet and store that sender device information in a database. Following the sending of the first packet to the receiver device, the networking device receives a second packet that was sent from the receiver device prior to the receiver device receiving the first packet. In response to determining that the second packet includes the sender device information that is stored in the database, the networking device provides a second congestion notification in the second packet. The networking device then sends the second packet to the sender device.
