Lockable network testing device
A network testing device may be linked to a dedicated remote server e.g. a cloud-based server having a unique, pre-determined address. The testing device may be configured to cease operating, become locked or limited in testing functionality after a number of startup cycles, days of use, a certain date, etc. Once the testing device is locked, the testing device may be re-activated only by establishing a connection to the server. A database of network testing devices currently in use may be provided. Once a testing device is lost or stolen, the database may be remotely updated to prevent reactivation of that testing device, so as to render the lost or stolen testing device useless for an unauthorized operator of the testing device.
Reduction of network congestion
A technology is provided for reducing network congestion. A data loss rate pertaining to a datastream between a client and a server may be determined. The datastream may comprise data packets sent and received between the client and the server. The client and the server may send to and receive from each other data packets encoded using random linear network coding (RLNC) in response to determining that the data loss rate is higher than or equal to a threshold.
Systems and methods for performing load balancing and message routing for short message peer to peer protocol
The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for performing load balancing and message routing by a device intermediary to a plurality of short message peer to peer (SMPP) clients and a plurality of SMPP servers. The device can receive a request from an SMPP client to establish an SMPP session, replace a first sequence identifier in the request with a second sequence identifier generated by the device, and store a mapping of the second sequence identifier to the first sequence identifier. The device can select an SMPP server to forward the request with the second sequence identifier and receive a response from the SMPP server with the second sequence identifier. The device can identify, from the mapping, the first sequence identifier and the connection to the SMPP client using the second sequence identifier to forward the SMPP response with the first sequence identifier.
Dynamic window adjustments in a streaming environment
A first stream operator can receive a first tuple including a first set of attributes to be stored in a first window and a second tuple including a second set of attributes to be stored in a second window. The first window and the second window can each have an eviction policy. In response to triggering the eviction policy for the first window and the second window, the first tuple stored in the first window can be compared with the second tuple stored in the second window. Based upon the comparing, it can be determined that the first tuple and the second tuple go outside of a join threshold. In response to determining that the first tuple and the second tuple go outside of a join threshold, the eviction policy of the first window can be altered.
Queue-based adaptive chunk scheduling for peer-to-peer live streaming
A method and apparatus are described for scheduling content delivery in a peer-to-peer network, including receiving a message from a peer, classifying the received message, storing the classified message in one of a plurality of queues based on the classification, generating responses to messages based on a priority of the queue in which the classified message is stored and transmitting content to all peers in the peer-to-peer network. Also described are a method and apparatus for scheduling content delivery in a peer-to-peer network, including receiving one of a message and content from one of a content source server and a peer, classifying the received message, storing the classified message in one of a plurality of queues based on the classification, storing the received content, generating responses to messages based on a priority of the queue in which the classified message is stored and transmitting content to all other peers in the peer-to-peer network.
OPPORTUNISTIC SYNC BLOCK TRANSMISSION FOR MM WAVE NR-SS
Opportunistic synchronization block transmission for millimeter (mm) wave (mmW) new radio (NR) shared spectrum (NR-SS) is disclosed. In the shared spectrum operations, additional opportunities for synchronization signaling are provided by piggy backing a single shot, opportunistic synchronization (sync) block onto the directional beam used for transmitting a data burst to a served user equipment. Instead of transmitting a whole sync slot, which includes sync blocks for each directional beam available at the participating mmW base station, the existing directional beam of the data burst is leveraged for transmitting the opportunistic sync block for that direction. The opportunistic sync block provides initial acquisition UEs with opportunity to obtain network access information, including timing and random access opportunities, for obtaining access to the network.
System and method for managing data using a spreadsheet model
An exemplary embodiment of the present system and method provides a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions. When executed by a computer, the instructions cause the computer to perform a number of steps of, which include: receiving a spreadsheet model; analyzing the spreadsheet model to determine one or more properties of the spreadsheet model; providing a first user interface on the basis of the determined properties, the first user interface enables configuration information to be specified for one or more cells of the spreadsheet model; receiving configuration information for the cells; and storing the spreadsheet model and the configuration information.
Method and system for building a streaming model
A method of constructing a plurality of downloadable files from an application file and a plurality of transcripts. The application file stores data blocks and implements an application. Each of the transcripts stores at least one order in which at least a portion of the data blocks of the application file were accessed by the application when executed previously. The transcripts are combined into a combined transcript storing at least one combined order comprising a combined portion of the data blocks. The data blocks of the combined portion are arranged in a data structure having an origin. A first set of data blocks within a predetermined distance from the origin is stored in at least one initial execution file. A second set of data blocks outside the predetermined distance from the origin is stored in downloadable sequence files.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SEAMLESS ACCESS TO REMOTELY MANAGED DOCUMENTS USING SYNCHRONIZATION OF LOCALLY STORED DOCUMENTS
A system and method for seamless access to remotely manage documents using synchronization of locally stored documents are provided. In some embodiments, a content management server stores documents in a cache on the user's computer. Documents can thus be accessed and edited using the document in the local file system of the user and synchronized with the content management server asynchronously to access the documents on the local files system. Advantageously, the teachings of embodiments as described can be used in conjunction with content management systems for providing faster access to documents in conjunction with editing and for enabling offline work on such documents.
Real-time distribution of messages via a network with multi-region replication in a hosted service environment
A message distribution system replicates a collection of messages across multiple regional data centers. When any of the data centers receives a message for distribution from an authorized publisher, it transmits the message to each of the other data centers so that the collection of messages is immediately replicated among each data center. When any data center determines that a subscriber is connected to it, that data center determines which messages in the data collection the subscriber is authorized to receive, and it automatically sends those messages to the subscriber.
