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.

A computer implemented method and system comprising receiving a data packet from a network source, extracting source and destination data from the received data packet, determining a user from the extracted source and destination data from the received data packet. If a label does not exist for the extracted source and destination data from the received data packet, creating a label for the data packet, the label comprising the extracted source data and historic source data for the determined user, calling a chaotic function with the label for the received data packet. If the chaotic function returns false, calling an alternative function for an output with the label for the received data packet. If the chaotic function returns true, capturing the output of the chaotic function, and updating the label with the output of the chaotic function or with the output of the alternative function.

Methods, computer-readable media and apparatuses to improve storage and compression of data are disclosed. A processor receives a data stream, wherein the data stream comprises multiplexed data from a plurality of different sources, analyzes the data stream to identify a source of the plurality of different sources for each block of data of the data stream, demultiplexes the data stream based on the source of the each block of data of the data stream and applies a compression to the data stream that is demultiplexed based on the source of the each block of data of the data stream.

In one embodiment, a device in a network receives traffic data associated with a particular communication channel between two or more nodes in the network. The device generates a mean map by employing kernel embedding of distributions to the traffic data. The device forms a representation of the communication channel by identifying a set of lattice points that approximate the mean map. The device generates a traffic classifier using the representation of the communication channel. The device uses machine learning to jointly identify the set of lattice points and one or more parameters of the traffic classifier. The device causes the traffic classifier to analyze network traffic sent via the communication channel.

In one embodiment, a networking device in a network detects an traffic flow conveyed in the network via the networking device. The networking device generates flow data for the traffic flow. The networking device performs a classification of the traffic flow using the flow data as input to a machine learning-based classifier. The networking device performs a mediation action based on the classification of the traffic flow.

Systems and methods are provided for measuring available bandwidth available in a black box network by determining a probing rate of packet transmissions between a sender and receiver. The optimal probing rate and bandwidth estimate may be determined. Additional actions may be performed, like automatically rerouting packets and/or load balancing network traffic after the probing rate is determined.

Technologies for packet forwarding under ingress queue overflow conditions includes a computing device configured to receive a network packet from another computing device, determine whether a global packet buffer of the NIC is full, and determine, in response to a determination that the global packet buffer is full, whether to forward all the global packet buffer entries. The computing device is additionally configured to compare, in response to a determination not to forward all the global packet buffer entries, a selection filter to one or more characteristics of the received network packet and forward, in response to a determination that the selection filter matches the one or more characteristics of the received network packet, the received network packet to a predefined output. Other embodiments are described herein.

There are provided: a transfer management table storage unit to store a transfer management table which indicates transfer destination ports for frames received from another transfer device, the another transfer device being configured to transmit a frame low in importance of received frames without copying this frame and to transmit an important frame of received frames to paths made redundant by copying the important frame, the important frame being a frame higher in importance than the frame low in importance; an adjacent information table storage unit to store an adjacent information table which indicates information about instruments connected to the ports; and a transfer destination management unit to control whether to transfer an important frame received from another transfer device by use of the transfer management table and the adjacent information table.

A mobile wireless communication unit comprising: at least one short-range wireless circuit and configured to receive content in a bundle format over a delay tolerant network, using a short range wireless communication technology,—wherein the content relates to at least one of multiple quality of service priority levels; a processor operably coupled to the at least one short-range wireless circuit and configured to determine a priority level of the bundle formatted content. In response to the determined priority level, the processor is configured to: transmit at least the bundle formatted content direct to a network server over a cellular network if the determined priority level of the bundle formatted content is high; or store the bundled content in memory coupled to the processor if the determined priority level of the bundle formatted content is low and transmit at least the bundle formatted content to at least one of: another mobile wireless communication unit or a dedicated delay tolerant network gateway node, when discovered using a short range wireless communication technology.

A method for communication includes receiving and forwarding packets in multiple flows to respective egress interfaces of a switching element for transmission to a network. For each of one or more of the egress interfaces, in each of a succession of arbitration cycles, a respective number of the packets in each of the plurality of the flows that are queued for transmission through the egress interface is assessed, and the flows for which the respective number is zero are assigned to a first group, while the flows for which the respective number is non-zero are assigned to a second group. The received packets that have been forwarded to the egress interface and belong to the flows in the first group are transmitted with a higher priority than the flows in the second group.
