An Internet of Things (IoT) system is provided. The IoT system includes a plurality of terminal devices, a cloud device, and a human machine interface device. The cloud device is communicatively connected to the terminal devices. The human-machine interface device is communicatively connected to the cloud device via a plurality of first communication channels, and is used for determining a subscription sequence according to a piece of priority information of a plurality of control commands. The human-machine interface device schedules and dynamically subscribes to the first communication channels according to the subscription sequence, so as to transmit the control commands to the cloud device through different first communication channels according to the subscription sequence, so that the cloud device transmits the control commands to the corresponding terminal devices.

A real-time dynamic API traffic shaping and infrastructure resource protection in a multiclient network environment is provided. A traffic rules engine (TRE) applies traffic shaping only to customers that are utilizing “more than their fair share” of the currently available bandwidth without allowing them to negatively impact the user experience of other users. The present invention takes current API traffic into consideration, allowing one or a few high volume users to utilize most of all available bandwidth as long as other users do not need that bandwidth. This includes dynamically measuring and adjusting which users had traffic shaping applied to them based on the overall traffic during any given second. The solution of the present invention avoids any slowdown of customer API requests unless the maximum allowable TPS limit is near to being reached.

Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for reducing latency and jitter by reserving a transmission duration for a transmit opportunity. A device can compress a first slice of a plurality of slices of a video frame to obtain a size of the first slice after compression. The device can estimate a size of the video frame after compression, according to the size of the first slice after compression. The device can generate a request to send (RTS) to reserve, a transmission channel for a transmission duration corresponding to the size of the video frame after compression. The device can broadcast the RTS to one or more other devices.

An estimating apparatus (1) according to the present invention includes a plurality of feature quantity calculating units (111 to 11n) configured to implement processing of calculating, from a communication traffic, a differing feature quantity group for each of a plurality of types of control attributes relating to communication control, the plurality of feature quantity calculating units being each associated with each of the plurality of types of control attributes, a calculating unit (12) configured to calculate, with regard to each of two or more of the plurality of types of control attributes, each of the feature quantity groups from the communication traffic by use of the feature quantity calculating unit being associated with each of the control attributes, and an estimating unit (13) configured to estimate an attribute value of each of the two or more control attributes from each of the calculated feature quantity groups.

Transaction authorization systems may include a transaction processor and an authorization server system. The transaction processor obtains transaction requests authorizations for those requests from the authorization server system. The transaction processor may require an authorization be provided within a threshold time; otherwise, the transaction may be processed without authorization. The authorization server system may be hosted using one or more nodes in a distributed system. Degradation of the performance of the distributed system may cause the performance of the authorization server system to fall below the required performance threshold and transactions may not be authorized before automatic processing. Transaction authorization systems may monitor the health of the individual nodes and/or the distributed system and automatically adjust the routing of authorizations based on current and/or future performance degradation. The transaction authorization system may also allocate additional resources and/or reroute authorizations to a separate distributed system to avoid performance degradations.

An electronic device is configured with a notification throttling system. The notification throttling system obtains a set of priorities for multiple applications that are installed on the electronic device and are enabled for alerting the user via notifications. The set of priorities specifies a relative importance of each particular application among the multiple applications. The notification throttling system throttles application alerts presented by the user device for notifications generated by the applications based on the relative importance of each particular application as specified by the set of priorities.

System and methods are provided for receiving identification information from remote user devices associated with users. The identification information serves to obtain corresponding stored user profiles. Primary communication channels are generated for each user based upon their profiles. Each such primary channel is limited to communication with, and facilitates electronic communication between, a single corresponding enterprise data source, and users. For each respective primary channel in a subset of the primary channels of a first user, a corresponding plurality of sub-channels is generated based upon their profile. Each such plurality of sub-channels forms a corresponding hierarchical tree with the corresponding primary channel as root node and the sub-channels as child nodes. A sub-channel in a hierarchy of sub-channels enables secure bidirectional communication between (i) the remote user device associated with the first user and (ii) the enterprise data source associated with the primary channel of the hierarchy.

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a service processing method, a PCRF, and a system. The method performed by the PCRF includes: obtaining service information of a service, where the service information includes a service identity; obtaining, according to user information and the service information, information indicating that the service requires QoS guarantee, and service chain information; when determining, according to the service chain information, that a network resource occupied by the service may be changed, sending the service identity and the information indicating that the service requires the QoS guarantee to a value-added service processor; receiving target service information, returned by the value-added service processor, of the service corresponding to the service identity; generating a first control policy according to the target service information; and sending the first control policy to a PCEF, so that the PCEF reserves a first network resource according to the first control policy.
