|20130194929||SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR DISTRIBUTED QUALITY OF SERVICE ENFORCEMENT - A grid router for routing data over a grid sessionwise, involves multiple devices forwarding data according to sessions over an unreliable network between the devices. The devices include a first group of mailbox units to handle the sessions and a second group of egress units to forward session data to devices external to the network. The mailbox units and egress units are connected in a CLOS network such that each mailbox unit is accessible by each egress unit. The router further includes a distributed entity, which assigning specific sessions to specific mailbox units and to specific egress units and further defomes quality of service (QoS) levels for each session in the presence of congestion in either the network or the devices.||08-01-2013|
|20130058212||OPTIMIZATION OF THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL PARTICULARLY FOR WIRELESS CONNECTIONS - TCP Proxy apparatus for a wireless network section to a TCP-enabled network includes a latency aware unit for monitoring round trip time over the wireless access network section to determine latency within the access section; and a filter for filtering out momentary changes in the latency. Momentary fluctuations in the wireless connection causes instantaneous packet loss, which merely requires minimal packet retransmission, temporarily affecting latency. The filter ensures that such fluctuations do not activate the TCP congestion avoidance mechanisms and unnecessarily slow down the overall transmission rate.||03-07-2013|
|20110158082||GRID ROUTING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A grid router for routing packets and a network containing the same. The router comprises ingress units (IE), mailbox units (MU), and egress units (EU) connected in a structure of succeeding layers, said layered structure being segregated such that units in a given layer are connected only to a subset of units in a succeeding layer, wherein said grid router comprises a hashing unit for using a hashing function to direct incoming packets through said layers, and wherein said hashing function is configured to reinforce said segregation by directing packets arriving at a given unit in one layer only to units of a corresponding subset in said succeeding layer.||06-30-2011|
|20100085874||BANDWIDTH ALLOCATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - System for bandwidth assignment to manage congestion over a network bottleneck, comprises a regulation point being set up downstream of the bottleneck in the network to manage congestion in data packets arriving from various sources via the bottleneck. For each of the sources, a priority level assigner assigns priority levels to respective data packets. A token bucket assigns tokens at a limiting rate to the prioritized data packets, the tokens allowing passage of packets to which they are assigned. The token bucket is a multi-priority token bucket, meaning it has at least two thresholds corresponding to the priority levels assigned to the packets. The token bucket only assigns a token to an arriving packet having a respective priority level if there are sufficient tokens currently in the bucket to reach the threshold corresponding to the packet's priority level.||04-08-2010|
