A method of providing a service (230) to a requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) belonging to plurality of Infrastructure Elements (105, 110, 115; 245ie) interconnected to form a data network (100) is proposed. The method comprises operating a computing system (120) for receiving a service request (220r) requesting the provisioning of a service (230) from the requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 15; 245ie), the service request comprising an indication of one or more performance requirements; converting said service request (220r) in a service graph (230g), the service graph (230g) comprising at least one task (530) to be accomplished complying with said one or more performance requirements in order to provide said service (230); selecting at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) currently capable the accomplishment of said at least one task (530) complying with said one or more performance requirements; configuring the selected at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie) for accomplishing said at least task (530), and causing the selected at least one Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 15; 245ie) to accomplish said at least one task (530) to provide the service (230) to the requesting Infrastructure Element (105, 110, 115; 245ie).
摘要:
A method for controlling distribution of media contents over a network is provided, wherein the contents are distributed contents available at surrogate servers and remaining contents that are not available at the surrogate servers. The method includes identifying contents eligible for distribution from the remaining contents; defining a set of categories; identifying for each category at least a reference content; associating the identified contents with the predefined categories based on semantics affinity with the reference content, the semantics affinity being calculated as the distance of each of the identified contents to the at least a reference content; selecting at least one of the predefined categories; and making at least one of the identified contents associated with the selected predefined category available for distribution at the surrogate servers.

摘要:
A system for automatic generation of workflow models related to interventions performed on equipment included in a communication network having associated resource proxy agents each providing a representation of the status of corresponding network equipment according to a given data model. The system includes a set of recorder agents, and the resource proxy agents are configured to send to the recorder agents information signals representative of events in the status of the corresponding network equipment triggered by manual activities or commands, such as, commands input by operators and performed on the network equipment. The system is configured to analyze the information signals sent to the respective recorder agents to produce therefrom workflow models of the manual activities or commands performed on the network equipment.
摘要:
A system for the time-based accounting of access by users to services provided by a data network includes a primary access node to provide access by users by establishing via the primary access node a steady connectivity between the users and the network. A secondary access node is associated with the primary access node, such secondary access node being configured for acting as a backup node to maintain connectivity in the case of failure involving the primary access node. The primary access node is configured for issuing a request for credentials for any user requesting access to said data network and, as a result of receiving valid credentials from the user, starts time-based accounting for the user. An authentication node cooperative with the primary access node and the secondary access node stores the secondary access node information items concerning the time-based accounting started for the user. The time-based accounting is thus maintained in the case of failure involving the primary access node as connectivity is maintained by the secondary access node.
摘要:
A method of estimating a number of persons gathering at an Area of Interest for attending a public happening during a time interval on a day is proposed. Said Area of Interest is defined by an Area of Interest center and an Area of Interest radius and is covered by a mobile telecommunication network having a plurality of communication stations each of which adapted to manage communications of user equipment in one or more served areas in which the mobile telecommunication network is subdivided.
摘要:
A cellular network comprising one or more user transceiver stations located within a first coverage area and that are each configured to provide radio coverage over a corresponding second coverage area by exploiting a selected frequency band among a respective set of frequency bands. When a user equipment within one first coverage area of requests to exchange user traffic, the cellular network selects a group of candidate user transceiver stations located within the first coverage area based on the position of the user equipment within the first coverage area; select a group of candidate frequency bands among sets of frequency bands of the user transceiver stations located within said one first coverage area; and allow the user equipment to exchange user traffic with one or more selected user transceiver stations exploiting a selected frequency band.
