    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product for processing a data record including encrypted and decrypted data is described. Various embodiments include receiving a data record including ciphertext and plaintext blocks and determining whether each block in the data record is a ciphertext block or a plaintext block. If a block is a ciphertext block, the ciphertext block is stored into a ciphertext record, decrypted into a plaintext block utilizing a decryption algorithm, and stored in a plaintext record. If the block is a plaintext block, the plaintext block is stored into the plaintext record, encrypted into a ciphertext block utilizing an encryption algorithm, and stored in the ciphertext record. Embodiments described also include authenticating the data record by passing each block of the ciphertext record to an authentication scheme and outputting the plaintext record to a destination application.

    Abstract: A network device includes a network interface, a host interface, and processing circuitry. The network interface is configured to connect to a communication network. The host interface is configured to connect to a host comprising a host processor running a client process. The processing circuitry is configured to receive packets belonging to a message having a message length, the message originating from a peer process, to identify, in at least some of the received packets, application-level information specifying the message length, to determine, based on the identified message length, that the packets of the message already received comprise only a portion of the message, and in response to determining that the client process benefits from receiving less than the entire message, to initiate reporting the packets of the message already received to the client process.

    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for generating an optical Pulse Amplitude Modulation 4-level (PAM-4) signal from bandwidth-limited duobinary electrical signals in a Mach-Zehnder modulator. An example system includes an MZM structure that comprises a first waveguide interferometer arm structure associated with a first semiconductor device and a second waveguide interferometer arm structure associated with a second semiconductor device. A polybinary electrical signal is applied to or between the first semiconductor device and the second semiconductor device to convert an input optical signal provided to the MZM structure into an optical PAM-4 signal.

    Abstract: A network device includes at least one port, a memory, data-path circuitry, and a processor. The at least one port is to exchange packets with a network. The data-path circuitry is to process the packets. The memory is to store signatures of traffic patterns according to a locality-sensitive signature function., and corresponding parameter settings for the data-path circuitry. The processor is to assess a current traffic pattern of the packets, to calculate a current signature over the current traffic pattern using the locality-sensitive signature function, to query the memory using the current signature, to configure the data-path circuitry, in response to finding a stored signature that is within a specified distance from the current signature, with a parameter setting that corresponds to the found signature, and take an alternative action in response to finding that no stored signature is within the specified distance from the current signature.
