    摘要: This invention relates to a method of switching voice and data over a multistage interconnection network (MIN). More specifically, a plurality of bits are stored in respective storage locations of the switching elements of the MIN. Storage location of a switching element represents a particular time slot in a frame or a sequence of frames. Bits stored in each location represent specific conditions of the inputs and outputs of the switching elements and also indicate which inputs of the switching elements will be connected to which outputs of the switching elements. This storage of control information in the switching elements allows the switching network to rapidly and simultaneously change connections through the switching elements of the network.

    摘要: A retractable door structure for a storage case including a pair of guide grooves formed from the front end to the back end of the inner surfaces of the case panel, sliding blocks connected to each other by a connecting rod provided in the guide grooves, and a pinion mounted in each of the sliding blocks which is designed to engage with a rack formed in the guide grooves. The door is pivotally held between the sliding blocks by rotary shafts attached to the corners of the door. By means of this structure, the door can be slid inside the case after it is opened and the door is easily pushed in and pulled out of the case since the sliding blocks holding the door slide smoothly in the guide grooves.

    摘要: The present invention is a computer system and method that manages connections between one or more data network interfaces and one or more phone interfaces. A manager process, running on a computer system having both data and phone network interfaces, receives one or more telephone calls from one or more users over one of the phone interfaces and than accesses one or more profiles associated with each of the users. These profiles have one or more service identifiers and one or more interactive response agent (IRA) identifiers associated with the respective user. A menu of the service identifiers is presented to the user. The system then looks up an agent address of one of the IRAs that is associated with the service identifier selected by the user from the menu and establishes a session with the associated IRA. Having done this a two-way communication with the associated IRA occurs during the session. In this communication, the IRA is capable of passing information to the system from one or more application servers to which the IRA is connected over one or more data networks.

    摘要: A system produces of an empirical map of wireless communication coverage through a process of combining information from individual clients to produce a map which is then shared by all of the clients. The wireless coverage map aids in maintaining a reliable communications link. The empirical map is generated by combining information from a group of mobile wireless users. The group may consist of a fleet of trucks, taxicabs, government service vehicles, or the customers of a wireless service provider. The mobile vehicles must be equipped with a GPS device or be located by other means such as triangulation. While vehicles are moving, the quality of wireless communication, e.g., signal strength or communication continuity, is recorded for each vehicle as a function of positions. The data from all of the vehicles is combined to produce the empirical map. The empirical map may be maintained at a central site and subsets of the map replicated for individual vehicles. The map may then be used to direct mobile users to sites of superior communications reliability, warn mobile users when they are out of the service area or are about to leave the service area, or to regulate data communications automatically to stop and restart communications as a mobile vehicle passes through a gap in coverage.

    摘要: A highly scalable system and method for supporting (mim,max) based Service Level Agreements (SLA) on outbound bandwidth usage for a plurality of customers whose applications (e.g.,Web sites) are hosted by a server farm that consists of a very large number of servers. The system employs a feedback system that enforces the outbound link bandwidth SLAs by regulating the inbound traffic to a server or server farm. Inbound traffic is admitted to servers using a rate denoted as Rt(i,j), which is the amount of the ith customer's jth type of traffic that can be admitted within a service cycle time to servers which support the ith customer. A centralized device computes Rt(i,j) based on the history of admitted inbound traffic to servers, the history of generated outbound traffic from servers, and the SLAs of various customers. The Rt(i,j) value is then relayed to one or more inbound traffic limiters that regulate the inbound traffic using the rates Rt(i,j) in a given service cycle time. The process of computing and deploying Rt(i,j) values is repeated periodically. In this manner, the system provides a method by which differentiated services can be provided to various types of traffic, the generation of output from a server or a server farm is avoided if that output cannot be delivered to end users, and revenue can be maximized when allocating bandwidth beyond the minimums.

    摘要: A multicast communication system for small groups using a protocol to indicate to routers receiving a packet according to the protocol to perform the following process: (1) determining a next hop for each of the destination nodes listed in the packet received; (2) partitioning the destination nodes into groups according to the next hop determined for each destination node in the preceding step; (3) replicating the packet such that there is at least one copy of the packet for each of the next hops; (4) modifying the list of addresses for the destination nodes such that the list of addresses for each of the next hops includes only the addresses for the destination nodes to be routed in that next hop; and (5) transmitting the modified copies of the packet to the next hops found in the previous steps for routing to the addresses included in each packet.

    摘要: A cross-point switching array in which each cross-point of the array is controlled by the output of a first memory. Each first memory is associated with a second memory. The second memories can be sequentially set by a single controller while the cross-point connections are maintained according to the first memories. The contents of all second memories are concurrently loaded into the associated first memories to simultaneously reconfigure the cross-point array.
