摘要:
Power management within a vehicle is achieved by maintaining individual and/or power island power saving options for each of a plurality of devices coupled to a vehicular communication network of the vehicle. Upon determining that power savings should be enabled for a device, at least one of the power saving options for the device is selected and applied.

A system for performing multi-level video processing within a vehicle includes a pre-processing module for determining an encoding mode and enabling one or more levels of encoding based on the encoding mode. The pre-processing module further receives a video stream from a camera attached to the vehicle via a vehicular communication network and encodes the video stream based on the encoding mode to produce a packet stream output. The system further includes a video decoder for receiving the packet stream output and decoding the packet stream output in accordance with the encoding mode to produce a decoded video output.

While transmitting a first Ethernet frame from the first buffer onto an Ethernet link, a first Ethernet device may stop transmitting the first frame prior to completing transmission of the frame. The first Ethernet device may then transmit a second frame from a second buffer onto the Ethernet link. The first Ethernet device may resume transmission of the first frame from the first buffer onto the Ethernet link. A second Ethernet device may receive, via the Ethernet link, a first portion of a first Ethernet frame and store the first portion of the first Ethernet frame in a first buffer. The second Ethernet device may then receive, via the Ethernet link, a second Ethernet frame and store the second Ethernet frame in a second buffer. The second Ethernet device may then receive, via the Ethernet link, a second portion of the first Ethernet frame and append it to the contents of the first buffer.
摘要:
A communication device may be operable to configure a power management profile for the communication device and/or for one or more devices communicatively coupled to the communication device based on determined location corresponding to the communication device. The power management profile may comprise one or more operational parameters for a plurality of power sources, and may be utilized to control power usage in the communication device and/or the one or more devices. The communication device may be integrated into or be coupled with a hybrid vehicle. The location determination may be performed based on GNSS functions. The power management profile may enable creating and/or modifying operation control data for chargeable power storage devices based on location related data. The operation control data for the chargeable power storage devices may pertain to consumption of power from and/or recharging of the chargeable power storage devices.

A virtual machine running on an endpoint device may encode a mark comprising routing parameters within one or more packets of a packet stream to indicate services and/or costs to be utilized in processing and/or communicating the packet stream. The virtual machine may communicate the packet stream to another network device. The routing parameters within the marks may indicate device capabilities, service class, quality measurements, latency and/or power usage. The routing parameters may comprise costs that may indicate capacity, efficiency and/or performance of power usage, bandwidth, absolute and/or relative latency, frame-drop eligibility, memory and processing. The packet stream is received and inspected to identify the marks and/or routing parameters. A virtual machine may be initialized and/or configured to process and/or communicate the packet stream based on the routing parameters. Routing may utilize based SPB, TRILL, and/or AVB.

Aspects of a method and system for a centralized vehicular electronics system utilizing Ethernet optimized for use in an aircraft are provided. In this regard, one or more processors and/or circuits in an aircraft may be operable to receive one or more Ethernet packets over one or more Ethernet links, generate a plurality of signals based on the received packets, wherein the plurality of signals comprise a plurality of signal formats suitable for conveyance to a plurality of electronic components in the aircraft, and output the plurality of signals to a plurality of electronic components in the aircraft. The electronic component(s) may comprise a display and/or audio output. The signals may be formatted in accordance with video and/or audio standards. The electronic component(s) may comprise an Ethernet port and the circuit(s) and/or processor(s) may be operable to communicate packets between the Ethernet port and the one or more Ethernet links.

Aspects of a method and system for determination and exchange of network timing information are provided. In this regard, for each network hop traversed by a packet, a propagation delay of said network hop may be determined. Moreover, the propagation delay, and/or a hop length calculated utilizing the propagation delay, may be appended to the packet. The packet may, for example, be a MMRP registration packet or a SRP reservation packet. The packet may be dropped in instances that the propagation delay and/or length of a one or more traversed network hops is outside a determined range. The hop length may be determined by multiplying the propagation delay by a speed of propagation on the hop. The speed of propagation may be determined based on the physical layer technology associated with the network hop. Digital rights management may be implemented for media communicated on the network hop based at least in part on the hop length or the propagation delay. In this regard, use of media content may be restricted to a specified location.
摘要:
A network switch is disclosed having at least one data port interface for receiving data and at least one link interface configured to transmit the data between the network switch and other network switches. The switch contains a data processor, having a segmented ring with a plurality of dedicated modules designed to process the data connected through that ring. A programmable ring dispatcher dispatches at least a portion of the data along a segmented ring to at least one of the dedicated modules. The data processor also has a command processor for processing commands received from the dedicated modules. The programmable ring dispatcher determines the first dedicated module to receive the portion of the data and that first dedicated module thereafter determines the next destination for the data potion. Because the dedicated modules can be added to or taken out the switch architecture based on the network environment, the switch is scalable and adaptable.

Aspects of a method and system for predictive leasing of network services and applications based on a usage pattern may comprise a management entity that coordinates operation of one or more endpoint devices. A user profile associated with the one or more endpoint devices may be received by the management entity, wherein the management entity may utilize the user profile associated with the one or more endpoint devices and a usage pattern associated with the one or more endpoint devices to determine leasing information for the one or more endpoint devices. The management entity may be operable to communicate the determined leasing information to the one or more endpoint devices. The leasing information may comprise leasing services and/or applications to the one or more endpoint devices.
