摘要:
Forward error correction may be implemented in a network having first, second and third nodes. The second node receives streaming media message packets and one or more check packets from an upstream first node. The second node transmits the message packets and check packets to a downstream third node. The second node uses the check packets to decode missing message packets and transmits the decoded missing packets to the third node before the missing message packets are to be presented by the third node. The third node may receive message packets and a first set of check packets from the second node and a second set of check packets from the first node. The third node may use check packets from both sets to decode missing message packets.

Forward error correction may be implemented in a network having first, second, third and fourth nodes. The second node receives streaming media message packets and one or more check packets from an upstream first node. The second node transmits the message packets and check packets to a downstream third node. The second node transmits a second set of one or more check packets to a fourth node that is downstream of the third node.

Methods and apparatus for facilitating traversal of a network address translator (NAT) are disclosed. For example, a node configured to communicate with one or more other nodes over a network may facilitate NAT traversal by a) determining information regarding the behavior of one or more NATs with the node; and storing the information in such a way that the information is retrievable by one or more other nodes; or b) retrieving information regarding behavior of one or more NATs obtained by one or more other nodes and using the information to traverse one or more of the NATs.
摘要:
Atomic operation may be implemented in a processor system comprising a main memory and a power processor element (PPE) including a power processor unit (PPU) coupled to an external cache. The PPE may atomically load data from a lock-line in the main memory into a first location X in the external cache. A size of the data and the lock line may be larger than a data size for the standard atomic operations that may be performed with the PPE. The data may be reserved in a second location Y in the external cache.
摘要:
Atomic operations may be implemented on a processor system having a main memory and two or more processors including a power processor element (PPE) and a synergistic processor element (SPE) that operate on different sized register lines. A main memory address containing a primitive is divided into a parity byte and two or more portions, wherein the parity byte includes at least one bit. A value of the parity byte determines which of the two or more portions is a valid portion and which of them is an invalid portion. The primitive is of a memory size that is larger than a maximum size for atomic operation with the PPE and less than or equal to a maximum size for atomic operation with the SPE. Read with reservation and conditional write instructions are used by both the PPE and SPE to access or update a value of the atomic.
摘要:
In a distributed hash table overlay network, messages directed to a message ID are relayed to one or more nodes that have published interest in that message ID. Messages are distributed, processed, and/or cached in accordance with relay policies, which enable a wide variety of different applications. Nodes specify relay policies on a per-node, per-message, and/or per-message ID basis. Relay policies can specify any behavior associated with messages, including: message caching, distribution, and processing as well as migration of relay policies when nodes join or leave the network. Intermediate nodes can perform any arbitrary processing of messages based on relay policies. Intermediate nodes can offload processing to other nodes, either by forwarding messages to a different message ID or by enlisting the help of nodes subscribed to the message ID. Messages can include one or more subfields specifying commands and/or data to be evaluated by the intermediate node.

Apparatus and systems for implementing simulated environments are disclosed. Remote implementation of function calls is also disclosed. A simulated environment apparatus may include a plurality of simulation servers coupled to each other over data transfer links. The simulation servers may be configured to perform computations related to simulating an environment. A plurality of view servers may be coupled to the simulation servers over data transfer links. Each view server is configured to facilitate interaction between a plurality of client devices and the simulation servers. Each user device may control an avatar within the simulated environment. A simulated environment system may include a data center configured to communicate over a network with one or more remotely distributed client devices.

摘要:
Traversal of a Network Address Translator (NAT) can be facilitated for a mobile device configured to communicate with one or more other devices over a network via one or more wireless access points. A direction of travel can be estimated for the mobile device. One or more wireless access points the mobile device is likely to encounter can be predicted using the estimated direction of travel. Information regarding behavior of one or more NATs associated with the predicted wireless access point(s) can be predicted. Such information can be stored in such a way that the information is retrievable by one or more other devices or using the information to traverse one or more of the NATs. Alternatively, information can be retrieved regarding behavior of one or more NATs associated with the predicted wireless access points. This information can be used to traverse one or more of the NATs.
