摘要:
The invention relates to a method of managing the braking of an aircraft while taxiing on an airport, the method comprising, on the basis of characteristics for a sequence of movements of the aircraft along at least one given path to be followed by the aircraft on the airport, the step of deducing information concerning the braking to be performed so that the aircraft does indeed travel in application of said sequence of movements.
摘要:
Methods and an associated traffic management module and system are disclosed for monitoring, at a traffic management module (26) within a data network, path characterisation information indicative of at least one measure of a dynamic network characteristic at a remote node (23) outside said data network. The method involves a traffic management module (26) receiving at least one data unit from a remote node (23) outside said data network, and in the event that said at least one data unit is encapsulated in an outer header and that an inner header of said data unit includes path characterisation information, performing the following in respect of said data unit: (a) monitoring said path characterisation information in said inner header; and (b) forwarding said data unit according to a first treatment category. In the event that these conditions are not met, the data unit is instead subjected to an alternative treatment.

摘要:
Data networks and nodes making up parts of data networks are arranged to derive information relating to the characterization of paths taken by data travelling between nodes in the networks. Path characterization information is fed back from a receiver of data to a provider of data, and informs nodes subsequently forwarding data of characteristics of the downstream path. Also described are routing and related controlling nodes and methods for using such path characterization information to make informed routing and other decisions when forwarding data in a data network.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of managing the braking of an aircraft having a plurality of brakes comprising friction elements, the method comprising the following steps for at least one group of brakes: estimating an energy level (□E) to be dissipated by the brakes of the group; and estimating individual braking setpoints (Fi) for each of the brakes of the group so that the individual braking setpoints make it possible, at least under normal operating conditions of the brakes, to implement braking that dissipates said energy level, the individual braking setpoints also being determined so as to satisfy at least one other given operating objective.
摘要:
Packet forwarding apparatus has an input for receiving packets; a packet classifier arranged in operation to read a class indication in received packets and in dependence thereon to pass packets to a class-based policer associated with the class indicated; a plurality of class-based policers, each operable to assign a provisional indication to packets of the associated class in response to a measure of the load presented by packets of the class exceeding a predetermined class-based threshold; a multi-class policer operable to receive provisionally-indicated packets processed by the class-based policers, and to assign a congestion indication to packets having the provisional indication in response to congestion arising at the packet forwarding apparatus; and an output for presenting packets processed by the multi-class policer for onward transmission from the apparatus.
摘要:
A processing node for processing data items in a data network, comprising means for receiving data items, means for receiving characterisation metrics associated with the data items and identifying characteristic values in respect thereof, and a process selection means, said process selection means comprising means for deriving a collective value from characteristic values associated with a plurality of the data items, means for comparing characteristic values associated with a plurality of the data items with a predetermined target value, means for subjecting data items in respect of which the characteristic values are on a first side of the predetermined target value to a first process, means for selecting at least some of the data items in respect of which the characteristic values are on a second side of the predetermined target value, and means for subjecting the selected data items to a second process which is different from the first process.
