    摘要: A buffer node and method of buffering packet data units are provided. The buffer node comprises a receive interface configured to receive a complex queue configuration and to receive packet data units, a buffer configured to implement a queue graph configuration associated with the complex queue configuration to buffer incoming packets into queues, and a send interface configured to send the dequeued incoming packets to a destination node. The queue graph configuration comprises at least one classifier configured to determine a classification type for an incoming packet, at least two queues configured to store incoming packets, and at least one dequeuer configured to select a queue from the at least two queues to be dequeued and to apply a dequeueing function on that selected queue. The method comprises a buffer node receiving a complex queue configuration from a configuration entity, receiving a plurality of packet data units from at least one the packet source node, and sending each incoming packet to one of the at least two queues based on the queue graph configuration. The complex queue configuration is associated with a queue graph configuration for buffering packet data units.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for optimizing connections' transmission over the air (OTA) between a user equipment (UE) and a telecommunication network. The telecommunication network includes an operating system (OS) agent residing on the RAN side of the OTA interface, wherein the OS agent is configured to analyze data from/to user equipment (UE). The OS agent is configured to provide metadata of downlink data to the RAN and to apply required transmission protocol's algorithm for the uplink data. Further, the OS agent can contain the UE's OS libraries specific of encrypted protocol to allow the OS agent to decrypt encrypted received data for processing before OTA transmission.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for evaluating caching in a communication network are disclosed. According to embodiments, the methods and apparatus provide for dynamic evaluation of caching in a communication network, wherein a cost associated with the caching can be indicative of dynamic communication network resource demands. According to embodiments, the methods and apparatus of the instant application provide an application server is provided with a cost profile which relates to one or more of the cost of caching and the cost of link usage. The application server can thereby strategically determine how to provide the desired level of user equipment service while mitigating the cost associated with the provision of same.
