摘要： Provided are methods, devices, and systems for maintaining a SIP survivable network. A SIP endpoint maintains an ordered list of the controllers that are available to it and registers with a subset containing the first N controllers in the list, where N is a plurality, but not all, of the controllers in the list, and obtains services from one or more of the controllers of the subset. If one of the controllers of the subset becomes unavailable, the endpoint registers with the (N+1)st controller in the list, thereby adding it to the subset. If and when the one controller becomes available again, the endpoint de-registers with the (N+1)st controller, thereby removing it from the subset, and if necessary re-registers with one controller. The subset thus forms a sliding window on the list.

摘要： A method and system of enabling communication between peers in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network in the presence of network address translators (NAT). The method includes: assigning a unique peer identifier to each one of the plurality of peers in the P2P network; establishing an overlay topology connecting each peer to a subset of the plurality of peers in a structured connection pattern based on the unique peer identifier of each peer, each one of the plurality of peers having more connections to close peers and fewer connections to distant peers; and routing messages between peers through the established overlay topology.

摘要： A plurality of local networks each have one or more terminal sets and a message re-director. The message re-directors are adapted to communicate with each other across another network through edge devices. The message re-directors are also adapted to convert multicast messages received locally from the terminal sets into unicast messages for transmission across the other network. The unicast messages are received by the other message re-directors. Each one of the other message re-directors then multicasts information received as part of the multicast messages received to the terminal sets within its local network.

摘要： A joining peer is bootstrapped into in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network in the presence of network address translators (NAT). A bootstrap peer is contact by the joining peer to establish a connection between the joining peer and an admitting peer in the peer-to-peer network. The joining peer receives an indication from the bootstrap peer that the connection between the joining peer and the admitting peer has been established with a message path through the bootstrap peer. The indication includes contact information for the admitting peer. The connection is them modified to remove all proxies therefrom.

摘要： Systems and methods for announcing and locating services that are shared in a distributed manner within a peer-to-peer packet-based network are provided. One or more network devices maintain a copy of a particular service and the service is shared by any network device in the network that requires the service. Network devices maintain lists of what services are available on the network as well as where the services are located. When a particular service is desired, the network device consults the lists and is able to request acquisition of the service from any network device known to host the service, either locally or on a remote network device. Service location functionality is also capable of allocating resources and/or services in the network based on statistical information gathered and maintained regarding service use in the network.

摘要： Systems and methods for announcing and locating services that are shared in a distributed manner within a peer-to-peer packet-based network are provided by embodiments of the invention. As opposed to every network device of the network requiring a copy of every desired service, one or more network devices maintain a copy of a particular service and the service is shared by any network device in the network that requires the service. Available services at a particular network device are registered with that network device and then service availability is announced to all other network devices on the network. Network devices maintain lists of what services are available on the network as well as where the services are located. When a particular service is desired, the network device consults the lists and is able to request acquisition of the service from any network device known to host the service, either locally or on a remote network device. Service location functionality is also capable of allocating resources and/or services in the network based on statistical information gathered and maintained regarding service use in the network.

摘要： The system and method detect and properly handle a glare condition in a SIP communication session. A glare condition is where a communication device has two concurrent outstanding requests (typically an incoming and an outgoing request that have not be acknowledged) and needs to process one of the requests before processing the other request. To detect a glare condition, the system and method identify that an out-of-dialog SIP request is received while an outgoing SIP request is pending. In response to detecting the glare condition, a glare algorithm is initiated. The glare algorithm ensures that outstanding requests will be handled in a timely manner.

摘要： A misting device including a mister configured to mist water and at least one of a sound emitter, configured to generate one or more sounds, and a display, configured to generate one or more images. The generation of the one or more sounds and/or the one or more images is timed based on operation of the mister. The sound and/or images may be used, for example, to mentally prepare a pet for misting and/or to calm a pet during or after misting.
