摘要:
A micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) disc drive includes high-precision and integrated components to allow for increased functionality, robustness and reduced size as compared to currently produced disc drives. Integrating multiple subcomponents of the disc drive using batch processing provides low manufacturing costs. Furthermore, using MEMS techniques, new features can be added to disc drives. For example, an environmental control component, an accelerometer and/or a thermometer may be integrated into the housing of the disc drive.

In general, the invention is directed to techniques for integrated interconnects with a set of disc drives. The interconnects allow for a set of disc drives to be positioned in an array; for example, as set of disc drives may be stacked to communicate with a device through a single interface of the device. The interconnects may be formed as vias within the housing of the disc drives. Vias may produced using MEMS techniques, e.g., electroplating, as part of the manufacturing processes of the disc drive itself.

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.

A transducer in a magnetic storage device includes an elongated magnetoresistive element having an active region. First and second electrical contacts couple to the elongated magnetoresistive element on opposite sides of the active region. A bottom inductive write pole and shared shield is positioned adjacent the elongated magnetoresistive element and includes a body region and a pole tip region proximate the active region. The shared shield includes a notch defined between the pole tip region and the body region to thereby improve magnetic stability in the pole tip region. A top inductive write pole is spaced apart from the bottom inductive write pole and shared shield to form a magnetic gap with the pole tip region for inductively writing information.
摘要:
An approach for providing a quality indicator in support of a communication session between a near end station and a far end station over a data network. The quality of the communication session in a direction of the near end station sending to the far end station is determined. A message containing statistics associated with the communication session is transmitted according to a prescribed protocol to the near end station to notify the near end station of the quality of the communication session. The prescribed protocol supports real-time data exchange. The present invention has particular applicability to SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) IP (Internet Protocol) telephony services.
摘要:
An approach provides interdomain traversal to support packetized voice transmissions. A request for establishing a voice call is received from a source endpoint behind a first network address translator of a first domain, wherein the request specifies a directory number of a destination endpoint within a second domain. A network address is determined for communicating with the destination endpoint based on the directory number. Additionally, existence of a second network address translator within the second domain is determined. If the network address can be determined, a media path is established between the source endpoint and the destination endpoint based on the network address to support the voice call.
摘要:
A method for performing mode-agile communications during a communications session is disclosed. A communications terminal device supporting multiple modes of access is configured to determine when, during a session involving a first mode of access communications, a second mode of access is available and is to be used for subsequent communications for the session. The communications terminal device initiates or controls switchover from one mode of access to another.

An approach for providing voice processing over a packet switched network is disclosed. A communication system includes a special forking proxy server that receives a message for establishing a session between a calling user agent and a called user agent. The message has a first payload corresponding to a first call leg. The system also includes a bridging user agent that communicates with the first network element and generates a response that contains the first payload and a second payload that corresponds to a second call leg. The bridging user agent is configured to bridge the first call leg and the second call leg to establish a session between the calling user agent and the called user agent. The special forking proxy server is configured to fork an acknowledgement message from the calling party to acknowledge the session establishment by the called user agent. The present invention has particular applicability to SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) IP (Internet Protocol) telephony services.
摘要:
A system, method, and computer program product for web communication based content servicing and delivery. In use, a first communication session is established with a user using a first embedded communication data channel. Next, during the first communication session, a second communication session is established using a second embedded communication data channel. Further, a plurality of profiles is exchanged using the second embedded communication data channel, wherein the plurality of profiles is associated, at least in part, with the user and with a content provider. Additionally, while simultaneously maintaining the first communication session and the second communication session, content is exchanged based on the plurality of profiles using the second embedded communication data channel.
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.
