Abstract:
In one embodiment, a source top-of-rack (ToR) switch may identify multiple destination ToR switches from a group of ToR switches to send data traffic to. The source ToR switch may be connected to the group of ToR switches via a base network. The system may determine whether each destination ToR switch is suitable for receiving data transmission via a point-to-multipoint wireless flyway. The two or more destination ToR switches that are determined to be suitable may be considered flyway candidate ToR switches. The system may establish the point-to-multipoint wireless flyway between the source ToR switch and the flyway candidate ToR switches. The system may then transmit the data traffic from the source ToR switch to each of the flyway candidate ToR switches via the point-to-multipoint wireless flyway.
Abstract:
Dynamic bandwidth selection techniques are provided for a plurality of wireless access point devices that operate in a wireless local area network. Each access point device is capable of serving wireless client devices with a bandwidth from a set of possible bandwidths associated with one or multiple contiguous or non-contiguous radio frequency channels. A bias is generated based on determined type of traffic or client composition for each access point device, the bias favoring a channel assignment that results in a particular bandwidth in the set of bandwidths. The bias is applied to metrics representing severity and degree of interference for each channel to generate adjusted metrics. A bandwidth from the set of possible bandwidths is selected for each access point device based on the adjusted metrics.
Abstract:
The trustworthiness of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) messages received from one or more associated vehicles in the vicinity of a subject vehicle is determined autonomously by a false signal detection system of the subject vehicle. Physical evidence relating to the associated vehicles is collected, and a statistical model is used to perform an analysis of the collected data. A V2V message is received by the system from a first one of the associated vehicles and a trustworthiness level of the message is determined in accordance with a correlation between the received V2V message and the result of the analyzed physical data relating to the first associated vehicle. The correlation may be a comparison of data contained in the received V2V message relative to a result of a stochastic analysis of the physical data. The received V2V message may be any V2V safety message including Emergency Electronic Brake Light (EEBL) messages.
Abstract:
An edge server communicates with a client in a local network. The client displays a remote desktop image representative of a virtual desk image generated by a virtual desktop server (VDS). The edge server receives from the VDS a desktop image to be displayed on the remote desktop. The desktop image includes an incomplete window in which graphic media, such as video, is to be displayed. The edge server determines communication link conditions in the local network and a corresponding transmit data rate at which to transmit data to the client device and a suitable encoding rate at which the graphic media is encoded. The edge server downloads the graphic media from the content server, merges the downloaded graphic media into the incomplete area to produce a completed desktop image, and transmits the completed desktop image at the determined transmit data rate for display on the remote desktop.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for delivering data to a wireless client device in a wireless network via a plurality of access points as the wireless client device roams from one access point to another. A wireless client device receives data via a first wireless access point in the wireless network. An impending roam of a wireless client device is detected. A set of one or more candidate wireless access points other than the first wireless access point is determined to which the wireless client device may potentially roam. The one or more wireless access points in the set are assigned to a multicast group, and the traffic is sent to the multicast group. A message containing a synchronized context enables a new wireless access point to send data to the wireless client device from a point where the first wireless access point stopped sending data to the wireless client device.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method comprises determining access network conditions by a network device in an access network, the access network providing communications between a client device and a destination reachable via a data network; selecting, by the network device based on the access network conditions, one of a plurality of coding methods for network traffic between the client device and the destination, including selecting coding parameters for the one coding method; and causing, by the network device, coding to be executed on the network traffic, on behalf of the client device, according to the one coding method and the selected coding parameters.
