    摘要: An inventive monitor monitors accesses to a resource in an electronic system, such that access to the resource is based on payments in electronic security value units. The monitor detects patterns of payments for the resource in electronic security value units, and compares the patterns of payments to predetermined patterns of payment. In addition, the monitor determines a difference in the compared patterns of payments to the predetermined patterns of payment, such that when the difference is greater than a predetermined threshold difference, an attack is indicated.

    摘要: In a switched network wherein a multiplicity of switching nodes are interconnected with communications links, communications traffic within the network is switched according to different routing trees each associated with a switching node as the destination node. The routing tree specifies a subset of incoming links from which each node receives the traffic and an outgoing link to which the node transfers the received traffic. Each switching node allocates time bands for implementing the different routing trees one at a time. However, nonoverlapping routing trees which share no common link can be implemented at the same time to increase the traffic throughput.
