Abstract:
A device is configured to receive packet timing data, from multiple network devices, for subscriber application traffic over an Internet Protocol (IP) wireless access network and to calculate, based on the packet timing data, timing latencies for a particular subscriber flow. The device is configured to retrieve Quality of Service (QoS) timing specifications for the particular subscriber flow and to determine when the calculated timing latencies for the particular subscriber flow fail to meet the QoS timing specifications for the particular subscriber flow. The device is configured to identify one or more of the network devices that are causing the particular subscriber flow to fail to meet the QoS timing specifications and to instruct the one or more of the network devices to modify QoS parameters for the particular subscriber flow to improve timing latency for the particular subscriber flow.
Abstract:
A system may receive a bandwidth allocation policy, may allocate first bandwidth to a first set of queues based on the bandwidth allocation policy, and may allocate second bandwidth to a second set of queues based on the bandwidth allocation policy. The system may identify a first characteristic associated with packets, and may store information associated with the packets in first queues based on the first characteristic. The system may identify a second characteristic associated with the packets, and may store information associated with the packets, from the first queues, in second queues, based on the second characteristic, the allocated first bandwidth, and the bandwidth allocation policy. The system may store information associated with the packets, from the second queues, in an output queue based on the allocated second bandwidth and the bandwidth allocation policy, and may service the packets from the output queue for delivery to a device.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) provides for display, to a user, information identifying available over-the-top (OTT) services provided via voice-over-Long-Term Evolution (VoLTE), and receives, from the user, a selection of a particular OTT service of the available OTT services. The UE receives, from the user, information identifying a selected contact associated with the particular OTT service, and determines whether a particular UE associated with the selected contact is a VoLTE capable device or a non-VoLTE capable device. The UE provides a call to the particular UE, via a LTE network and an Internet protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network, when the particular UE is a VoLTE capable device.
Abstract:
A system receives traffic information that identifies an application installed on a user device and resources being used to process traffic associated with the application; obtains, as a result of receiving the traffic information, a policy that identifies a particular amount of resources authorized for processing particular traffic associated with the application; determines that an amount of the resources being used to process the traffic exceeds the particular amount of resources authorized for processing the particular traffic; and transmits a notification to cause the traffic to be controlled by a base station to reduce the amount of the resources to a level less than the particular amount of resources.
Abstract:
A device may receive a request from a mobile device to create a socket connection between the mobile device and the device. The request may be associated with linking information that links the socket connection with a previous socket connection with the mobile device. The request may be received from the mobile device after the mobile device disconnects from a first wireless local area network and reconnects to a second wireless local area network. The device may identify, based on the linking information, a socket connection between the device and a server device, the socket connection between the device and the server device having been created when the mobile device was connected to the first wireless local area network. The device may relay communications between the mobile device and the server device, using the socket connections.
Abstract:
A system may be configured to receive first information regarding a location service dead zone; receive second information regarding a location of a user device; identify, based on the first information and the second information, that the user device is within the location service dead zone at a particular time; compute a location of the user device, within the location service dead zone, at the particular time, based on at least one of the second information regarding the location of the user device, history data associated with the user device, or history data associated with one or more other user devices; and store or output information regarding the computed location of the user device at the particular time.
Abstract:
A device receives Internet protocol (IP) addresses and metrics associated with network nodes of a network, and stores the IP addresses and the metrics in a route table. The device receives, from a user equipment, a request to connect to the network, and determines a particular network node, of the network nodes, to which to forward a communication session of the user equipment, based on the request and based on the metrics stored in the route table. The device forwards the communication session of the user equipment to the particular network node, and the particular network node enables the user equipment to connect to the network.
Abstract:
A system may include a number of load balancers configured to receive requests associated with a service, and a number of computer pools associated with the load balancers, where each of the computer pools includes a number of computers. The system may also include a memory accessible to each of the computers, the memory being configured to store state information associated with a client session involving a first client device requesting the service. A first one of the computers may be configured to perform a portion of processing associated with the client session and forward first state information regarding the processing to the memory. A second one the computers may be configured to perform an other portion of the processing associated with the client session and forward second state information to the memory. The memory is configured to store the first and second state information.
Abstract:
A network device may receive a peer-to-peer (P2P) activity record corresponding to a P2P data flow of P2P activity in a network. The P2P data flow may include content information communicated from a first user equipment device (UE) to a second UE via the network, and the P2P activity record may include information identifying the P2P data flow. The network device may insert the information identifying the P2P data flow into a P2P activity map and compare the P2P activity map to a P2P pattern of interest. The network device may also determine a P2P activity of interest probability based on the comparison of the P2P activity map to the P2P pattern of interest, which may describe the likelihood that P2P activity of interest is occurring in the network. The network device may also generate a system response based on the P2P activity of interest probability.
Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates determining server configurations based on an execution profile of an application. During operation, the system analyzes the application to develop an execution profile that specifies the number of times each primitive operation is executed. Next, the system estimates the amount of resources used by the application based on the number of times each primitive operation is executed. Finally, the system determines a server configuration based on the estimated amount of resources used by the application.
