    摘要: A method for distributed computations for fault-diagnosis in a system whose fault propagation model has deterministic couplings between faults and symptoms includes creating a ‘relation graph’ in which the nodes correspond to the potential faults, with two nodes connected by a ‘relational link’ if their corresponding faults have an observed symptom in common. The relation graph is then partitioned into several domains, while minimizing the number of cross-domain relational links, which correspond to cross-domain symptoms. In each domain, all the optimal local solutions to the domain's sub-problem are first determined, and then a combination is selected of the local solutions, one from each domain, that explains the maximum number of cross-domain symptoms, where the optimal solution is supplemented, if necessary, with additional faults to explain any remaining unexplained cross-domain symptoms, determining also a bound on the deviation from optimality of the global solution.

    摘要: This invention provides an automated adaptive method for identity verification of claimants that attempt to get access into a resource by responding to a sequence of identifiers. The sequence has a specified maximal length and the identifiers are partitioned into multiple groups where identifiers in the same group are correlated and identifiers in different groups are not correlated. The method guarantees that an impostor will be accepted with a probability that does not exceed a specified parameter and that a legitimate claimant will be rejected with a probability that does not exceed a different specified parameter. The method also computes the probabilities that a legitimate claimant, or an impostor, will terminate an interrogation session with an inconclusive result, which would necessitate further manual interrogation. The method is adaptive as the conditional probabilities of an impostor's responses change throughout a session of interrogation.

    摘要: A system and method for self and group location and tracking based on ultra wide band ranging among members of the group is presented. The system comprises an anchored station, a plurality of nodes, each node having at least knowledge of where the node is facing and heading, knowledge of all pair wise distances among all of the plurality of nodes, and ability to exchange information among the nodes and with the anchored station via relays. The system and method find a new position estimate of the group in accordance with an adaptive search process based on constraints of the ultra wide band ranging, and the search process enables extracting directional information and adaptively stabilizing orientation of the group. In one embodiment, adaptively stabilizing the orientation of the group is performed using an orientation-correcting polygon matching process.

    摘要: Disclosed is a technique for data network congestion diagnosis using remote estimation of round-trip delays. A monitoring node transmits test messages between network nodes and measures the transit times between when the test messages are transmitted from, and when they return to, the monitoring node. A path delay between network nodes is determined based on the measured time delays. The techniques for determining network path delay are also utilized in conjunction with a three phase test procedure for diagnosing network congestion problems. Due to various network topologies and routing tables, certain confirmatory checks may be required to determine whether the procedures of the first or second phase test procedures are appropriate for particular path segments. Further, queuing delays may be determined by subtracting traffic independent delays from the measured transit times of the test messages, and such queuing delays may be used to determine the path delays. Such traffic independent delays may be determined during periods of low network traffic.

    摘要: The present invention relates to on-line admission-control decisions. Specifically, the invention concerns general delay bounds for both deterministic and statistical cases for Differentiated Services (DiffServ) networks. More specifically, a detailed method of calculation in each case is followed by simpler methods of calculation that are more appropriate for on-line admission-control decisions. Relatively involved occupancy bound calculations for various service classes take place only at the time of network configuration or reconfiguration. At the time of admission control only simple occupancy threshold compliance calculations need to be performed. Concrete illustrations are provided for deriving bounds for the EF and AF classes provided by DiffServ. These results are applicable to both layer-3 networks that support DiffServ and layer-2 networks that support the more restricted class of service functions.

    摘要: A method and system for estimating the actual demand on a resource in a computer or communication network is taught using patterns of the traffic volume carried by the resource. Monitors on network resources periodically measure queue size and average transmission occupancy over the period. The monitors also mark times of queue overflow. Data transmission populations within the system are estimated between queue overflows and the resulting pattern is used to distinguish actual user demand that may be camouflaged by a reduction in traffic caused by the transport protocol response to lost or corrupted data transmissions.
