摘要： A system and method that enables session-based and non-session-based application services to be controlled and managed within the IMS/NGN architecture. The IMS/NGN architecture includes a service layer and a transport layer. IMS service control functions are implemented within the service layer, and RACF and transport functions are implemented within the transport layer. The transport functions include access and core network functions, which have corresponding QoS resources. The access or core network function includes an application service control function (ASCF), which includes a PD-FE and a functional element for inspecting packet data flows, and identifying and classifying application services associated with the flows. The ASCF is employed to signal the IMS service control functions on behalf of non-session-based application services, and to reserve and allocate the QoS resources needed to support packet data flows associated with the non-session-based services. As a result, service providers can provide users or subscribers of such non-session-based services with guaranteed or differentiated QoS and/or differentiated service plans, thereby allowing charges to be calculated for the non-session-based services and service plans that are commensurate with the value of the respective service or plan.

摘要： Methods and systems for providing scaleable flow based application control in private and public Internet. A flow table can be used to control the application and subscriber traffic for communication flows in access networks. The flow table entry can provide granular, unidirectional packet transmission of data for all or a subset of all host and application communications originating from or destined to network hosts in the access network. Using a flow table entry for multiple unidirectional packet transmissions of data provides efficient use of flow table entries and allows varying operator control of application communication exchanges between network hosts and applications. By using variable masking techniques, the flow table can be used for varying degrees of control over the packet transmissions in the network.

摘要： Tailored application or service may be delivered via a communication device to a number of subscribers in a manner that avoids having to store individual copies of a service profile on the device for each subscriber receiving the application or service. Specifically, a packet is received requesting delivery of the application or service from the subscriber at a communication device. In response, the communication device retrieves a subscriber context, which references policies that describe each of the applications and services available to the subscriber. The application or service requested by the packet is compared with the policies referenced by the subscriber context to identify any matching policies. Subsequently, the requested application or service is delivered to the subscriber via the communication device according to the matching policies as described by a service profile. This service profile is accessible for describing the application or service when requested by other subscribers. In addition, in some cases each application or service is described by a single set of polices in the service profile. In these instances, each request for the application or service is fulfilled according to that single set of policies.

摘要： The driver, in trying to manage the directional control of his vehicle, is often seen rotating his head or torso beyond 90 degrees (past perpendicular) in an effort to gain intelligence about what competing vehicles are flanking his "blindsides." Such a competing vehicle may occupy that area in the "blindside" (left, right or both sides past perpendicular) not directly observable through the rear view mirror. The requirement to make an extraordinary inspection of the vehicle "blindside" is often exacerbated by the poor design utility of the vehicle itself. Those who are physically unable to check the "blindspot" (such as the elderly) knowingly risk collision. The instant invention is the first high-technology effort to address a solution to this problem. A sequentially operating dual sensor technology is used. The first sensor effort takes place as a photonic event. An infrared light emitting diode (IRLED) is coupled to an infrared sensitive phototransistor (PT) or photo-darlington (PD) through the reflectance of incident light energy from the target vehicle. Once detected, a preset time delayed switch is made which activates operation of the second sensor. The second sensor is ultrasonic. The vehicle operator is actually given the distance (in feet) between his vehicle and the threat obstacle.

摘要： An improved secure electrical conductor providing a male and female connector forming a secure seal when the connectors and pins are joined having at least one radial rounded expansion secured within at least one radial rounded groove, the connectors forming a respective resilient shield body sharing a common bore wherein a distinctly color contrasting secure indicator pin is forcefully inserted providing a visual indication of the integrity of the connection between the connectors with the pin providing at least two expanded radial margins to prevent unintentional removal from the common bore, but removable by force during disconnection of the connectors.
