Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to data sharding for transmission over a high generation cellular network. A computing platform may detect, via a communication network, transmission of data from a first computing device to a second computing device. Subsequently, the computing platform may intercept, prior to receipt of the transmission by the second computing device, the data. Then, the computing platform may shard the data into a first shard and a second shard. Then, the computing platform may identify, within the communication network, a first communication channel and a second communication channel. Then, the computing platform may send, to the second computing device, the first shard via the first communication channel, and the second shard via the second communication channel. Subsequently, the computing platform may merge, the first shard and the second shard, to reconfigure the data.

Abstract: Method and computing devices for enforcing packet order based on packet marking. Upon occurrence of a link failure, a first device reallocates traffic initially forwarded through the failed link to an alternative link and marks the reallocated traffic with a first flag. Upon recovery of the failed link, the reallocated traffic is forwarded again through the recovered link and marked with a second flag different from the first flag. A second device calculates a reference inter-packet time for received traffic marked with the first flag. For received traffic marked with the second flag, the second device calculates a current inter-packet time. The current inter-packet time is compared with the reference inter-packet time, to determine if the traffic marked with the second flag shall be forwarded immediately or if the forwarding shall be delayed.

The proxy node logs communications transmitted between the nodes via the communication path, resulting in a communication log. The communication log can then be used to derive unknown portion of the communication data scheme, such as commands for requesting specified data types and the data format for transmitting data of specified data types.
