  • Patent number: 11973776
    Abstract: An enterprise-wise means for determining monitoring requirements for technology resources, such as, software, hardware, firmware, network or the like and implementing the monitoring. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is implemented to determine monitoring requirements based on characteristics of the technology resource that is to be monitored. In this regard, the characteristics of the technology resource serve to define the problem(s), such as cyber threats and/or performance issues that the technology resource currently faces or will face in the future. By determining the monitoring requirements based on the technology resource's characteristics, including the technological environment, the invention serves to describe what needs to be monitored in terms of the problems that the technology resource currently faces or will face.

  • Patent number: 11962345
    Abstract: Chromatic dispersion compensation is performed in one or more pluggable optical transceiver (POT) devices operating within an intensity-modulated direct-detection (IMDD) optical network. Compensation is performed within each POT using an electrical and/or optical chromatic dispersion module which are controlled by a set of parameters. A network computing device includes a computer processor and a host management interface for communicating with the POT. In the event of a link failure, the computer processor determines a second set of parameters to control the one or more dispersion compensation module(s) of the POT. The second set of parameters are different from a first set of parameters used to control the one or more compensation module(s) in the case of a first optical path. The computer processor causes the POT to use the second set of parameters in place of the first set of parameters.
