  • Patent number: 11917028
    Abstract: A method includes assigning unique symbols to pages of a website, respectively. The method includes obtaining page symbol sequences of browsing sessions, respectively. Each browsing session corresponds to a visitor of the website. For each browsing session, the page symbol sequence of the browsing session is a sequence of symbols that corresponds, respectively, to a sequence of pages of the website visited during the browsing session by the corresponding visitor. The method includes generating a master string including the page symbol sequences, generating a suffix array corresponding to the master string, and generating a longest common prefix (LCP) array corresponding to the suffix array. The method includes, based on the suffix array and LCP array, determining one or more most common n-step subsequences of pages (n is an integer greater than 1).

  • Patent number: 11907860
    Abstract: Targeted acquisition of data for model training includes automatically generating metadata describing samples, of an initial dataset, in neighborhoods of an embedding space in which the samples are embedded. The samples described by the automatically generated metadata are classified by a classification model, and include both correctly classified samples in the neighborhoods and incorrectly classified samples in the neighborhoods. Additionally, attributes of one or more correctly classified samples of the collection of samples and one or more incorrectly classified samples of the collection of samples are identified, and queries are generated based on the identified attributes, the queries tailored, based on the attributes, to retrieve additional training data for training the classification model to more accurately classify samples and avoid incorrect sample classification.

  • Patent number: 11909844
    Abstract: Aspects of present disclosure include devices within a transmission path of streamed content forwarding received data packets of the stream to the next device or “hop” in the path prior to buffering the data packet at the device. In this method, typical buffering of the data stream may therefore occur at the destination device for presentation at a consuming device, while the devices along the transmission path may transmit a received packet before buffering. Further, devices along the path may also buffer the content stream after forwarding to fill subsequent requests for dropped data packets of the content stream. Also, in response to receiving the request for the content stream, a device may first transmit a portion of the contents of the gateway buffer to the requesting device to fill a respective buffer at the receiving device.

  • Patent number: 11909638
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for autonomously routing data using relay nodes pre-selected from a group of distributed computer nodes based on measured one-way latencies. One-way latencies between a plurality of nodes in a pulse group are automatically measured. A sending bucket of nodes are automatically selected from the pulse group based on the one-way latencies. A receiving bucket of nodes are automatically selected from the pulse group based on the one-way latencies. In response to a command to transfer data from the first node to the second node, a relay node that is both in the first sending bucket and in the first receiving bucket is automatically selected, wherein data is automatically routed from the first node to the second node via the relay node.

  • Patent number: 11888700
    Abstract: A method for isolation in the CN domain of a network slice includes receiving a slice isolation policy and establishing a CN NSS isolation policy based on the slice isolation policy. When the CN NSS isolation policy includes a network resource isolation policy, the network resource isolation policy is mapped to a network resource allocation policy, a part of which relating to physical resources is sent to a network function management function (NFMF) and a part relating to virtual resources is sent to a network function virtualization management and orchestration function. When the NSS isolation policy includes an application level isolation policy, the application level isolation policy is mapped to an application level policy which is sent to the NFMF.

  • Patent number: 11882031
    Abstract: A packet header information obtaining method. The method includes: obtaining, by a communications device, a first packet, where the first packet includes a plurality of extension packet headers; and obtaining an extension header self-describing option from the first packet, where the extension header self-describing option is used to indicate information about the plurality of extension packet headers. Therefore, the communications device obtains, based on the extension header self-describing option in the first packet, a first extension packet header included in the plurality of extension packet headers. Packet header information of the extension packet header in the first packet can be obtained by using the extension header self-describing option, and the first extension packet header that needs to be parsed can be directly located from the first packet by using the obtained packet header information.

  • Patent number: 11863631
    Abstract: Techniques for creating in/out App Connectors for secure access solutions without the need for STUN, TURN, and/or a long-lived control plane component. The techniques may include, among other things, establishing, by an App Connector associated with a workload hosted by an enterprise network, a pool of idle sessions between the App Connector and a termination node associated with the enterprise network. The techniques may also include determining, by the App Connector, that a first idle session of the pool of idle sessions has been consumed by the termination node to establish a communication session for a client device to communicate with the workload. Based at least in part on determining that the first idle session has been consumed, the techniques may include establishing, by the App Connector, a second idle session to be added to the pool of idle sessions between the App Connector and the termination node.
