Abstract: A system for dynamic message routing on a topic between publishing nodes and subscribing nodes includes a plurality of message queues, at least one topic/node table, a subscribing module, a publishing module, and other modules to send messages between one or more publisher and one or more subscribers. These modules are coupled together by a bus in a plurality of nodes and provide for the dynamic message routing on a topic between publishing nodes and subscribing nodes. The message queues store messages at each node for delivery to subscribers local to that node. The topic/node table lists which clients subscribe to which topics, and is used by the other modules to ensure proper distribution of messages. The subscribing module is use to establish a subscription to a topic for that node. The publishing module is used to identify subscribers to a topic and transmit messages to subscribers dynamically.

Abstract: Live video streams are produced using a network server system. The network server system initially receives, via a network, one or more captured video streams that are live streams captured from a remotely-located camera, phone or the like. The captured streams are forwarded to a control device via the network to thereby permit a user of the control device to select one of the captured video streams for output to the video production stream. In response to a command received from the control device that indicates the selected capture stream, the selected capture video streams is encoded for output as the video production stream.

The client device may also provide an identifier to the email service, and the email service may use the identifier to determine which of the email messages stored on the email service are not stored on the client device.

Abstract: A tunnel establishment method and apparatus are provided. A type of a tunnel established for each service of a terminal may be the same or different, given an entity for executing a solution remains the same. A first tunnel and a second tunnel is established for a current service of the terminal, or a third tunnel is established for a next service of the terminal. According to the application, the congestion is eased in a backbone network between a secondary access network node and a primary access network node. Alternatively, the provided method and apparatus avoid using a directly connected tunnel as a tunnel established between the secondary access network node and a core network user plane node when a core network control plane node needs to receive and send too much path switching signaling.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for adaptive real-time streaming of Autonomous Vehicle (AV) data. In some embodiments, the AV can receive a request from the remote computing system for real-time streaming of a first type of AV data and adaptively streaming a second type of AV data when one or more streaming conditions are satisfied. The first type of AV data and the second type of AV data can be captured as raw data by sensors, actuators, transducers, and other components of the AV. The AV can stream the first type of AV data to the remote computing system in real-time for a first time period. When the AV determines the streaming conditions are satisfied, the AV can automatically determine the second type of AV data to stream to the remote computing system in real-time for a second time period.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for generating counterexamples for equivalence failures between models of network intents. A listing of conflict rules corresponding to an equivalence failure between at least first and seconds model of networks intents describing the operation and communication of network devices in a network is obtained. A logical exclusive disjunction between first conflict rules from the first model and corresponding second conflict rules from the second model is calculated. One or more counterexamples corresponding to the equivalence failure are generated based at least in part on the logical exclusive disjunction, such that a given counterexample comprises network and packet conditions that cause the first conflict rules to trigger a first action and cause the second conflict rules to trigger a second action that is different from the first action. Hot fields that are more likely to be associated with the equivalence failure are identified in the counterexample.
