Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for wireless tower caching. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for wireless tower caching in a radio access network (RAN) can include receiving a response to a request from an end user device wirelessly coupled to a base station of the RAN, determining geographic positioning data for the response and identifying a most geographically wireless tower coupled to the RAN relative to the determined geographic positioning data (such as the closest wireless tower to the determined geographic positioning data). Thereafter, the response can be cached at a cache in a base station of the identified wireless tower. In this way, the cached content can remain relevant for a significant period of time in as much as the correlation between a likely position of the end user device and the content cached at the base station of the wireless tower at the time of use of the cached content is strong.

The annotation can be presented within the content associated with the URI of the interface.

Abstract: An improved solution for managing messages through a request response protocol network utilizing a path-based adaptive prioritization and latency management is provided. A weight for a message is determined at a message management computing device based upon a number of hops and a latency of networks passed through by the message. A hop latency target for a current hop segment is evaluated relative to an overall latency target and the determined weight for the message. A priority of the message is adjusted in response to determining that the overall latency target, relative to the weight for the message and the hop latency target for the current hop segment, exceeds a configured allowable hop latency deviation for the current hop segment.

Abstract: An improved solution for managing messages through a request response protocol network utilizing a path-based adaptive prioritization and latency management is provided. In an embodiment of the invention, a method of managing a message being conveyed through a request response protocol network via a path includes: receiving the message; determining for the message at least one of: an incoming portion of the path or an outgoing portion of the path; and adjusting a priority of the message based on a latency target for the determined portion of the path.

Abstract: A highly scalable and highly responsive RTC system uses asynchronous or non-blocking I/O and HTTP response queuing to avoid server overload. The system distinguishes between two types of requests: an update request and a change request. An update request is a request used to fetch an update or change notification. A change request is a request to change some data related to the real-time session. For a given RTC session, the server first checks whether any updates exist for an update request. If an update exists, the server code can send an immediate response to the client. However, if no update exists, the server code application sets a well-defined HTTP response header, and then responds. Once the server code application responds, all application server resources are freed, and the application server is free to handle the next requests without blocking any thread.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system and computer program product for content caching with remote filtering services in a radio access network (RAN). In an embodiment of the invention, a method for content caching with remote filtering services in a RAN can include receiving a response to a request from an end user device wirelessly coupled to a base station of the RAN, marking the response as uncacheable, and routing the response to the base station over a data communications network. In one aspect of the embodiment, the response can be received in an RNC of the RAN. Of note, the process of marking the response as uncacheable can depend upon the evaluation of a policy with respect to the response. Finally, in another aspect of the embodiment, marking the response as uncacheable, can include annotating a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) header of the response to indicate that the response is not to be cached in the base station.

Abstract: A method for application-specific chargeback of content cached at a wireless tower of a RAN includes receiving a request for content from an end user device in a base station of a RAN and routing the request to an application in a packet switched data communications network from the base station by way of a CN. Content from the application can be received in the base station within a response to the request, the response can be cached in a local cache of the base station in connection with the application and the response can be forwarded to the end user device. Subsequently, in response to a new request for the content received in the base station, the content can be served in a response from the local cache. Further, an identity of the application can be transmitted to a remote charging service external to the base station but within the RAN for charging the application in consequence of having served the content from the local cache of the base station.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for cache sharing among branch proxy servers. A branch proxy sever receives a request for accessing a resource at a data center. The branch proxy server creates a cache entry in its cache to store the requested resource if the branch proxy server does not store the requested resource. Upon creating the cache entry, the branch proxy server sends the cache entry to a master proxy server at the data center to transfer ownership of the cache entry if the master proxy server did not store the resource in its cache. When the resource becomes invalid or expired, the master proxy server informs the appropriate branch proxy servers storing the resource to purge the cache entry containing this resource. In this manner, the master proxy server ensures that the cached resource is synchronized across the branch proxy servers storing this resource.

The system also can include an RNC coupled to the base station over the data communications network. The system yet further can include a charging service executing in memory of a host computer recording charges for data services provided in the RAN. Finally, the system can include a caching with remote charging module executing by the processor of the base station.

Abstract: A rules engine can be initialized as part of an object grid, wherein the rules engine is executable code executing using computer resources. The rules engine updates a business mapper. The rules engine receives a business rule definition to form a business rule. The rules engine determines business terms are present in the business rule. The rules engine converts the business terms to technical terms based on the business mapper, responsive to a determination that business terms are present. The rules engine determines that the business rule comprises a temporal rule. The rules engine receives rule criteria, wherein the rule criteria is at least one selected from the group consisting of frequency, delay and timing dependency, responsive to the determination that the business rule is a temporal rule. The rules engine stores the business rule to the rules engine. The rules engine publishes the business rule to a publish-subscribe topic.

Abstract: This Sampling Object Cache System (“SOCS”) estimates the size of an in-memory heap-based object cache without the need to serialize every object within the cache. SOCS samples objects at a user-determined rate and then computes a “sample size average” for each type of class—whether a top class, type of top class or non top class. Using these sample size averages, a statistically accurate measure of the overall size of the cache is calculated by adding together the total size of the objects in the cache for each class type.

Abstract: A browser history is shared with peers in a social network by configuring a policy. What websites and what members are to be shared are defined in the policy.
