Abstract: Techniques for oscillatory complementary network property calibration of a network connection can be implemented by measuring a first network property (e.g., latency or bandwidth output) as a function of bandwidth input and performing statistical analysis to determine a correlation. If a non-zero correlation coefficient is detected, a second network property complementary to the first network property can be measured to determine a first value of the second network property. Likewise, the second network property can be measured as a function of bandwidth input to determine a second correlation which, if positive, may indicate how to determine a second value of the first network property. The first value and the second value can be utilized to determine a third value of a third network property (e.g., network latency and network capacity utilized to determine bandwidth-delay product).

Abstract: Application data may be transmitted while oscillating a transmission parameter. A metric associated with a complementary network property is analyzed to identify a transition point between a stochastic error state and a deterministic error state of the complementary network property. Additional network properties or states may be inferred from the transition point, and the transmission of the application data may be optimized based on the inferred additional properties or states.

Abstract: Data is transmitted in accordance with a parameter. For a metric associated with transmission of the data, a response to a stochastic error state of the metric includes making a first adjustment to the parameter in a first direction. A response to a deterministic error state of the metric includes making a second adjustment to the parameter in a second direction, where the second direction is in opposition to the first direction. A transition point between the two states is identified, and a response to the identification is made.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a technique is provided for propagating network address to attribute associations between network addresses. One or more profiles are obtained that maintain an association between a first network address and one or more attributes, the association produced from network address observations of the first network address by one or more source devices in communication with a network. A second network address is determined that is associated with the first network address based on a similarity criteria. The second network address initially lacks an association with the one or more attributes. The one or more attributes are propagated from the first network address to the second address, to form an association between the second network address and the one or more attributes. The association between the second network address and the one or more attributes is then stored in an updated profile.

A network address associated with a source device in communication with a network is observed. One or more first attributes of the network address are determined, where the one or more first attributes indicate at least a spatial or temporal property of the network address.

A record is stored that maintains the association between the second attribute and the network address.

Abstract: An online system receives content items from one or more content sources. The content items are mapped to objects in a database of the online system based on measures of affinity of the content items for the objects. When a query identifying an object in the database is received by the online system, the online system identifies content items associated with the identified object. Information describing the identified content items is generated by the online system and provided to a user or entity from which the query was received. Additionally, information describing social engagement with the identified object may be determined based on the content items mapped to the identified object and included in the information describing the identified content items.
