Abstract: An endpoint computing device multi-network slice utilization system includes a RAN system coupled to a core network system that allocates network slices and makes each of them available for use in wireless communications. An endpoint computing device includes applications and operates, for each of its applications, to detect that application, determine a networking connectivity requirement for that application, and identify one of the network slices that is allocated by the core network system, available via the RAN system, and that satisfies the networking connectivity requirement for that application. The endpoint computing device then establishes a connection for each of its application with the one of the network slices that satisfies the networking connectivity requirement for that application, and exchanges communications via the RAN system and the core network system for that application using the one of the network slices that satisfies the networking connectivity requirement for that application.

Abstract: A multi-link VPN link selection system includes a multi-link VPN server device that provides a VPN connection to application server device(s) for a computing device. The computing device monitors each of its network interfaces that each provide a respective link to the VPN connection and, in response, identifies one or more QoS parameters associated with each of those network interfaces. When the computing device receives data traffic from application(s) operating on the computing device, it identifies a network transmission requirement associated with that data traffic, determines one of the network interfaces that is associated with one or more QoS parameters that satisfy the network transmission requirements associated with that data traffic; and transmits that data traffic via that network interface and over the respective link provided by that network interface to the application server device(s) via the VPN connection provided by the multi-link VPN server device.

Abstract: An arrangement is provided for performing Montgomery multiplications. A Montgomery multiplication comprises a plurality of iterations of basic operations (e.g., carry-save additions), and is performed by a Montgomery multiplication engine (MME). Basic operations in each iteration may be performed by multiple Montgomery multiplication processing elements (MMPEs). An MME may be arranged to pipeline the process of performing iterations of multiple basic operations and other operations required to complete a Montgomery multiplication both horizontally and vertically. An MME may also be arranged to interleave processes of performing two Montgomery multiplications.

Abstract: An arrangement is provided for performing modular exponentiations. A modular exponentiation may be performed by using multiple Montgomery multiplications. A Montgomery multiplication comprises a plurality of iterations of basic operations (e.g., carry-save additions), and is performed by a Montgomery multiplication engine (MME). Multiple MMEs of smaller sizes may be chained together to perform modular exponentiations of larger sizes. Additionally, a single MME of a smaller size may be scheduled to perform modular exponentiations of larger sizes. Moreover, the process of performing a Montgomery multiplication may be pipelined both horizontally and vertically. Furthermore, processes of performing two Montgomery multiplications may be interleaved and performed by the same MME or chained MMEs.
