Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for managing scheduling requests (SRs) in a user equipment (UE) that supports a split data radio bearer (DRB). In some aspects, the UE may trigger a first SR for a first communication link and a second SR for a second communication link in response to determining that a first amount of data in the UE data buffer is greater than a first threshold. The UE may transmit the first SR to a first base station (BS) via the first communication link. Prior to transmission of the second SR, the UE may determine whether a second amount of data in the UE data buffer is less than a second threshold. The UE may cancel the second SR in response to the second amount of data in the UE data buffer being less than the second threshold.

Abstract: In an approach to RLC channel management for low memory 5G devices, responsive to detecting a memory overload in an RLC layer of a 5G user equipment, whether slices of a plurality of slices are merger candidates is determined. Responsive to determining that the slices are merger candidates, whether any merger candidates can share a transportation logical entity is determined, where merger candidates can share the transportation logical entity if performance and quality parameters are within predetermined limits. The merger candidates that can share the transportation logical entity are marked as allowed candidates. Responsive to determining that at least one allowed candidate has a workload that is below a predetermined threshold, the allowed candidates are merged into merged flows.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses, including network interface controllers and computer-readable media, for traffic shaping offload. A network computing device can receive data packets for transmission and implement a traffic policy that includes transmitting at least some data packets without delay to their intended destination. Confirmation tokens for non-delayed packets can be queued in a time-indexed data structure and dequeued according to a traffic shaping policy. Confirmation tokens can be generated and stored independent of the time at which corresponding packets for the tokens are transmitted. Dequeued confirmation tokens can cause the network computing device to receive additional packets for transmission. The device can flag at least some packets for transmission without delay according to aspects of the disclosure, while un-flagged packets can be shaped according to a different traffic shaping policy.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for cross-layer processing. In some embodiments, kernel processes are executed at a higher privilege and priority than user space processes, thus cross-layer communication that spans both kernel and user space may introduce system vulnerabilities and/or consume limited resources in an undesirable manner. Unlike kernel space networking architectures that have to accommodate generic use cases, user space networking architectures are application specific, run in their own memory allocations, and can be terminated without affecting other user space applications 602 and/or kernel space operation. Various aspects described herein provide application specific, non-generic functionality without kernel assistance. Exemplary embodiments for buffer cloning, packet aggregation and “just in time” transformations, are illustrative of the broader concepts enabled by the present disclosure.

The first value can indicate that the web control application does not support the first scheme type. A custom scheme function can be registered to handle the first scheme type and can intercept requests of the first scheme type. The custom scheme function can transmit the requests to one or more URLs corresponding to one or more applications through a virtual private network (VPN). The custom scheme function can forward, to the web control application for rendering on the client device, the data corresponding to the application retrieved by the custom scheme function through the VPN.

Abstract: A computing system providing virtual computing services may maintain a fleet of servers that host virtual machine instances having a wide variety of types and configurations. A service provider may rent processor and memory capacity by defining and offering various virtual machine instances to clients.

Accordingly, nodes in a data center can communicate more securely with a cloud backup service via queues and without exposing any HTTP ports to the backup service.

New considerations in performing a VM streaming backup job include without limitation: determining and enforcing a system-wide per-proxy limit of concurrent data streams; generating an ordered priority list of the VMs to be backed up as a basis for choosing which proxies will back up the respective VM, though the illustrative system may not strictly adhere to the priority list based on further considerations; identifying a next available proxy based on data stream utilization at the proxy; and dynamically re-generating the priority list and re-evaluating considerations if some VMs become “stranded” due to a failure to be backed up. Secondary copy operations are distributed to proxies in ways that improve the chances of successfully completing VM streaming backups.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a hybrid call is introduced. Local data is used to immediately display some search results. The search for local data may be initiated at the same time as a search for non-local data (e.g., server data). A preset number of results from the local data may be displayed first, while remaining results from non-local data may be displayed when such results are returned over the network. By using local data to initially return search results, the time for the searcher to see results is reduced to virtually nothing. Additionally, the local results are typically more relevant to navigational searches than traditional type ahead results.
