  • Patent number: 11032387
    Abstract: A content delivery network has at least a first tier of servers. A content delivery method includes at a first server in the first tier of servers, obtaining a request from a client for a resource. If the resource is available at the first server or at a peer of the first server, then the resource is served to the client from the first server. Otherwise, it is determined whether the resource is popular, and if the resource is determined to be popular, then the first server obtains the resource and the first server serves the resource to the client. If the resource is determined not to be popular, the server contacts a second server to obtain the resource, not in the first tier of servers, and the second server provides the resource to the first server. The first server is instructed not to cache the unpopular content.

  • Patent number: 11032413
    Abstract: Calls initiated from disconnected phone numbers and calls initiated from phone numbers that initiate calls to disconnected numbers can be indicative of robocalls. Disconnected numbers and phone numbers that have initiated calls to disconnected numbers are identified and assigned a robocall score that indicates a likelihood that a call initiated from that number is a robocall. A communication network that subscribes to a robocall detection service can request a robocall score associated with an originating number associated with a received call, and then handle the call according to the robocall score.

  • Patent number: 11028878
    Abstract: The present application discloses a bearing structural member, a support, a joint assembly and a tube section assembly, wherein the maximum counter force provided by the bearing structural member under an external load is an own designed threshold value, namely when the external load is greater than the designed threshold value of the bearing structural member, the bearing structural member deforms, and provides a counter force equal to the designed threshold value; the support includes at least one bearing structural member; and the joint assembly and the tube section assembly are both equipped with the support. When the external load is not high and is less than the designed threshold value, the bearing structural member may effectively suppress the deformation just like a rigid structural member; when the external load exceeds the designed threshold value, the bearing structural member may deform, and provide a stable counter supporting force less than the external load.
