  • Publication number: 20150043855
    Abstract: A retainer includes two annular retaining plates combined with each other, and each having semispherical bulging portions arranged at predetermined intervals along a circumferential direction of the retainer. The semispherical bulging portions, which face each other, form a pocket having a ring-like shape, for retaining a ball. The pocket includes a ball non-contact portion formed in a ball facing surface of the pocket at a center portion in a pocket axial direction, the ball non-contact portion being defined by a recess extending in a pocket circumferential direction. The following relationship is set: A/(B+C)=0.70 to 0.90, where “A” represents a pocket circumferential length of the ball non-contact portion, “B” represents a diameter of the ball, and “C” represents a gap formed between the ball and the ball facing surface of the pocket.

  • Publication number: 20150043549
    Abstract: One or multiple bit restricted access window (RAW) end point determination within for single user, multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. A RAW is defined in which only devices of the particular class (e.g., low power class, Z class, smart meter station (SMSTA) class, etc.) are allowed access to the communication medium. Indication of the end of such a RAW may be included within one or more bits set within a signal field (SIG) field of a framer packet generated by a given device within the system and transmitted to one or more other devices. After completion of the RAW, other respective devices of at least one other type of class may be provided access to the communication medium. The manner of access to the communication media outside of the RAW may be varied (e.g., scheduled, based on carrier sense multiple access/collision avoidance (CSMA/CA), etc.).

  • Patent number: 8953600
    Abstract: Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for routing telemetry data to one or more receivers. That is, telemetry data, such as activity data associated with a network device (e.g., a switch, a router, etc.), may be routed to one or more receivers in-flight (e.g., while the telemetry data is being processed by a network device, as opposed to being stored within a storage device for processing). In one example, telemetry data may be forked into a first telemetry data stream for a first receiver, a second telemetry data stream for a second receiver, and/or other telemetry data streams. Respective telemetry data streams may be formatted according to a receiver destination policy. In this way, one or more telemetry data streams, forked from the telemetry data in-flight, may be delivered to one or more receivers in-flight.

  • Patent number: 8954786
    Abstract: A method, system, and medium are disclosed for performing transparent failover in a cluster server system. The cluster includes a plurality of servers. In servicing a client request, a primary server replicates session data for the client into memory space of one or more backup servers. The primary server sends a response to the client, wherein the response includes an indication of the one or more backup servers. When the client sends a subsequent request, it includes an indication of the backup servers. If the primary server is unavailable, the cluster determines a recovery server from among the backup servers indicated by the request. The chosen recovery server would then service the request.
