  • Using machine learning techniques to flow control clients in a deduplication file system
    Patent number: 11954533
    Abstract: Detecting a trend in latency for storage underlying a deduplicated file system includes generating a set of data points by recording when input/output (IO) requests were issued to the storage and recording time required to receive success responses from the storage. Least squares regression is performed on the data points to find a best-fit line through the data points. A slope of the best-fit line is calculated. A determination is made as to whether the slope is positive, a positive slope thereby indicating a trend of increasing latency of the storage. When the slope is determined to be positive, clients accessing the deduplicated file system are throttled.

  • Dynamic roaming
    Patent number: 11956855
    Abstract: A system enables a home operator to establish an automated monitoring process which identifies outage events on competitor wireless networks (e.g., peer operators) operating in the same geographies as home operator. The home operator then is able to selectively offer, in near real-time, to open roaming to the peer operator, or implement roaming automatically based on predefined and mutually agreed upon rule sets. The monitoring process may observe non-customer attach request volumes in order to identify outage events on competitor wireless networks.

  • Systems and methods for vehicle platooning
    Patent number: 11953914
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for platooning vehicles or other types of nodes. The platooning may involve receiving a request from a vehicle to initiate a platoon. In response to the request, another vehicle may indicate a desire to form the platoon with the requesting vehicle. Before the platoon is formed, a verification process may be performed to determine the eligibility of the vehicle to join a platoon, which may be based on a rating associated with the vehicle. Once the vehicle is verified, the platoon may be established. Upon establishment, the vehicles may proceed to coordinate actions, and a lead vehicle may be identified for the platoon. Vehicles may request to join and leave the platoon throughout the lifetime of the platoon. The platoon may eventually be dismissed, for example if the lead vehicle leaves the platoon and no one vehicle is willing and/or able to serve as lead vehicle.
