  • Patent number: 11973671
    Abstract: A generated signal is injected into a first network node in a set of network nodes. The generated signal comprises a predetermined pattern, the predetermined pattern comprises a plurality of time periods, wherein during each time period in the plurality of time periods a first data traffic is prevented from exiting the first network node. By monitoring data flow within the set of network nodes while the generated signal is being injected, a correlation with the generated signal is detected, the correlation correlating a second network node with the first network node. The second network node is associated with the first network node. Responsive to the association, traffic from the second network node to the set of network nodes is blocked.

  • Patent number: 11968311
    Abstract: In a Byzantine computing environment in which a database is sharded or partitioned among multiple clusters of computing nodes, consensus for and execution of data transactions (e.g., transactions that require and/or affect data of one or more shards) are achieved in a resilient manner. Within some clusters, multiple primary replicas concurrently propose transactions for processing in parallel by all replicas. For some multi-shard transactions, shards involved in the transactions may be logically ring-ordered; each shard in turn achieves consensus among its nodes to commit the transactions, and then executes its portion of the operation after consensus is obtained among all shards. For some other multi-shard transactions, involved shards first determine whether local data constraints are satisfied, after which data modifications are made in parallel.

  • Patent number: 11902128
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein allow mobile network operators to provide an adaptive quality of service (QoS) approach for application providers. A network device in a core network receives a QoS monitoring report based on QoS monitoring by an access station. The QoS monitoring report includes data for QoS parameters for network services in a default QoS flow supporting a protocol data unit (PDU) session. Based on the QoS monitoring report, the network device determines if the default QoS flow supports a required service level for the PDU session. When the network device determines that the default QoS flow does not support the required service level for the PDU session, the network device automatically activates a dedicated QoS flow to support the PDU session with the required service level.

  • Patent number: 11888599
    Abstract: A scalable multi-cluster resource sharing facility. A global witness process runs on a first computing platform that communicates over one or more networks to any number of nodes situated over two or more clusters. The global witness process listens on the network for occurrences of leadership and/or resource requests from nodes of different clusters. The global witness processes a request by retrieving a resource request and a respective last known state value, comparing the last known state value to a global stored state value, then storing a new state value when the respective last known state value is equal to the stored state value. Any number of contemporaneous requests can be processed by the global witness process, however only one request can be granted. The other requestors each receive a rejection of their resource request when their proffered last known state value is not equal to the stored state value.
