Patent number: 11811866Abstract: A method of controlling and coordinating of processing steps in a distributed system can be implemented by an initiator node of a cyclically-ordered set of nodes participating in a blockchain network (e.g., Bitcoin blockchain). The method includes generating a private key and cryptographic shares thereof for the nodes of the set and distributing them. A locking value is determined based on the shares and a transaction is arranged to transmit control of a resource responsive to supply of a corresponding unlocking value. A circuit of transactions amongst the nodes each arranged to transmit control of a resource responsive to supply of an unlocking value corresponding to a locking value determined based on the share distributed to a first node of one of two adjacent nodes and a value received from another node immediately previous to it is prepared. The initiator node may belong to a cyclically-ordered set of initiator nodes.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2023Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: nChain Licensing AGInventor: Daniel Joseph

Patent number: 11799742Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for resolving discrepancies that occur to interrelated computing resources from computing resource drift. Users may describe computing resources in an infrastructure template. However, computing resource drift occurs when “out-of-band” modifications are made to the computing resources and are not reflected in the infrastructure template. To resolve discrepancies between the infrastructure template and the out-of-band modifications to the computing resources, a notification may be output to a user account associated with the computing resources detailing the differences. An updated infrastructure template may be received that resolves the differences, such as by including configuration settings that reflect a current state of the computing resources. The computing resources may then execute a workflow using the updated template, such that the workflow is executed on all of the computing resources in a current state.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2022Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Amjad Hussain, Anil Kumar, Ryan John Lohan, Diwakar Chakravarthy, Julio Cesar dos Santos Lins, Prabhu Anand Nakkeeran

Patent number: 11765211Abstract: In a cellular system having both 4th-Generation (4G) and 5th-Generation (5G) cellular networks, cellular device sends a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) INVITE message to initiate a voice call. The message is received and acted upon by a Proxy-Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF) of an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). Cellular devices that support 5G services are configured to include an information element (IE) in the SIP INVITE message to indicate support for 5G services. When responding to a SIP INVITE message, the P-CSCF determines whether the SIP INVITE message includes such an IE. If the SIP INVITE message contains an IE indicating 5G support, the P-CSCF sends an Authorization Authentication Request (AAR) message to a 5G Policy Control Function (PCF) to initiate a 5G dedicated bearer. Otherwise, the P-CSCF sends the AAR to a 4G Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) to initiate a 4G dedicated bearer.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Suliman Albasheir, Swetha Gopisetti, Muhammad Waqar Afzal

Patent number: 11748227Abstract: Disclosed herein is a computer implemented method and system for analyzing load responsive behavior of infrastructure components in an electronic environment for proactive management of the infrastructure components. Transaction data on multiple application transactions is collected. Load patterns are identified from the collected transaction data for generating load profiles. Data on infrastructure behavior in response to the application transactions is collected. Infrastructure behavior patterns are identified from the infrastructure behavior data for generating behavior profiles. The generated load profiles and the generated behavior profiles are correlated to create a load responsive behavior model. The created load responsive behavior model predicts behavior of the infrastructure components for different load patterns. A live data stream from current application transactions is analyzed using the load responsive behavior model to determine current load responsive behavior.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2019Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Inventor: Padmanabhan Desikachari
