Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus of controlling subscription requests, which can be used in a publish/subscribe engine. The method includes parsing a received subscription request into a predicate expression; determining an occurrence probability of the subscription request based on occurrence probabilities of predicates in the predicate expression; estimating a message increment to be caused by the subscription request based on a message publishing rate associated with the subscription request and on the occurrence probability of the subscription request; and controlling a quality of service of messages based on the estimated message increment.

Abstract: A method of caching communications for devices being transported by vehicles includes receiving, at a vehicle via forward link, a message directed to the vehicle and a plurality of other vehicles. The message includes: content to be delivered to a requesting mobile device being transported by the vehicle or one of the other vehicles, and an indication of at least some of the content to be cached in one or more computer readable storage media disposed on the vehicle. The method further includes determining if the requesting mobile device is being transported by the vehicle, and, if so, forwarding at least some of the content to the requesting mobile device. At least some of the content is then stored on the one or more computer readable storage media disposed in the vehicle based on the indication of the least some of the content to be cached.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present application relate to a method, apparatus, and system for enrolling a mobile device with an enterprise network.

In response to receiving the request to access the enrollment address, determining whether the mobile device is pre-enrolled with the enterprise network, and in the event that the mobile device from which the request to access the enrollment address is received corresponds to the mobile device that is pre-enrolled with the enterprise network, pushing user-specific settings to the mobile device.

Abstract: A network arrangement that employs a cache having copies distributed among a plurality of different locations. The cache stores state information for a session with any of the server devices so that it is accessible to at least one other server device. Using this arrangement, when a client device switches from a connection with a first server device to a connection with a second server device, the second server device can retrieve state information from the cache corresponding to the session between the client device and the first server device. The second server device can then use the retrieved state information to accept a session with the client device.

Abstract: An approach, for autonomous self-servicing of decentralized peer-to-peer devices in an autonomous decentralized peer-to-peer telemetry (ADEPT) environment. A first ADEPT peer connects to ADEPT peers based on peer consensus. The first ADEPT peer determines service needs based on receiving diagnostic inputs. The first ADEPT peer identifies service providers based on consensus service contracts associated to the service needs. The first ADEPT peer creates service orders based on the service providers and output the service orders to service providers based on the consensus service contracts.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for reducing the time required to instantiate network services in a service provider network to service requests by subscriber devices. In one example, an orchestration engine pre-creates pools of different virtual network functions (VNFs). Upon receiving a request to service network traffic from a subscriber device, the orchestration engine dynamically creates a service chain using the appropriate VNFs from the pools of different VNFs. In another example, the orchestration engine pre-creates pools of common service chains. Upon receiving a request to service network traffic from a subscriber device, the orchestration engine selects the appropriate service chain from the pools of service chains. After configuring the service chain, the orchestration engine issues instructions to a Software-Defined Networking (SDN) controller causing the SDN controller to update forwarding information in the service provider network to enable the service chain to service the subscriber traffic.

Abstract: A problem is to distribute data efficiently to each computing node in a parallel computing processing system.
