Abstract: Virtual application and desktop delivery may be optimized by supplying application metadata and user intent to the device between a client and a server hosting resources for the delivery. The data packets used to deliver the virtual application or desktop may be also tagged with references to the application. By supplying the metadata and tagging packets with the metadata, an intermediary network device may provide streams of data packets at the target QoS. In addition, the device may apply network resource allocation rules (e.g., firewalls and QoS configuration) for redirected content retrieved by the client out of band relative to a virtual channel such as the Internet. The network resource allocation rules may differ for different types of resources accessed. The device may also control a delivery agent on the server to modify communication sessions established through the virtual channels based on network conditions.

Abstract: Described embodiments improve the performance of a computer network via selectively forwarding packets to bypass quality of service (QoS) processing, avoiding processing delays during critical periods of high demand, increasing throughput and efficiency may be increased by sacrificing a small amount of QoS accuracy. QoS processing may be applied to a subset of packets of a flow or connection, referred to herein as “lazy” processing or lazy byte batching. Packets that bypass QoS processing may be immediately forwarded with the same QoS settings as packets of the flow for which QoS processing is applied, resulting in tremendous overhead savings with only minimal decline in accuracy.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for supporting message mapping via time and/or frequency indexing. For example, these techniques may be applied to device-to-device wireless communication. For example, device to device discovery may use message mapping via frequency indexing. A portion of the payload of a message, such as a discovery message, may be offloaded to a frequency and/or time index. A receiving device may determine the offloaded portion of the payload based on the frequency and/or time (e.g., subcarrier and/or slot) used to transmit the message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting user equipment (UE) such as a vehicle may identify data for transmission and transmit a request message to one or more receiving UEs (e.g., other vehicles). The request message may be associated with a first priority. The transmitting UE may monitor resources for a response message. The response message may be associated with a second priority. If the transmitting UE receives a response message, the transmitting UE may determine whether to transmit the data based on a comparison of the priorities of the request message and the response message. In some cases, the transmitting UE may transmit the data if the transmitting UE does not receive any response message. A receiving UE may receive the request message and determine whether to transmit a response message based on the priority and/or the receive power of the request message.

Abstract: A time-division duplexing (TDD) system reduces crosstalk associated with signals communicated by coordinated dynamic time assignment (cDTA) transceivers. In some embodiments, the TDD system has both cDTA transceivers and legacy transceivers. Based on the dynamic allocation of downstream and upstream timeslots for the cDTA transceivers, timeslots for the legacy transceivers are selectively muted in an effort to limit the amount of near-end crosstalk (NEXT) that occurs in the TDD system. Thus, subscriber lines coupled to both cDTA transceivers and legacy transceivers may be bound within the same binder without significantly increasing crosstalk to unacceptable levels.
