  • Patent number: 11516128
    Abstract: Methods and systems for path selection involving remote access protocols and/or user behavior are described herein. A request, from a first computing device, for content hosted on a second computing device may be received. Based on network state metrics, remote access protocol metrics, and/or user experience metrics, a path of a plurality of paths between the first computing device and the second computing device may be selected. The path need not be the most direct path between the first computing device and the second computing device, and may comprise remote access to a computing device on an intermediary server. Based on user behavior analysis performed with respect to user input data, a path may be re-selected, and/or the network state metrics, remote access protocol metrics, and/or user experience metrics may be weighted.

  • Patent number: 11516137
    Abstract: Content propagation control can include determining a classification of a message formatted for conveyance over a data communications network. The classification can be based on content of the message and determined using a classification model constructed by analyzing prior message propagation rates and corresponding propagation paths that are each associated with one of multiple message content types. Content propagation control also can include selecting propagation rate and propagation path control indicators based on the classification of the message determined using the classification model and embedding the propagation rate and propagation path control indicators in the message.

  • Patent number: 11463303
    Abstract: The embodiments disclosed herein relate to using SNMP functionality for fast and accurate detection of node failure in a computer cluster. When cluster nodes are connected via a switch that provides SNMP capability, a trap mechanism can be used to immediately and proactively notify cluster nodes that a particular cluster node is disconnected from the network, potentially even before the remaining cluster nodes have noticed a lack of response. In addition, when a cluster node notices a lack of response from a particular cluster node, the switch can be queried for link status and traffic information that can be used for fast determination of node status.

  • Patent number: 11445518
    Abstract: Aspects are provided which allow a UE to apply a modified interference cleaning data to account for differences in interference between at least one pilot resource and at least one data resource, thereby improving data decoding performance of the UE. The UE receives at least one pilot resource and at least one data resources from a base station and identifies interference cleaning data based on the pilot resource. The UE then determines whether a first interference affecting the pilot resource is the same as a second interference affecting the data resource. When the first interference is the same as the second interference, the UE applies the interference cleaning data to the data resource. Otherwise, when the first interference is different than the second interference, the apparatus applies a modified interference cleaning data to the data resource.
