Abstract: A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) proxy server including a multi-core central processing unit (CPU) is presented. The multi-core CPU includes a receiving core dedicated to pre-SIP message processing. The pre-SIP message processing may include message retrieval, header and payload parsing, and Call-ID hashing. The Call-ID hashing is used to determine a post-SIP processing core designated to process messages between particular user pair. The pre-SIP and post-SIP configuration allows for the use of multiple processing cores to utilize a single control plane, thereby providing an accurate topology of the network for each processing core.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a chain of custody management application is configured to receive electronic recordings and physical evidence data, associate them with a security event, and automatically create and embed a hash value that aids in the authentication of both the electronic recordings and the physical evidence. A case management system may create a case record for an incident, present a form to the user, and prompt the user to electronically associate an electronic recording and physical evidence to the case record. The case management system optionally issues a call to a verification system which, in this example, automatically creates a first hash value from the electronic recording data and a second hash value from the physical evidence data. The hash values may then be embedded in an electronic case record form that may be printed on demand for use by government authorities.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and a device for creating an MO instance in the management tree of a terminal device. In the method, a processor in the device adds the node value to an unnamed node or a specified node of the unnamed node in the MO of the management tree in the terminal device. The processor sets the node value of the specified node under the unnamed node as the name of the unnamed node. The specified node is a sub-node of the unnamed node or a node from other MOs.

Abstract: A monitor device for use with an endoscope apparatus, which has first and second display modes. In the first display mode, the monitor device displays, in real time, any image transmitted in a normal radio communication state. In the second display mode, the monitor device displays a noise-free image in real time, if a radio communication error occurs. If one-frame (or one-field) image data is not received within the frame (or field) time due to a communication error, the monitor device displays, in the second display mode, the image data received in a normal state immediately before the one-frame (or one-field) image data, and informs the operator of the communication error.

Abstract: A session monitoring method based on multicast technologies is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining information about members of a multicast group that can be joined by a user in a session, wherein the session between a network and a member of the multicast group in the session is in an alive state; and checking whether the information about the members of the multicast group in the session includes user information corresponding to the user; if the member information includes the user information corresponding to the user, determining that the session between the network and the user as the member of the multicast group in the session is alive. A session monitoring apparatus, a session monitoring system, and an Access Node (AN) based on multicast technologies are also disclosed.

Abstract: A stream data node receives real-time streamed data from one or more input devices, dynamically filters the streamed data to reduce the streamed data, and delivers the reduced data when requested. By providing real-time filtering of the data, the amount of data that must be stored in a database may be substantially reduced. The stream data node can perform aggregation functions, group functions, and select functions, thereby also significantly reducing the amount of data that must be stored in a database. The stream data node may also be part of a query execution data structure, where it delivers its data when requested by another node in the query execution data structure.

Abstract: The performance and hence the user experience of just-in-time application streaming is significantly enhanced by predicting which sections of an application are likely to execute next, and transmitting those sections from the server to the endpoint. A control flow graph of the application is created and analyzed against the execution state of the application such that it can be predicated which code pages the application is likely to utilize next. This analysis can be performed on the server, endpoint or any combination of the two. The predicted code pages are proactively pushed and/or pulled such that the application can continue executing without delay. This significantly enhances the performance of application streaming and network file system technologies, and is especially beneficial for very performance sensitive applications.

Abstract: An extensible binary mark-up language is disclosed that is compatible with existing XML standards yet provides significantly improved efficiencies for XML-based data storage and communications, particularly for narrow and low bandwidth communication media. A corresponding extensible non-binary mark-up language is also disclosed that is compatible with the XML standard. This dual-representation common message format (CMF) allows standard XML tools to be utilized in viewing and editing XML-based data and allows a CMF parser to be utilized to convert the XML formatted information into an extensible binary representation for actual communication through a medium or storage on a wide range of media.
