Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed that pre-classify network traffic monitored within virtual machine (VM) platforms. Client packet monitor applications operate within client VM platforms to monitor network packets, generate monitored packets representing traffic of interest, determine packet classifications for the monitored packets based upon packet contents, identify tags associated with the packet classifications, encapsulate monitored packets with encapsulation headers including the tags to form encapsulated packets, and forward the encapsulated packets to tool VM platforms. Tool packet monitor applications operate within the tool VM platforms to receive the encapsulated packets, identify packet classifications associated with the tags, remove the encapsulation headers from the encapsulated packets, and forward de-encapsulated packets to network destinations based upon the packet classifications.

Abstract: A wireless communication device, comprising radio frequency transceivers which transmit outbound messages to targeted receivers, and receive the inbound messages addressed to the respective transceiver; each having a processor which controls the transceiver to establish communication sessions according to a protocol, and processes targeting and address information. The transceiver communicates with a telephone device having a telephone address book containing information which defines the targets and address for a telephone network and perhaps other networks. The address book entries are human editable through a human machine user interface. The address book entries are intended for centrally controlled switch networks having hierarchically formatted address information, but since these are at least quasi-unique, they are used as address labels in an unswitched peer-to-peer network formed of the transceivers.

Abstract: A method and system to help minimize communication latency. When data is to be transmitted from a transmitting entity to a receiving entity, the transmission will be scheduled to occur in a time interval that selected based on a consideration of the delay-sensitivity of the data and based on a HARQ delay associated with the selected time interval. For instance, if the data is particularly delay-sensitive, then the transmission could be scheduled to occur in a time interval that is selected based on the time interval having a relatively low associated HARQ delay, so as to help reduce the overall delay of the communication. Whereas, if the data is not particularly delay-sensitive, then the transmission could be scheduled to occur in a time interval that has a relatively high associated HARQ delay.
