Abstract: Approaches are described for release-time-driven (RTD) prioritization of on-board content scheduling and delivery to in-transit transport craft via communications systems. In context of a constrained network, content is scheduled to be delivered to those in-transit on-board media servers in a manner driven by respective release times and other prioritization factors associated with the updated content. Each content is associated with a RTD priority profile that can define a release time, a release priority, and a profile plot for the content. The RTD priority profiles can be used to compute priority surfaces that define priority scores over a multidimensional space for a particular time. A subset of the content can be selected for delivery based on the priority surfaces, and can be scheduled for delivery according to network capacity determinations.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for utilizing dynamic request queues to process electronic requests in a shared infrastructure environment. The disclosed system dynamically generates a plurality of separate request queues for tenant computing systems that utilize a shared processing infrastructure to issue electronic requests for processing by various recipient processors (e.g., one or more processing threads) by separating a primary request queue into the separate requests queues based on the tenant computing systems. The disclosed system also generates a plurality of queue order scores for the request queues based in part on a processing recency of each of the request queues and whether the request queues have pending electronic requests. The disclosed system processes electronic requests in the request queues by selecting a request queue based on the queue order scores and processing a batch of electronic requests utilizing a recipient processor.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for vehicle identification and device communication through directional wireless signaling. A user's device may include a directional wireless transceiver that may be used to provide wireless signaling in a specific target direction. The user may direct the device at a particular vehicle, where the vehicle may has a transceiver located within or attached to the vehicle that responds to the particular wireless signaling. The vehicle's transceiver may respond to the device of the user with a unique identifier that allows for communication with the vehicle's operator. The unique identifier may therefore allow for message content to be sent directly to a device for the vehicle's operator, or may allow for a service provider to process the message. Additionally, the vehicle's operator may establish privacy settings for communications, which may be utilized to determine whether the message content will be provided to the device.

Abstract: Techniques for allocating channel frequencies in remote physical device. The channel frequencies are sorted in a predefined order, wherein each channel frequency has a symbol rate. Further, the channel frequencies are grouped into one or more channel groups, wherein each channel group comprises one or more channel frequencies. The one or more channel groups are prioritized from highest priority to lowest priority. Further, the one or more channel frequencies are allocated starting from highest priority channel group to largest size window based on available slots in the largest size window and till a difference between last channel frequency and first channel frequency falls within frequency span limit of the largest size window. Further, prioritizing and allocating are repeated till remaining one or more channel frequencies of the one or more channel groups are allocated to next available windows or the next available windows are exhausted.

Abstract: A network and method for connecting devices on a Local Area Network (“LAN”) to the Internet via a Network Address Translation (“NAT”) enabled gateway and server. The gateway includes an Internet address for enabling the gateway to be addressed by the server and the LAN. A plurality of ports on the gateway enables the gateway to receive and transmit data to and from the server and the LAN. A processor divides the ports on the gateway into at least a first range and a second range of port numbers. Classified traffic identified as suitable for a higher level of QoS is assigned to the first range of port numbers, and classified traffic identified as suitable for a lower level of QoS is assigned to the second range. The gateway provides devices on the LAN with a level of QoS depending upon the port numbers to which they are assigned.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for signaling mechanisms associated with transmission puncturing schemes for rateless coding. In some aspects, a transmitting device may encode a message using a rateless code associated with a cumulative encoding of various portions of the message and may perform transmission puncturing to adapt a bit rate of related signal transmissions. The transmitting device may signal an indication of the transmission puncturing scheme, and potentially one or more modifications to the transmission puncturing scheme, to a receiving device via control signaling. The transmitting device may modify the transmission puncturing scheme in accordance with prioritizing retransmissions for some cumulative portions of the message ahead of other cumulative portions, such as by granting prioritized cumulative portions of the message relatively earlier transmission occasions in the transmission puncturing scheme.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for streaming content to multiple devices from a shared sliding window buffer in kernel space, thereby reducing memory resource use and minimizing context/mode switching between kernel space and user space. For example, concurrent streaming sessions may be seen, e.g., as a live multimedia stream. If a live video is being transmitted as a multicast stream to many devices, rather than each device having a corresponding sliding window buffer in kernel space, each device will share a shared sliding buffer in kernel space. The sliding window buffer size will be at least large enough to stream the slowest connection speed and can be, e.g., multiple times as large as necessary, in case of the issues beyond the worst-case scenario. The system then transmits chunks of the content from the shared sliding window buffer to each of the plurality of client devices.
