Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for distribution of a workload among nodes of a NUMA architecture. Techniques disclosed include receiving the workload and data batches, the data batches to be processed by the workload. Techniques disclosed further include assigning workload processes to the nodes according to a determined distribution, and, then, executing the workload according to the determined distribution. The determined distribution is selected out of a set of distributions, so that the execution time of the workload, when executed according to the determined distribution, is minimal.

Abstract: Devices, methods, and systems for determining N-dimensional MaxPool or AvgPool for a M-dimensional input array. For each of N dimensions, in order from highest to lowest dimension i: the M dimensional input array is decomposed into 1 dimensional (1D) input arrays in the ith dimension, 1D MaxPool or AvgPool is performed on each of the 1D input arrays in the ith dimension to generate 1D output arrays in the ith dimension, and the M dimensional input array is recomposed from the 1D output arrays in the ith dimension to update the M-dimensional input array. In MaxPool, the updated M-dimensional input array is output as an M-dimensional output array. In AvgPool, each element of the updated M-dimensional input array is divided by a kernel size to form the M-dimensional output array.

Abstract: A broadband communication system with improved latency is disclosed. The system employs acceleration of secure web-based communications over a satellite communication network. In accordance with aspects of the invention, secure protocol acceleration is employed such that required protocol signals transmitted from a computer employing a web browser may be intercepted by a remote terminal. To insure that the browser will continue transmitting data, the remote terminal generates required acknowledgment and security signals to continue the secure communication, which may then transmitted back to the computer. Meanwhile, the received protocol signals may be converted by the remote terminal for transmission through the satellite communications system in a format appropriate for that communication medium. Aspects of the invention further include a hub or similar device for communicating with the satellite communications system.

Abstract: A network appliance may be configured to transmit data over a multiple networks from one or more client applications, for example, enterprise business applications. The network appliance may receive and analyze information regarding the multiple different networks transmitting over different transmission media, e.g., terrestrial and wireless, and to switch a client application from a primary network to a backup network based on a detected change in network availability. For example, the determination to switch transmission networks may be based on an outage of a primary network, or based on an efficiency or cost analysis, along with other factors. The network appliance may be in communication with an appliance network server, for example, to receive and compile statistics and remotely reconfigure a plurality of network appliances installed in remote locations.
