Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a plurality of processing cores, where each processing core is capable of executing at least one of a subset of an instruction set architecture (ISA). The apparatus also includes hardware circuitry to determine, during runtime, whether a thread comprising instructions of a particular ISA subset can execute on a particular processing core, and based on the determination, indicate a capability of the thread to be executed on the particular processing core in subsequent executions.

Abstract: An apparatus of a computing node of a computing network, a method to be performed at the apparatus, one or more computer-readable storage media storing instructions to be implemented at the apparatus, and a system including the apparatus. The apparatus includes a processing circuitry to: receive, from an orchestration block, a first workload (WL) package including a WL and first computing resource (CR) metadata; recompose the first WL package into a second WL package that includes the WL and second CR metadata that is different from the first CR metadata, is based at least in part on CR information regarding a server architecture onto which the WL is to be deployed, and is further to indicate one or more processors of the server architecture onto which the WL is to be deployed; and send the second WL package to one or more processors of the server architecture for deployment of the WL thereon.

Abstract: Queued real-time voice received over a data network is actively managed. Upon detecting that the amount of real-time voice stored in the queue has reached a first threshold, a selection process selects non-consecutive portions of the voice to remove from the queue while maintaining a high Quality of Service (QoS) and ensuring that the queue does not overflow.

Abstract: Network address translation (NAT) for Internet control message protocol (ICMP) packets uses an identifier of the ICMP packet to translate the packets. ICMP packets are identified and the identifier is determined from the ICMP packet header. The identifier is used to create and search entries in a NAT table during translation of the packets.
