Abstract: A gateway turns encrypted PS data traffic on the Iub interface into clear IP packets so that WAN stream de-duplication and other optimization can be performed to eliminate the transfer of repetitive data across the Iub interface, thereby increasing the throughput between the NodeB and the RNC of the WCDMA network. The gateway pulls PS data traffic out from Iub without disturbing the signaling and CS traffic. The bifurcated PS data traffic is redirected to the GTP I/O port of the gateway where the stream de-duplication is applied. Deployment of the gateway is transparent to the WCDMA network. No network reconfiguration is required to deploy the gateway on the Iub interface.

Abstract: Transferring data by a gateway that is connected to a network with a SIMM-node. In response to a request to establish multi-MAC address routing information of a SIMM-node, multiple MAC addresses are obtained, corresponding to an IP address of the SIMM-node. The multi-MAC address routing information, including information in a route table, an ARP table, and a NEXT_HOP table, is established by adding to the ARP table corresponding relationships of the IP address with the multiple MAC addresses of the SIMM-node. The corresponding relationships of the IP address with the multiple MAC addresses of the SIMM-node is added to the NEXT_HOP table. Routing entries of the SIMM-node are established in the route table. In response to receiving a data message sent to the IP address of the SIMM-node, the message is routed by using the established multi-MAC address routing information of the SIMM-node.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and predictive modeling method specially designed to improve process control and energy efficiency for a smelting process used to produce pure metal from an ore containing said metal.
