Publication number: 20160127141Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for the repair of IP multicast sessions. A repair server polls multiple transmit servers to accumulate as many of the packets missing from the multicast session as possible. A network includes a source of multicast packets in a multicast session and a plurality of multicast recipients in that session. A repair server in the network provides the packets it receives to the recipients. The repair server includes a missing packet detector. There is a plurality of retransmit servers in the network buffering portions of the packets they respectively receive during the session. The repair server maintains an ordered list of the retransmit servers that are most likely to have buffered copies of packets missing from the session. When the repair server detects that there are packets missing from the session it has received, it uses the ordered list to sequentially request the missing packets from respective ones of the plurality of retransmit servers.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2016Publication date: May 5, 2016Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Nicholas Frank Maxemchuk, David McManamon, David Hilton Shur, Aleksandr Zelezniak

Patent number: 5855171Abstract: A method and apparatus are proposed for cleaning the ink chamber (27) of the ink rail (11) of a printing machine ink supply system and from whch ink is delivered to an ink roller through a multiplicity of side-by-side stepped feed holes (29) in the rail (11) , the method and apparatus utilising a plug (41) freely slidable within the chamber (27) and adapted to purge the chamber (27) of ink present in advance of the plug (41) on its movement longitudinally of the chamber. In analogous manner the plug (41) may be used to effect a colour change as between ink sources provided at opposite ends of the rail. (FIG. 2).Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 1997Date of Patent: January 5, 1999Inventors: David McManamon, Stephen McManamon
