Abstract: A method for load balancing network traffic. First network address translation rules are executed with respect to a first data packet of the network traffic to translate initial address space data thereof, with respect to an initial destination network address and port identifier. An entry is generated with respect to the first data packet that includes data related to the translated destination network address and port identifier, and an initial source network address and port identifier. A second data packet is received from a client. The generated entry is identified and implemented in executing second network address translation rules with respect to the second data packet, to translate address space data thereof with respect to an initial destination network address and port identifier, for routing thereof to the host, and upon servicing, for routing thereof directly to the client.

Abstract: In some implementations, caching techniques may be employed by a web server that receives various requests from remotely-located client devices, retrieves requested results from an on-site database server, and transmits the results back to the client devices. These caching techniques generally relate to caching retrieved results at the web server such that the web server may be able to directly provide client devices with results without having to retrieve them from the database server every time a request is received. Application of these techniques may improve response times and provide back-end bandwidth savings.

Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described for reducing a flicker effect of multiple light sources in an image captured with an imaging device. A lighting frequency associated with each of the multiple light sources is detected and prioritized relative to a flicker effect upon the image to identify at least a first-prioritized lighting frequency and a second-prioritized lighting frequency. A first exposure-time factorization set is determined for the first-prioritized lighting frequency, and a second exposure-time factorization set is determined for the second-prioritized lighting frequency. An exposure time of the imaging device is adjusted to an exposure time identified in the first exposure-time factorization set that matches, or aligns near-to-matching, an exposure time identified in the second exposure-time factorization set.
