Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems facilitating hierarchical network traffic classification and resource allocation schemes. In one embodiment, the present invention provides traffic classification data structure facilitating creation and configuration of multi-dimensional, hierarchical network resource allocation schemes. The present invention features a hierarchical network traffic classification scheme that allows users to logically embed (or otherwise associate) one or more reference trees within selected traffic class nodes of a given traffic classification tree. In one embodiment, an administrator can create a pool of referenceable traffic classification trees and select such trees or sub-trees from the pool to achieve a variety of different traffic classification configurations.

Abstract: A system for receiving at least one electromyogram signal representing physiological activity in a quadruped. The system may comprise a first probe and a wireless receiver in wireless communication with the first probe. Also, an electromyogram device for determining a neuromuscular balance of a quadruped. The device may comprise a first probe and a second probe. The device may also comprise a processor in communication with the first probe and the second probe. The processor may be configured to compare a first electromyogram signal captured from the first probe and a second electromyogram signal captured from the second probe. Additional embodiments include an electrode for receiving an electromyogram signal representing physiological activity in a quadruped and a method for analyzing the physiology of a quadruped.
