Patent number: 11303554Abstract: A processor instantiates a virtual network function (VNF) and a probe to monitor at least one metric associated with the VNF. The processor also allocates a pool of ports to the probe. A transceiver establishes one or more first interfaces between the probe and one or more applications using one or more first ports from the pool of ports. Information such as metrics generated by the ports is concurrently exchange between the probe and the applications using the first interfaces. In some cases, a second interface is established between the probe and a monitoring server. The probe reports mission critical events to the applications via the first interfaces and non-mission critical events to the monitoring server via the second interface concurrently with reporting the mission critical events.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Yu-Chia Tseng, Gopalasingham Aravinthan, Bogdan Uscumlic, Liat Pele, Guillermo Rodriguez-Navas

Patent number: 11263527Abstract: A method provides a set of predicted responses to a user. The method includes receiving a message from a user, the message having natural language information. The method includes processing, using cognitive switching logic (CSL), the natural language information and information from previous messages from the user. The method includes identifying, using CSL, a context of the natural language information based on the information from the previous messages. The method includes identifying, using CSL, at least one knowledge domain which contains a response to the message, based on the identified context and on user persona information. The method includes retrieving a response from each identified knowledge domain. The method further includes, in response to retrieving more than one response, transmitting feedback to CSL to refine identifying the at least one knowledge domain until only one response is retrieved. The method further includes presenting the one response to the user.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: Kyndryl, Inc.Inventors: Nicolo' Sgobba, Erik Rueger, Guillermo Rodriguez de Vera Beltri
