Patent number: 12137155Abstract: A device may receive network protocol data identifying a network protocol trace associated with network devices of a network, and may divide the network protocol trace into multiple segments. The device may identify a set of segments, in the multiple segments, that includes a first segment and second segments related to the first segment, and may process the multiple segments, in parallel, to determine first results data corresponding to the multiple segments. The device may process the second segments, in parallel, to determine second results data, and may combine the first results data and the second results data to generate final results data, wherein the final results data indicate utilization by the network devices of a network protocol associated with the network. The device may perform one or more actions based on the final results data.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2023Date of Patent: November 5, 2024Assignee: VIAVI Solutions Inc.Inventors: Jason Mann, Yamini Shastry, George Bullis

Publication number: 20180282163Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to methods of making graphene quantum dots from a carbon source by exposing the carbon source to a solution that contains an oxidant. The exposing results in the formation of the graphene quantum dots from the carbon source. The carbon sources can include coal, coke, biochar, asphalt, and combinations thereof. The oxidants can include an acid, such as nitric acid. In some embodiments, the oxidant consists essentially of a single acid, such as nitric acid. Various embodiments of the present disclosure also include steps of separating the formed graphene quantum dots from the oxidant by various methods, such as evaporation. In various embodiments, the methods of the present disclosure also include steps of enhancing a quantum yield of the graphene quantum dots, reducing the formed graphene quantum dots, and controlling the diameter of the formed graphene quantum dots.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2015Publication date: October 4, 2018Applicant: William Marsh Rice UniversityInventors: James M.

Publication number: 20050076113Abstract: Embodiments of the invention may further provide a method for adjusting the granularity of a network analysis sample while maintaining validity. The method includes calculating states for each device in the network for a first number of predetermined equal intervals within a first sample window, selecting a second sample window that is smaller than the first sample window, selecting a second predetermined number of equal intervals for the second sample window, and determining an interval from the first number of predetermined intervals that immediately precedes an initial interval of the second predetermined number of equal intervals. The method further includes using the calculated state from the preceding interval to calculate a starting state for the initial interval, and calculating state for each device in the network for each of the second predetermined number of equal intervals.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2003Publication date: April 7, 2005Inventors: Steve Klotz, Jason Mann, Timothy McDaniel

Publication number: 20050063320Abstract: A cross-port analysis method is provided to analyze multichannel traces in a network. More particularly, cross-port analysis is a method allowing for aggregate network analysis capabilities from a multi-channel analyzer. This can be performed as traces of network traffic generated by each port on two or more analyzers. Precise timestamps are recorded for each trace and the topology of devices on the network is determined. An expert analysis is then performed on the captured data traces.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2004Publication date: March 24, 2005Inventors: Steven Klotz, Jason Mann, Timothy McDaniel

Patent number: 6215771Abstract: A telecommunications network comprising a plurality of nodes interconnected via communications paths is configured by the determination of a routing plan for the traffic carried by the network. A set of possible paths, e.g. the eight shortest paths between each pair of network nodes is determined, and each path is allocated a digital code characteristic of that path identity. Groups of paths are selected, each group comprising one path from each set, and for each said group being characterised by a bit string comprising the digital codes of the paths comprising that group. These bit strings are then used as starting values or chromosomes in a genetic algorithm search procedure to generate and evaluate new path groups so as to determine an optimum combination or routing plan of paths between the network nodes.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 1998Date of Patent: April 10, 2001Assignee: Nortel Networks LimitedInventors: John Turner, George Smith, Jason Mann
