  • Publication number: 20240311205
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a private network and edge application provisioning management system and a method thereof, which provides a construction of enterprise private cloud platform and a process of management standardization, so that a dedicated cloud operating environment can be provided for enterprise customers, and special software application services can further be established and managed. A remote registration mechanism, an enterprise private network establishment mechanism, and an edge application activation mechanism be proposed in the present disclosure. In this way, edge computing capabilities in the enterprise private network environment can be provided, which can not only reduce application service latency time, but also network transmission does not need to go through the Internet, thus having the advantages of avoiding data leakage and improving security. The present disclosure also provides a computer-readable medium for executing the method of the present disclosure.

  • Patent number: 12028218
    Abstract: A system and a method for managing a virtual network function (VNF) and a multi-access edge computing (MEC) topology are provided. The method includes the following steps. A first VNF descriptor (VNFD) corresponding to a first VNF is received. According to the first VNFD, first provision data is generated. According to the first VNFD, first internal topology information of the first VNF is generated. According to the first provision data, the first VNF is instantiated to be provisioned. In response to provisioning the first VNF, a graphical user interface including the first internal topology information is output, and the first internal topology information includes a network component communicatively connected to the first VNF.

  • Publication number: 20080278911
    Abstract: A cooling fan and dynamic pressure bearing structure is disclosed. The cooling fan includes a base portion, a bearing portion, a dynamic pressure bearing, a coil assembly, and an impeller assembly. The dynamic pressure bearing is received in the bearing portion. A plurality of pressure collecting grooves is arranged in an inner surface of a shaft hole of the dynamic pressure bearing at intervals for receiving lubricating oil. Each pressure collecting groove has two slanted grooves extending slantways which connect with each other at one end to form a connecting point. A transverse groove extends from the connecting point backward the direction of the two slanted grooves. Based on the special design of the pressure collecting groove, the present invention increases the area that creates pressure to increase the intensity of the pressure and decrease the number of pressure collecting grooves to reduce processing loads and production costs.

  • Publication number: 20050089121
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a re-configurable Viterbi decoder. By re-setting the values of some registers, the inside control path and data path of the Viterbi decoder can be appropriately changed so as to meet the requirements of different communication systems. The Viterbi decoder comprises a branch metric calculator for receiving data items to be decoded and calculating the branch metrics; an add-compare-select unit for performing an add-compare-select operation on the output of the branch metric calculator and the corresponding path metric; a path metric storage unit (PMS unit) for saving a new path metric produced by the add-compare-select operation in an in-place way; a path memory for storing the shifted out selection bit after the add-compare-select operation; and a trace back unit for reading the selection bit of the path memory so as to perform the feedback decoding.
