  • Patent number: 11941445
    Abstract: In an approach to RLC channel management for low memory 5G devices, responsive to detecting a memory overload in an RLC layer of a 5G user equipment, whether slices of a plurality of slices are merger candidates is determined. Responsive to determining that the slices are merger candidates, whether any merger candidates can share a transportation logical entity is determined, where merger candidates can share the transportation logical entity if performance and quality parameters are within predetermined limits. The merger candidates that can share the transportation logical entity are marked as allowed candidates. Responsive to determining that at least one allowed candidate has a workload that is below a predetermined threshold, the allowed candidates are merged into merged flows.

  • Publication number: 20240095270
    Abstract: An embodiment includes analyzing text content of a user query to identify via natural language processing (NLP) a query topic. The embodiment maps the query topic to a topic cluster at a node of a hierarchical model of a text database. The embodiment generates query demand data indicative of demand for the topic cluster based on user queries. The embodiment identifies the topic cluster as a topic-cache candidate based on the query demand data. The embodiment compares an amount of memory required for storing text associated with the first topic cluster to available cache memory. The embodiment caches the text of the topic cluster candidate upon determining that there is sufficient available cache memory space.

  • Patent number: 11917004
    Abstract: Provided is a system and method which prioritizes data replication packets between a private cloud and a public cloud which provides a backup for the private cloud. In one example, the method may include receiving a request from a software application to write data to a storage location of a private cloud that hosts the software application, identifying storage attributes of the storage location of the private cloud, generating a replication request for replicating the data over a network to a public cloud, embedding a priority tag into the replication request based on the identified storage attributes of the storage location of the private cloud, and transmitting the tagged replication request over the network from the private cloud to the public cloud based on a bandwidth assigned to the embedded priority tag.

  • Patent number: 11902826
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for transmitting an ACK in response to receipt of a data packet in RLC AM mode operation in a 5G communication protocol stack. A first RLC entity receives from a receiving UE corresponding to the first RLC entity: (i) an ACK to be sent to a transmitting UE in response to the receiving UE having received a data packet from the transmitting UE and (ii) a first RLC channel extracted by the receiving UE from a header of the data packet. In response to a first communication having specified that the first RLC channel is congested, the first RLC entity selects a second, different RLC channel operating in the RLC AM mode and not being congested. The first RLC entity sends the ACK to the transmitting UE via the second RLC channel instead of via the first RLC channel.

  • Publication number: 20230394828
    Abstract: A telecom network monitoring method and associated computer program product and hardware device. Location and activation sight information is collected via a plurality of image retrieval devices associated with a plurality of hardware devices connected to a telecom network. Object elevation, movement, and abstraction attributes of objects within images retrieved from the plurality of image retrieval devices are collected from a metadata database. Based on the object elevation, movement, and abstraction attributes of objects within the images, obstruction characteristics associated with obstruction objects of the objects located within a coverage area of the telecom network are detected. The obstruction characteristics are mapped with login and disturbance patterns of the telecom network. Based on results of the mapping, an alternative transmission location within the telecom network is determined.

  • Patent number: 11740978
    Abstract: In an approach for in-band selective data snapshot using fifth generation (5G) radio link control (RLC) channels for edged cloud application backups, a processor creates one or more RLC channels to transfer network data packets in a telecommunication network using a network slicing technology. A processor allocates the one or more RLC channels to one or more applications in a user device for dedicated packet routing requirements. A processor maps the corresponding RLC channels and applications with corresponding identifiers, respectively. A processor monitors the one or more applications for backups. A processor, in response to receiving an application's backup request, creates a copy of a datastore associated with the application based on changes monitored in the one or more applications.

  • Patent number: 11736336
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for performing real-time monitoring of machine learning models. Real-time model state data and metadata (e.g., operating dataset) of the machine learning models located within an orchestration plane of a network are collected by agents located within the machine learning models. The portion of the collected real-time model state data and metadata that is to be provided to the user by the service orchestrator (configured to monitor the machine learning models in the service orchestration plane via the use of agents in the machine learning models) is selected and marked. The marked collected real-time model state data and metadata are then provided to the user by the service orchestrator. In this manner, real-time monitoring of the machine learning models in the orchestration plane, such as the service orchestration plane, of a broadband cellular network (e.g., fifth generation broadband cellular network) is achieved.

  • Patent number: 11728955
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for implementing dynamic telecom network agent filtering is provided. The method includes retrieving peripheral data associated with user equipment (UE) enabled with respect to a telecom network associated with a telecom network hardware device. The peripheral data is mapped with a pre-defined filter selection model and a filtering agent model is selected. Likewise, filtering agents associated with the UE are selected and environmental characteristics associated with the telecom network are retrieved. A location of the UE is tagged and the filtering agents are pushed to the UE. Network commands associated with execution of the filtering agents are generated and the filtering agents are executed with respect to the UE. In response, noise and distortion occurring during operation of the UE with respect to the telecom network is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20230169390
    Abstract: An approach is provided in which the approach stores, in a cached recycle bin, a set of sensor data that is sent from a sensor at a transmit frequency. The approach samples at least a portion of the set of sensor data from the cached recycle bin based on a sampling frequency and training a machine learning model using the sampled data. In response to detecting that a performance of the machine learning model falls below a threshold during the training, the approach adjusts the sampling frequency and re-sampling at least a portion of the sensor data based on the adjusted sampling frequency. The approach instructs the sensor to adjust the transmit frequency in response to determining that the performance of the machine learning model reaches the threshold using the re-sampled data.

  • Publication number: 20230113301
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for managing queries to non-relational databases. A query to retrieve an object from a storage system of a non-relational database system is received from an application. A disk volume of the storage system is then identified from a record of the requested object. Upon identifying the disk volume, the logical and/or physical input/output connections to the identified disk volume that are tagged to dissimilar CPU cores of the storage system are identified. One of the identified logical and/or physical input/output connections is then selected based on the input/output access characteristics of the identified logical and/or physical input/output connections, the CPU core speeds for the CPU cores and a determined level of urgency for the retrieval of the object. The request is then sent to the storage system over the selected input/output connection.
