  • Patent number: 9705756
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may include methods, systems, and computer readable media with executable instructions. An example method for network virtualization can include providing, by a datacenter (100) having physical and/or virtual resources, a number of virtual tenant datacenters (tDatacenters), each tDatacenter being isolated from other tDatacenters. A tenant virtual local area network (T-VLAN) (226, 228, 682) is associated to each of the number of tDatacenters, and a value of an end-to-end invariant network virtual local area network (VLAN) identification (VID) label (T-VID) is associated to a particular T-VLAN (226, 228, 682). A network packet associated with the particular T-VLAN (226, 228, 682) is modified at an edge network boundary (561) to include the T-VID. The T-VID is configured to have more than 4096 possible values.

  • Publication number: 20130107887
    Abstract: In a method for maintaining virtual network context across multiple infrastructures, a data packet having a virtual network identifier in a first routing infrastructure is accessed, wherein the virtual network identifier indicates a tenant network. The data packet is encapsulated for transport of the data packet through a second routing infrastructure. In addition, the virtual network identifier is inserted into the encapsulation of the data packet for routing of the data packet through the second routing infrastructure while maintaining virtual network context and identification between the first routing infrastructure and the second routing infrastructure, wherein the first routing infrastructure operates under a first virtual networking technology and the second routing infrastructure operates under a second virtual networking technology.

  • Patent number: 8265801
    Abstract: A visual display system includes a monitor for displaying a visual display; a memory having a user application definition file containing information related to the visual display; and a processor coupled to the monitor and the memory, the processor configured to receive runtime parameters from a flight management system and provide the visual display to the monitor based on the runtime parameters and the user application definition file. The visual display includes at least one hotkey.

  • Publication number: 20100010437
    Abstract: A steerable catheter having a catheter tip connected to an elongated catheter body, with the catheter tip having an elastomeric cylindrical body and one or more steering lumens each offset from the longitudinal axis of the elastomeric cylindrical body and extending substantially the length of the elastomeric cylindrical body so that increasing the internal pressure of one or more of the steering lumens using, for example, a pneumatic or hydraulic pressure source or heating a thermally expandable media in the steering lumens, operates to curl the longitudinal axis of the elastomeric cylindrical body towards the internally pressurized steering lumen or lumens for steering the catheter tip.
