Abstract: Methods and apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may be used in environments where multiple different virtual sets of program instructions are executed by shared computing resources. These methods may allow actions associated with a first set of virtual software to be paused to allow a second set of virtual software to be executed by the shared computing resources. In certain instances, methods and apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may manage the operation of one or more sets of virtual software at a point in time. Apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may include a memory and one or more processors that execute instructions out of the memory. At certain points in time, a processors of a computing system may pause a virtual process while allowing instructions associated with another virtual process to be executed.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for unified bandwidth management for network traffic. In particular, two or more network devices may be grouped into a single set, and bandwidth management is performed on the single set. The grouping of network devices into a single set facilitates dynamic adjustment of bandwidth management based on real-time variations in network traffic that may arise during standard operations of the network.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an apparatus, a method, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for managing bandwidth in a computer network. The method may identify that a first received packet belongs to a first traffic class and a second received packet belongs to a second traffic class where the first traffic class is associated with a higher priority than the second traffic class. The method may also identify that the first and the second traffic classes compete for shared bandwidth at the computer network. The method may monitor a number of bytes received that are associated with the first traffic class and second traffic class and perform a series of calculations used to adjust a window size according to the relative priorities of the first and the second traffic class.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system, method, and non-transitory storage medium executable by one or more processors at a multi-processor system that improves load monitoring and processor-core assignments as compared to conventional approaches. A method consistent with the present invention includes a first data packet being received at a multi-processor system. After the first packet is received it may be sent to a first processor where the first processor identifies a first processing task associated with the first data packet. The first data packet may then be forwarded to a second processor that is optimized for processing the first processing task of the first data packet. The second processor may then process the first processing task of the first data packet. Program code associated with the first processing task may be stored in a level one (L1) cache at the first processor.
