Abstract: Embodiments described include systems and methods for management and pre-establishment of network application and secure communication sessions. Session logs may be analyzed to identify an application or secure communication sessions likely to be accessed, and prior to receiving a request to establish the session, an intermediary (e.g. another device such as an intermediary appliance or other device, or an intermediary agent on a client such as a client application) may pre-establish the session, performing any necessary handshaking or credential or key exchange processes. When the session is subsequently requested (e.g. in response to a user request), the system may immediately begin using the pre-established session. This pre-establishment may be coordinated within the enterprise providing load balancing and scheduling of session establishment to prevent large processing loads at any one point in time.

Based at least in part on the one or more link quality indicators, the wireless device may select a codec for the voice call.

Abstract: Most semiconductor devices manufactured today, have uniform dopant concentration, either in the lateral or vertical device active (and isolation) regions. By grading the dopant concentration, the performance in various semiconductor devices can be significantly improved. Performance improvements can be obtained in application specific areas like increase in frequency of operation for digital logic, various power MOSFET and IGBT ICs, improvement in refresh time for DRAMs, decrease in programming time for nonvolatile memory, better visual quality including pixel resolution and color sensitivity for imaging ICs, better sensitivity for varactors in tunable filters, higher drive capabilities for JFETs, and a host of other applications.

Abstract: A method and system including a neural network configured to detect whether a source of the networks packets is transmitting in accordance with a recognized application protocol. The neural network analyzes a set of network packets to determine a probability that the network pattern corresponds to a network pattern associated with a recognized application protocol. If the probability associated with a first recognized application protocol exceeds a threshold probability value, the transmission of the set of network packets may be classified as being transmitted in accordance with the first recognized application protocol. If the probabilities corresponding to the respective recognized application protocols do not exceed the threshold probability value, the neural network classifies the transmission of the set of network packets as malware.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the diagnostic methods for identification of the single causative agent or more than one causative agent of ocular and nervous system infections among many probable pathogens, which can cause the infection. All the pathogens affecting a discrete area of eye or nervous system generally cause same clinical manifestations or syndromes. The present invention relates to detection and discrimination of the pathogen among the set of probable pathogens in a single test without resorting to a battery of tests each being directed at detection of one pathogen. The current invention aims at the syndrome based diagnostic replacing the diagnostics based on detection of individual pathogens.

Abstract: A web server and a shared caching server are described for serving dynamic content to users of at least two different types, where the different types of users receive different versions of the dynamic content. A version of the dynamic content includes a validation header, such as an ETag, that stores information indicative of the currency of the dynamic content and information indicative of a user type for which the version of the dynamic content is intended. In response to a user request for the dynamic content, the shared caching server sends a validation request to the web server with the validation header information. The web server determines, based on the user type of the requestor and/or on the currency of the cached dynamic content whether to instruct the shared caching server to send the cached content or to send updated content for serving to the user.
