Publication number: 20240223697Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention are detection systems and methods for detecting call provenance based on call audio. An exemplary embodiment of the detection system can comprise a characterization unit, a labeling unit, and an identification unit. The characterization unit can extract various characteristics of networks through which a call traversed, based on call audio. The labeling unit can be trained on prior call data and can identify one or more codecs used to encode the call, based on the call audio. The identification unit can utilize the characteristics of traversed networks and the identified codecs, and based on this information, the identification unit can provide a provenance fingerprint for the call. Based on the call provenance fingerprint, the detection system can identify, verify, or provide forensic information about a call audio source.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2024Publication date: July 4, 2024Applicant: GEORGIA TECH RESEARCH CORPORATIONInventors: Vijay BALASUBRAMANIYAN, Mustaque AHAMAD, Patrick Traynor, Michael Thomas HUNTER, Aamir POONAWALLA

Publication number: 20080256256Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for maximizing call throughput in a server network by optimizing the balance of stateful to stateless handling or transactions at each server within the network. The identification of transaction messages to be handled statelessly or statefully is made at each proxy server within the network in order to maximize the total throughput at that proxy server within prescribed processor utilization limits. In general, each transaction is handled statefully by at least one server within the network. Reports on the stateful handling of messages and the resource consumption at various proxies are communicated throughout the network to be used in identifying the ratio of messages to be forwarded statefully to messages to be forwarded statelessly at any given proxy.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2007Publication date: October 16, 2008Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Arup Acharya, Vijay A.
