  • Publication number: 20160164780
    Abstract: A packet routing method for directing packets of a session in an IP network causes an intermediate node to obtain a lead packet of a plurality of packets in a given session. The intermediate node has an electronic interface in communication with the IP network and obtains the lead packet through that same interface. The method maintains, in a routing database, state information relating to a plurality of sessions in the IP network. Each session includes a single stateful session path formed by an ordered plurality of nodes in the IP network, and the state information includes information about the ordered plurality of nodes in the sessions. The method further accesses the routing database to determine the state of a plurality of sessions, and forms a stateful given path for packets of the given session across the IP network as a function of the state information in the routing database.

  • Publication number: 20160147636
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for testing the resiliency of a software application. The computer implemented method can test the resiliency of a software application by monitoring the program state of the software application and trigger a shutdown request when the specified program state has been reached. The shutdown request can be transmitted to the application software and executed to shut down one or more functionalities of the software application. In some examples, the method can specify the functionality to shut down and the program state which the shutdown occurs can be specified in an application configuration file.

  • Publication number: 20160094444
    Abstract: An intermediate node obtains a lead packet of a plurality of packets in a session having a unique session identifier, modifies the lead packet to identify at least the intermediate node, and then forwards the lead packet toward the destination node though an intermediate node electronic output interface to the IP network. The intermediate node also receives, through an intermediate node electronic input interface in communication with the IP network, a backward message from a next node having a next node identifier. The backward message includes the next node identifier and the session identifier. The intermediate node forms an association between the next node identifier and the session identifier, stores the association in memory to maintain state information for the session, and obtains (e.g., receives) additional packets of the session. Substantially all of the additional packets in the session are forwarded toward the next node using the stored association.

  • Publication number: 20160089549
    Abstract: A method for dose-gradient based optimization of an intensity modulated radiation therapy plan. First, an optimizer (6) performs a first optimization (40) of the plan to generate dose distributions corresponding to the plan. Next, the optimizer (6) generates a beam specific dose gradient map (42) for each beam of the plan. Then, new dose gradients are specified (44) for the plan. Last, the optimizer (6) performs a final optimization (46) using the new dose gradients. The final optimization is given the new dose gradients as soft constraints into an objective function. The optimizer (3) applies a limiting factor to the objective function such that a first dose gradient is limited by the optimizer only if the first dose gradient exceeds the new dose gradient for a specific beamlet.
