  • Publication number: 20240427637
    Abstract: A method is provided performed by a network node for adaptive resource dimensioning for a cloud stack having a plurality of virtualization layers with resource dependencies between the plurality of virtualization layers in an infrastructure. The method includes assigning a workload to a bin in the infrastructure based on one of (i) the bin has a resource capacity that supports a dimension of the workload, and (ii) when the resource capacity of the bin is insufficient (a) create a new bin, and (b) assign the workload to the new bin having a dimensioned resource capacity. The method further includes outputting information representing one of the assigned bin and the assigned new bin for the workload, and a corresponding resource capacity of the assigned bin or the dimensioned resource capacity of the new bin.

  • Patent number: 12009964
    Abstract: A first orchestrator (20-1) for a first domain (10-1) is configured for multi-domain orchestration. The first orchestrator (20-1) receives an inbound orchestration request (22) that requests orchestration of one or more inbound targets (24) and that includes one or more records (26). The one or more records (26) either indicate an ancestry of each of the one or more inbound targets (24) or indicate an ancestry of the inbound orchestration request (22). The first orchestrator (20-1), based on the one or more records (26) included in the inbound orchestration request (22), evaluating whether or not to send from the first domain (10-1) to a second domain (10-2) an outbound orchestration request (28) that requests orchestration of an outbound target (30). The outbound target (30) is one of, or is a descendant of at least one of, the one or more inbound targets (24).

  • Patent number: 11624035
    Abstract: The invention relates to a gas scrubbing process and plant for purifying raw synthesis gas by physical absorption in methanol. A raw synthesis gas stream which includes hydrogen and carbon monoxide as desired constituents and water and acid gases as undesired constituents is admixed with methanol and subsequently cooled below the freezing point of water. According to the invention a liquid phase including methanol and water is separated from the cooled raw synthesis gas stream. Acid gases are removed from the remaining gaseous phase by physical absorption in methanol at elevated pressure. Separating the water from the raw synthesis gas stream before the absorption of the acid gases prevents larger amounts of water passing into the methanol circuit of the gas scrubbing process. This achieves savings in resources and certain plant parts may be smaller than is customary.

  • Publication number: 20230060675
    Abstract: A method and system of deployment of a virtualized service on a cloud infrastructure are described. A first service function specification of a first service function is selected. A determination of a set of the computing systems and a set of the links is performed based on availability and characteristics of the computing systems and the network resources in the cloud infrastructure. A selection of a first computing system to be assigned to host the first service function and links is performed based on the first service function specification and based on interoperability requirements for the first service function and one or more other ones of the service functions that form the virtualized service. The selection of a service function and the determination of a computing system and links is repeated for the remaining service functions until all of the service functions are assigned to resources in the cloud infrastructure.
