Publication number: 20200252147Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method in which a processing system identifies a plurality of performance indicators comprising device performance indicators for a plurality of communication devices on a cellular network and network performance indicators for the cellular network. The method also includes obtaining historical data regarding the plurality of performance indicators for each of a series of time points during a past time period; the historical data for each of the plurality of performance indicators form an array of values for that performance indicator. The method further includes generating from each array a set of inputs to an algorithm for predicting a throughput of the cellular network during a future time period; the set of inputs comprises quantiles of the array, and the algorithm comprises a machine learning algorithm. Other embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2020Publication date: August 6, 2020Applicants: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P., University College Cork - National University of IrelandInventors: Rittwik Jana, Emir Halepovic, Rakesh Sinha, Vijay Gopalakrishnan, Ahmed Zahran, Darijo Raca, Cormac John Sreenan, Balagangadhar G.

Patent number: 10732947Abstract: A workflow is expressed as an arrangement of a set of executable tile. In some embodiments, the tiles include operations expressed in different programming languages. A tile can include a declarative specification of datatypes so that external agents, e.g., workflow services, can identify the datatypes and schemas required as arguments and produced as result; this simplifies the defining of a workflow, e.g., by a workflow coder. A tile can have zero, one, or plural user interfaces; selection of a user interface from plural user interfaces can be based on a user selection, on user roles, or on tile lifecycle stage. Workflow services can communicate with each other so that workflows can be distributed and shifted among processor nodes.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2017Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: WMware, Inc.Inventors: Rakesh Sinha, Vishwas Nagaraja, Danny Holzman, Arjun Dube

Publication number: 20200028608Abstract: A multi-layer network planning system can determine a set of regenerator sites (“RSs”) that have been found to cover all paths among a set of nodes of an optical layer of a multi-layer network and can determine a set of candidate RSs in the optical layer for use by the links between a set of nodes of an upper layer, wherein each RS can be selected as a candidate RS for the links. The system can determine a binary path matrix for the links between the set of nodes of the upper layer. The system can determine a min-cost matrix that includes a plurality of min-cost paths. The system can determine a best RS from the set of candidate RSs and can move the best RS from the set of candidate RSs into the set of RSs for the links. The system can then update the binary path matrix.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2019Publication date: January 23, 2020Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Balagangadhar Bathula, Angela Chiu, Rakesh Sinha, Sheryl Leigh Woodward
