Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method includes applying transport protocol heuristics to selective acknowledgement (SACK) messages received at a network adapter from a network node. The transport protocol heuristics identify threshold values for operational functions that are performed when processing the SACK messages. The method further includes determining, by applying the transport protocol heuristics to the SACK messages received from the network node, that the threshold values for the transport protocol heuristics have been reached. In response to determining that the threshold values have been reached, the method includes identifying the network node as a security threat and taking remedial actions to mitigate the security threat. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A wye ring centering system is provided. The system includes a plurality of rollers configured for contacting a wye ring, and a plurality of mounting fasteners configured for supporting the plurality of rollers. Each of the mounting fasteners is configured to pass through a fan hub. The plurality of rollers and the plurality of mounting fasteners are distributed at substantially equal intervals around the fan hub. The wye ring is placed over the plurality of rollers to center the wye ring around a shaft.

Abstract: A flow in a flow set having an access control (“AC”) policy assigned is monitored. A bandwidth used by the flow is determined. One or more packets associated with the flow are selectively dropped based on at least one of the used bandwidth and the AC policy.

Abstract: A packet is received. A flow associated with the packet is determined. An access control (“AC”) policy for the flow is determined. The flow in a flow set is organized for transmission based at least on the AC policy. A bandwidth for the flow is monitored. The flow is marked for transmission based on the monitoring.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to adhesive systems and methods of making and using such systems. Exemplary adhesive systems comprise protrusions and/or grooves that can interleave to form a reversible adhesive interaction.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a proxy configured to couple to a sender and a receiver and to receive data from the sender at a first rate and forward the data to the receiver at a second rate that is less than the first rate. A method comprising detecting a reception speed for each of a plurality of receivers in a multicast group, assigning the receivers to a first group and a second group based on the reception speed of each of the receivers, wherein the first group has a reception speed that is faster than a reception speed of the second group, and sending multicast data intended for all of the receivers to the receivers in the first group and to a proxy at a first rate, wherein the proxy buffers the multicast data and sends the multicast data to the receivers in the second group at a second rate.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a processor configured to startup a new process on a peer processor to off-load a load of a local process on the processor in a dynamic manner based on monitoring an amount of resources used by the processor, wherein the startup of the new process on the peer processor is initiated when the amount of resources used by the local process reaches a threshold.

Abstract: A system for rebalancing a generator rotor includes a temporary bearing shield configured to support a non-drive end of the generator rotor, and a pony motor assembly configured for attachment to a drive end of the generator rotor. The pony motor assembly is configured to rotate the generator rotor during a rebalancing operation. The temporary bearing shield and the pony motor assembly enable the generator rotor to be rotated during an in-situ rebalancing operation.
