Abstract: A method and system for minimizing the control overhead in a multi-carrier wireless communication network that utilizes a time-frequency resource is disclosed. In some embodiments, one or more zones in the time-frequency resource are designated for particular applications, such as a zone dedicated for voice-over-IP (VoIP) applications. By grouping applications of a similar type together within a zone, a reduction in the number of bits necessary for mapping a packet stream to a portion of the time-frequency resource can be achieved. In some embodiments, modular coding schemes associated with the packet streams may be selected that further reduce the amount of necessary control information. In some embodiments, packets may be classified for transmission in accordance with application type, QoS parameters, and other properties. In some embodiments, improved control messages may be constructed to facilitate the control process and minimize associated overhead.

The method for an application layer traffic optimization server, related to a terminal side, comprising: obtaining a domain name of a proxy server for a terminal data layer to access internet; obtaining, according to a query name constructed using the domain name of the proxy server, an address of an application layer traffic optimization ALTO server related to the proxy server from a domain name server DNS; and communicating with the ALTO server according to the address of the ALTO server. Embodiments of the present disclosure are mainly applied to the communication between the terminal and the ALTO server.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a resource control method and apparatus. A client sends an authorization request message to a content provider. The content provider sends an authorization response message to the client according to a user identifier carried in the authorization request message, where the authorization response message carries an authorized access token. The client sends a content request message to a storage server corresponding to the content provider, where the content request message carries an identifier of content requested by the client and the authorized access token. The client receives the content sent by the storage server according to the authorized access token. The present invention is applied to the field of network resource management.
