Abstract: A network node in an optical network dynamically generates a routing table based on attributes of the optical network. The network node obtains attributes characterizing the optical network, which includes multiple network nodes connected by optical links. The network node calculates cost values for sending data from the network node to one or more next hop nodes that are connected to the network node. Each particular cost value is associated with a probability of success of sending the data to a particular next hop node based on a particular permutation of the attributes characterizing the optical network. The network node generates a routing table correlating the permutations of the attributes with each next hop node based on the cost values.

Abstract: A method of detecting bots, preferably in an operating environment supported by a content delivery network (CDN) that comprises a shared infrastructure of distributed edge servers from which CDN customer content is delivered to requesting end users (clients). The method begins as clients interact with the edge servers. As such interactions occur, transaction data is collected. The transaction data is mined against a set of “primitive” or “compound” features sets to generate a database of information. In particular, preferably the database comprises one or more data structures, wherein a given data structure associates a feature value with its relative percentage occurrence across the collected transaction data. Thereafter, and upon receipt of a new transaction request, primitive or compound feature set data derived from the new transaction request are compared against the database. Based on the comparison, an end user client associated with the new transaction request is then characterized, e.g.
