Abstract: Maintaining a database of a plurality of time series data sets, wherein each time series data set is associated to a previously known computer device of a computer network; detecting a connection request from a second computer device of the computer network; collecting one or more new data sets related to the second computer device; comparing the one or more new data sets with one or more time series data sets; calculating one or more value scores related to the plurality of time series data sets based on the comparison; and determining a device association score based on the calculated one or more value scores related to the plurality of time series data sets, wherein the device association score determines an association level between the previously known computer device and the second computer device of the computer network.

Abstract: Described is a method of managing the bonding of transmissions over a legacy transmission system and over a new transmission system, the legacy transmission system comprising a legacy Cable Modem Termination System (CMTS), the new transmission system comprising a new CMTS and configured to transmit data using a new mode, the method comprising: receiving data at the new CMTS, the data comprising an identification of a receiver as a destination for the data, the legacy receiver configured to receive data transmitted using the legacy mode; monitoring an output of the legacy CMTS; and determining, based on the monitored output, whether to route the data to the legacy CMTS to transmit to the receiver.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and system for managing transmission of data between a hub and a receiver, the hub connected to the receiver by a first transport medium, and the hub connected to the receiver by a wireless network, the method comprising receiving a request from the receiver to transmit data upstream; determining that the data transmission across the first transport medium is congested; and, in response to determining that the data transmission across the first transport medium congested, instructing the receiver to transmit data upstream on the wireless network.
