Abstract: A virtual switch for packet switching includes an ingress traffic steering manager executing on circuitry and coupled to receive packets from multiple virtual machines or containers, multiple data plane providers, each data plane provider having a data path coupled to selectively receive the packets from the ingress traffic steering manager, and wherein the ingress traffic steering manager classifies the received packets and selects available data paths based on the classification of the packets and a set of distribution rules.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology performing a cyclic redundancy check (CRC). Data is divided into a plurality of blocks, each of the plurality of blocks having a fixed size equal to a degree of a generator polynomial. A CRC computation is independently performed on each of the plurality of blocks, and the CRC computation for each of the plurality of blocks is combined by application of an exclusive or (XOR) operation.

Abstract: Various methods and communications devices to reduce a bandwidth utilization of a backhaul link in a wireless communications system are provided. By way of example, bandwidth utilization is reduced by relegating the compression of data to the downlink transmission, storing only reference keys in the cache of the transmitting device, and taking advantage of an asymmetrical cache structure between communicating devices. Support is provided for a user equipment to move from one node to another node.

Abstract: A packet classification system is provided, including a first security database and a second security database for use in connection with packet classification in accordance with an Internet security protocol. The packet classification system further includes processing circuitry in communication with the first security database and the second security database, with the processing circuitry configured to identify at least one aspect of at least one packet received by the processing circuitry, select either the first security database or the second security database as a selected security database, based on the at least one aspect of the at least one packet, select at least one of a plurality of algorithms to classify the at least one packet, wherein the selection of the at least one algorithm is based on a criteria related to the at least one packet, and classify the at least one packet, utilizing the selected security database.

Abstract: Various methods and communications devices to improve bandwidth utilization in a wireless communication network are provided. By way of example, efficient content delivery in a radio access network is achieved by using an accelerator module configured to implement a stack having, among others, a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) layer, a transmission control protocol (TCP) layer, and a de-duplication, Lempel-Ziv (LZ) compression/decompression, and caching layer.
