Abstract: A method for profiling network traffic of a network. The method includes capturing packets based at least on a common source IP address shared by each of the packets, where said each packet is assigned a source timestamp by a source of said each packet and further assigned a capture timestamp by a packet capturing device, identifying a first portion of the packets as a first flow and a second portion of the packets as a second flow, extracting a first monotonic timestamp-pair (MTSP) sequence and a second MTSP sequence from the first flow and the second flow, respectively, comparing the first MTSP sequence and the second MTSP sequence to generate a result, and determining, based on the result, whether the first flow and the second flow are generated by a single host of the network.

Abstract: A screen printing method of LED module with phosphor includes: board preparation providing an LED module board with a substrate and a plurality of LED sources fixed on the substrate. The LED sources are flip chip structural and the metal electrodes thereof are fixed to the bonding pads of the substrate. A screen board is provided with meshes corresponding to the shiny sides of the LED sources of the substrate one by one. A projection of each mesh to the shiny side of the corresponding LED source has similar shape with the shiny side of the LED source. The top of the screen board is printed with allocated colloidal phosphor until each mesh is coated fully. The printed substrates are baked to solidify the phosphor. The periphery of the shiny side is fully coated.

Abstract: A method for accessing (e.g., processing, storing, retrieving, etc.) network traffic data of a network. The method includes using separate data analysis device and data access device for capturing and analyzing network traffic data blocks concurrently and cooperatively to store and retrieve large amount of high speed network traffic data. In particular, the data analysis device and the data access device are synchronized using a linked set containing unique data block identifier and associated packet identifiers. The synchronization allows the data analysis device to focus on the full packet analysis task and the data access device to focus on the full packet storing and retrieving task without analyzing full packet content.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system, and computer readable medium for classifying network traffic based on application signatures generated during a training phase. The application signatures are generated using (a) seeding flows obtained from a network trace based on a pre-determined selection criterion, and (b) for each seeding flow, a seeded flow group that is obtained from the network trace based on a pre-determined seeding criterion associated with the seeding flow. Specifically, persistent data patterns frequently occurring across multiple seeded flow groups are analyzed to generate the signatures.
