Publication number: 20220298299Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a ring-opening polymerization method for a cyclic monomer. A specific solution is that a Lewis acid-base pair is used to catalyze ring-opening polymerization of the cyclic monomer in the presence of an initiator. By using the Lewis acid-base pair as a catalyst, on one hand, a range of a ring-opening polymerization catalyst is widened, and on the other hand, this catalyst achieves a higher catalytic efficiency and is milder in comparison with previously reported strong acid or strong base catalysts. In addition, through a bifunctional activation mechanism, this catalyst system activates the monomer and simultaneously activates the initiator or a chain end, and has the characteristics of high efficiency in comparison with the reported monomer activation mechanism or chain end activation mechanism.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2020Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Kai GUO, Zhiwei YAO, Zhenjiang LI, Chan ZHANG, Yuejia ZHU, Lei ZHANG, Zikun LUO

Patent number: 10873529Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining and adjusting traffic rate limits to reduce queuing delays and latency in a data center network. In various embodiments, a network controller receives network topology information and traffic data relating to flows of the network. The traffic data includes traffic matrix information, flow path information, and pause frame distribution information. Based on this information, the network controller identifies server network node interfaces that are the source of a pause frame. Flows associated with such network node interfaces are also identified and ranked based on traffic volume. For ranked flows meeting predetermined criteria, reduced traffic rate limits are calculated and sent to associated server network node interfaces. In some embodiments, the reduced traffic rate limits are incrementally recovered when normal traffic resumes on a paused link.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2017Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: Futurewei Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Fangping Liu, Zhenjiang Li, Serhat Nazim Avci

Patent number: 10397097Abstract: A routing technique provides a routing table which assigns weights in the process of selecting a next hop at a router, while still using an equal cost multipath selection process at the router. The routing table is configured to cross reference an IP address prefix set to a number of next hops which can be all, or fewer than all, available next hops. This occurs in each row of the table for a different IP address prefix set. Subsets of the next hops are identified in each row in a manner which results in the next hops being selected according to specified weights. An estimate of traffic to the different IP address prefix set is also considered. The routing table can be configured based on announce and withdraw messages received from a link weight translator of a controller.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2017Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: Futurewei Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Serhat Nazim Avci, Zhenjiang Li, Fangping Liu

Patent number: 10003538Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology for load balancing link utilization of a networking device based on fractal analysis. In one embodiment, link utilization of switches, routers, etc. in a data center is balanced based on a fractal model of the link utilization. Techniques disclosed herein are proactive.

Publication number: 20180041396Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology for discovering a topology in a network. The discovery procedure includes providing a representation for the topology of the network and transmitting a probe message to a probed network node. The representation identifies neighboring nodes of the probed network node. In response to receiving a returned message corresponding to the probed message from the network, it is determined whether the probe message was returned from a newly discovered neighboring node of the probed network node. In response to determining that the returned message corresponding to the probe message was returned by the newly discovered neighboring node, the representation of the topology is updated to identify the newly discovered neighboring node of the probed network node. The probe message is then transmitted to the newly discovered neighboring node.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2016Publication date: February 8, 2018Applicant: Futurewei Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Zhenjiang Li, Serhat Nazim Avci, Fangping Liu
