Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for reducing distributed storage operation latency using segment routing. In some examples, a method can involve receiving, from a client, a message identifying an intent to store or retrieve data on a distributed storage environment, and sending to the client a segment routing (SR) list identifying storage node candidates for storing or retrieving the data. The method can involve steering a data request from the client through a path defined by the SR list based on a segment routing header (SRH) associated with the request, the SRH being configured to steer the request through the path until a storage node from the storage node candidates accepts the request. The method can further involve sending, to the client device, a response indicating that the storage node has accepted the request and storing or retrieving the data at the storage node that accepted the request.

Abstract: A method includes generating a first shortest path tree for traffic routing in a network, the first shortest path tree identifying a corresponding shortest path from the network node to other nodes in the network and generating a second shortest path tree for traffic routing after removing an element from the network. The second shortest path tree identifies a corresponding shortest path from the network node to the other nodes in the network with the element removed. A third shortest path tree is generated, which is a weighted version of the second shortest path tree with a weight value added to any node or link in the network sharing a SRLG value with the element removed from the network. Network traffic is enforced based on a comparison of the third shortest path tree with at least one of the first shortest path tree and the second shortest path tree.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for using geofences to restrict vehicle operation. Aspects of the invention include creating dynamic geofences and limiting vehicle movements (e.g., speed, acceleration, steering, etc.) within and in the vicinity of the dynamic geofences to protect pedestrians from physical harm. In general, radio devices track people in an area by counting the number of devices and calculating the number of people based on average number of devices per person. Using count and location data, a geofence is created when population or population density within an area exceeds a threshold. The geofence can be sent to vehicles to restrict vehicle operation, for example, slowing down or stopping the vehicle, within and around the geofence.

Abstract: Techniques are described for supporting multiple virtual networks over an underlay network. The techniques may provide support for network slicing and enhanced virtual private networks (VPNs) over an underlay network. In general, the techniques include allocating a subset of resources (e.g., nodes and/or links) of the underlay network to a particular virtual network, and advertising the subset of resources to provider edge (PE) routers that are participating in the virtual network.
