20120281536 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTION FOR PRIORITIZING AND SCHEDULING PACKETS IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK - Systems and methods provide a parameterized scheduling system that incorporates end-user application awareness and can be used with scheduling groups that contain data streams from heterogeneous applications. Data packets are analyzed at multiple protocol levels to detect characteristics associated with communicating the packets. The data packets are filtered so that detecting the characteristics is efficiently performed. The detected characteristics can be used for scheduling transmission of the packets. The detected characteristics can be used to dynamically change scheduling parameters. The dynamic scheduling parameters can maximize user Quality of Experience (QoE) in response to recurring network patterns, one-time events, application characteristics, protocol characteristics, device characteristics, service level agreements, or combinations thereof. Scheduling parameters may also incorporate notions of “duration neglect” and “recency effect” in an end-user's perception of video quality in order to manage video traffic during periods of congestion. | 11-08-2012 |
20120327779 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONGESTION DETECTION FOR USE IN PRIORITIZING AND SCHEDULING PACKETS IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK - Systems and methods provide a parameterized scheduling system that incorporates congestion detection and end-user application awareness and can be used with scheduling groups that contain data streams from heterogeneous applications. Congestion can be detected at multiple domains. Congestions can be detected using demand for communications, measure of resource usage in the communication device, or performance of the communication device. Congestions can also be detected using measures of protocol delay. The detected information can be used for scheduling transmission of the packets. Quality of Experience (QoE) for users can be maximized by efficient control responses to detected congestion. | 12-27-2012 |
20130165084 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COOPERATIVE APPLICATIONS IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - Systems and methods provide communications between applications in terminal nodes and applications agents in access nodes. The APP-agent cooperative communications can be used to improve quality of experience for users or the terminal nodes. An access node may, for example, have a parameterized scheduling system that incorporates information from the APP-agent cooperative communications in determining scheduling parameters. An application at a terminal node may, for example, modify requests for communication based on information about communication capabilities received from an access node. For APP-agent cooperative communications for multiple applications, an access node may include a master application agent to facilitate and coordinate communications to specific application agents that address APP-agent cooperative communications for specific applications. Similarly, a terminal node may use a master application and specific applications for APP-agent cooperative communications. | 06-27-2013 |

20100186020 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MULTITHREADED PROCESSING ACROSS MULTIPLE SERVERS - In one embodiment the present invention includes a computer implemented system and method of multithreaded processing on multiple servers. Jobs may be received in a jobs table for execution. Each of a plurality of servers may associate a thread for executing a particular job type. As a job is received in the job table, the associated thread on each server may access the jobs table and pick up the job if the job type for the job is associated with the thread. Jobs may include sequential and parallel tasks to be performed. Sequential job tasks may be performed by one associated thread on one server, while parallel job tasks may be performed by each associated thread on each server. In one embodiment, a metadata table is used to coordinate multithreaded processing across multiple servers. | 07-22-2010 |

20100262444 | RISK ANALYSIS SYSTEM AND METHOD - In one embodiment the present invention includes a computer-implemented method comprising retrieving user account data records from an external system. Each user account data record comprises actions a user is authorized to perform in the external system, and for each action, permissible data manipulation activities the user is capable of performing for a corresponding action. Risk analysis rules may be applied against the user account data records. Each risk analysis rule may include different function-based sub-rules. Each risk analysis rule may apply a different function-based sub-rule to each different action in a particular user account data record, and each function-based sub-rule may be verified based on a particular action and the permissible data manipulation activities associated with said particular action. The risk analysis rule is verified if all of the different function-based sub-rules for the different actions are verified. | 10-14-2010 |
