20140201308 | METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING WAN TRAFFIC - A local stream store of a local proxy caches one or more streams of data transmitted over the WAN to a remote proxy, where each stream is stored in a continuous manner and identified by a unique stream identifier (ID). In response to a flow of data received from a client, the local proxy examines the flow of data to determine whether at least a portion of the flow has been previously transmitted to the remote proxy via one of the streams currently stored in the local stream store. If the portion of the flow has been previously transmitted to the remote proxy, the local proxy transmits a first message to the remote proxy without sending actual content of the portion of the flow to indicate that the portion of the flow has been transmitted in one of the streams previously transmitted to the remote proxy. | 07-17-2014 |
20140201384 | METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING WAN TRAFFIC WITH EFFICIENT INDEXING SCHEME - According to one embodiment, a local proxy caches in a local stream store one or more streams of data transmitted over the WAN to a remote proxy. In response to a flow of data received from one of the clients of the local LAN, the local proxy chunks using a predetermined chunk algorithm the flow into chunks in sequence, and selectively indexes the chunks in a chunk index maintained by the local proxy based on locations of the chunks in the flow, where a number of chunks in a first region of the flow indexed is different than a number of chunks in a second region of the flow indexed. The chunk index includes multiple chunk index entries referenced to the steams stored in the stream store. | 07-17-2014 |
20140201385 | METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING WAN TRAFFIC WITH DEDUPLICATED STORAGE - A local proxy caches, in one or more transmitted data files (TDFs) in a deduplicated manner, chunks of one or more streams that have been transmitted to a remote proxy, each of the streams being identified by a stream identifier (ID). For each of the streams, the local proxy maintains a stream object having one or more TDF references, each TDF reference corresponding to at least a segment of the stream, wherein each TDF reference includes information identifying a file location within one of the TDFs at which the segment of the stream is located. The local proxy further maintains a chunk index having chunk index entries corresponding to deduplicated chunks of the streams, where each chunk index entry includes information identifying a stream location within one of the streams at which a corresponding chunk is located. | 07-17-2014 |

20090265882 | EASY ACCESS FILTER ASSEMBLY FOR A WET/DRY VACUUM APPLIANCE - Described herein are improved wet/dry vacuum appliance assemblies and associated systems which facilitate the ease of removal of the filter assembly from within the appliance itself. The vacuum appliance assemblies described include a drum, a lid assembly adapted to removably mount on or to hinge on the drum, and a filter assembly housed within the lid assembly, wherein the lid assembly comprises a removable component such that if the removable component is removed, the filter assembly is accessible. Also described herein are methods of removing such a filter assembly from a wet/dry vacuum appliance, wherein the method includes removing a component of the lid assembly of the wet/dry vacuum in order to make the filter assembly accessible, grasping a handle of a filter assembly housed within the lid assembly of the wet/dry vacuum appliance, rotating the filter assembly so as to disengage it from a sealing relationship with the lower portion of an interior region of the lid assembly, and then removing the filter assembly from the vacuum appliance by pulling generally in an upward direction. | 10-29-2009 |
