20090222573 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLICATION LAYER RESOURCE TRAFFIC CONTROL - Methods and systems are presented for controlling application layer message traffic at a central web services resource in which a web services gateway associated with the central resource sends a backoff message to a gateway associated with a remote web service client, which in turn slows the application layer message traffic to the central resource. | 09-03-2009 |
20120311146 | SERVICE-CENTRIC COMMUNICATION NETWORK MONITORING - Service-centric communication network monitoring apparatus and methods are provided. Service traffic, associated with a third-party service provided by an external service provider that is controlled independently of a communication network, is identified in communication traffic that is being transferred through that communication network. The identified service traffic is monitored, for example, to compile service usage statistics, to police usage of the service, to generate billing records for usage of the service, and/or to mirror the identified service traffic. A registry in which the service is registered may interact with a monitoring system of the communication network so as to establish monitoring for the service traffic. | 12-06-2012 |
