20080285571 | Media Data Processing Using Distinct Elements for Streaming and Control Processes - A hardware accelerated streaming arrangement, especially for RTP real time protocol streaming, directs data packets for one or more streams between sources and destinations, using addressing and handling criteria that are determined in part from control packets and are used to alter or supplement headers associated with the stream content packets. A programmed control processor responds to control packets in RTCP or RTSP format, whereby the handling or direction of RTP packets can be changed. The control processor stores data for the new addressing and handling criteria in a memory accessible to a hardware accelerator, arranged to store the criteria for multiple ongoing streams at the same time. When a content packet is received, its addressing and handling criteria are found in the memory and applied, by action of the network accelerator, without the need for computation by the control processor. The network accelerator operates repetitively to continue to apply the criteria to the packets for a given stream as the stream continues, and can operate as a high date rate pipeline. The processor can be programmed to revise the criteria in a versatile manner, including using extensive computation if necessary, because the processor is relieved of repetitive processing duties accomplished by the network accelerator. | 11-20-2008 |
20090077333 | DOUBLE DEGRADED ARRAY PROTECTION IN AN INTEGRATED NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE DEVICE - In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for accessing a physical storage-device array comprising a plurality of storage devices. The method includes (1) obtaining at least one parameter from a profile selected from two or more profiles concurrently defining two or more virtual arrays, each profile defining (i) a different virtual array associated with a corresponding set of storage devices and (ii) a parameter set of one or more parameters used for accessing the virtual array; and (2) generating an instruction, based on the at least one parameter, for accessing, or disallowing access to, information in the virtual array defined by the selected profile, wherein a parameter in each the parameter set defined by each profile indicates whether two or more storage devices in the corresponding virtual array are degraded. | 03-19-2009 |
20090147787 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RTP EGRESS STREAMING USING COMPLEMENTARY DIRECTING FILE - A hardware accelerated streaming arrangement, especially for RTP real time protocol streaming, employs a directing file determining the pointers, header lengths and offsets of a block of one or more data packets to be sent out through a network accelerated streaming system. The directing file is established by a control processor, for example working in the background, and is stored to provide information making it possible to determine certain information including header sizes and pointers to RTP payload and other data, without the need during egress of the data for analysis related to the type of media or protocol concerned. This relieves the control processor of functions that would otherwise require attention, and permits the egress process to proceed in a repetitive manner, preferably relying insofar as possible on hardware elements for speed and reserving the control processors computational capacity for control functions that may be more complex but are infrequent and/or not time sensitive for streaming in real time. | 06-11-2009 |

20130091237 | Aligned Data Storage for Network Attached Media Streaming Systems - Described embodiments provide a server for transferring data packets of streaming data sessions between devices. A redundant array of inexpensive disks (RAID) array having one or more stripe sector units (SSU) stores media files corresponding to the one or more data sessions. The RAID control module receives a request to perform the write operation to the RAID array beginning at a starting data storage address (DSA) and pads the data of the write operation if the amount of data is less than a full SSU of data, such that the padded data of the write operation is a full SSU of data. The RAID control module stores the full SSU of data beginning at a starting data storage address (DSA) that is aligned with a second SSU boundary, without performing a read-modify-write operation. | 04-11-2013 |
