20080205388 | Discovery of network devices logically located between a client and a service - Otherwise network-transparent devices that are logically located between a client device and a service device are discovered by sending a probe packet that has a destination address of one of the client or service but that specifies a discovery network port such as a port of the transport layer. The otherwise network-transparent device receives the packet as it is traversing the hops between the client and service. The network-transparent device analyzes the network traffic passing through it to determine whether the destination port is the discovery network port and thereby recognizes the probe packet. The network-transparent device provides a return packet to the device that sent the probe packet, whereby the return packet provides the source address as the network address of the otherwise network-transparent device. A communication session may then be established between the network-transparent device and the device that sent the probe packet such as to provide a service to the data transfer occurring between the client and service. | 08-28-2008 |

The original contiguous data packets including headers and payload may be reconstructed at the receiving packet compression device by matching the headers to the corresponding payloads. The reconstructed data packets are injected back into the single communication session, and the presence of the original headers in the reconstructed data packets may thereby maintain the endpoint-to-endpoint authentication protocols. | 10-30-2008 |

The DNA molecules are useful for specifying a gene product in cells, either as a promoter or as a protein coding sequence or as an UTR or as a 3′ termination sequence, and are also useful in controlling the behavior of a gene in the chromosome, in controlling the expression of a gene or as tools for genetic mapping, recognizing or isolating identical or related DNA fragments, or identification of a particular individual organism, or for clustering of a group of organisms with a common trait. One of ordinary skill in the art, having this data, can obtain cloned DNA fragments, synthetic DNA fragments or polypeptides constituting desired sequences by recombinant methodology known in the art or described herein | 10-22-2009 |
