| 20100014540 | Method for managing data transmission according to a quality of service in a network assembly and a computer network system - The invention relates to a new type of quality of service architecture for a network assembly and a corresponding computer network system. The Internet technology as approved by the IETF organization has defined different services. One is the integrated services (IntServ) and the other the differentiated services (DiffServ) architecture. Another is the RSVP Protocol according to which Quality of Service can be implemented with accuracy and richer functionality. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100135332 | METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING A CLOCK OF A NETWORK COMPONENT WITH A CLOCK OF FURTHER NETWORK COMPONENT AND NETWORK COMPONENT THEFOR - The invention relates to a method for synchronizing a clock of a network component with a clock of a further network component communicatively connected to the network component in a network and a network component, whereby the method comprises the following steps: determining a set of forward transition delays for transmission of messages from the network component to the further network component and a set of corresponding backward transition delays for transmission of messages from the further network component to the network component, selecting a minimum forward transition delay from the set of forward transition delays, selecting a minimum backward transition delay from the set of backward transition delays, deriving an estimated value for an offset between the clock of the network component and the clock of the further network component from the selected minimum forward transition delay and minimum backward transition delay, and adjusting the clock of the network component in accordance with the estimated value for the offset estimate. | 06-03-2010 |

| 20110096849 | OPTIMIZED SELECTION OF TRANSMISSION PROTOCOL RESPECTING THRESHOLDS - In the method for management of data transmissions in a network, switching means are provided, by means of which a change can be carried out between a first data transmission type and a second data transmission type, as alternative data transmission types between a transmitter and a receiver. The change is carried out on the basis of at least one respectively predetermined criterion. The first data transmission type corresponds to a transport protocol based on rate-based overload control. The second data transmission type corresponds to a transport protocol based on RTT-based overload control. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110099178 | Method for providing a table of station-specific information in a network of distributed stations, and network station for carrying out the method - After every bus reset operation in an IEEE 1394 network, the network is reconfigured. This involves a table with further station-specific information being created after the bus initialization phase, the tree structure identification phase and the self identification phase. This is done by making requests to the individual network stations. Each network station returns its station-specific information to the requesting network station. It has become apparent that in some cases a response from the network station to which a request has been sent is returned only after the request has been repeated a plurality of times or in the extreme case even not at all. So as not to delay the creation of the network node information table unnecessarily for such cases, the invention proposes creating the table in two phases. In the first phase, all that information which has been received up to a time determined by a first abort criterion is sorted into the table. Next, the still incomplete table is enabled for use by an application program in the requesting network station. In the second phase, the still missing station-specific information is then requested again and is sorted into the table when it is delivered by the stations to which requests have been sent. After a time determined by a second abort criterion, the further request for the still missing station-specific information is terminated and the table is closed in this state and is provided for use by the application software. | 04-28-2011 |
