| 20100284276 | End-System Dynamic Rate Limiting of Background Traffic - Dynamic rate limiting of background traffic to alleviate congestion in the access network is enabled. ICMP echo round-trip times and ICMP losses to a nearby node outside the local area and just beyond the divergence in end-to-end paths are measured, allowing unambiguous discrimination of nearby from distant congestion points. Using round-trip time samples, either short-run delay or short-run variance in delay can be measured to estimate congestion. When combined with an appropriate control law, background traffic can be rapidly reduced to allow interactive traffic to traverse unhindered through the access network. The described system and methods can be implemented in the application-layer and without any additional support from the network. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20110202679 | Classification and Verification of Static File Transfer Protocols - Classification and verification of static file transfer protocols is provided. A network node sitting in the path of packets classifies traffic according to its content, and then statistically verifies that the content actually matches the initial classification. Classification and verification are standard building blocks in networks systems that provide quality-of-service. However, unlike traditional quality-of-service building blocks, a system of the present invention takes a trust-but-verify approach, and thus can rely on longer-timescale statistical online or offline verification to reduce computational requirements. This improves scalability and reduces the cost and complexity that in part has prevented prior service differentiation systems from succeeding in the Internet. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) can combine the classification and verification building blocks with a networked directory service to allow further classification as to whether particular content is for pay. | 08-18-2011 |

| 20080307301 | Web Clip Using Anchoring - Methods, computer program products, systems and data structures for generating a signature for a portion or portions of a content source are described. The signature can be generated by identifying a portion or portions of a content source, and determining a signature that defines the portion or portions. If the source is updated, the signature can be retrieved and compared to elements in the updated source. If an element in the updated source matches information included in the signature, content corresponding to the matching element is displayed. | 12-11-2008 |

| 20110121763 | Linear Accelerators - We propose that during the factory testing of the linac, rather than simply confirming that the beam falls within the permissible ranges set out in the standard, the beam is in fact adjusted towards a standard signature. A new (or existing) linac could then be paired to a new linac, or to an existing linac, such as one that it is to operate alongside or one that it is to replace. Treatment plans would then be transferable between such pairs of linacs. In addition, the standard signature to which the linacs were approximated could be placed towards the centre of the permitted ranges, to produce linacs that were more reliable over the very long term. This requires a linac that has automatically adjustable parameters, so that a suitable programmed computer is able to monitor the output of the linac and adjust its operating parameters. We therefore provide a radiation source comprising a linear accelerator, beam control circuitry for the linear accelerator, an electronic control apparatus for the control circuitry arranged to adjust properties thereof, and a monitor for detecting properties of the radiation beam produced by the linear accelerator, wherein the control apparatus is adapted to retain a set of beam properties and periodically activate the accelerator, measure the current beam properties via the monitor, compare the measured beam properties to the retained beam properties, and potentially adjust the control circuitry properties to align the beam properties towards the retained beam properties. The beam properties that are measured may include at least one of beam flatness and beam width. The retained beam properties can be the properties of the beam produced by the linear accelerator when new, or the properties of a standard beam. The control apparatus is preferably arranged to send a message if the difference between the measured beam properties and the retained beam properties exceeds a threshold. It may also send a message to a remote location if the difference between the measured beam properties and the retained beam properties exceeds a second threshold. | 05-26-2011 |
