20090003353 | Cross-layer approach to virtualized overlay on ad hoc networks - Methods and apparatus to a cross-layer approach to virtualized overlay on ad hoc networks are described. In one embodiment, a virtual address may be used to search for a (key,value) pair in a virtual overlay. Other embodiments are also described. | 01-01-2009 |
20090150568 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SYNCHRONIZING BETWEEN A CENTRALIZED SYSTEM AND A DECENTRALIZED SYSTEM - Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system for synchronizing between a decentralized computing system and a centralized computing system. In some embodiments, a decentralized record may be received from a computing platform, wherein the decentralized record may be created when the computing platform communicates in a decentralized pattern. Information may be detected from the decentralized record to provide detected information, wherein the detected information may reveal a decentralization characteristic of the decentralized record. Then, the decentralized record may be converted into a centralized record while hiding the detected information from the centralized record and the centralized record may be sent to a server. | 06-11-2009 |
20110154073 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT LOAD BALANCING AT SERVER CLUSTERS - Methods and systems to balance the load among a set of processing units, such as servers, in a manner that allows the servers periods of low power consumption. This allows energy efficient operation of the set of processing units. Moreover, the process is adaptable to variations in systemic response times, so that systemic response times may be improved when operational conditions so dictate. | 06-23-2011 |

20140269301 | NETWORK CONGESTION MANAGEMENT - Technologies for managing congestion of a communication channel includes a network device for receiving a network packet from a computing device destined for another computing device, analyzing network traffic flows over a communication channel established between the network device and an upstream network device, and determining whether the communication channel is congested as a function of the network traffic flows. Such technologies may also include storing the received packet in a local storage in response to determining that the communication channel is congested, transmitting an acknowledgement packet to the computing device in response to storing the received network packet local storage, and transmitting the stored network packet to the upstream network device in response to determining that the communication channel is no longer congested. | 09-18-2014 |
20140301199 | METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROCESSING A PACKET - A system for processing a packet may include, for each of a network interface controller and a central processing unit, a measurement of the processing time, a determination of the amount of energy consumed to process a unit of information in the packet, and a measurement of the load. A user may provide the system with signals to perform networking processes for the packet in a manner to reduce the processing time of the system or in a manner to reduce the amount of energy consumed by the system for processing the packet. A portion of the system may receive at least one of the measurements, determinations, and signals and may cause one of the network interface controller and the central processing unit to perform networking processes for the packet. The networking processes may include establishing a connection to a network. | 10-09-2014 |
20140365797 | MINIMIZING POWER CONSUMPTION IN A NETWORK DEVICE - A network interface device (NID) may determine whether the received data units of the computer system are to be compressed before transmitting the data units. The NID may determine the compression energy value consumed to compress the first K1 data units and a second transmission energy value to transmit the compressed first K1 data units. The NID may then estimate a first transmission energy value that may be consumed by the NID to transmit uncompressed first K1 data units using the second transmission energy value. The NID may then use the first and second transmission energy value and the compression energy value to determine if the remaining (N−K1) data units of the first data stream. | 12-11-2014 |
