Method, system, and apparatus for transferring P2P file distribution tasks between devices

Transferring peer-to-peer (P2P) file distribution tasks involve beginning a file transfer session at a first apparatus via an Internet-based, peer-to-peer, distributed file transfer network. A local connection between the first apparatus and a second apparatus is established via a local network while the file transfer session is ongoing. Data describing remaining tasks of the ongoing file transfer session is transferred to the second apparatus via the local connection. The file transfer session is assumed by the second apparatus via the file transfer network, and the first apparatus then discontinues further tasks related to the file transfer session.

One-way Isolator For High Torque Devices

A one way isolator for high torque devices, such as alternator-starters, driven by a flexible drive means includes a hub and a sheave each of which includes at least one stop member. The hub and sheave are linked by a isolating spring and, via a bearing and / or bushing, can rotate with respect to each other to provide isolation, through the spring, from torque variations when torque is transferred from the flexible drive means to the device. When substantial amounts of torque are transferred from the device to the flexible drive means, the sheave rotates with respect to the hub to bring the stop members into contact such that the isolator then acts like a solid pulley to facilitate the transfer of the torque from the device.

Systems and methods for data upload and download

Systems and methods which provide a hybrid network based solution for digital data file backup are shown. Embodiments utilize a transport mass storage system to provide transmission of digital data files between user equipment and a network based mass storage system. The transport mass storage system for physically transporting digital data files may be used in combination with other techniques for communicating digital data files, such as transmission of digital data files through a network link. A manifest and / or other information may be used to manage transporting, storage, and / or synchronization of digital data files. User equipment may then access the digital data files stored to the network mass storage system for various purposes using a network link.

Method and apparatus for transporting parcels of data using network elements with network element storage

A network element with network element storage and independent intelligence may be configured to provide temporary mass storage to facilitate the transfer of large files across an optical network. The network element may also be provided with intelligence to enable the network element to maintain a higher level understanding of the data flows. Using network element storage enables network elements involved in data transmission across the network to temporarily store data being transferred on the network. This allows parcels of data to be transmitted part way through the network when a complete path through the network is not available. It also allows data to be aggregated at strategic locations on the network, such as at the location of a transmission bandwidth mismatch, to enable the data to be transmitted over the high capacity optical resource at a higher rate, thus more efficiently utilizing the bandwidth on the higher bandwidth resource.
