A method for transmitting burst allocation information by a base station in a broadband wireless communication system in which a transmitted frame includes symbols, and orthogonal subcarriers in a frequency axis constitute each of the symbols based on a predetermined time unit. The method includes the steps of generating a reduced connection identifier (CID) by reducing a basic CID of a mobile terminal connected to the base station when the basic CID exists within a preset range, and inserting an MAP, which includes an enabled field representing the reduced CID and one of use and non-use of the reduced CID, into the frame, and transmitting the frame to the mobile terminal.

System throughput is improved by decreasing the system overhead by reducing the size of control packets and data packet headers. A connection identifier (CID) is divided into a CID part 1 carried on a MAP IE and a CID part 2 carried on the generic MAC-PDU headers of one or more MAC PDUs. Versions of RCID-IE( ) in MAP messages may used to represent CID part 1. The generic MAX PDU headers (GMH) may vary according to the length of CID part 1, and multiple GMHs in a PHY burst may have different CID parts 2. In addition, the type header field of the GMH may be shortened or removed. Alternatively, a modified GMH may have an extended type sub-header field. In addition, the GMH may use a shorter connection index or a connection index mask instead of a CID.

The reference data may include, for groups of one or more blocks, a first value identifying the oldest volume in which the group of blocks was allocated and a second value identifying the newest volume in which the group of blocks was allocated. The volumes may include one or more snapshots.

A communications system operator provides to each user of a multi-user communications system a committed information rate (CIR). When a user requests bandwidth for transmission, a system controller queues the user in a high-priority subclass A. The system controller allocates bandwidth to the user at the head of the queue as requested but if the user's bandwidth, measured as an average over a sampling time, exceeds its CIR, it is moved into a low-priority subclass B. The user can then only obtain further bandwidth after other users in the high-priority subclass have been allocated bandwidth up to their CIRs. If a user in the low-priority subclass only receives allocation of a small amount of bandwidth, so that its average inforamtion rate falls below its CIR, it is moved back in to the queue in the high-priority subclass.

Low resource internet devices such as consumer electronics products connect to web service by means of a proxy method where the connected device does not need to maintain the expensive and fragile web service interface itself, but rather uses simple low level protocols to communicate through a gateway that executes software to translate a low level proprietary wireless protocol to a proprietary low level internet protocol that can pass through a firewall to proxy servers that translate the low level protocols thus presenting an interface that makes the internet device appear to have a full web service interface to enable communication between the internet devices and the web server.

An apparatus for and method of enhancing reliability within a cluster lock processing system having a relatively large number of commodity cluster instruction processors which are managed by a cluster lock manager. Because the commodity processors have virtually no system viability features such as memory protection, failure recovery, etc., the cluster / lock processors assume the responsibility for providing these functions. The low cost of the commodity cluster instruction processors makes the system almost linearly scalable. The cluster / locking, caching, and mass storage accessing functions are fully integrated into a single hardware platform which performs the role of the cluster / lock master. Upon failure of this hardware platform, a second redundant hardware platform converts from slave to master role. The logic for the failure detection and role swapping is placed within software, which can run as an application under a commonly available operating system. Furthermore, the recovery is completely accomplished without assistance of the Host computer(s) or ultimate user(s) coupled via the Host computer(s). Following repair of the failed server, it is restarted in an orderly fashion to resume a slave role. For the server to be completely restored, coherent memory must be copied from master to slave. Because cluster lock processing must be paused throughout the system to transfer the copy, it is important to minimize the transfer time to minimize the impact on system throughput.
