63 results about "Emerging technologies" patented technology

Emerging technologies are technologies whose development, practical applications, or both are still largely unrealized, such that they are figuratively emerging into prominence from a background of nonexistence or obscurity. These technologies are new, such as various applications of biotechnology including gene therapy (which date to circa 1990 but even today have large undeveloped potential). Emerging technologies are often perceived as capable of changing the status quo.

Wide-area content-based routing architecture

Content networking is an emerging technology, where the requests for content accesses are steered by "content routers" that examine not only the destinations but also content descriptors such as URLs and cookies. In the current deployments of content networking, "content routing" is mostly confined to selecting the most appropriate back-end server in virtualized web server clusters. This invention presents a novel content-based routing architecture that is suitable for global content networking. In this content-based routing architecture, a virtual overlay network called the "virtual content network" is superimposed over the physical network. The content network contains content routers as the nodes and "pathways" as links. The content-based routers at the edge of the content network may be either a gateway to the client domain or a gateway to the server domain whereas the interior ones correspond to the content switches dedicated for steering content requests and replies. The pathways are virtual paths along the physical network that connect the corresponding content routers. The invention is based on tagging content requests at the ingress points. The tags are designed to incorporate several different attributes of the content in the routing process. The path chosen for routing the request is the optimal path and is chosen from multiple paths leading to the replicas of the content.

Loopback capability for bi-directional multi-protocol label switching traffic engineered trucks

A system and method for introducing a loopback capability for Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) bi-directional traffic trunks are discussed. MPLS is an emerging technology, which integrates Internet Protocol (IP) routing with label switching techniques. MPLS intends to provide new capabilities in the area of traffic engineering for IP networks. These traffic engineering capabilities will have to be combined with a set of complementary operation, administration and maintenance (OA&M) functions for effectively managing and operating MPLS-based networks. One such function is loopback. A loopback function provides the capability to transmit a OA&M packet on one or more segments of a bi-directional traffic trunk (BTT) in a MPLS network. Using a loopback function, parameters of a BTT, such as connectivity, delay and other Quality of Service (QoS) parameters, can be tested. The system and method provide different techniques for implementing loopback in an MPLS network.

Self-driving and autonomous vehicles are very popular these days for scientific, technological, social, and economical reasons. In one aspect of this technology, path prediction and target classifications are main pillars and enablers for safety and mobility applications. Accurate Estimation of the lane assignment of the remote vehicle with respect to the host vehicle lane results in the accurate threat assessment. V2X and C-V2X are emerging technology for safety applications, and they cover relatively long range. Long range means more room for error in path prediction / target classification. Therefore, here, we offer an efficient path prediction and target classification algorithm to enable these technologies performing safety and mobility applications. The method fuses target vehicles data and host vehicle data in an efficient algorithm to perform this task. Other variations are also presented here.

Fluid filter with open-end flow, replaceable cartridge

The present invention relates in general to a fluid filter incorporating a plastic shell and a replaceable fluid filter cartridge. More specifically, the present invention relates to configuring the shell so that it will only accept, in terms of proper functioning, a cooperatively-configured replaceable fluid filter cartridge. One of the emerging technologies in terms of fluid filter construction is the enlargement of the threaded connection interface between the molded plastic shell and the fluid-delivery head, accompanied by the elimination of the typical or traditional nutplate. In one embodiment of this design concept, the shell is molded out of plastic and the outer cylindrical surface of the shell adjacent the open end of the shell is externally threaded. This threaded surface of the shell is used to attach the shell, and in turn the fluid filter assembly, to the head. This style of shell is configured for use with a spin-on style of filtration system as part of a disposable fluid filter assembly. Some end users of the type of filtration systems described above enjoy the advantages gained from a replaceable fluid filter cartridge. Therefore, it would be an advance in the state of the art to configure the molded plastic shell, generally as described above, but configured to accept a replaceable fluid filter cartridge. Related to the acceptance of a replaceable cartridge is the inability of the shell to accept a spin-on style of filter as part of a disposable, single-use system. The fluid filter construction disclosed herein is directed to providing this capability by the design of a novel and unobvious fluid filter endplate with cooperative modifications to the upper exposed edge of the shell that defines the open end of the shell.
