A method is presented for determining bandwidth allocations in a content distribution network that comprises multiple trees, where the root of each tree has a server that broadcasts multiple programs throughout the tree. Each network link has limited capacity and may be used by one or more of these trees. The allocation problem is formulated as an equitable resource allocation problem with a lexicographic maximin objective function that attempts to provide equitable service performance for all requested programs at the various nodes. The constraints include link capacity constraints and tree-like ordering constraints imposed on each of the programs. The algorithm provides an equitable solution in polynomial time for wide classes of performance functions. At each iteration, the algorithm solves single-link maximin optimization problems while relaxing the ordering constraints, selects a bottleneck link and fixes various variables at their optimal value.

A first node device transmits to a second node device unique identification information corresponding to specific common information, receives from the information saving node device the relevant information regarding the information saving node device, and requests to a selected information saving node device delivery of the specific common information, the second node device searches the node information and, in a case where there is node information, transfers the identification information to the information saving node device, which is indicated by node information, and the information saving node device, in a case where the transmission of the specific common information indicated by the identification information is available, transmits to the first node device the relevant information regarding the information saving node device, and, in a case where delivery request for the specific common information is received from the first node device, delivers specific common information.

A method for transmitting uplink data according to a dynamic resource request is disclosed. The method includes confirming, at a mobile station, whether a service type for a bandwidth request is sensitive to delay, if the service type is not sensitive to delay, shifting a phase of a fast feedback channel and transmitting the phase-shifted fast feedback channel, if the service type is sensitive to delay or if a bandwidth request grant message corresponding to the phase-shifted fast feedback channel is received from a base station, transmitting a bandwidth request information corresponding to the service type to the base station, and upon receiving an uplink grant message for an uplink resource according to the bandwidth request information from the base station, transmitting data though the uplink resource. As a result, collision does not occur during a resource request, quality of service (QoS) of a real-time traffic sensitive to delay can be satisfied, an uplink allocation request procedure is dynamically changed according to a service type, thus reducing message overhead, and a resource can be efficiently used according to a characteristic of a service provided to the mobile station.

A system and method for creating an on-demand virtual drive from dedicated storage on a plurality of partners in a peer-to-peer network using an agent installed on each of the partners. The agent has a contributing program and a requesting program. The contributing program creates a first storage unit and a second storage unit, formatting the second storage unit so that it is not visible to the operating system of the partner and transmitting the size of the second storage unit to the other partners. The requesting partner creates a virtual drive using space on selected partner's second drives, and directs data blocks in and out of the virtual drive. A rules engine incorporating RAID algorithms governs the selection of the partners and allocation of available space.

A bandwidth request procedure is performed in a wireless communication system by transmitting a bandwidth request indicator and a bandwidth request message through a bandwidth request channel; receiving an uplink grant message indicating uplink radio resource in response to the bandwidth request indicator and the bandwidth request message; and transmitting uplink data after receiving the uplink grant message, wherein the uplink grant message includes information regarding the type of the uplink grant message.

A method for transmitting a signal on a bandwidth request channel, a mobile station apparatus using the same, a method for performing a bandwidth request procedure in relation to a bandwidth request from a mobile station, and a base station apparatus using the same are disclosed. A mobile station transmits a bandwidth request preamble and a bandwidth request message together to a base station to request a bandwidth. A region of the bandwidth request message may be configured as null tones. In response to the bandwidth request of the mobile station, the base station transmits a BR ACK A-MAP IE indicating reception of the bandwidth request to the mobile station in response to the bandwidth request. The base station transmits an uplink grant to the mobile station by a BR ACK A-MAP IE or a CDMA allocation A-MAP IE. Upon receipt of the uplink grant from the base station, the mobile station transmits uplink scheduled data to the base station. However, if the base station fails to decode the quick access message or the region of the quick access message is filled with null tones, the base station transmits a grant for a bandwidth request header to the mobile station, instead of an uplink grant.

Method for performing the analysis of the characteristics of a data path from a first data processing device to a second data processing device through a network comprising at least an autonomous system consisting in defining a scenario file the scenario to be used, such a scenario including the actions to be used, building a parameter file defining the parameters to be used in the actions, running at least one analysis module based upon the actions of the scenario file and the parameters of the parameter file, the analysis module calling at least a predefined information requesting procedure, and storing in at least an output file the data resulting from the running of the analysis modules

A Relative Value Unit (RVU) monitoring method and system is disclosed that includes passively monitoring network traffic; examining the monitored traffic for recognized patterns in a matching database; deriving detected RVU values from the matching recognized patterns; and updating an RVU tracking database with the detected RVU values. The matching database stores a plurality of recognized patterns and RVU values, and associates the recognized patterns and RVU values. The method can also include notifying the user of detected CPT codes and RVU values. The method can also include determining procedures requested by received medical orders; tracking fulfillment of the requested procedures; and notifying the user when requested procedures remain to be fulfilled. The method can include analyzing data associated with detected patterns to determine if it's a new or previously observed procedure. The method can simultaneously run on multiple computers; and update a common RVU tracking database.

The invention relates to methods for improving a scheduling request transmission between a UE and a base station. The transmission of the scheduling request is postponed, by implementing a threshold that the data in the transmission buffer has to reach, before a transmission of the scheduling request is triggered. In one variant, the data in the transmission buffer needs to reach a specific amount, to trigger a scheduling request. The invention refers to further improvements: the PDDCH monitoring time window is delayed after sending a scheduling request; the dedicated scheduling request resources of the PUCCH are prioritized differently such that low-priority scheduling requests are transmitted less often.
