US Classification:

709219, 709227, 709230, 370389

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for defining content distribution paths in a content distribution network integrate unicast and multicast connections. Content engines in the content distributed network are organized into channels with a master content engine maintaining specific content. The content distribution network is further organized into a distribution hierarchy based on network topology and channel definitions, first by establishing unicast paths through the content distributed network and then by integrating multicast paths into the unicast hierarchy. The further organization of the content distribution network establishes distribution trees from the channel masters to the network edges.

International Classification:

H04L 12/28

US Classification:

370390, 370473

Abstract:

A system for reliable multicast distribution includes a primary content engine and a backup content engine sender. The primary content engine sender sends out a multicast message of content to selected content engine receivers. The sender waits for negative acknowledgments from the selected content engine receivers declaring that content was not received. If a negative acknowledgment is received, the sender resends the multicast message a predetermined number of times. If the content is still not received after the number of multicast passes is exhausted, the sender sends out unicast messages to those receivers still requesting content. If the primary sender does not respond to a negative acknowledgment, the receiver sends a second negative acknowledgment to the backup multicast sender. The backup responds with the data requested in the negative acknowledgment and so is able to begin data distribution at the point where the primary sender left off without maintaining synchronicity with the primary sender.

Assignee:

Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA

International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

707626, 707637

Abstract:

A system for providing a dynamic portal page in a content distributed network responds to a client request by generating the dynamic portal page at a content engine. The content engine has a portal template with at least one dynamic portion. The content engine writes into the at least one dynamic portion of the portal template links to content cached at the content engine. The content engine also writes into the at least one dynamic portion of the portal template information about availability of content not yet cached at the content engine.

Abstract:

A data redundancy elimination system. In particular implementations, a method includes storing in a memory one or more aggregation trees, each aggregation tree comprising one or more base chunk nodes and one or more super chunk nodes, wherein each base chunk node comprises a chunk signature and corresponding raw data, and wherein super chunk nodes correspond to child base chunk nodes and include a chunk signature; receiving a data block; dividing the data block into a plurality of base chunks, each base chunk having a degree value characterizing the occurrence probability of the base chunk; computing chunk signatures for the plurality of base chunks; applying a super chunk rule to contiguous sequences of base chunks of the plurality of base chunks to create one or more aggregation trees, wherein the super chunk rule aggregates base chunks based on the respective occurrence probabilities of the base chunks; identifying one or more nodes in the one or more created aggregation trees that match corresponding nodes of the aggregation trees in the memory; compressing the received data block based on the identified nodes; and conditionally adding the one or more created aggregation trees to the memory.

US Classification:

252500, 528422, 427 58

Abstract:

A new method for forming stable polyaniline nanofiber colloids uses electrostatic repulsion to maintain dispersion of the nanofibers and prevent aggregation during synthesis of the nanofibers. The colloidal suspensions are formed directly from the reactants in solution maintained at a pH of about 1. 0 to about 4. 0 and a temperature of about 10 C. to about 100 C. with minimal or no stirring. Also set forth are new methods for forming ultrathin films of polyaniline nanofibers via self-assembly.
