Patent
Method and apparatus to provide centralized call admission control and load balancing for a voice-over-IP network
TL;DR: In this paper, an admission control and load balancing system is proposed to control admission of packet streams or calls to a network and balance the packet traffic across the network, improving quality of service.
Patent
Distributed call admission and load balancing method and apparatus for packet networks
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus to control call admission to a packetbased network and achieve load balancing over a packet-based network includes at selected times generating and sending a path status message along a defined path, such as an MPLS path, through the network.
Patent
Frequency channel and time slot assignments in broadband access networks
David J. Houck,Wai Sum Lai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a system and method for assigning downstream and upstream communication pathways in broadband access networks, such as networks based on the hybrid fiber-coax architecture, is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
A network survivability model for critical national infrastructures
TL;DR: The life cycle of a disaster first is described first and then an approach for modeling information network disasters and their impact on other national infrastructures is presented, using a simulation engine that Bell Labs has developed.
Patent
Method and apparatus for management of voice-over IP communications
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for analyzing current voice call quality in an IP network before allowing a new voice call to enter therein is presented, where a parameter is calculated by the circuitry based on this information.
