Method for caching and delivery of compressed content in a content delivery network
TL;DR: In this paper, a content delivery network (CDN) edge server is provisioned to provide last mile acceleration of content to requesting end users, and a preferred compression routine is gzip, as most end user browsers support the capability to decompress files that are received in this format.
Patent
Hybrid content delivery network (cdn) and peer-to-peer (p2p) network
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a hybrid approach, where CDN customer content may be delivered from the CDN edge network, from the P2P network, or from both networks.
Patent
Reliable, high-throughput, high-performance transport and routing mechanism for arbitrary data flows
TL;DR: In this article, the authors leveraged an existing content delivery network infrastructure to provide a system that enhances performance for any application that uses the Internet Protocol (IP) as its underlying transport mechanism.
Patent
Method and system for protecting web sites from public internet threats
TL;DR: In this paper, the origin server is "shielded" from the publicly-routable IP address space, and only given machines acting as clients can access it, and then only under restricted, secure circumstances.
Patent
Method of data collection among participating content providers in a distributed network
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a data system to collect information on atomically identifiable web clients (called "user agents") via cookies, although one or more passive techniques may be used.
