TLDR
In this article, a load balancer that distributes packets across different transmission paths according to transmission path quality is introduced, along with a DNS proxy server that transparently creates a virtual private network in response to a domain name inquiry.Abstract:
A plurality of computer nodes communicate using seemingly random Internet Protocol source and destination addresses. Data packets matching criteria defined by a moving window of valid addresses are accepted for further processing, while those that do not meet the criteria are quickly rejected. Improvements to the basic design include (1) a load balancer that distributes packets across different transmission paths according to transmission path quality; (2) a DNS proxy server that transparently creates a virtual private network in response to a domain name inquiry; (3) a large-to-small link bandwidth management feature that prevents denial-of-service attacks at system chokepoints; (4) a traffic limiter that regulates incoming packets by limiting the rate at which a transmitter can be synchronized with a receiver; and (5) a signaling synchronizer that allows a large number of nodes to communicate with a central node by partitioning the communication function between two separate entities.read more

Antenna system having shielded structural configurations for assembly
Paul Shala Henry,Thomas M. Willis,Farhad Barzegar,Robert Bennett,Irwin Gerszberg,Donald J. Barnickel +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe an antenna array having a plurality of dielectric antennas and a plurality-of-dielectric cores, where at least one surface, excluding an aperture, of each antenna can be configured to reduce a transfer of signals between the plurality of antennas.
Patent
Dynamic, user-configurable virtual private network
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe how to manage communications between an origin and a destination using end-user and/or administrator configurable virtual private network(s) (VPN(s)).

Providing a Domain to IP Address Reputation Service
Paul Ashley,Carsten Hagemann +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a network address is received from a domain name service (DNS) based on a requested uniform resource locator (URL) that corresponds to a requested domain, and a set of one or more network addresses previously established as corresponding to the requested domain is retrieved from a data store accessible from the information handling system.
Patent
Data storage and retrieval
Gene Fein,Edward Merritt +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for data forwarding storage and retrieval in a network of interconnected computer system nodes may include directing data to a computer memory, continuously forwarding the data, from one computer memory to anther computer memory without storing on any physical storage device in the network, and retrieving the data in response to an activity.

The Bargaining Problem
TL;DR: In this paper, a new treatment is presented of a classical economic problem, one which occurs in many forms, as bargaining, bilateral monopoly, etc It may also be regarded as a nonzero-sum two-person game in which a few general assumptions are made concerning the behavior of a single individual and of a group of two individuals in certain economic environments.
An Architecture for Differentiated Service
TL;DR: An architecture for implementing scalable service differentiation in the Internet achieves scalability by aggregating traffic classification state which is conveyed by means of IP-layer packet marking using the DS field [DSFIELD].

TL;DR: The Hypertext Transfer Protocol is an application-level protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems, which can be used for many tasks beyond its use for hypertext through extension of its request methods, error codes and headers.
