TLDR
In this article, a cumulative buffer is defined for an interference domain in a wireless mesh network and distributed among nodes in the network to maintain or improve capacity utilization of network resources in the interference domain without increasing packet queuing delay times.
Abstract
A cumulative buffer may be defined for an interference domain in a wireless mesh network and distributed among nodes in the network to maintain or improve capacity utilization of network resources in the interference domain without increasing packet queuing delay times. When an interference domain having communications links sharing resources in a network is identified, a cumulative buffer size is calculated. The cumulative buffer may be distributed among buffers in each node of the interference domain according to a simple division or according to a cost function taking into account a distance of the communications link from the source and destination. The network may be monitored and the cumulative buffer size recalculated and redistributed when the network conditions change.

Distributed path update in hybrid networks

TL;DR: In this article, a path update may occur in response to a change in network topology or a traffic loading condition (e.g., congestion or saturation of a link in the current path).

Distributed path selection in hybrid networks

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid device may select a next hop for a packet stream based upon a path selection, which includes calculating end-to-end path capacity for candidate paths to a destination device.

Storing modem parameters for motion detection

TL;DR: In this paper, the stored modem parameters represent a radio state previously used by a radio subsystem of the wireless sensor device in processing a first motion detection signal, and motion is detected based on the first and second motion detection signals.

Sizing router buffers

TL;DR: It is shown that a link with n flows requires no more than B = (overlineRTT x C) √n, for long-lived or short-lived TCP flows, because of the large number of flows multiplexed together on a single backbone link.

Bufferbloat: Dark Buffers in the Internet

TL;DR: The existence of excessively large (bloated) buffers in systems, particularly network communication systems, has been identified as a major cause of network latency problems as discussed by the authors, which is referred to as bufferbloat.
