TLDR
In this article, a high speed digital video network apparatus which utilizes the hashing function is implemented on a single integrated circuit chip, and includes a network protocol processing system interconnection, compression/decompression circuits, and encoder/decoder circuits.Abstract:
The port in a packet network switching system that a packet should be associated with is determined by retrieving packet address information for a packet that is to be transmitted. A predetermined number of bits from the packet address information is selected to use a hash key, which is used to compute a table address. The contents of the table at that address are compared with the packet address information. If it matches, the packet is transmitted over the port associated with that particular destination address. If it does not match, the table address is incremented by one, and the contents of the new table location identified by the incremented address are compared with the packet address information. A high speed digital video network apparatus which utilizes the hashing function is implemented on a single integrated circuit chip, and includes a network protocol processing system interconnection, compression/decompression circuits, and encoder/decoder circuits.read more

TL;DR: In this article, an intelligent automated assistant system engages with the user in an integrated, conversational manner using natural language dialog, and invokes external services when appropriate to obtain information or perform various actions.
Patent
Firewall providing enhanced network security and user transparency
Ralph Wesinger,Christopher Coley +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a firewall that achieves maximum network security and maximum user convenience by employing envoys that exhibit the security robustness of prior-art proxies and the transparency and ease-of-use of packet filters, combining the best of both worlds.
Patent
Using context information to facilitate processing of commands in a virtual assistant
TL;DR: In this article, a virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user, which helps to clarify the user's intent and reduce the number of candidate interpretations of user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input.

Network and intelligent cell for providing sensing bidirectional communications and control
TL;DR: In this article, a plurality of intelligent cells, each comprising an integrated circuit having a processor and input/output sections are coupled in a network, each of the programmable cells includes a unique identification number (ID) at the time it is manufactured.
Patent
Packet format in hub for packet data communications system
TL;DR: In this article, an address translation is performed to generate local source and destination addresses which are much shorter than the globally unique addresses contained in the packet as dictated by the protocol, and these local addresses are inserted in a header that is added to the packet.
