TLDR
The architecture of a hybrid switching network employing both circuit switching and packet switching, and the concept of metapacket which can be employed in some relatively small-scale networks to average the load of packets and to reduce data transmission time is described.Abstract:
This paper describes the architecture of a hybrid switching network employing both circuit switching and packet switching. The network usually operates in a packet switching mode, but, depending on the traffic conditions, it can use special control packets to temporarily change certain lines to a circuit switching mode. The change between the two switching modes is performed dynamically depending on the traffic load of the network. Also described in this paper is the concept of metapacket which can be employed in some relatively small-scale networks to average the load of packets and to reduce data transmission time.read more

Patent
Method for Accessing Service Resource Items That are For Use in a Telecommunications System
TL;DR: In this paper, a mapping between telephone numbers and the URIs of associated service resource items is provided, which is used to retrieve the corresponding URI which is then used to access the desired service resource item.
Patent
Method for transmitting data in a telecommunications network and switch for implementing said method
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for optional data transmission from a first switch to a second switch via a telecommunications line or packeting as well as to a switch for implementing said method.
Patent
Method and apparatus for network telephony
TL;DR: In this article, a method for converting a public switched telephone network call to a data network call is presented. But the method is based on the assumption that the call is rejected and a call placed to a network service provider.
Patent
Secure Fallback Network Device
TL;DR: In this paper, a network device and a method may provide secure fallback operations, where the device includes a port allowing the device to communicate with a network and a processor to generate a security credential, provide the security credential to a call manager during initialization, and providing the security credentials to a secondary device during fallback operation.
Patent
Method and apparatus to provide cryptographic identity assertion for the PSTN
TL;DR: In this paper, an authentication scheme that allows a device to provide additional authentication of a Publicly Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) identity assertion made in a PSTN call by also sending an Internet Protocol (IP) communication is presented.
