Processing of packet data in a communication system

TLDR
In this article, the authors present a protocol for processing packet data in a communication system supporting at least packet data transfer, where data transmission resources for a communications device are limited in response to determining anomalous behaviour of the source, and transmission of packet data for the communications device is provided using limited transmission resources.
Abstract
Processing of packet data in a communication system supporting at least packet data transfer involves the following. Packet data is received from a source. It is determined, based on the received packet data, whether there is anomalous behaviour of the packet data source. Data transmission resources for a communications device are limited in response to determining anomalous behaviour of the source, and transmission of packet data for the communications device is provided using the limited transmission resources. The communications device is either the source or a destination of at least part of the packet data received from the source. In the communication system, access to a set of services from the communications device may furthermore be blocked.

Methods and apparatus for applying user corrections to medical fact extraction

TL;DR: In this article, a correction to the first set of medical facts may be received from a user and the correction may identify a fact that should be associated with the first portion of the text.
Patent

Physician and clinical documentation specialist workflow integration

TL;DR: In this article, a medical documentation system and a CDI system may be linked together, or integrated, so there is a tie between the two systems that allows for a much more efficient and effective CDI process.

Categorization of information using natural language processing and predefined templates

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer implemented method for generating a report that includes latent information, comprising receiving an input data stream that includes Latent Information, performing one of normalization, validation, and extraction of the input data streams, processing the inputs data stream to identify latent information within the data stream, and processing the template-specified data to generate a report.

Transcription data extraction

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer program product, for performing data determination from medical record transcriptions, resides on a computerreadable medium and includes computer-readable instructions for causing a computer to obtain a medical transcription of a dictation, the dictation being from medical personnel and concerning a patient.
Patent

Transcription data security

TL;DR: In this paper, a computer program product for use with dictated medical patient information resides on a computer-readable medium and comprises computerreadable instructions for causing a computer to analyze the dictated information, identify likely confidential information in the dictated medical patients information, and treat the confidential information disparately from likely non-confidential information.

System and method for internal network data traffic control

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present systems and methods which implement network data traffic identification and analysis at a low level in the network to thereby filter and/or prevent undesired data communication sourced therein.

Weighted fair queuing-based methods and apparatus for protecting against overload conditions on nodes of a distributed network

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose an improved network device for protecting against overload conditions on a network, e.g. of the type caused by DDoS attacks, which has a scheduler and a token bucket mechanism.
Patent

Protecting against malicious traffic

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for screening packet-based communication traffic is proposed, where at least a first data parcket, sent over a network (40) from a source address to a destination address, is received and a determination is made, by analyzing the first data packet, that the first packet was generated by a worm.

Isolation and remediation of a communication device

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for isolating and remediating a communication device is presented, where the communication network receives a call from the communication device (204), determines whether a characteristic of the call is undesirable (206), terminates the call (214), disables the communication devices from initiating a new call (216), and de-registering the device (218).

Method and apparatus for protecting Internet-connected sites from denial-of-service attacks

TL;DR: Server Profile Enforcement (SPE) as mentioned in this paper is a technique that automatically detects DDoS attacks from attackers that send packets to the subscribing server from that ISP using connections or having packet characteristics that do not conform to the acceptable characteristics specified in the profile.
