The disclosed embodiments disclose techniques for synchronizing file updates between two cloud controllers of a distributed filesystem. Two or more cloud controllers collectively manage distributed filesystem data that is stored in the cloud storage systems; the cloud controllers ensure data consistency for the stored data, and each cloud controller caches portions of the distributed filesystem. During operation, a cloud controller receives a request from a client to access a file in the distributed filesystem. The cloud controller sends a synchronization update request for the file to a second cloud controller and in response receives a synchronization update for the file from the second cloud controller.

A method and an apparatus are provided that transmit and receive a random access preamble in a wireless communication system. A plurality of random access parameters having different values in accordance with a plurality of events for triggering random access are set. When one of the plurality of events for triggering random access has occurred, random access is performed according to at least one of the plurality of random access parameters corresponding to the event. Therefore, the time delay of random access can be reduced.

Improved capabilities are described for increasing the bandwidth in a wireless communication network, such as where local optimization servers and centralized optimization servers are connected to a communication network, and wherein at least one wireless RF access node comprises a scheduler for providing uplink and downlink air interface access to the plurality of mobile devices that access the at least one wireless RF access node. The local optimization server may include an application priority service that interfaces with the scheduler to convey to the scheduler an air interface data rate priority value that is assigned to a first mobile device, wherein the scheduler provides uplink and downlink air interface access to the first mobile device based at least in part on the air interface data rate priority value. A topic carried in each data packet that traverses a publish-subscribe broker network may be used by first and the second publish-subscribe broker communication facilities to determine how to route each data packet, and the topic may also be used to identify the application associated with the data packet and to determine the data rate priority value corresponding to the identified application.

Techniques are provided for detecting and evaluating ventricular dyssynchrony based on morphological features of the T-wave and for controlling therapy in response thereto. For example, the number of peaks in the T-wave, the area under the peaks, the number of points of inflection, and the slope of the T-wave can be used to detect ventricular dyssynchrony and evaluate its severity. As ventricular dyssynchrony often arises due to heart failure, the degree of dyssynchrony may also be used as a proxy for tracking the progression of heart failure. Pacing therapy is automatically and adaptively adjusted based on the degree of ventricular dyssynchrony so as to reduce the dyssynchrony and thereby improve cardiac function.

Disclosed is a method for setting up a route path between a source node and a destination node through route discovery in a mobile ad hoc network. The source node transmits a RREQ message to the destination node, and the destination node transmits a RREP message to the source node in response to the RREQ. A first intermediate node having failed to transmit the original RREP stores the original RREP, generates a PRREQ message, and transmits the generated PRREQ to neighbor intermediate nodes. If an ID of the PRREQ and an original IP address included in the received PRREQ are identical to an ID and an original IP address of the RREQ received from the source node, a second intermediate node receiving the PRREQ generates a PRREP message corresponding to the PRREQ and transmits the PRREP to the first intermediate node. If a partial route path is set up between the first intermediate node and the second intermediate node as the first intermediate node receives the PRREP, the first intermediate node transmits the original RREP via the partial route path. Then the source node receives the original RREP, and completes setup of the route path.

The method includes: receiving multicast program request message from terminal device, inquiring about program rating parameters according to said multicast program request message, wherein the program rating parameter includes multicast group IP address and multicast program rated priority, generating multicast program data according to the program rating parameters, sending the multicast program data to the terminal device.

In embodiments of the present disclosure improved capabilities are described for increasing the bandwidth in a large area broadband LTE wireless network, where regional optimization servers are incorporated near the wireless network in association with the public data network gateway, thus reducing the time-latency for applications being run from a mobile cellular device. Further, by associating additional optimization servers at base stations, application functionality may be optionally transferred from the regional optimization server to the local base station optimization server in instances where a number of mobile cellular devices are requesting the same data via their access through the same cell, and in other instances, to the effect that back haul network bandwidth utilization is reduced or eliminated.

The present invention concerns a method of processing traffic data in Layer 2 of a wireless communications system, whereby the MAC layer is arranged, after receipt of a traffic data volume report from the RLC layer, to process said data volume report and to then issue an acknowledgement message to the RLC layer. The method ensures that the RLC and MAC layers are synchronised with respect to traffic data processing. The MAC layer may be arranged to issue an acknowledgement to the RLC layer only where it determines from processing a data volume report that the RLC layer is not permitted to transmit data in a next or subsequent corresponding TTI. The present invention also concerns a process for data discard in a Radio Link Control (RLC) layer of a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) wireless communications system such as a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). The process involves, responsive to the triggering of a data discard operation, determining whether the RLC layer is permitted to transmit data. Where it is determined that the RLC layer is not permitted to transmit data in a next or subsequent TTI, the method includes the step of informing the RLC layer that data is not required.

The present invention relates to a preamble allocation method and a random access method in a mobile communication system. In the present invention, one among preamble resources is allocated to specific mobile stations in advance, before random access. The mobile stations request random access by transmitting a preamble based on the pre-allocated preamble resource to a base station. It is therefore possible to prevent collision caused by the fact that other mobile stations transmit the same preamble.
