Private Multimedia Network (PMN) complements, and is an improved alternative to digital videoconferencing and multimedia delivery systems. PMN's desktop and meeting room delivery system is designed to support the exponential growth of enterprise team-based initiatives. PMN provides “one-stop-shopping” for the full multimedia rubric. It delivers user-friendly control and cost/effective TV and broadcast quality videoconferencing and other multimedia services to organizations with “critical mass” campuses and building complexes. Though digital systems dominate the videoconferencing marketplace, PMN's hybrid digital/analog architecture has no digital peer in breadth or quality of service within or between campuses. The novel architecture leverages advances in analog video short-haul technology, digital long-haul technology, and telephony audio and control technology to deliver four-level multimedia services: 1) premise; 2) campus; 3) multi-site; and 4) ubiquitous (any site with ITU compatible multimedia equipment (e.g., videoconferencing) and communication links). On balance, the price/performance afforded by PMN's centralized Telco-based control and audio delivery combined with its decentralized broadcast quality video distribution raise videoconferencing and other multimedia services to a new level of ubiquity. Just as telephones and PC LANs, PMN delivers expensive Boardroom and mobile cart videoconferencing capabilities to every desktop via existing multimedia wall plates. The key phases for this invention are: Lip-synchronization across differing network communication links and protocols; Ubiquitous multimedia service; Cost/effective room and desktop deployment; Telco control and audio; Broadcast quality video; Isochronous Quality; Centralized control and distributed operation; and Interoperable architecture.

Via real time online bandwidth measurement, this method confirms the threshold value ssthresh. When the congestion window (CW) is less than a half of the threshold, the rule of exponent gain is followed. Otherwise CW gains each time a value of a half of difference of the threshold and CW (ssthresh-cwnd) to approach gradually the threshold. Until the difference is less than the regulation factor phi (ssthresh/2>= phi >=2). Then CW is set as the threshold value to enter the stage of avoiding congestion. This invention can reduce the happening of loss of several texts in a window at the slowly start stage, reduce the package loss rate and raise the net transferring ability.

A process for reducing the resources employed in real time to communicate a message between related nodes that are separated by multiple degrees of separation in a social network. At least a portion of the shortest path for the multiple degrees of separation between at least two related nodes in a social network is determined out of band prior to the initiation of a process to communicate between the related nodes. By pre-processing at least a portion of the degrees of separation for the shortest path between the nodes, the actual resources employed in real time to calculate the entire shortest path can be reduced. Typically, approximately fifty percent or more of the shortest paths for the degrees of separation between related nodes in the social network are pre-processed. Since the amount of resources for determining the shortest path for each degree of separation can exponentially increase with each degree, the pre-processing of a portion of the degrees of separation along a shortest path can significantly reduce the resources required in real time to complete the determination of the shortest path. Also, if a common intermediate node is identified in the pre-processing of the shortest paths for two nodes in the social network, the intermediate shortest paths can be stored for reuse as a complete shortest path between these two nodes,

This invention is a method about frequency multiplex. We employ numbers of sub-carriers whose frequency spectrum are overlapped each other to modulate the transmitted data sequences, and then we get the complex modulated signals. In the receiver point, we make use of one mapping between the overlapped signals' spectrum and the transmitted data sequences to detect the transmitted data sequences. By overlapping the adjacent sun-carriers, this invention can greatly increase the spectrum efficiency, and the more the multiplicity, the higher the spectrum efficiency.

Furthermore, when the spectrum efficiency increases, the needed number of signal levels for this invention will not have exponential growth, just linear growth in stead, so the requirement for system linearity can be decreased greatly.
