34 results about "Multipath routing" patented technology

Multipath routing is the routing technique of using multiple alternative paths through a network, which can yield a variety of benefits such as fault tolerance, increased bandwidth, or improved security. The multiple paths computed might be overlapped, edge-disjointed or node-disjointed with each other. Extensive research has been done on multipath routing techniques, but multipath routing is not yet widely deployed in practice.

AI-Optimized Memory Fabric for Large Contexts and Multimodal Workloads

A coherent, intelligent, packet-switched memory fabric enables predictive, cache-coherent access across distributed compute, accelerator, and memory resources using a Memory-Fabric Transaction Layer Protocol (MF-TLP). MF-TLP defines routable packet formats for read, write, vectorized, atomic, reduction, collective, and predictive-prefetch transactions executed by memory-centric network interface controllers (MC-NICs). Each MC-NIC performs packet parsing, address translation, coherence management, and near-memory arithmetic or tensor operations while coordinating with MF-TLP-aware switches providing hierarchical directory control, multi-path routing, and in-network aggregation. Vectorized and multimodal packets encode multiple addresses or tensor offsets to reduce scatter / gather overhead, and programmable caching and quality-of-service modules manage tiered memory and tenant fairness. MF-TLP supports extension headers for predictive prefetch, collective coordination, and tenant governance, operating across hierarchical leaf-spine topologies using Ultra-Ethernet Transport, InfiniBand, or CXL fabrics. The system delivers scalable, low-latency, memory-centric orchestration for large-language-model training, multimodal AI, and data-intensive analytics.

Enhancing network resiliency and performance through multipath routing with metasurface-integrated portable transcoder

The technology described herein is directed towards a transcoder device (node) that leverages multipath routing techniques using both terrestrial and satellite links simultaneously. The transcoder device implements the multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) along with metasurfaces, such as to support satellite, ethernet, Wi-Fi, and new radio (e.g., 5G) interfaces. The transcoder can decode and reencode data packets at the packet level to facilitate communication between user equipment (UEs) and existing Satcom satellites. A metasurface redirects signals from the satellite to a satellite radio frequency (RF) interface of the transcoder, with the transcoder also coupled by a UE RF interface to a UE, such as a computing device or cellphone. For direct-to-device communications, transcoder conversion is bypassed. Various additional functions facilitate such satellite service, including via frequency conversion, doppler manipulation, a repeater, and frequency equalization / negative-slope compensation.

Link down event management with logical path remapping

A networking device uses multipath routing for paths designated as logical paths having associated physical interfaces, such that link down events are processed by remapping related logical paths to other physical links. The networking device includes a forwarding table that is generated according to a multipath algorithm, such as an equal-cost multipath (ECMP) algorithm. The forwarding table specifies different logical paths mapped to physical links, which may include different physical interfaces and related processing information. Packets are processed by selecting a logical path and applying the mapped profile information and / or physical egress interface of the selected logical path. When a link down monitor detects a link down event, a logical path mapped to the now-unavailable physical link is remapped to another physical link, enabling packets to be selected for the affected logical path and successfully processed before re-calculation of forwarding table to account for the unavailable physical link.
