A method and system for communication between server-less computing devices or clients in computers communicating over networks, such as the World Wide Web (WWW) using stateless protocols, e.g., HTTP. In this scheme, there are two classes of clients which can operate independently or can be combined in computers communicating over the network: a) clients that issue commands and request status or data, and b) clients that function as service brokers for providing services and processing commands, updating status and providing specific data—resembleing a server device but without accessible TCP/IP ports. Each service providing device is authenticated, retains a unique identity and establishes a soft state with the globally accessible server or servers. All devices and clients can compile and process a globally common command language established between all communicating network clients. The central server includes a CGI processing program and a database to retain client specific information. The server database represents a collection of queues, each having a client unique identifiable status, pending commands and/or data components. In this scheme, commands and signaling transmitted between the servers and clients utilize standard HTTP protocol semantics and HTML or standard markup language syntax. Clients encapsulate or embed information as parameters passed to HTTP CGI as a set of standard HTTP conversations. A CGI processing program converts, parses or processes each conversation and passes arguments with or without data to queues.

An instant messaging application intelligently infers a user's unavailability from one or more indicia which include the user's electronic calendar. Preferably, the instant messaging application may report not only that a user is unavailable, but also give a reason for inferring unavailability, in order to provide other users with additional potentially useful information. Preferably, the user may specify which indicia and which parameters may be used to infer his unavailability in an editable profile. When another user requests status, this value is returned by the server. An intelligent instant messaging application as described herein provides other users with more accurate and complete availability information.

The plurality of source drivers share the auxiliary status channel to indicate their status. The timing controller transmits display data to a source driver through a data channel. The display data includes a request for status data from the source driver. The source driver transmits the requested status data to the timing controller via the auxiliary status channel.

This invention is directed to a system and method for providing a status certification for a message in a communications network. An embodiment of this invention is a voicemail system, which provides a caller in a telecommunications network with the option of certifying a voicemail message when the recording of the message is complete. By certifying the voicemail message, the caller is indicating that the voicemail system should track any actions related to the message that occur within the voicemail system so that the caller may later access the voicemail system and ascertain the status of the message. When the caller requests certification, the voicemail system provides the caller with a means to subsequently initiate a request for the status certification. As actions are taken in relation to the message, the voicemail system creates disposition identifiers and associates these identifiers with the message. When a caller accesses the telecommunications network and requests the status certification, the voicemail determines to which message the request is directed by prompting the caller or by some other means. The system then retrieves the disposition identifiers and provides the status to the caller in a format supported by whatever access means the caller is using to make the request.

This invention is directed to a system and method for providing a status notification and reply for a message in a communications network. An embodiment of this invention is a voicemail system, which provides a caller in a telecommunications network with the option of requesting a status notification and reply for a voicemail message when the recording of the message is complete. By requesting status notification and reply, the caller is indicating that the voicemail system should track any actions related to the message that occur within the voicemail system. The caller also specifies a destination identifier, which includes formatting and addressing information that the voicemail system uses for subsequent notification and for communicating any reply to the message. As actions are taken in relation to the message, the voicemail system creates disposition identifiers and associates these identifiers with the message. When a triggering event occurs, such as the recipient deleting the message, the voicemail system retrieves the disposition identifiers to generate the status notification and sends the status notification in the format and to the address specified by the destination identifier. If the recipient replies to the message, the voicemail system also communicates the reply in the format and to the address specified by the destination identifier.

Described embodiments provide a packet classifier of a network processor having a plurality of processing modules. A scheduler generates a thread of contexts for each tasks generated by the network processor corresponding to each received packet. The thread corresponds to an order of instructions applied to the corresponding packet. A multi-thread instruction engine processes the threads of instructions. A state engine operates on instructions received from the multi-thread instruction engine, the instruction including a cache access request to a local cache of the state engine. A cache line entry manager of the state engine translates between a logical index value of data corresponding to the cache access request and a physical address of data stored in the local cache. The cache line entry manager manages data coherency of the local cache and allows one or more concurrent cache access requests to a given cache data line for non-overlapping data units.

An audio conferencing client application provides a user interface that facilitates turn taking in both moderated and unmoderated audio conferences. The user interface provides each conference participant with the ability to set an icon that indicates a request to speak. This request state is propagated to the audio conferencing clients of all other participants, where each such audio conferencing client then displays a request icon associated with the requesting participant. Where multiple participants request to speak, their respective request icons can be numbered. In a moderated conference, a moderator can control which participants can speak, an make that decision in view of the outstanding requests and their order. The request icons can be dismissed either automatically or manually.

Described herein are systems and methods that reduce the latency which may occur when a level one (L1) cache issues a request to a level two (L2) cache, and that ensure that a translation requests sent to an L2 cache are flushed during a context switch. Such a system may include a work queue and a cache (such as an L2 cache). The work queue comprises a plurality of state machines, each configured to store a request for access to memory. The state machines can monitor requests that are stored in the other state machines and requests that the other state machines issue to the cache. A state machine only sends its request to the cache if another state machine is not already awaiting translation data relating to the that request. In this way, the request/translation traffic between the work queue and the cache can be significantly reduced.

The utility model relates to a trigger method for an ARQ (automatic retransmission request) status report; wherein, a timer T1 and a time threshold value T2 are arranged when a verification mode radio link control entity of a receiving end detects a loss of a protocol data unit from a radio link control layer. No new timer is arranged when the loss of the protocol data unit (PDU) from a new radio link control layer is detected before the time value. The verification mode radio link control entity triggers a status report without receiving the lost protocol data unit from the radio link control layer when the timer T1 expires. The time threshold value T2 can be equal to the time length of the timer T1. The utility model has the advantages of effectively reducing the quantity of timers needed for the receiving end AMRLC entity ARQ to trigger the status report, message quantity and data size of passage packets needed to feed back the status report, and improving the wireless resource utilization and the system performance.

A novel cache coherency protocol provides a modified-unsolicited (Mu) cache state to indicate that a value held in 5 a cache line has been modified (i.e., is not currently consistent with system memory), but was modified by another processing unit, not by the processing unit associated with the cache that currently contains the value in the Mu state, and that the value is held exclusive of any other horizontally adjacent caches. Because the value is exclusively held, it may be modified in that cache without the necessity of issuing a bus transaction to other horizontal caches in the memory hierarchy. The Mu state may be applied as a result of a snoop response to a read request. The read request can include a flag to indicate that the requesting cache is capable of utilizing the Mu state. Alternatively, a flag may be provided with intervention data to indicate that the requesting cache should utilize the modified-unsolicited state.

A routing protocol is used to transmit messages from a sender to a receiver over a network of nodes, where adversaries can control links between the nodes and can also control the behavior of a large number of nodes. Various techniques can be used, along or in combination, to combat these effects. In one approach, certain trigger conditions are identified, the occurrence of which signals malicious behavior within the network. When signaled, the sender requests status reports from the intermediate nodes in an effort to determine which nodes are malicious. The information for the status reports is generated by nodes as packets are passed from one node to the next.
