Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "State extractor for middlebox management system." This invention presents a method for automatically identifying state information in various middlebox programs. It begins by identifying relevant program portions through an expansion from a packet processing loop to statements that are dependent on that loop. The method collects persistent variables and can filter them based on their usage or modification status. This innovation allows for the segregation of identified state variables, which can be tailored to specific requests, thereby reducing the network burden during state data transfer.
Another notable patent is "Cloud architecture with state-saving middlebox scaling." This invention describes an enterprise computer system that efficiently adjusts the number of middleboxes in response to demand changes. It facilitates the transfer of both instruction flows and associated middlebox states, ensuring loss-less and order-preserving transfers. The two-step transfer process buffers packets during the transfer and marks them for processing by the receiving middlebox, which enhances the overall efficiency of packet handling.
