Title: Alan Ross: Innovator in Media Processing Technology
Introduction
Alan Ross is a notable inventor based in Winchester, MA (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of media processing technology. His innovative approach focuses on reducing latency in packet-based media processing systems.
Latest Patents
Alan Ross holds a patent for "Selective packet processing in a packet based media processor for latency reduction." This invention addresses the challenges of processing in-sequence media packets that arrive at a media server. The system processes these packets immediately while checking a buffer for previously deferred packets due to out-of-sequence arrival. The invention ensures that any in-sequence packets in the buffer are processed and forwarded right after the received in-sequence packet. Out-of-sequence packets are deferred and placed in the buffer, with a timer initiated for the missing packets. If a predetermined time passes without receipt of a missing packet, it is declared lost, allowing the next-in-sequence received packet to be processed and forwarded toward its destination.
