Title: Paramananda Ponnaiyan: Inventor in Packet Flow Control

Introduction

Paramananda Ponnaiyan is an inventor associated with Bengaluru, India, and Cisco Technology, Inc. His patent work addresses packet flow control in variable-latency systems.

Latest Patents

Ponnaiyan is associated with 1 patent, titled “Flow Control in a Variable Latency System.” The invention describes a device and method for managing packet flow between a sender and a receiver. The sender adds a flow-control identifier to a packet and transmits it to the receiver. The receiver returns flow-control data containing an identifier generated in response to the one it received. By comparing the sent and returned identifiers, the sender can estimate the state of the receiver’s buffer. In an example embodiment, the sender can also add an instruction directing the receiver to enter a “no transmit” state.

Career Highlights

Ponnaiyan’s listed patent work focuses on coordinating packet transmission when network latency varies. This approach uses feedback about receiver-buffer conditions to help manage the flow of data.

Collaborations

Ponnaiyan’s listed coworkers include Leonardo Amatori and Steven Philip Holmes. His patent is associated with Cisco Technology, Inc.

Conclusion

Paramananda Ponnaiyan’s patent describes a feedback-based approach to packet flow control, using identifiers and receiver-buffer estimates to manage data transmission in variable-latency systems.
