    Abstract: In one embodiment, a first network device includes a host interface to receive messages from a host device, packet processing circuitry to send a batch of the messages to a second network device without waiting for an acknowledgement receipt from the second network device after sending each message, one message in the batch having a maximum message sequence number (MSN), receive a given acknowledgement receipt from the second network device indicating that all the messages in the batch have been received and including credit data indicating that there is no space in a receive work queue of the second network device for receiving an additional message, and send the additional message having an MSN greater than the maximum MSN to the second network device responsively to receiving the given acknowledgement receipt and based on the credit data indicating that there is no space in the receive work queue.

    Abstract: A first network probe is associated with a first router and with a first end-point of the first router, and a second network probe is associated with a second router and with a second end-point of the second router. The first network probe periodically injects flag packets in parallel to the traffic of a communication tunnel between the first and second end-points, with each flag packet including timestamp information expressing a time reference for the injection of the flag packet. Information relating to a timing variation in traffic in the communication tunnel is gathered, with the timing variation being measured due to a difference between the timestamp information contained in the flag packets and timestamp information relating to the instant the flag packets were captured by the second probe. Possible congestion situations experienced by the communication tunnel are assessed as a function of the gathered information.

    Abstract: Network congestion occurs when the volume of data to be sent from one node to another, in a given time, exceeds the network's capacity. While all networks are susceptible to congestion, a wireless network of vehicles/moving vehicles are particularly sensitive as any delays in offloading acquired data may cause the vehicles/moving vehicles to pause operations (e.g., hover or land and later return to a location) while waiting to send data. By monitoring data buffer size and/or other system attributes, a measure of how successful data transmission is a corresponding degree of network congestion. When network congestion is present congestion mitigating actions are taken.

    Abstract: A processor is configured to receive, from a first device, a plurality of first-direction packets belonging to a flow of communication, pass the first-direction packets to a second device, receive, from the second device, a plurality of second-direction packets belonging to the flow, pass the second-direction packets to the first device, calculate, after receiving each of at least some of the second-direction packets, an estimated in-flight number, by assuming that the second-direction packet acknowledges receipt of a number of the first-direction packets that is based on an estimated average number of received first-direction packets acknowledged by the second-direction packets, the estimated in-flight number being an estimated volume of payload data, contained at least partly in the first-direction packets, that has been passed by the processor to the second device but has not yet been received by the second device, and to regulate the flow, based on the estimated in-flight number.

    Abstract: Techniques for wireless device roaming are disclosed. These techniques include identifying a wireless client entity for roaming from a first infrastructure entity to a second infrastructure entity. The techniques further include agreeing, between the client entity and the first infrastructure entity, on one or more roaming conditions defined using transition parameters for transition of a first data flow for the client entity from the first infrastructure entity to the second infrastructure entity, the one or more transition parameters including a sequence number relating to the dataflow. The techniques further include determining that a first condition defined in terms of a transition parameter of the agreed one or more roaming conditions is met, and, based on the determining, transitioning from providing the first dataflow from the first infrastructure entity to the client entity to providing the first data flow from the second infrastructure entity to the client entity.
