    摘要: The embodiments described herein present methods and apparatus for dynamically assigning values in a network. A method includes receiving, at a designated value allocator from a network node, a first broadcast message using a link-state protocol. The method then identifies the first broadcast message as including a request to associate a parameter value to the network node and allocates an assigned parameter value to the network node based on the identification of the request included in the first broadcast message. A message that includes the assigned parameter value is then transmitted to the network node. Other embodiments are described.

    摘要: This invention is a network that is defined by its novel approach to privacy, security and freedom for its users. Privacy by allowing access anonymously, security by encrypting and obfuscating resources and freedom by allowing users to anonymously and irrefutably be seen as genuine individuals on the network and to communicate with other users with total security and to securely access resources that are both their own and those that are shared by others with them. Further, this invention comprises a system of self healing data, secure messaging and a voting system to allow users to dictate the direction of development of the network, whereby adoption or denial of proposed add-ons to the network will be decided. System incompatibilities and security breaches on networks and the Internet are addressed by this invention where disparity and tangents of development have had an undue influence. The functional mechanisms that this invention provides will restore open communications and worry-free access in a manner that is very difficult to infect with viruses or cripple through denial of service attacks and spam messaging, plus, it will provide a foundation where vendor lock-in need not be an issue.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for monitoring a status of nodes of a communication network. The method determines first node status data at a first node by diagnosing the own status of the first node and the status of at least one second node, sends the first node status data to at least one second node, receives second node status data from at least one second node, and determines node status evaluation data at the first node based on the determined first node status data and the received second node status data. Furthermore, improvements are proposed for the sake of efficiency and/or robustness of the method.

    摘要: A method of organizing nodes of a network into clusters of nodes comprises a step (130) of calculating, for each node, a weight, representing the aptness of this node to be the master node of a grouping, and a step (190) of electing a master node of a grouping, such that the weight of this master node is greater than or equal to the weights of the other nodes of the grouping. The method furthermore comprises a step (140 180) of storing, in each node, an information cue (14) containing an identifier of the node of highest weight known by this node and the value of this highest weight, a step (150) of transmitting, by each node to nodes adjacent to this node, the information cue (14) stored in this node, and a step (170) of comparing, for each node, the information cues (14) transmitted to this node during the transmitting step (150) with the information cue stored in this node, so as to determine a new node of highest weight known by this node. The steps of storing (180), transmitting (150) and comparing (170) are repeated successively a predetermined number (k) of times, on conclusion of which the step (190) of electing a master node is carried out, in the course of which a node (M) whose stored information cue contains its own identifier is chosen to be a master node.

    摘要: A mechanism is disclosed for managing a distributed computing system in which a plurality of services are provided by a plurality of members. Initially, one of the members of the system is elected as the global master for the system. Thereafter, the global master selects a service master (where a service master comprises a member of the system) for each of the services provided by the system, such that each service has an associated service master. Each service master may be selected based upon an associated set of service master selection criteria. Once selected, each service master manages requests for the service with which the service master is associated. In this manner, services and the requests for the services are effectively managed.

    摘要: The systems and methods of the present invention provide a quiescing protocol. In one embodiment, nodes of a system utilize the protocol to complete processing until they reach a consistent state. In one embodiment, a coordinator initiates the quiescing process and the nodes communicate with each other to determine whether their messages have been processed and communicate with the coordinator to determine when all of the messages have been processed
