20090254674 | SESSION INITIATION PROTOCOL (SIP) OVERLOAD PROTECTION - A device receives a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) response that includes a load header associated with a downstream Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) device. The device also determines an amount of traffic to send to the downstream Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) device based on the load header. The device further sends the determined amount of traffic to the downstream Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) device. | 10-08-2009 |
20110051714 | Apparatuses, Methods and Systems For Tiered Routing Engine - The APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TIERED ROUTING ENGINE (“TRE”) provides an automatic routing, selecting, processing for calls placed in an international network according to a selected International Tier Level for premium or guaranteed delivery. In one embodiment, a platform initiates international tiered routing information to a gateway based on a pre-set platforms' knowledge of the terminating gateway topology, Automatic Number Identification, and assigned services that requires such transmission. In one embodiment, a user may select a tier to route an international call. In another embodiment, the contextual fields of a communication mechanism define tags and tier levels indicating determining, routing and handling information to be sent to a validated gateway, or routing devices. In one embodiment, contextual tags includes customized domain name and global descriptors of compatible network components, delivery control, trunk group service ID, trunk-related tier level, and other trunk-related service attributes for tiered routing. | 03-03-2011 |

20120269098 | TAGGING VoIP ORIGINATED TRAFFIC - A network node receives a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) or H.323 signaling packet associated with data traffic, and determines if the data traffic originated from a source node or source network as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) traffic. The network node tags a header of the SIP or H.323 signaling packet with a tag that identifies the data traffic as a VoIP originated call based on the determination, and sends the tagged SIP or H.323 signaling packet towards a destination. The network node further sends data identifying the data traffic as a VoIP originated call to an administrative system for at least one of call billing, rating, settlement or taxation purposes. | 10-25-2012 |
20130243171 | MULTIPARTY SERVICE ACCESS IN A NETWORK WITH AUTONOMOUS NODES - Methods, devices, and storage media provide for receiving a request to use a multiparty service offered by autonomous devices; determining whether persistence information exists that indicates one of the autonomous devices to which the request is to be routed; selecting one of the autonomous devices to transmit the request in response to determining that persistence information does not exist, and wherein the device has no knowledge which of the autonomous devices is to accept the request; transmitting the request; receiving a response; recognizing whether the request is accepted based on the response; storing persistence information indicating the one of the autonomous devices is servicing the request; and using the persistence information to transmit a subsequent request to use the multiparty service to the one of the autonomous devices, wherein the subsequent request pertains to a same session of the multiparty service as the request. | 09-19-2013 |

20090104652 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VIABLE AND NONVIABLE PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC CELL QUANTITATION - A rapid method for the quantitation of various live cell types is described. This new cell fluorescence method correlates with other methods of enumerating cells such as the standard plate count, the methylene blue method and the slide viability technique. The method is particularly useful in several applications such as: a) quantitating bacteria in milk, yogurt, cheese, meat and other foods, b) quantitating yeast cells in brewing, fermentation and bread making, c) quantitating mammalian cells in research, food and clinical settings. The method is especially useful when both total and viable cell counts are required such as in the brewing industry. The method can also be employed to determine the metabolic activity of cells in a sample. The apparatus, device, and/or system used for cell quantitation is also disclosed. | 04-23-2009 |
