Title: State-based management of messaging system jitter buffers
Inventor: LUBBS STEPHEN
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2010-07-20
Abstract: Buffering is made more efficient by resizing a jitter buffer based, for example, on a user's location within a TUI. To illustrate how this might be implemented in a TUI-based system, assume that two jitter buffer sizes are available: a larger one for voice and a smaller one for DTMF. Assume that the ability to select the buffer size is software-controllable. By virtue of the TUI structure, the initial state for a communication session could be a buffer size appropriate for DTMF. Since the messaging system may provide an audible beep whenever it's appropriate for a user to speak, the same sub-routine within the TUI code that triggers the beep could also command the buffer management mechanism instructing it to size the buffer for voice. Any subsequent DTMF entry or other event indicating that voice input has been terminated could cause the buffer to resize appropriately for DTMF.

Abstract: An earth working vehicle which has an internal combustion engine and a driveline for establishing a driving rela-tionship between the internal combustion engine and wheels of the earth working vehicle. The driveline includes a mechanical CVT.  The earth working vehicle also has a control for manual operation by a driver of the earth working vehicle, the control operable by the driver to select among at least two modes of operation, namely a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation, the selection of the first mode of operation corresponding to a command to cause the vehicle to move forward, the selection of the sec-ond mode of operation corresponding to a command to cause the vehicle to move backwards. The earth moving vehicle also has an electronic controller. While the vehicle is in motion, the electronic controller is responsive to a change of a mode of operation made via the control and indicating a command to reverse a direction of travel of the vehicle, to issue a control signal to the mechanical CVT to cause the mechanical CVT to downshift.
