Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically controlling bandwidth of connections are described. In some embodiments, a proxy for one or more connections may allocate, distribute, or generate indications of network congestion via one or more connections in order to induce the senders of the connections to reduce their rates of transmission. The proxy may allocate, distribute, or generate these indications in such a way as to provide quality of service to one or more connections, or to ensure that a number of connections transmit within an accepted bandwidth limit. In other embodiments, a sender of a transport layer connection may have a method for determining a response to congestion indications which accounts for a priority of the connection. In these embodiments, a sender may reduce or increase parameters related to transmission rate at different rates according to a priority of the connection.

Abstract: A thermo-electro-acoustic engine comprises a sealed body (12) having a regenerator (14), hot and cold heat exchangers (16,18), an acoustic source (20), and an acoustic energy converter (22). An acoustic pressure wave is generated in a gas in the region of the regenerator (14). The converter (22) converts a portion of the acoustic pressure into electrical energy. A portion of the electrical energy is used to drive the acoustic source (20). The acoustic source (20) is controllably driven to produce acoustic energy which constructively adds to that of the acoustic pressure wave in the region of the regenerator. The remaining electrical energy produced by the converter is used external to the engine, such as to drive a load or for storage. The resonant frequency of the engine and the frequency of the energy output can be controlled electronically or electromechanically, and is not limited solely by the physical structure of the engine body and its elements.
