Filed:

Jun 29, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/171940

Inventors:

Dhananjay C. Motwani - Union City CA, US
Sudhir Jain - Fremont CA, US
Jyoti Jain - Fremont CA, US
Vikram P. Kumar - San Jose CA, US
Nitya Sundareswaran - Sunnyvale CA, US

Assignee:

CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC. - San Jose CA

International Classification:

H04W 28/08
H04W 24/00

US Classification:

370235

Abstract:

Techniques are provided to load balance point of presence traffic for a group of network devices, such as switches, that are configured to support network connectivity in a wired network for client devices that roam between wireless access points served by the respective switches. The point of presence traffic may tend to be allocated to a particular switch due to network topology, whereby the switch may be located at a building entrance and therefore receive the majority of new association requests for mobile devices entering the building. Load is monitored by each switch and load information is exchanged between the switches. Requests and responses are exchanged between the switches such that point of presence responsibility may be transferred to switches with a lighter load.

Abstract:

This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for implementing voice-enabled devices in vehicle environments to facilitate voice interaction with vehicle computing devices. Due to the differing communication capabilities of existing vehicle computing devices, the techniques described herein describe different communication topologies for facilitating voice interaction with the vehicle computing devices. In some examples, the voice-enabled device may be communicatively coupled to a user device, which may communicate with a remote speech-processing system to determine and perform operations responsive to the voice commands, such as conducting phone calls using loudspeakers of the vehicle computing device, streaming music to the vehicle computing device, and so forth. In this way, the communication topologies between the voice-enabled computing device, the vehicle computing device, and the user device provide for voice control of vehicle computing devices which may otherwise be unable to be controlled by voice commands.
