Application: Distributed network management system (Patent ID: US20240015595A1)

The patent filed by Apple Inc. describes a system that involves a distributed network with two computer systems connected to different sets of network nodes. The first computer system receives data representing a request for additional network resources from a network node and identifies a portion of available network resources. It then transmits transaction data representing the sharing of these resources by another network node with the requesting node and adds this transaction data to a distributed ledger. The system aims to efficiently manage and share network resources among different nodes within the network.

The method outlined in the patent involves receiving data requests for network resources, identifying available resources, and facilitating the sharing of these resources between network nodes. The system utilizes rules for resource exchange, prediction data for future resource demand, and a distributed ledger, potentially a blockchain, to track and record resource transactions. By enabling efficient resource sharing based on demand and availability, the system aims to optimize network resource utilization and enhance network performance.
