  • Patent number: 11272481
    Abstract: A distributed resource model is described that maintains traits of resources in a distributed computing system. The traits include properties, commands, and events that, along with protocols operating in the distributed computing system, provide real-time access to the traits of resources in the distributed computing system, as well as real-time command of controls for the resources. Controllers manage and publish the traits of resources and provide various types of functionality, such as arbitration, complexity management, fan-out of capabilities, coordination, adaptation, and resource proxying.

  • Patent number: 11222119
    Abstract: Technologies for secure native code invocation include a computing device having an operating system and a firmware environment. The operating system executes a firmware method in an operating system context using a virtual machine. In response to invoking the firmware method, the operating system invokes a callback to a bridge driver in the operating system context. In response to the callback, the bridge driver invokes a firmware runtime service in the operating system context. The firmware environment executes a native code handler in the operating system context in response to invoking the firmware runtime service. The native code handler may be executed in a de-privileged container. The firmware method may process results data stored in a firmware mailbox by the native code handler, which may include accessing a hardware resource using a firmware operation region.

  • Patent number: 11188401
    Abstract: A data processing system includes a transaction bus, a console application in communication with the transaction bus, and a view predictor subsystem in communication with the transaction bus. The transaction bus receives, from a user application executing on a client device, a call for visual information to be provided to the user application. The view predictor subsystem determines a likelihood that the visual information will be viewable within a viewport of the user application, and a plurality of respective values for a plurality of sources of the visual information are computed based on the likelihood and a respective priority for each source. The console application provides to the transaction bus the set of potential sources of the visual information, and the transaction bus selects, based on the computed values, one of the potential sources of the visual information to be the result, which is provided to the user application.

  • Patent number: 11126478
    Abstract: Methods and systems for processing events are disclosed. According to one embodiment, input source data that includes event data of one or more events is received. One or more event definitions that match the event data are selected. For each matching event definition, the event definition is inputted into a template to generate a set of events. The template includes a number of assertions and has the event definition as one of the assertions, where each assertion includes a constraint. The constraints of the assertions are progressively processed to produce one or more solutions that are subsets of the set of events. For each constraint and each solution, a set of target events that is viable for the solution is identified, and a new solution is produced based on the solution and the identified set of target events, whereby a set of new solutions is produced.

  • Patent number: 11126450
    Abstract: A device includes a memory and a node engine. The memory stores a table that includes input values represented by first correlithm objects, previous values represented by second correlithm objects, and output values represented by third correlithm objects. Each output value in the table is the difference between a corresponding input value and a corresponding previous value. The node engine receives an input correlithm object and a previous value correlithm object. The node engine determines a first correlithm object in the table based on the input correlithm object, and a second correlithm object in the table based on the previous value correlithm object. The node engine then determines a third correlithm object from the table based on the determined first correlithm object and the determined second correlithm object, and outputs the third correlithm object as an output correlithm object.

  • Patent number: 11055123
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for providing an ultra-high availability cloud emulator of an entity's data in a multi-tenant SaaS environment that is not controlled by the entity. The system extracts metadata related to the entity's data and user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment. The metadata is used to identify and extract data records for an entity from the multi-tenant SaaS environment, as well as to ascertain functional aspects of the entity user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment. A cloud emulator of the entity's data records and user interface in the multi-tenant SaaS environment is created using the extracted data records and metadata, where the cloud emulator is outside the multi-tenant SaaS environment. The entity is able to access the cloud emulator at the entity's discretion as a failover for the entity's data records in the multi-tenant SaaS environment and to modify the entity's data records in the cloud emulator.

  • Patent number: 11056151
    Abstract: In accordance with one or more aspects, a request to run an application is received. The application has an associated tune manifest that identifies one or more resources that the application may use. The tune manifest is compared to a device resource record, and a check is made, based at least in part on the comparing, whether the one or more resources identified in the tune manifest can be satisfied by the device. If the one or more resources identified in the tune manifest can be satisfied by the device, then the application is run; otherwise, a notification of a conflict between the application and the device is presented. Additionally, when the application exits, a device tune state that identifies a content source to which the device was tuned prior to running the application can be retrieved and the device restored to this device tune state.
