Abstract: Systems and network devices configured to use Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC) to provide different internet protocol (IP) address information to user equipment (UE) devices that are connected to the same local area network (LAN). A network device (e.g., default router, etc.) may determine whether a UE device is eligible to receive special treatment based on a link-layer address of the UE device. The network device send the UE device an unicast router advertisement that includes a special prefix in response to determining that the UE device is eligible to receive special treatment. The network device may send the UE device an unicast router advertisement that includes a base prefix for the LAN in response to determining that the UE device is not eligible to receive special treatment.

Abstract: Systems and methods for the exchange of information between an enterprise client and a partner within an enterprise environment are provided. In this exchange of information, the client selects, via a user interface, a subset of client data, as well as one or more screen sets, to share with a partner. Once the partner has accepted, the system then sends an account creation request or account login request to the partner. Once the partner is authenticated in the system with an account, the system creates an information exchange session for the partner, and provides, on a display of the partner's device, a user interface that shows the subset of the client data and the screen sets. Access to the rest of the customer's enterprise environment is restricted.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses associated with determining a location of a mobile device are described. Examples can include receiving, at a mobile device in response to a triggering event, signaling that indicates the mobile device is in an unauthorized location, in possession of an unauthorized user, or both. Examples can include prompting an input representative of authorized user verification and enabling one or more circuits or power supplies of the mobile device based at least in part on determining that a value of the input satisfies. In response and based at least in part on determining that the value of the input fails to satisfy the threshold, examples can include capturing environmental data and location data associated with the mobile device and communicating the environmental data and location data and a location determination to an authorized user. In some examples, a mobile device can be deactivated responsive to unconfirmed authorized verification.

The mobile computing device may notify a merchandise pickup system of the customer's desire to pickup the purchased items.

Abstract: A semi-supervised machine learning model can provide for classifying an input data point as associated with a particular target location or a particular action. Each data point comprises one or more sensor values from one or more signals emitted by one or more signal sources located within a physical area. A tagged sample set and an untagged sample set are combined to train the machine learning model. Each tagged sample includes a respective data point and a label representing a respective location/action. Each untagged sample includes a data point, but is unlabeled. Once trained, given a current data point, the machine learning model can classify the current data point as associated with a particular location/action, after which a target object (e.g., other device or application to be used) can be predicted.
