Abstract: The present invention relates to an online diagnostic platform, and a permission management method and a permission management system thereof. The permission management method includes: when user information of a registered user is received, assigning a role in a role set to the registered user; determining a permission corresponding to the role; and generating a menu corresponding to the registered user, where the menu includes one or more function portals, the function portal being used for requesting execution of a diagnostic service function. The method uses security control policies such as the registered user, the role and the permission, and is flexible in management and relationship configuration. In addition, the permission management system is separated from a service system, has good expansibility, and can ensure stable running and data security of the system.

One or more APIs associated with the application instance may be hooked to provide the remote user input to an input queue of the application instance, bypassing an operating system input queue in some embodiments. APIs associated with the application instance and the window composition module may be hooked to allow the host device to recognize window textures generated by the application instance. These recognized window textures may be sent to the remote client device.

Abstract: An electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface and display can execute a messaging application. The messaging application provides options for sending a message with a large attachment. In one option it allows for sending a message with a large attachment by uploading and storing the attachment on a cloud server, embeds a link to the storage location in the message, and sends the message without the attachment. The messaging application may also include a UI element in the message that includes an indicator about the status of the stored attachment. Furthermore, the messaging application may embed in the message a smaller sized version of the attachment before sending the message. The status indicator may display whether the link to the storage location has expired or whether the attachment has previously been retrieved from the cloud server.

Abstract: Technologies for contention-aware cloud compute scheduling include a number of compute nodes in a cloud computing cluster and a cloud controller. Each compute node collects performance data indicative of cache contention on the compute node, for example, cache misses per thousand instructions. Each compute node determines a contention score as a function of the performance data and stores the contention score in a cloud state database. In response to a request for a new virtual machine, the cloud controller receives contention scores for the compute nodes and selects a compute node based on the contention score. The cloud controller schedules the new virtual machine on the selected compute node. The contention score may include a contention metric and a contention score level indicative of the contention metric. The contention score level may be determined by comparing the contention metric to a number of thresholds. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Described are embodiments for displaying groups of communications, such as messages, as a conversation. Conversations are groups of communications that can be traced back as related to an original communication. The embodiments allow a user to select a conversation mode for displaying communications, e.g., messages, as conversations. In response to the user's selection, embodiments provide for displaying a graphical element associated with a conversation. The graphical element can be selected to display the messages associated with the conversation. Additionally, embodiments provide for selecting a conversation and applying actions to the conversation, resulting in the application of the action to the messages that are associated with the conversation.

Abstract: The present disclosure sets up the foundation of consistency for cloud authorization. Consistency is formalized as univalence and a scheme of inductive types, and consistency pushouts and pullbacks are derived for cloud authorization. Induction schemas are developed for services, repositories and messages. The consistency is characterized as relative consistency, paraconsistency, and three levels of inconsistency. Due to duality of consistency, consistency recovery is constructed with a semantic model and synthetic retry message type families.
