  • Patent number: 11856073
    Abstract: A framework in which computing devices can divide messages into chunks or sub-portions for transmission in accordance with a topic-based messaging protocol. A caching service facilitates the receipt of a set of messages with individual sub-portions. The caching service uses embedded information in the sub-portion messages to determine when a full set of sub-portions have been received. The caching service can release a completed set of sub-portion messages to an intended network service recipient or utilizing time expiration caching criteria to wait for additional messages.

  • Patent number: 11782623
    Abstract: A partition function is transferred from a source system to a multi-tenant target environment. The transfer is executed from a source system to a multi-tenant target environment. Physical and logical input/output (I/O) configuration settings of a partition image are separated on the source system, moving logical I/O configuration settings from the source system to a remote multi-tenant target environment. A dedicated target system of the remote multi-tenant target environment is selected. Physical information about hardware and connections of the dedicated target system are added to the logical I/O configuration settings. The logical I/O configuration settings combined with the physical information in the target system are activated. An operating system with the activated logical I/O configuration is started such that the partition function is transferred.

  • Patent number: 11778028
    Abstract: Implementations relate to automatic sharing of images with designated users over a communication network. In some implementations, a method includes causing display of images in a user interface on a first device, each of the images depicting a different person. The images are obtained from a library of images associated with a first user. A selection of a particular image of the images is received based on user input, and a person identifier is determined indicating a particular person depicted in the selected image. The person identifier is designated as a person sharing criterion. A first image not included in the images is obtained and programmatically analyzed to determine that the first image depicts a person that matches the person sharing criterion, and an access permission is updated to grant access to the first image to a second user of a second device over a communication network.

  • Patent number: 11770326
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a network interface and a processor. The network interface communicates with a network including switches interconnected in a Cartesian topology having multiple dimensions. The processor predefines turn types of turns in the Cartesian topology, each turn traverses first and second hops along first and second dimensions having same or different respective identities, and each turn type is defined at least by identities of the first and second dimensions. The processor searches for a preferred route from a source switch to a destination switch, by evaluating candidate routes based on the number of VLs required for preventing a deadlock condition caused by the candidate route. The number of VLs required depends on a sequential pattern of turn types formed by the candidate route. The processor configures one or more switches in the network to route packets from the source switch to the destination switch along the preferred route.

  • Patent number: 11757915
    Abstract: A security control point (SCP) that protects target computing system is tested in-place and while active. The approach is initiated the SCP receiving and processing one or more “simulated” communication flows. To this end, a test initiator system is configured to generate and transmit communication flows to the SCP being tested. The SCP extracts the encapsulated flow, and then processes that flow through one or more of the SCP's configured protection mechanisms. Thus, the SCP processes the simulated communication flow as though it were a real session, and thus to determine what actions, if any, should be taken with respect to that flow. After processing, the simulated session traffic is shunted or otherwise diverted away from the target computing system. The results of the SCP's processing, however, are output to other systems (e.g., logging or alerting mechanisms), or they are returned to the test initiation system, e.g., for correlation, reporting, and the like.

  • Patent number: 11750547
    Abstract: A caption of a multimodal message (e.g., social media post) can be identified as a named entity using an entity recognition system. The entity recognition system can use an attention-based mechanism that emphasis or de-emphasizes each data type (e.g., image, word, character) in the multimodal message based on each datatypes relevance. The output of the attention mechanism can be used to update a recurrent network to identify one or more words in the caption as being a named entity.
