Abstract: Provided are techniques for organizing a temporary device group for collaborative computing. A list of functions for each of a plurality of devices are stored. A determination is made to form a device group including a receiver device from the plurality of devices, where the receiver device will perform one of the functions. An individual function usage score is generated. In response to the individual function usage score exceeding a device threshold, a request to form a device group is sent to the receiver device. In response to receiving an indication of acceptance to form the device group from the receiving device, the device group is formed for a temporary period, where functions and data are shared in the device group.

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.

The pre-defined frequency is a high frequency performance feature of the re-assembly middleware, wherein the FPGA's implementation frequency is at atleast 300 MHz based on a memory optimization technique. The memory optimization technique includes several strategies such registering an output and slicing memories.

Abstract: In accordance with one or more embodiments, aspects of the disclosure may provide efficient, effective, and convenient ways of managing network devices. In particular, a client router may connect to an upstream virtual gateway. The virtual gateway may manage a large number of client devices. Each client router may be represented virtually within the gateway as a virtual router. The virtual gateways may be distributed regionally, in order to manage large numbers of client routers and/or to reduce transmission delays. The virtual gateways may be managed by a gateway controller. The gateway controller may be centralized, and perform various configuration functions, such as configurations for hardware, logical networking, or content access policies. In some instances, messages sent between the gateway controller using a first protocol and the client router using a second protocol may be translated by a protocol agent.

Abstract: A virtual network interface controller (NIC) associated with a virtual machine in a cloud computing network is configured to support one or more network containers that encapsulate networking configuration data and policies that are applicable to a specific discrete computing workload to thereby enable the virtual machine to simultaneously belong to multiple virtual networks using the single NIC. The network containers supported by the NIC can be associated with a single tenant to enable additional flexibility such quickly switching between virtual networks and support pre-provisioning of additional computing resources with associated networking policies for rapid deployment. The network containers can also be respectively associated with different tenants so that the single NIC can support multi-tenant services on the same virtual machine.
