  • Patent number: 11140216
    Abstract: A computer streaming system includes a remote user device and a host streaming unit. The host streaming unit determines input methods suitable for the remote user device to interact with content streamed to the remote user using a selected application. The host streaming unit detects whether a user interface of the selected application is supported by the remote user device and dynamically institutes emulated native input support for the remote user device when the host streaming unit detects the user interface of the selected application is not supported by the remote user device. Additionally, the host streaming unit dynamically dismisses emulated native input support for the remote user device when the host streaming unit detects the user interface of the selected application is supported by the remote user device, causing the remote user device to return to native input control.

  • Patent number: 11115462
    Abstract: A distributed system is disclosed in which one or more servers respond to requests for content including hyperlinks. Hyperlinks provide an interactive visual manifestation of an underlying reference to a resource. By using a graphical user interface provided by the device, a user is able to select a hyperlink, and thereby control the device to obtain the resource to which the underlying reference refers. However, if a user selects a hyperlink and the device is unable to follow the underlying reference to obtain the resource, user disappointment results. By arranging the server, on providing visual content including one or more hyperlinks, to attempt (212) to follow the references underlying the hyperlinks, and to alter (216) the appearance of any hyperlink for which the underlying reference could not be followed, users are alerted to the likelihood that selecting the hyperlink will not lead to them obtaining the resource. In this way, user disappointment is avoided.

  • Patent number: 11055116
    Abstract: A host device detects a first request from a first remote device and a second request from a second remote device, each request related to hosting one or more computing desktop environments within a virtual machine, wherein each remote device is at a respective location. The host device determines that the remote devices are qualified to share computing desktop environments based on a proximity threshold. The host device hosts a first computing desktop environment for sharing by the remote devices. The host device gathers respective new locations of the remote devices. The host device determines, by identifying that the respective new locations are not close enough to satisfy the proximity threshold, that the remote devices are no longer qualified to share computing desktop environments. The host device terminates the access of the first remote device to the first computing desktop environment and maintains the access of the second remote device.

  • Patent number: 11032130
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe a troubleshooting method, apparatus, and system, and pertain to the field of troubleshooting. An embodiment of the method may include monitoring, by a virtualized network function (VNF), an operating status of at least one virtual machine (VM) inside the VNF. The method may also include determining, by the VNF according to a fault when the fault occurs on the VM, whether to perform VM rebuilding recovery. Furthermore the method may include sending, by the VNF, a rebuilding recovery request to a virtualized network function manager (VNFM) when determining to perform the VM rebuilding recovery. In this way, when the fault occurs on the VM, the VIM performs automatic rebuilding recovery for the VM by interactions between the VNFM and the VIM.

  • Patent number: 10917310
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for a content platform that receives a request to provide a digital component. The request includes information about users to which the digital component is directed. Futurized queries are obtained from serving logs of a serving system that is configured to execute an existing digital component using serving code that directs digital content to the set of users. The futurized queries are loaded as data structures in memory of a forecasting system. The system uses an instruction set derived from the serving code to determine that similarity between the particular futurized query and the request exceeds a threshold similarity. The system then generates a forecast output as a response to the request based on futurized queries that exceed the threshold similarity. The forecast output includes data describing future provision of the digital component.
