Abstract: A customer premise equipment (CPE) associated with a customer premise forms a virtual machine (VM) and allocates a portion of processing resources and a portion of communications resources included in the CPE to the VM. The processing resources include, for example, general purposes processes and specialized processors for performing certain tasks. The communications resources relate to exchanging data with the CPE. The VM is assigned to a service provider, and service data associated with a service is received from the service provider. The service data to be processed by the VM and the processed service data is forwarded to user devices at the customer premise to provide the service to the user devices. The CPE may form different VMs for different service providers.

Abstract: Techniques described herein may be used to implement an intelligent network analytics architecture (INAA) capable of monitoring a network in real-time and detecting faults occurring in the network. The INAA may develop and implement solutions to the problems, and subsequently verify that the solutions actually fixed the problems. The INAA may cause the solutions to be implemented throughout the network (and not just at the source of the initial problem). The INAA may identify other aspects of the network that are likely to experience similar (though not the same) problems in the future, develop solutions to those problems, and implement the solutions throughout the network. The INAA may enable an operator to participate in this process by providing a complete explanation of, and proposed solution to, a particular problem, and enabling the operator to approve, prevent, modify, postpone, etc., the implementation of the solution.

Abstract: Method, device, and storage medium that provides a briefing service. The briefing service includes a self-discovery mode and a suggestion box. The self-discovery mode allows a user to obtain information about a product or a thing based on an image capture of a Quick Response code. The Quick Response code is decoded and a parameter is extracted and used to generate a uniform resource identifier. The suggestion box allows a user to submit a suggestion regarding a briefing. The self-discovery mode and the suggestion box are provided to a user based on a briefing software that includes user interfaces.

Abstract: A method includes identifying a plurality of content hubs associated with an enterprise. Each content hub represents a type of content associated with an enterprise. The method also includes identifying primary nodes dependent on each content hub. The primary nodes represent subgroups of the content associated with the content hub. The method includes identifying secondary nodes associated with each primary node. The secondary nodes represent content items from the subgroups of content associated with the primary nodes. The method further includes arranging the content hubs in a visual representation of an enterprise ecosystem. The enterprise ecosystem displays a relationship between the content hubs. The method also includes displaying dependent nodes within a relationship context of the enterprise ecosystem based on user selection.

Abstract: A device is configured to receive information that identifies entity representations, receive first entity information associated with a first entity representation, and receive second entity information associated with a second entity representation. The device is configured to generate a first tag associated with the first entity representation, and generate a second tag associated with the second entity representation. The device is configured to receive user input information including information regarding user selections of entity representations, determine a relationship between the first tag and the second tag, and store an association between the first and second entity representations. The device is configured to detect an interaction associated with the first entity representation, and to provide the second entity representation based on the interaction and based on the association between the first and the second entity representations.

Abstract: A device may receive, from a browser, a message requesting that a first signal from a first base station of a first wireless network be attenuated in accordance with a first attenuation value. The device may set an attenuation level of the first wireless signal in accordance with the first attenuation value in response to the message. The first signal attenuated by the first attenuation value is wirelessly transmitted to a first user device at a first area shielded from signals wirelessly transmitted to a second user device at a second location.

Abstract: An approach is provided for configuring telemetry devices over a wireless network is disclosed. A client (e.g., web browser application) communicates with a fleet and asset management system to obtain information about a plurality of objects (vehicle or asset). In response to the user input, the client transmits the user input to the fleet and asset management, wherein the fleet and asset management generates a configuration message based on the user input for transmission over the wireless network to the one telemetry device for configuring an input/output (I/O) port of the telemetry device. The I/O port is coupled to a corresponding one of the objects. The telemetry device sets parameters relating to the I/O port according to the configuration message.

Abstract: An approach is provided for tracking a telemetry device over a wireless network. A determination is made whether the telemetry device is operating in a first mode requiring assisted Global Positioning System (A-GPS) data from the wireless network to determine location of the telemetry device. The A-GPS data is transmitted to the telemetry device if the telemetry device is operating in the first mode, wherein the telemetry device operates in a second mode to obtain GPS data autonomously for determining the location when the telemetry device is outside of the coverage area of the wireless network.
