Publication number: 20210037097Abstract: Technologies for monitoring data storage location for cloud data include a cloud monitoring server configured to communicate with one or more cloud customer computing devices and cloud service providers. The cloud monitoring server receives monitoring requests from the cloud customer computing devices and retrieves provider information from the cloud service providers. The cloud monitoring server compiles response data based on the monitoring requests and the provider information, and sends response data to the cloud customer computing devices. Cloud customer computing devices may send on-demand monitoring requests and/or continuous, policy-based monitoring requests. For policy-based monitoring, the cloud monitoring server continually monitors the provider information and provides response data when one or more conditions specified in the policy are satisfied. The cloud monitoring server may also make recommendations and provide feedback based on the monitoring requests or the provider information.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2020Publication date: February 4, 2021Inventors: Hong Li, John B.

Patent number: 10181052Abstract: Technologies for informing a remote user of a local user's availability to receive a contact on a communication device are disclosed. The availability of the local user may be determined based on the local user's context information, which may be reported to the remote user in response to a contact status request. The local user's context information provided to the remote user may inform, for example, whether the local user is available to receive a contact, the best way to contact the local user, and/or other context information of the local user. The type and/or level of specificity of the local user's context information reported to the remote user may be determined based on a privacy level, which may be determined based on the local user's context, the identity of the remote user, and/or other criteria. In some embodiments, contact status updates may be provided to the remote user.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2013Date of Patent: January 15, 2019Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Hong Li, Sharad K.

Patent number: 10082574Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products that allow for the determination of human presence in a room where content is being presented. The audio that is associated with the content may be captured, along with the audio that is being generated collectively by whatever sources may be in the room including the presentation of the content. Features may be extracted from both the content audio and the room audio. These features may then be compared, and the differences may be quantified. If the differences are significant, then human presence may be inferred.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2011Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Rita H.
