Abstract: Systems and methods for providing decentralized tokenization with mapping data devoid of sensitive data. A node receives a set of index-key pairs generated by a randomization service external to the node.

Data-in-transit comprising sensitive data is received. A tokenization service of the node generates a token for the sensitive data using the mapping structure.

Abstract: Example storage systems, storage devices, and methods provide novel management of storage device compute operations using intermediate results, such as approximate or partial results, to optimize processing flow. An example system has a storage medium and a storage controller coupled to the storage medium that is configured to evaluate a processing capability of a storage device and determine, based on the processing capability, that only a portion of a multi-stage compute operation is completable within a requested processing timeframe. The storage processor may further be configured to determine and provide an intermediate result, which may include an approximation or a partial result of the multi-stage compute operation. The intermediate result may be used by a client to manage its own processing while it awaits a final processing result.

Abstract: Systems and methods of reducing remote procedure calls in multimedia content delivery are described. A client device can request and receive digital content for presentation via an application executing on the client device in a sandboxed media environment. A markup interpreter executing on the client device can intercept, prior to receipt by the application executing in the sandboxed media environment, the content item.

The markup interpreter can identify the script stored in a local cache on the client device separate from the sandboxed media environment. The markup interpreter can construct a modified content item. The markup interpreter can forward the modified content item to the application executing on the client device in the sandboxed media environment to cause the application to execute the modified content item.

Abstract: In a wireless network, a user equipment (UE) may support reflective quality of service (QoS), where QoS applied to uplink packets is implicitly derived from downlink packets. For example, when the UE receives a downlink packet that includes a reflective QoS (RQoS) indicator and a QoS flow identifier (QFI), the UE may apply the same QoS associated with the downlink packet to an uplink packet with one or more attributes that match the downlink packet. However, for a received downlink encapsulating security payload (ESP) packet that includes an RQoS indicator and a QFI, a modem cannot determine an uplink security parameters index (SPI) and downlink SPI pairing needed to enable RQoS because the uplink/downlink SPI pairing is known only by the upper layer. Accordingly, some aspects described herein enable the modem to learn uplink/downlink SPI pairings for ESP packets and thereby enable RQoS for ESP packets.
