Abstract: Control of a prompt for a credential to unlock a computer-readable storage device is provided. Some embodiments permit identifying a component that encrypted the computer-readable storage device and, depending on the identified component, prompting for such a credential. One embodiment can determine that a firmware encrypted the computer-readable storage device and can prompt for a password, for example, to unlock the computer-readable storage device during a boot-up process performed by the firmware. Other embodiments can determine that an operating system encrypted the computer-readable storage device, and can avoid the presentation of a prompt for a password, for example, during a boot-up process performed by the firmware. The computer-readable storage device can be a self-encrypting drive (SED) or another type of disk drive.

Abstract: In general, in one aspect, the invention relates to a method for processing data, the method includes obtaining, by a host operating system (OS) on a host computing device, a notification of a power down. The further includes, in response to the notification, performing a data storage analysis on data stored in host OS memory to identify a plurality of processing tasks to perform on the data, making a first determination, based on the data storage analysis, that data processing is to be offloaded to a graphics processing unit, and in response to the first determination: sending a data processing request to the processing unit, obtaining a second notification associated with processed data from the graphics processing unit, and storing the processed data in a backup storage device.

Abstract: The disclosure provides for a system that includes a network controller. The network controller is configured to receive information from nodes of a network, where nodes include one node that is in motion relative to another node. The network controller is also configured to generate a table representing available nodes and possible links in the network based on the information, and determine a topology of the network based on the table. Additionally, the network controller is configured to receive client data information from a client device, and determine flows for the topology based on the client data information. Each flow includes one or more requirements for a routing path through the network. The network controller is configured to generate a network configuration for the topology based on the flows, and send instructions to the nodes of the network for implementing the network configuration and transmitting client data.

Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to maintaining a snapshot of a multitier distributed file system. A snapshot directory volume of a directory volume can be created at least in part by copying, to the snapshot directory volume, metadata of the directory volume. Based on a file access request, it can be determined whether the file has not been snapshotted. If not, a snapshot file record of the file, and associated with the snapshot directory volume.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media described herein can be operable to facilitate transitioning a device from a first state to a second state. A switch described herein allows for the use of an electronic circuit to perform the toggle and persistence functions while simultaneously giving more flexibility to the industrial design and physical switch implementation. The switch allows this preserving of the state using only a toggle on a voltage and thus allowing for a hardware only solution. The switch described herein allows for the use of smaller and less complicated mechanical switches allowing for more compact industrial designs. The switch uses a programmable voltage reference as a 1 bit non-volatile memory cell that is programmed by means of a logic pulse to the device. This allows a software independent setting of the state of the privacy switch. This state will remain through power cycles.

Abstract: A method includes displaying and capturing image data containing an object and accessing a plurality of records related to objects, selecting a record related to the captured object, obtaining an identifier of a vendor of the object of the selected data record, combining the selected data record and the vendor identifier to form a search record, displaying, based on the search record, an augmented reality interface to receive a first interactive action for saving the search record, receiving the first interactive action, saving, in response to receiving the first interactive action, the search record into a searchable data structure, receiving a second interactive action, retrieving, in response to receiving the second interactive action, the search record from the searchable data structure, updating the vendor identifier based on the retrieved search record, and displaying information related to the search record.

Abstract: One embodiment can provide a system and method for determining joinder points on to-be-joined fabric pieces. During operation, the system captures an image comprising the to-be-joined fabric pieces; identifies to-be-joined edges, respectively, on the fabric pieces; for each edge, computes a curve that substantially fits the edge; and determines the joinder points on the edge based on the computed curve. Variance of distance between two consecutive joinder points on the edge is within a predetermined value.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for managing the quality of experience of delivery of content to end-point or user devices. In one embodiment, metrics data pertaining to network conditions being experienced by consumer devices attached to a managed network are monitored by a network entity. The monitored metrics are analyzed to determine if a consumer device is experiencing poor network conditions, such as network congestion. A consumer device that is identified as experiencing poor network conditions is reported to a content delivery network (CDN) entity responsible for providing IP-based content. The CDN entity adjusts content delivery files used by the consumer device to request particular IP-based content and to select a version of the content suitable for delivery over consumer device's existing network condition. The adjustment may include for instance removing formats deemed unsupportable for delivery over the existing network condition or identify a default format for the consumer device to use.

Individuals of the plurality of data objects identified in the queue are located on the distributed file system. The map is updated to identify the object store location for the individuals of the plurality of data objects identified in the queue.
