Next, detecting the application by selection of user to estimate the risk level of the application which has vulnerabilities or malicious behaviors and then correspondingly generating a detection result. Therefore, the method, the electronic device, and the user interface for on-demand detecting the malware can detect the risk level of the application which has vulnerabilities or malicious behaviors before getting virus pattern of the variant or new malware.

Abstract: Technologies are presented for data deduplication that operates at relatively high throughput and with relatively less storage space than conventional techniques. Building upon content-dependent chunking (CDC) using Rabin fingerprints, data may be fingerprinted and stored in variable-size chunks. In some examples, data may be chunked on multiple levels, for example, two levels, variable size large chunks in the first level and fixed-size sub-chunks in the second level, in order to prevent sub-chunks common to two or more data chunks from not being deduplicated. For example, at a first level, a CDC algorithm may be employed to fingerprint and chunk data in content-dependent sizes (variable sizes), and at a second level the CDC chunks may be sliced into small fixed-size chunks. The sliced CDC chunks may then be used for deduplication.

Abstract: A method and apparatus, such as implemented by software code on a mobile device, to estimate a location and a traveling distance by leveraging lower-power inertial sensors embedded in the mobile device as a supplement to the device's GPS. To minimize the negative impact of sensor noises, the invention exploits intermittent strong GPS signals and uses linear regression to build a prediction model which is based on a trace estimated from inertial sensors and the one computed from the GPS. Additionally or alternatively, the invention can utilize landmarks (e.g., bridges, traffic lights, etc.) detected automatically and/or special driving patterns (e.g., turning, uphill, and downhill) from inertial sensory data to improve the localization accuracy when the GPS signal is weak.
