Abstract: A method for load balancing application requests across a multi-cluster container orchestration system includes receiving a load-balancing configuration for a multi-cluster service managing access to a set of destination clusters hosting a software application deployed by a user. The multi-cluster service uses the load-balancing configuration to load balance application level traffic across the set of destination clusters. Each destination cluster includes at least one container executing the software application and a respective geographical region. The method also includes receiving an application level request directed toward the software application hosted across the destination clusters. The application level request is received from a client and includes a host name and a geographical location associated with the client. The method also includes routing the request to one of the clusters based on the geographical location of the request and the respective geographical locations of the clusters.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of deep packet inspection (DPI) in a network is provided. The method comprises collecting data packets comprising a number of traffic flows from a number of devices via a number of traffic taps and classifying each traffic flow according to data about network protocol layers of the packets comprising the traffic flow. Application layer metadata is extracted from the packets. Traffic flow classification data and the extracted metadata are ingested into a data cluster and normalized. The normalized classification data and extracted metadata is then correlated to other data sets.

Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein include light field displays configured to display primary autostereoscopic images and to simultaneously project (e.g., in real time, while displaying their own primary autostereoscopic images) light rays toward display devices (e.g., either reflective devices or cameras) to display secondary autostereoscopic images via the display devices. The light rays projected from the light field displays are controlled by a control system based at least in part on positional data (e.g., position, orientation, and/or movement) of the display devices, which may be determined by the control system based at least in part on detection of light rays that are reflected off the display devices.

Abstract: A container assembly includes an outer cover and a container. The front of the outer cover includes a minor front flap located on an interior surface thereof. The front of the container includes at least one minor exterior flap. The container is received in the open end of the outer cover, The container forms an aperture. The minor front flap of the outer cover and the minor exterior flap of the container are generally aligned in a plane in a closed position of the container assembly to prevent or inhibit opening thereof. The outer cover initially moves with respect to the container by pushing the front of the container and moving the outer cover such that the minor front flap of the outer cover clears the minor exterior flap of the container allowing the container assembly to be moved from the closed position to an open position.

The explosive device additionally includes explosive material that has been deposited on the surface of the substrate in the vacuum chamber by way of physical vapor deposition (PVD), wherein the explosive material is deposited on the portion of the surface of the substrate subsequent to the surface energy of the portion of the surface of the substrate being modified from the first surface energy to the second surface energy.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed towards enhanced systems and methods for applying underfill (UF) material to fill a gap between electrically coupled semiconductor devices in an integrated device. In some embodiments, uncured UF material may be applied to one edge of the gap, and capillary flow may be employed to distribute the uncured UF material into a first portion of the gap. To fill a second portion of the gap, accelerated motion may be employed. For example, the integrated device may be affixed to a centrifuge, and the centrifuge can be used to spin the integrated device to spread the uncured UF material further into the gap. In some embodiments, the accelerated motion may be employed to distribute the uncured UF material substantially uniformly within the gap. Once the uncured UF material has been spread out, one or more curing processes may be employed to cure the sandwiched UF material.

Abstract: A connection management resource tracks multiple instances of a mobile communication device wirelessly connecting to each of multiple wireless access points at different times to access a remote network. Based on the tracking, the connection management resource determines a set of the multiple wireless access points that reside in a first geographical region. The connection management resource then assigns a selected wireless access point such as a first wireless access point from the set as being a default wireless access point in which to provide the mobile communication device wireless connectivity to the remote network. In one situation, the connection management resource assigns the first wireless access point as the default wireless access point in response to detecting that the mobile communication device most frequently, amongst the multiple instances, establishes wireless connectivity with the first wireless access point to access the remote network.

Abstract: Circuits and processes for locking a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) at a high frequency signal are described. A circuit may include an adjustable current converter (ACC), coupled at an input terminal to a power source, operable to output a control signal (VC) at an output terminal. A first switch may be coupled to the ACC and to the VCO. The VCO, when in an “ON” state, receives the control signal and outputs a high frequency signal (VHF). A digital filter may be coupled to the VCO and operable to receive the VHF. Based on the VHF, the digital filter generates a data signal having a data value. The circuit may also include a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) operable to receive the data signal and, based on the data value, output an adjustment signal to the ACC. The ACC may adjust the control signal based on the adjustment signal received from the DAC.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a data processing apparatus and a data processing method that enable correct clock synchronization by use of clock information. The data processing apparatus receives a digital broadcast signal so as to process content included in the digital broadcast signal and clock information also included therein for use in presentation synchronization on the content and sends via a transmission path the processed content and clock information to another data processing apparatus that presents the received content. On the other hand, the another data processing apparatus receives via the transmission path the content and clock information sent from the data processing apparatus so as to process presentation synchronization on the received content on the basis of the received clock information. The present technology is applicable to data processing apparatuses configured to process content, for example.

Abstract: A communication management resource receives notification of an incoming communication (such as from a calling party) directed to a mobile communication device in a wireless network environment. In response to receiving the notification, the communication management resource predicts a current location of the mobile communication device based on a prior history of tracking the mobile communication device and a time of receiving the call alert. The communication management resource initiates wireless transmission of the call alert in a wireless signal from a first wireless base station at the predicted current location.
