Abstract: Systems for mitigating interference in a massive MIMO wireless network include an access node, a plurality of antennae communicatively coupled to the access node, and a processor communicatively coupled to the access node. The processor can be configured to perform operations including communicating with one or more wireless devices within a wireless sector utilizing one or more antennae from the plurality of antennae, and monitoring an interference level within the wireless sector. Upon the interference level meeting a threshold, the processor may be configured to utilize fewer antennae to communicate with the one or more wireless devices. Conversely, upon the interference level not meeting the threshold, the processor may be configured to utilize more antennae to communicate with the one or more wireless devices.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, device and computer program product for managing a service. The method comprises in response to processor credits for the service reaching threshold credits at a first time instant (t1), determining a second time instant when a first operation for the service is to be performed. The method further comprises determining, based on a set of historical processor credits between the first time instant and the second time instant, first processor credits related to a second set of time periods which is between the first time instant and second time instant.

Abstract: Techniques for providing lifecycle handling of faults associated with a storage appliance. The techniques can include recording information or details of one or more detected faults associated with a storage appliance in a fault database, analyzing the recorded fault information/details by an analytic tool, and determining whether to perform immediate recovery or defer recovery of the detected fault(s) based at least on a recommendation of the analytic tool. In this way, taking the storage appliance offline upon occurrence of a single fault can, for the most part, be avoided. In addition, because the detection of faults is not performed within a fault domain for a filesystem handling files for a single or limited number of volume families, a deduplication domain for the files of the filesystem is not restricted to the single or limited number of volume families.

Abstract: An electronic commerce (e-commerce) system may send advertisement emails to customers that are registered with the e-commerce system. The advertisement emails may include mailto hyperlinks. Each mailto hyperlink may be associated with a product that is being offered for sale, and each mailto hyperlink describes an email message that may be generated when that hyperlink is selected. When a mailto hyperlink is selected, the generated email message may include one or more parameters related to the product associated with the hyperlink, such as an identifier of the product. The generated email message may then be transmitted to the e-commerce system. The e-commerce system may receive the message and, based on the parameters in the received message, execute a transaction to purchase the identified product on behalf of the customer.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes the operation of segmenting a raw reference line into a plurality of reference line segments, including a first reference line segment, a second reference segment, and a third reference line segment in a sequential order, in response to receiving the raw reference line representing a route from a first location to a second location associated with an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV). The method further includes the operations of smoothing the first reference line segment and the third reference line segment using a Quadratic programming (QP) spline smoother; and smoothing the second reference line segment using a spiral smoother. Smoothed reference line segments from the plurality of reference line segments are connected to generate a smoothed reference line, which is to be used as a reference line of the route to control the ADV.

The user equipment is operable to: access first subscriber identity information stored in the first SIM device, the first subscriber identity information providing the user equipment access to a first wireless network in a network environment; access second subscriber identity information stored in the second SIM device, the second subscriber identity information providing the user equipment access to a second wireless network in the network environment; and via analysis of configuration settings in the second subscriber identity information, detect that the second network is assigned to support non-voice wireless communications between the user equipment and a remote network.

Abstract: A method for machine learning-based account manager virtual assistant staging includes receiving a message and a classification, generating a staging record, generating a status using staging rules, generating an order when the message classification is order and the status is complete, and transmitting the order. An account manager virtual assistant staging system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that cause the system to receive a message and a classification, generate a staging record, generate a status using staging rules, generate an order when the message classification is order and the status is complete, and transmit the order. A non-transitory computer readable medium contains program instructions that when executed, cause a computer to receive a message and a classification, generate a staging record, generate a status using staging rules, generate an order when the message classification is order and the status is complete, and transmit the order.

Abstract: Prioritization and quality of service control operations for any PiT replication operations. When replicating data from a production site to a replica site, the transmission of data is prioritized based on the perspective of a splitter and based on the perspective of an appliance, which may coordinate with multiple splitters. Quality is controlled by prioritizing which data is sent. The transmission may also perform compression when transmitting the data and may handle situations where available resources are scarce or unavailable.

Abstract: A technology is described for a repeater. The repeater can be configured to: receive an access level indicator from a spectrum access system (SAS) for a selected contested frequency band; identify one or more sub-bands available to the repeater in the selected contested frequency band based on the access level indicator; and activate the repeater for the one or more sub-bands when the access level permits repeater access.

Abstract: A method comprises: receiving, at a first device, a request to decrypt data encrypted with a symmetric key, the encrypted data stored on a memory device; retrieving shards of the symmetric key, the shards encrypted with public keys from a plurality of devices, wherein decryption of the data requires reconstituting the symmetric key from a threshold number of the shards; determining a priority to request decryption of the shards with private keys from the plurality of devices; requesting decryption by the plurality of devices of the shards in the determined priority until the threshold number of shards is reached; reconstituting the symmetric key from the decrypted shards; and decrypting the encrypted data with the symmetric key.
