  • Patent number: 11354464
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described herein emulating, by one or more servers on behalf of a mobile computing device, a cloud-based virtual machine. The cloud-based virtual machine may include a virtualized hardware component that provides, as virtual hardware input for a software application executing on the cloud-based virtual machine, either “genuine” virtual hardware input or “simulated” virtual hardware input. Genuine virtual hardware input may be based on an actual hardware signal received from a hardware component of the mobile computing device that corresponds to the virtualized hardware component. Simulated virtual hardware input may be generated independently of any hardware signal associated with the hardware component. Output of the software application may be interactively streamed to the mobile computing device.

  • Patent number: 11354191
    Abstract: Selectively distributing fragments of a data protection set in a geographically diverse data storage system is disclosed. The data protection set can comprise fewer fragments than there are zones comprising the geographically diverse data storage system, which can result in some zones not storing a fragment of the data protection set. Control over distribution of fragments of different data protection sets in the geographically diverse data storage system can mitigate or avoid unbalanced storage of the protection sets. The distribution can be controlled in accordance with a protection set distribution scheme (PSDS). A first PSDS can generate coding fragments from randomly select data fragments of all zones. A second PSDS can generate coding fragments from determined unique zone combinations. A third PSDS can generate coding fragments based on affinity values from an affinity matrix.
