Abstract: An AP sets up a data tunnel to a remote network and monitors a remote DHCP session between a client device and a remote DHCP server in the remote network. The remote DHCP server assigns a remote IP address to the client device, and communication between the client device and the remote network is based on the remote IP address. In response to determining completion of the remote DHCP session, the AP initializes a local DHCP session with a local DHCP server in a local network to obtain a local IP address for the client device. Communication between the client device and the local network is based on the local IP address. In response to detecting the client device roaming from the AP to a target AP, the AP forwards the remote and local IP addresses and session data of active sessions on the client device to the target AP.

Abstract: A conference system enables a communication session between two or more participants. During the communication session, a participant device displays a visual code that is scanned by the device in which the identity is unknown. Based on the scan of the visual code, the conference system transfers the communication session such that it is continued between the device in which the identity is unknown and the one or more devices of the remaining participants of the conference.

Abstract: A network function execution intermediary obtains a result of execution of a set of network functions on a particular packet directed to a service from a client program running at a first host. Using the result, the packet is delivered to a request handler of the service, running at a second host; the path used for delivering the particular packet includes the network function execution intermediary. A networking manager of the first host obtains a rule for determining results of the set of network functions with respect to additional packets directed from the client program to the service. The networking manager causes, using the rule, another packet originating at the client program to be delivered to the request handler via a different path which does not include the network function execution intermediary.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for enabling real-time conversational dialog among a large population of networked human users while facilitating convergence on groupwise decisions, insight extraction, and solutions, and amplifying collective intelligence. A plurality of computing devices associated with members of a population of participants is provided, wherein the plurality of computing devices is networked via a computer network and in communication with a central server. In some cases, the central server divides the population into a plurality of subgroups and enables an LLM-powered conversational surrogate agent associated with each subgroup. The conversational surrogate agent is configured to repeatedly observe a conversation among members of its assigned subgroup and store content of the conversation to extract insights from the conversation at appropriate intervals.

Abstract: This application relates to apparatus and methods for identifying and remediating poor user experiences on computing devices. In some examples, a user speed determination device is configured to receive a content delivery request for delivery of content to a user device. The computing is also configured to obtain user identification data, obtain user device data and determine a user device speed based on the user identification data and the user device data. The computing device then sends a user device speed indicator to a content delivery device to cause the content delivery device to deliver remediated content to the user device when the user device speed is determined to be less than a predetermined speed threshold. The user identification data can include an IP address and the user device data can include user agent data, user connection data and user resource timing data.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein provide a mechanism for determining that a configuration status of a compliant device is too far out-of-date, and subsequently bridging the configuration status of the compliant device to the up-to-date configuration data and instructions in response. In various implementations, determination of the configuration status of the compliant device is possible using a single request from the compliant device, which in turn reduces the amount of network traffic and utilization of network resources needed to update the compliant device with the up-to-date configuration data and instructions.
