Further, the server and simulator are specific to a certain country or location to act as users in those locations.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing network devices include performing clustering operations for network devices based on attributes of the network devices. By comparing the results of subsequent clustering operations, changes in network device attributes can be readily identified and any network devices for which attributes have changed may be subject to further investigation or remedial action (e.g., blocking traffic to/from the network device). Clustering may also be used to conduct an inventory of network devices by identifying groups of network devices that have similar attributes.

Abstract: The method and system of the present invention provides Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH)-based Adaptive Rich Media Delivery Solution (DASH-ARM) which performs adaptive delivery of mulsemedia content by improving the perceived QoE levels which improves user's sense of reality. In its dynamic adjustment of multiple sensorial content characteristics, DASH-ARM performs a trade-off between video quality and presence of diverse other sensorial components which include components such as haptic, olfaction and wind. This trade-off relies on the fact that the presence of other sensorial components has a masking effect on potential audio/video quality variations. DASH-ARM is complemented by an adaptive multi-sensory media stream (mulsemedia) which synchronizes at the user device, where the multimedia content and mulsemedia comprises diverse sensorial stimuli.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a server and a method for service matching and resource matching. The server stores a first resource available information and a second resource available information. The server receives a user request from a user device and determines a resource matching information according to the first resource available information and the second resource available information in response to the user request. The server transmits the resource matching information to the user device.

Abstract: A computer-automated method, computer system and computer program for managing resources in applications. The resources are managed in groups, each group having a unique group name which is dynamically resolvable to an address specific to a particular application. The resources may be application program interfaces object instances or data sources, for example. When a resource placement request is received to place a resource in a particular application with an associated address, the resource is assigned to a group and given a unique resource identifier which combines with the group name to form a unique endpoint for the resource. Subsequently, in response to detection of a resource performance bottleneck, or in response to an external request, a resource is moved to another application by reassigning its group name to the second address, thereby moving all resources in that group to the other application.

Abstract: A resource acquiring method relates to the field of machine-to-machine communications (M2M) technologies, where the method is used by a consumer application to acquire a producer data resource generated by a producer application, and includes receiving a request message that is used to acquire the producer data resource and that is sent by the consumer application, where the request message carries indication information that is used to instruct to update the producer data resource and return an updated producer data resource, acquiring current moment data from the producer application, updating the producer data resource using the current moment data, and returning the updated producer data resource to the consumer application. Hence, a problem of mismatching between data generated by the producer application and data used by the consumer application is resolved.

Any device or network location where the data is available may be selected as a source of the data. Any device where the data is unavailable may be sent the data from one or more sources. Once received, the data may be stored to enable access by an application.
