Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, computer program products, and the like, for correlating information associated with one networking transmission protocol, such as Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), to information associated with a different networking transmission protocol, such as Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv4). More specifically, when resolving an Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with a requesting device to a network, the system may base the resolved destination on one or more attributes of a known address to build a network mapping of the received IP address. In one specific example, an IPv6 address is received and associated with a known IPv4 address to map the network.

Abstract: Disclosure includes a system, method and architecture to monitor media content streams, e.g., streams of digital encoded media data such as without limitation audio and/or video data, from a number of media content streaming providers and identify media content items from those media content items being streamed by the media content streaming providers for inclusion in a personalized media content stream for a user. In a direct streaming approach, the media content items contained in a stream are available while each item is being streamed by the content provider. In a centralized streaming approach, media content items contained in each media content stream that is currently being streamed by content provider are available for a limited window of time, which can be dependent on buffer length.

Abstract: A system can receive a request for a transport service from a first device. The request can include a user identifier associated with a first user of the first device, contact information associated with a second user, and a pickup location information. The system can make a determination whether a user account associated with the second user is stored in a user database using the contact information in the request. Based on the determination, the system can select a messaging protocol to transmit data to a second device associated with the contact information. The system can transmit a message corresponding to the transport service to the second device using the selected messaging protocol.

Abstract: The described embodiments transfer an activity from a source electronic device to a companion electronic device. The source electronic device receives activity information describing an activity performed in a first application at the source electronic device, determines an activity identifier for the activity information, and broadcasts an activity advertisement comprising the activity identifier. Upon receiving the activity advertisement, the companion electronic device determines whether a second application that is associated with the first application is available at the companion electronic device. If the second application is available, the companion electronic device requests extended activity data from the source electronic device. The source electronic device responds by sending extended activity data from the first application to the companion electronic device.

Abstract: A more efficient network can be achieved by using a cost-benefit analysis determined by mobile device, wireless network, and server device functionality. The cost-benefit analysis can be used to determine whether SPTCP or MPTCP or any combination of the two is used. The mobile device can generate the cost-benefit analysis based on known and unknown device and network metrics and send the cost-benefit analysis to the server device. The server device can then comply with the cost-benefit analysis and then send requested web site data via SPTCP and/or MPTCP in accordance with the cost-benefit analysis.

Abstract: The described embodiments transfer an activity from a source electronic device to a companion electronic device. The source electronic device receives activity information describing an activity performed in a first application at the source electronic device and broadcasts an activity advertisement comprising an activity identifier for the activity. Upon receiving the activity advertisement, the companion electronic device determines whether a second application that is associated with the first application is available at the companion electronic device. If the second application is available, the companion electronic device acquires extended activity data from the source electronic device and uses the extended activity data to configure the second application and commence performing the activity with the second application at the companion electronic device. The source electronic device may also forward activity-related information (e.g.

Abstract: A method for accessing a demilitarized zone (DMZ) host in a local access network (LAN) includes: configuring a mapping relationship between public IP addresses obtained from a wide area network (WAN) side and private IP addresses of demilitarized zone hosts at a LAN side; after receiving an access request sent by a client at the WAN side, modifying a destination IP address in the access request to the private IP address of a corresponding demilitarized zone host at the LAN side according to the configured mapping relationship, and sending the modified access request to the demilitarized zone host; receiving a reply message returned by the demilitarized zone host, modifying a source IP address contained in the reply message to a public IP address of a client at the WAN side, and sending the modified reply message to the WAN side. The present document also discloses a corresponding apparatus.

Abstract: The management server causes an output section to output a startup date and time, shutdown date and time, minimum, maximum, and average values, and an occurrence count and durations of a predetermined event, for each of the operation time periods from the startup to shutdown in a unit of the remote monitoring terminal device, and causes the output section to output the startup date and time, shutdown date and time, and a movement locus of the mobile work vehicle or vessel based on the location information, for each of the operation time periods from the startup to shutdown in the unit of the remote monitoring terminal device.

Abstract: A media session is established between a first endpoint and a second endpoint via a communication network based on connectivity checks performed by the endpoints. Depending on whether or not at least one of a set of one or more reduced connectivity check criteria is determined to be met, a full or a reduced set of candidate pairs is generated, each candidate pair of whichever set is generated comprising a first network address available to the first endpoint and a second network address available to the second endpoint. Connectivity checks are not performed for any candidate pair in the full candidate pair set that is not also in the reduced candidate pair set if it is determined that at least one of the reduced connectivity check criteria is met.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods, and computer program products for monitoring, identifying and correlating changes to transient event data as a plurality of technology events are processed by a plurality of applications. The proctor module of the system is automatically triggered by addition of event data to transient memory locations associated with the plurality of applications. The proctor module is configured to capture the transient multiple-attribute event data, in real-time, before the data is dequeued. The technology event processing module is configured to format, log and index the captured data from the proctor module. The system then maps an event/record of formatted data associated with a first transient memory location with a second event to another event of formatted data from a second transient memory location, and subsequently analyzes the multi-attribute data to identify changes.
