Abstract: In a method for configuring and managing a Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) network, a network packet is regularly captured and parameters are extracted. The parameters are submitted to a distributed learning model for matching an application according to the parameters, and a network requirement of the application is obtained. Such obtained network requirements are uploaded to a centralized network configuration (CNC) through a message transmission protocol, and a configuration of the network requirement is calculated through the CNC. The configuration calculated by the CNC is received and delivered to a TSN switch, causing the TSN switch to dynamically update the network configuration accordingly.

Abstract: An exemplary method is disclosed that facilitate the on-demand creation of an exemplary instrumented network device in a cloud infrastructure, remote server, evaluation platform, or customized testing server and to form a stack between the instrumented network device as a debug network device and a target network device. The control plane of the target network device then switches over, via a switchover operation, to the control plane of the debug network device, while the data-plane of the target network device continues to operate. Once switched over, the instrumentation (e.g., hardware or software) of the control plane or debug network device facilitates the debug, optimization, profile, and/or recovery of the physical network device, even in a live network.

Abstract: A system for secure management of licensing and distributing virtual network functions (VNF) is provided. The system includes a VNF license manager, a VNF repository, and a VNF license database. The VNF license manager is in communication with the VNF repository and the VNF license database. The VNF license manager is programmed to receive a request for access to a first VNF from a virtual network. The virtual network is configured to execute the first VNF. The VNF license manager is also programmed to determine if the virtual network may access the first VNF based on one or more policies associated with the first VNF. If the virtual network may access the first VNF, the VNF license manager is programmed to retrieve the first VNF from the VNF repository and transmit the first VNF to the virtual network.

Abstract: A service monitoring system executing on one or more processors may have operations that are determined by control information. Control over the operation of the service monitoring system can be exerted through the use of a graphical interface. The graphical interface may present the control information of a new or existing correlation search definition for user interaction. The service monitoring system may maintain a data store of key performance indicator (KPI) data, where a KPI value in the data store is produced by a KPI-defining search query that derives the value from machine data associated with one or more entities that perform a monitored service. A correlation search definition of the service monitoring system determines how a search of the KPI data is conducted, how its data is evaluated to determine whether a triggering condition has been met, and, if so, determines what triggered action is to be initiated.

A determination is made of an element in the information space corresponding to the input of the higher order action. A determination is made of an action of in the domain of the question having parameters matching the action parameters. The determined element is input to the determined action to produce output. The information space of the syntax tree is annotated with the output from the higher order action to use to provide an answer to the question.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein relate to the management of compatibility and support issues in a networked resource environment. An analyzer service can be used to attempt to identify potential or existing compatibility and other such issues in the environment, as may occur when updating to a new communication protocol or data standard. Such a service can analyze an environment at multiple levels, such as at an infrastructure, services, operating system, and/or code level. For any identified issue, the service can provide information about the issue, as well as one or more recommendations for remediation where available. For at least certain types of issues where permitted, the service can perform a remediation, such as to remove hard-coded dependencies or perform pending software updates. Compatibility monitoring can also be performed over time to ensure continued compatibility, including for additions or modifications in the environment.

Abstract: In an approach to dynamic mute control for web conferencing, one or more computer processors detect a start of a collaborative meeting. One or more computer processors receive a request to enable a dynamic mute feature for a microphone associated with a device of a user. One or more computer processors mute the microphone. One or more computer processors monitor the collaborative meeting to derive context. One or more computer processors determine a request for the user to participate in the collaborative meeting. One or more computer processors calculate an unmute confidence score based on the derived context.

Abstract: A method performed by a node (111) supporting operation on a Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), but incapable of supporting operation on a Domain Name System (DNS) protocol. The node (111) encodes (402) a DNS query into a first message (601, 701), which has a format supported by the CoAP. The DNS query is mapped to the CoAP format of the first message (601, 701) based on a mapping scheme. The node (111) then initiates sending (403) the first message (601, 701) to another node (112) operating in the communications network (100). The another node (112) supports operation on the CoAP and on the DNS protocol. The node (111) finally receives (404) a second message (620, 706) from the another node (112), which has the format supported by the CoAP. The second message (620, 706) comprises the DNS response to the sent DNS query. The DNS response is mapped to the CoAP format of the second message (620, 706) based on the mapping scheme.

The processor packages the data from the medical device into at least one packet. The processor communicates with one of the first and second modules to communicate one or more packets over one of the first and second communications channels. The failsafe bus signals from the hub to the medical device when a fatal-error fault condition of the hub has occurred. The alarm wire bus signals from the hub to the medical device when an alarm condition of the hub has occurred to cause the medical device to execute at least one mitigation.

Abstract: A method for providing a dormant state for content management servers is provided. Client devices are allowed to conduct transactions with servers when the servers are active. However, in a dormant state, the servers are not allowed to accept new transactions. Thus, by utilizing the dormant state, software upgrades can be made to one server at a time. Alternatively, all servers can be taken down for major upgrades, with the servers still operated in a read-only mode based on a file image from a point in time just prior to the shutdown. When the upgrade is completed, the servers can be returned to the active state.

An adapter device includes a controller to control the operation of the electrical device. Upon determining that the device information with respect to the electrical device satisfies the condition indicated by the event information, the service provider causes the controller to control the electrical device to perform the operation indicated by the action information.
