Abstract: A system includes a plurality of SIP servers that are configured and arranged to provide services for a respective set of endpoints. A monitor server having at least one processor circuit receives connectivity status of the respective set of endpoint devices based on registration status provided by the endpoints to the SIP servers. Based upon the received connectivity status, endpoints having connectivity problems are parsed into subgroups. Based upon the parsed endpoints, potential problem sources for the connectivity problems of the parsed endpoints are identified. A monitor device having at LAN interface circuit connected to the LAN and at least one processor circuit receives the command from the monitor server and performs a diagnostic test on the LAN. Results from the at least one diagnostic test are provided to the monitor server.

Abstract: Provided are systems, methods, and media for identifying and purging unwanted contacts. An example method includes monitoring electronic group communication that is conducted between two or more people and building a persona profile for a person of the electronic group communication during a first period of time based, at least in part, on extracting during the first period of time, from the monitored electronic group communication, behavior data associated with a first contact number. The method includes detecting, during a second period of time, whether the person associated with the first contact number has changed. The method includes transmitting an alert to at least one person of the two or more people indicating that the person associated with the first contact number has changed.

Abstract: Techniques to dynamically discover and manage page fragments, e.g., to provide a dynamic application user interface, are disclosed. In various embodiments, an indication to add a fragment dynamically to a current application page is received. The fragment to be added is determined, in response to the indication, and added dynamically to the current application page.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for performing steps to cause encoded information to be stored at a client device during a first network session between a server and the client device. To cause encoded information to be stored at a client device, the server first determines a set of network resource requests that encode the information. These network resource requests may include requests for one or more specific URLs and/or requests for one or more files. The server then causes the client device to initiate the network resource requests. The server may cause this initiation by, for example, redirecting the client device to the network resources. The client device initiating the network resource requests causes data representative of the network resource requests to be stored at the client device.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for event processing in background services. One example method includes receiving a request to create a daemon session, the request including at least one parameter. The session is created, including storing the at least one parameter in a memory storage that is configured to survive a restart of the session. A set of messages is received for the session. The messages are stored in a queue that is configured to survive a restart of the session. A determination is made that the session is to be restarted. A restart of the session is initiated, including providing the at least one parameter to the session during the restart of the daemon session and providing unprocessed messages to the session after the session has been restarted, to enable the session to process the unprocessed messages.

Abstract: A method that connects a User Equipment (UE) to an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network through a web browser for a Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) service is provided. The method, and a UE adapted to the method, downloads a web app for a WebRTC service and connects to an IMS network through a WebRTC client. The UE connects to the IMS network and is registered in the IMS network in such a way as to use a Universal Resource Locator (URL) of an enhanced Proxy-Call Session Control Function (eP-CSCF) obtained by establishing a Packet Data Network (PDN) connection of the UE through a web browser in the process of obtaining a URL of the eP-CSCF, or the obtained URL of an eP-CSCF to which the WebRTC client can connect by transmitting Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) information of a network to which the UE is connected to a WebRTC Web Server Function (WWSF). Therefore, the UE can easily use WebRTC services.

Abstract: Distributed storage systems, devices, and associated methods of data replication are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a server in a distributed storage system is configured to write, with an RDMA enabled NIC, a block of data from a memory of the server to a memory at another server via an RDMA network. Upon completion of writing the block of data to the another server, the server can also send metadata representing a memory location and a data size of the written block of data in the memory of the another server via the RDMA network. The sent metadata is to be written into a memory location containing data representing a memory descriptor that is a part of a data structure representing a pre-posted work request configured to write a copy of the block of data from the another server to an additional server via the RDMA network.

Abstract: An example method is performed by a rich communications services (RCS) server. The RCS server maintains metadata and RCS messages associated with a message thread, where the message thread provides open group chat (OGC) communications among a plurality of participants. The RCS server receives a lock request from a participant of the message thread to lock the message thread and in response thereto modifies the metadata associated with the message thread to indicate that the message thread is locked. A request to join the message thread is then received by the RCS server, where the request is rejected in response to the RCS server determining that the metadata associated with the message thread indicates that the message thread is locked.

An image sensor provides a wide field of view which can be segmented on the mobile device to enable specific areas to be viewed enabling the user to view the area and be alerted when an event occurs based upon a rules based configuration.

Abstract: Medical devices and other modules configured in local computing environments can be detected, remotely managed, and integrated with a web application hosted on a server using standard communication protocols and a local agent. Such modules can include hardware devices, such as electrocardiograph (ECG) machines, centrifuges and the like, and/or software modules, such as Electronic Medical Records (EMR). The modules can be detected by a web browser receiving input which can be configured to be initiated by a sensor and/or Application Program Interface (API). The web browser, in turn, can communicate with the remote server for approval of the module. Upon approval, the server can establish a WebSocket communication channel through the browser to an agent executing in the local environment. The server can then push a device profile and/or commands to the agent, including a command to execute source code, and the agent, in turn, can collect data from, and/or execute commands with respect to, the module.
