Abstract: Examples of the disclosure enable an availability of a resource to be discovered across regions. In some examples, a template is received from a client device. The template includes a plurality of parameters associated with a plurality of products. Based on a client location associated with the client device, a resource is identified, and, based on a first parameter, it is determined whether the identified resource is associated with the product. In response to determining that the resource is associated with the product, a feature associated with the resource is identified, and it is determined whether the identified feature satisfies the first parameter. In response to determining that the feature satisfies the first parameter, data associated with the resource is transmitted to the client device for presentation to a user. Aspects of the disclosure enable a computing device to manage one or more resources.

Abstract: An algorithm is described that informs a user about the relationship between ongoing measurements and goals for those measurements. For example, it informs a diabetic user whether his blood glucose is outside preset limits. The purpose of the algorithm is to influence the user's behavior so that the measured parameters return to the desired normal range. The algorithm accomplishes this in the following innovative fashion: first, it employs a non-deterministic decision making procedure to select the method of communication. The purpose is to preserve an element of surprise and keep the user interested in the message being delivered. Second, the algorithm varies the emphasis of the message and the time of transmission again to avoid a monotonous sequence of communications. Third, the algorithm is adaptive and adjusts its decision making based on the success or failure of different modalities in affecting the user's behavior.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a method for high volume logging for large scale network address translation. A first device intermediary to a plurality of clients and a plurality of database servers allocates a portion of memory to each packet engine in a plurality of packet engines executing on a respective core of a plurality of cores of the first device. The first device establishes large scale network address translation (LSN) for the plurality of clients, the first device logging LSN information of sessions to a corresponding logging buffer established in a respective packet engine's portion of memory. The first device identifies, for a LSN session, a packet engine from the plurality of packet engines to log the information for the LSN session and stores information of the LSN session to the logging buffer in the packet engine's portion of memory.

Abstract: A system for collecting and analyzing agricultural data. A team of crop scouts performs a scouting operation in a farm, each crop scout interacting with a mobile device. The mobile device provides a navigation display guiding the scout along a route, from one data collection point to the next. At each data collection point, the crop scout makes observations and measurements and inputs the corresponding data into the mobile device. A control operator at a central location monitors the progress of the scouting operation and revises the routes or locations of data collection points when appropriate, based on data received during the scouting operation. A cloud service analyzes the data and provides recommendations to a farm operator.

Abstract: A global context object may be used to create context affinity between two or more commands executed at a remote computer. A local computer may access a connection pool to determine if a runspace exists for a particular context on the remote computer in which the command is to be executed. If the runspace does not exist in the connection pool, the local computer may create a runspace associated with a particular context and add the runspace to the connection pool. The local computer may receive result data of executed commands from a remote computer and store the result data for use by the global context object to create context affinity between two or more commands executed at the remote computer.
